LIFE SERIES- Season 1, Episode 1......Life as a Movement

One of the characteristics of a living thing is MOVEMENT, yes, Movement can be defined as "the act of moving", You need to move from one place to another in other to achieve a movement. There are two ways a thing or person can move,
1. Active movement
2. Passive movement

This week we shall be discussing about Active  movement in relationship with life, i.e, how do we say that life is actively moving....


ACTIVE MOVEMENT- This is the most common type of movement, it involves a deliberate act of moving from one place to another. It is active because the "syndicate" needs to make a conscious decision to move.  Most organisms move from one place to another, usually during active movement there is need for a means of movement, either Legs as in Humans and animals, roots in plants or flagella in some microorganism.


As humans, we move with our legs, taking a bike, boarding a taxi or taking a walk is with the use of the legs, i am yet to see a complete human walking with is hands or head, well , maybe if i was in another planet or if i was drunk, but normally, we all walk with our legs. The most important thing is wherever we are going to, we consciously make decisions to go there.

Now, how is life a movement, yeah, you guess is correct, from the race we all ran when our fathers released us (sperm) into the womb of our parents, through the female virginal, we have to move actively to the fertile eggs or ova of our mothers, and eventually we kicked-off the gestation period of nine (9) months for normal babies, and 5-7 months for ........(na you talk am o.lols). The gospel truth is that in LIFE you must never stop moving. From the period you were in you mothers womb till when you were introduced to planet Earth an named, you journey kicked off (via Movement).

Life is indeed not complete without movement, just imagine if a child refused to cry when he/she was born, imagine if the baby refused to move his lips or his legs or his hands, maybe, the Doctor if not careful may pronounce him dead. Movement is crucial as a sign that one is living. Its important for a child to Crawl when its time or walk when its time, less they fear he may be crippled or with polio, (laughs). Even in education, you need to movement, from the Nursery and primary school, to the highest level an educational system can offer, you need to keep moving, non-stop o. Eventually, when you start working in a firm, you need to move, that's life for you, locate opportunities to promote and get promoted.

Even in relationships, you need to tell a girl how you feel, and instead of doing so, you open your mouth like "fish wey dem catch for 3rd mainland bridge", Oga mi, MOVE and do the needful to get you dream girl. Or you find yourself in an abusive relationship, stop complaining my dear, MOVE, or you that time whose girl friend is also know as "Kesiah", My dear, MOVE. Just don't get stuck like a stagnant water, remember its only in a stagnant water that Mosquitoes flourish best, so when you become stagnant you will either find the will, guts, courage to MOVE or end up housing Mosquitoes.

I can write a whole book on the inter-relationship between LIFE and MOVEMENT, but i am gonna stop here for now, SO THAT I CAN MOVE............. See for soon for the second episode of this fist season of the LIFE series............
