Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.

But they have done their part

Even though sometimes it looked questionable.www.facebook.com/theghanayouth, http://theghanayouth.blogspot.com/

There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.

Can we excuse ourselves?

Can we forgive ourselves?

Can they forgive us?

Will they forgive us?

Should they forgive us?
