Quote by Thea Halo

“It seemed that our family had been on this land for thousands of years; that we had sprung from the earth, born of its flesh like a tree or a flower, deep-rooted, not by our feet, but by our hearts.”

“Colonized painting, for instance, is balanced between poles. From excessive submission to Europe resulting in depersonalization, it passes to such a violent return to self that it is obnoxious and esthetically illusory. The right balance not being found, the self-accusation continues. Before and during the revolt, the colonized always considers the colonizer as a model or as an antithesis. He continues to struggle against him. He was torn between what he was and what he wanted to be, and now he is making of himself. Nonetheless, the painful discord with himself continues. In order to witness the colonized's complete cure, his alienation must completely cease. We must await the complete disappearance of colonization--including the period of revolt.”

“Nothing could better justify the colonizer's privileged position than industry, and nothing could better justify tge colonised 's destitution than his laziness. The mythical potrait of the colonized therefore includes an unbelievable laziness, and that of the colonizer suggests that employing the colonized is not very profitable, thereby authorizing his reasonable wages.”

“Most of us choose to have no shame anymore. We don’t have Integrity, morals, respect, or principles. We don’t have back bone or something we stand for. Hunger controls us. Hunger for attention , relevance and to trend. Hunger for success, recognition, likes, comments, and engagement. Hunger for being famous or to be rich. Hunger for acceptance and approval. Poverty has made lot of us to do bad shameful things. To support criminals and bad people because we are hoping they would feed our hunger, or we will get a sit at the table.”

“Social media is a dangerous animal. It needs you to feed it to survive and grow. If you don’t feed it your time, attention, and data, it will die. But if you feed it too much of your time, attention, and data, it will grow beyond your control and can consume and destroy the things that matter the most. Like your peace, your dignity, your sanity, your purpose, your relationships, your friendship, your marriage, your career, and your reputation. The good news is this. You are in charge. Take from it what adds value, and leave the rest behind. Feed it data, attention, and time as little as you can. Stay in control, don’t let it control you.”

“The internet and social media are now being used as weapons to control and influence people. Those in power are doing everything they can to buy ownership of social media apps, platforms, and the internet itself because they want control. Social media exposes their lies, bias, hypocrisy, propaganda, mistakes, flaws, bad intentions, true colors, and acts of violence. They are being exposed for who they truly are and can no longer lie or control the narrative. Because of this, they are losing power. Please use the internet, Artificial Intelligence, and social media with discretion and caution. These tools are now used for surveillance, to spy on people, manipulate opinions, influence behavior, and collect data. Do not share, store, or post any secrets or sensitive information online”

“Last year you had lost a lot of your time watching Get Ready With Me videos (GRWM). By the time they are ready, you are not, and you are still where you were and still look the same as you did. You had spent a lot of your time watching what other people are doing than you doing something yourself? You watched people getting ready looking beautiful, fresh, and fit. People upskilling, starting careers, buying cars and houses, doing certificates, and learning new skills. People starting families, being serious with their partners and getting ready for their marriage. People getting ready with their mental health. Letting go of fear,  toxic relationships and friendships. This year we want to get ready with you. It is time for you to act and take steps and decisions on those ideas, goals, plans, and dreams. We don’t want another year to pass without you achieving something, learning something, or doing something.”
