Hey, I am sharing with you with this great post I got on The Hub.
Rest

Do you know what the worst advice is?

Give it your best

What is your best?

What if there is no limit?

What if you don't know

What is best enough?

What if you gave it all

And in turn, you fall

What if you can't

Give at all

What if you are done

And all you want is to be

Basking in

The sun

Even the sun becomes too

Much

I like who I am

Just as I am

Without having to

Prove anything

Just live with

The blessing

With the talent

I have been given

You know more

Is less

It is not happiness

We look for

We are just

Searching for 'more'

Which is just an illusion

We lose is as soon as we

Grasp it

So we chase meanings

In nothings

Values in outside things

No, I am not going to

Give it all

Because I can not risk

my soul

... They love my darkness, I make them heartless
And in return they have become my martyrs
I’ve been in the poem of many a poet
And I reside in the art of many a artist
Some of your smartest have tried to articulate
My whole part in this
But they’re fruitless in their harvesting
The dro grows from my footsteps
I’m the one that they follow
I am the one that they march with
Through the back alleys and the black markets
The Oval offices, crack-houses, and apartments
Through the mazes of the queens
The pages of the sages and the chambers of the kings
Through the veinses of the fiends
A paper chaser’s pager, yo, I’m famous on the scene
One of the oldest, most ancientest things
Speak every single language on the planet, y'kna mean?
I am the American dream
The rape of Africa, the undying machine
The overpriced medicine, the murderous regime
. . .

... Homicide's illegal and death is the penalty
What justifies the homicide, when he dies?
In his own iniquity it's the
Master of the Mantis Rapture comin' at cha
We have an APB on an MC Killer
Looks like the work of a Master
Evidence indicates that's it's stature
Merciless like a terrorist hard to capture
The flow, changes like a chameleon
Plays like a friend, and stabs you like a dagger
This technique attacks the immune system
Disguised like a lie paralyzin' the victim
You scream, as it enters your bloodstream ...

. . . በ ገነት ላይ ኖሬ ባሪያህ ከምሆንስ
እመርጣለሁ መቼስ ሴጣኑን ገዝቼ
ከ ሲኦል ላይ መንገስ
እንኳን ወገንና
አጋንንቱን እንኳ በ ገንዘብም አልሸጥ
እንኳን ሀገርና
የ እሣት መሬቱን አንድ ክንድም አልገምስ
ማነው ታዲያ ቅዱስ
ልቤን ከፍተህ ብታይ
ኮከብ እንደሌለው እንደ ሌሊት ሰማይ
ድቅድቅ ጨለማ ነው ሰው ያልደረሰበት
በጥልቅ ዋሻ ያለ የከሰልም ድንጋይ
ለኳሽም አልፈልግ
እራሴን ገጭቼ ያኔ የነደድኩ ለት
ታይቶ ማይታወቅ የአለም ሰደድ እሣት
እግዜር እንኳ መጥቶ
የ ኖህ ግዜን ውሃ ደግሞ ቢያፈስላት
እቺ ምድርም አትችለኝ
አንተም ቢሆን አታመልጠኝ
ከያዝኩት የስም ዝርዝር ላይ
ቀድመህም የምትታየኝ

Hello,
COVID-19 pandemic has had an implication on all aspects of life for the citizens of the world. In Ethiopia this pandemic and the actions necessary to contain it, have had direct impact on production enjoyment and exchange of the creative sector. In an effort to contribute to the emergency, relief, and recovery measures, British Council Ethiopia in partnership with The Urban Center and HEVA Fund would like to collect information from as many creative sector practitioners that have been affected during this difficult period. For this reason, we have created a survey in two languages.

If you are working in the creative sector, either as an independent practitioner or as a company, we want you to select the language that you feel comfortable with and then fill out the survey. In addition, we ask that you help us share the links below with other creatives so that they can also be part of this assessment.



Disclaimer:

Please note that the survey only takes 10min fill out.
The survey does not require you to answer all questions.
The data collected during this survey will not be transferred to any other public or private institution and will only be used to inform our efforts to support the cultural and creative industries, as well as create a report that will be used to inform decision-makers on how to better assist the creative sector during this time.
