BOOK REVIEW.

'Dream' by Uma Ukpai is a very insightful, instructive and interesting book. according to the writer, everyone has a dream but most people do not know their dreams or how to realize these dreams.

In order to realize your dreams, the writer listed out things that must be done :
-You must be born again 
- Live a life of prayer
- Live a life of regular fasting
- Live a life of giving
-Run from sin 
-Surrendering to God

According to the writer your dreams and peculiar purpose on earth could take you from one place to another. The writer used the story of Joseph in the bible who went from the 'pit of no water', to the 'pit of slavery', to the 'pit of accusation', to the 'pit of prison', and eventually into his 'palace'.

The writer also enjoined us to be faithful in whatever situation we find ourselves. Our faithfulness will greatly determine our next level. Our unfaithfulness will entrap us and keep us on a particular spot for a long time or even forever as the case maybe.

Finally, it is our responsibility to find out our purpose or calling in life and we can not do that outside our creator.

Freetown, when God made thee, He made thy soil alone Then threw the rich remainder in the sea. Small inlets cradled He, in jet black stone. Small bays of transient blue He lulled to sleep Within jet rocks, filled from the Atlantic deep. Then God let loose wee harbingers of song. He scattered palms profusely o’er the ground Then grew tall grasses, who in happy mirth Reached up to kiss each palm tree that they found. ‘This is my gem!’ God whispered, ‘this shall be To me a jewel in blue turquoise set.’ Thus spake the mouth of life’s eternity; There, tranquilly lies Freetown, even yet. Then God couched, lion –like, each mighty hill. Silent, they keep their watch o’er Freetown still Silent –
