Lalo Kebba Drammeh paraphrased

"Mo ku teh dunia. Mo kendeh kuwo leh beh dunia." - Lalo Kebba Drammeh. Meaning: the world's not deficient in people; the world's just wanting in good people.

By that I guess good people are not equal to the purpose, as in more troublemakers than troubleshooters, more finger pointers than responsibility takers, more knowledge than wisdom, more takers than givers, more dream killers than hope givers, more idle talkers and alarmists than factual news reporters, more imitators and duplicators than originators, more fictions than facts, more disintegrators than integrators, more miserabilists than believers in hope, more ego-serving competitors than contributors, and on here more of an insane asylum than an online community, etc. Wow, sounds like the world's messed up already. Anyways, may we know the good ones, may we be them, may we raise them.
