IF I WIN AMERICA’S GOT TALENT, IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE UNFAIR – PLANE CRASH SURVIVOR KECHI OKWUCHI SAYS

Sosoliso plane crash survivor and singer, Kechi Okwuchi who is currently in the Semi-Finals of the America’s Got Talent 2017 competition had an interactive session with her followers on Instagram yesterday and one of the questions she was asked was if she feels she would win the competition.

The 27-year-old singer says as much as she would like to win, she thinks if she wins ,it would be a little unfair to the other great talents on the show because she doesn’t want people to vote for her based on her story. She, however, said she would just allow God’s plan for her in the competition to follow through

MEET THE 14 YEAR OLD BOY WHO GRADUATED FROM TEXAS UNIVERSITY

A 14-year-old physics major, Carson Huey-You, has become the youngest person ever to graduate from Texas Christian University. Huey-You was among more than 2,000 students getting degrees Saturday at the Fort Worth school.
 

He started at Texas Christian University (TCU) in 2013 when he was 11 and graduated last Saturday .

Huey-You also has minors in Chinese and math.

Huey-You said his favorite thing about college was getting to learn things he never thought about, things he never knew existed and things he might not even think about thinking about. Adding that he's learned how to deal with "some real hard classes" and get over the disappointment of a poor score on a test.

AN INSPIRATIONAL POEM TITLED STAYING POWER

STAYING POWER

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high,

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,

As everyone one of us sometimes learns.

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won had he stuck it out.

Don’t give up though the pace seems slow

You may succeed with another blow.

Success is failure turned inside out

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell just how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far.

So stick to the fight when your hardest hit—

It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.

IF BY RUDYARD KIPLING

IF

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you.

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you

But make allowance for their doubting too.

If you can wait and not be tired of waiting

Or being lied upon, don’t deal in lies.

Or being hated, don’t give way to hating.

And yet don’t look too good nor talk too wise.

If you can dream- and not make dreams your master.

If you think- and not make thoughts you aim

If you can meet with triumph and Disaster

And treat these imposter the same.

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve broken

And stoop and build them up with worn-out tools.

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch and toss

And lose and start again at your beginning

And never breathe a word about your loss.

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the will which says to them “Hold on”

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue

Or walk with kings- nor lose the common touch

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you.

If all men count with you, but none too much.

If you fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run.

Yours is the Earth ad everything that’s in it.

And – which is more- you’ll be a Man, my son!

                                                                                                            Rudyard Kipling

INSPIRATION OF THE WEEK....

IF YOU THINK.....

If you think you are beaten you are.

If you think you dare not, you don’t!

If you like to win, but think you can’t,

It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

If you think you will lose you are lost;

For out of the world we find

Success begins with a fellow’s will;

It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are,

You have gone to think high to rise,

You've got to be sure of yourself before,

You can ever win a prize.

Life battle don’t always go

To the stronger and faster man,

But sooner or later the man who wins,

Is the man who thinks he can.......
