Happy Independence Day sweet land of Liberty (Liberia)
Mama Liberia, you allowed us declared your innocent, beautiful,
naturally rich and fruitful surface an independent state 170 years ago. You
have endure pain for us to enjoy, you in return inflicted Freedom and honored
to our existence. You cry in silence and disappointment whenever we ungratefully
call you a worthless nation. You deserve better Liberia. You are resilient and strong, you have taught
us to stand up, and to care for strangers. 170 years ago, you stood up as the
first Black African Country in the continent of Africa. Mama, you gave us the
chance to make history. Countries in Africa consulted you for independence; you
became the light in the darkness in Africa. Through you, we guided Africans in
the formation of the Organization of African Union (OAU) now African Union
(AU).
Forgive us mama Liberia because among us thieves, rapist,
greedy-persons, child rights abusers, violent and inconsistent individuals have
developed; they’ve chosen to corrupt and imprison your integrity. They have
printed this nation black to outsiders. Our systems doesn’t work because they
have polluted and corrupted the system with truncated mentalities. You gave us
a new-fangled land in 1822 but we have made the systems work dirty. Few people
have decided to steal while majority of our people especially Liberian children
live in extreme poverty.
Mama Liberia, you depend on us to look better, work better,
produce better and to help other least develop countries shine. Sorry, we have
placed you among the poorest countries in the world; you deserves better. The
future (Children) deserves better. Things must change. Our attitude towards
Liberia’s development must switched to being patriotic and nationalist. In all
we do, Liberia must come first.
Liberia cannot develop by itself because it is just an
inorganic gadget and a piece of land. Liberia depend on you and me to look
better, grind better, harvest better and to elevate our poor people from
poverty to prosperity. Liberia will rise again only if we collectively and
consciously work together for positive change.
For what I have noticed since I was a Kid, Liberia is such a
kind, strong, and beautiful land. People can easily live here than any other
African country. Liberia natural resources and Beauty attracts Billions. There
are unlimited opportunities and possibilities in Liberia. Talents are in
Liberia; Liberians are gifted as well.
Sweet Liberia, thank you. Today, I celebrate you. I am
wholeheartedly grateful for the home you’ve given me. We celebrate you for a
reason; we will always celebrate your existence and resilience.
Happy 170th Birth anniversary Sweet
mama Liberia.
