First times

My good buddy King Shash always likes to say, there is always something special about first times. First love, first drink, first smoke............. Well this is the first post of my first attempt at blogging and i must say it feels kinda special. So why am i doing this? Ok! two days ago i attended barcamp kumasi and there was a breakout session on creative writing and blogging and i was particularly inspired by @osarpong and @D41XY  who facilitated the session. So i decided to go for it and so here i am. Just write, they both kept saying and i thought to myself, how difficult could it be, after all i go on and on about issues all the time. Bureaucracy, complacency, mediocrity, hypocrisy...list goes on and on. On the other hand there are so many good things about my motherland that excite me and i love to talk about them as well. I have always been an optimist and my optimism has grown exponentially  in the last few years. I have friends who are genius at what they do, i've met great young minds who are pushing the frontiers of creativity with the very little they've got, basically i see a movement of young men and women, hungry for change, and i know that change is going to come in the very near future. So of course, i have a lot to write about and this is where i'm going to write it all.
