EDITORIAL- IKIGAI in Niarobi
I like to think each and every one of us on this planet is looking for ways to have individual satisfaction and a sense of meaning of life. I've been taking this literary journey reading on IKIGAI. Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means "a reason for being." I can best relate this with my American mindset understanding as having a firm foundation in your life that supports the personal things you love and value. It becomes part of your belief system. It is the reason why you get up in the morning. IKIGAI for me is developing my inner self that is faithfully spontaneous and never doing from a place of duty.
In this editorial , I'm looking for how IKIGAI is incorporated in other cultures. Africa is one of the countries that had used the Japanese concept. I'm curious how African culture willingly embraced a Japanese philosophy. In turn I hope Japan has done the same.--FreedomWalker

beetle's Sources, Citations, Credits, and Links
Themed credits and links that carry across multiple episodes will be archived at their own PAGES, as the credits and resources grow larger.
Each "new" Òrìṣà-Ifá or BlackGirlMagic credit/resource will, by the week after its addition, be taken off the weekly credits (unless it's used again as a source) and added to the appropriate page under "PAGES: Themed/Compiled Resources," in the sidebar for this blog. That way, we'll keep the weekly credits as streamlined and accessible as possible.--beetle

Lyrics: Music's man made; guess I'm my own religion, Theology is lame, I'm here for some revision. So what I'm from the 'burbs? It don't impede my vision, Make my money cuz I'm dollar ill, ring a physician. Ya'll ignoring me, soon to be my parasites. If I have haters, it just means I have a style to bite. I'll pound you in the paint, basketball or hip-hop, Ya'll some mice, I go hickory dickory dock. Rock around the clock, man at work, hard hat. Cock a couplet, fire a rhyme, holdster hard, brrat. I flow like 90's gold, that ain't nothin' new. (I can do anything better than you) Cash rules everything around me, old mint; But I'mma rap and knock you on the mat and outta print With the right hook, and some rhyme glue I can do anything better than you. . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TwJhH_Yj5M
