Wale Ilori — 2009-08-04

Was at a 70th in Macon the upper weekend and these two were determined to let us know, they could move. and so they did. For a moment, I thought they were styealing the show from the celebrant, who obviously can't at that age move like them.

The greatest investment

Wale Ilori — 2009-07-20

Investing in a child is about the greatest thing you can do. Giving them the ingredients towards making good decisions and aspiring to greatness. When I hear about their mistreatment, I find it utterly cruel. However, foolishness is bound in the heart of a child and the rod drives it away. that's what the bible says. A different story in this society and it's showing!!!

Before the fireworks

Wale Ilori — 2009-07-09

At the concert on July 4th celebrations at centennial park. I didn't get the name of the band but I must say, they were really good. Much better than the groups Macys bring in each year.

Lonely Path

Leadership many times has a view like this: untrodden with limited scope. Don't be afraid of the uncharted roads. Many a witty inventions have been the fruit.

Last weekend was the dogwood festival at Piedmont Park, Atlanta. A snapshot of some of the things we really shouldn't be eating but love. I managed to walk on by.

Through the eyes of a child!!

Wale Ilori — 2008-11-03

For many of us, the age of innocence has long passed us by, but when you look into the eyes of a baby, it just melts you. Totally unconcerned with the affiars of this life, the little child looks at you with hope, tranquility and peace indescribably pure. As you look into this baby's eyes, try and capture a bit of it!!!

Athena at the Parthenon, Nashville, TN

Wale Ilori — 2008-09-01

The Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee is a full-scale replica of the original Parthenon in Athens. It was built in 1897 as part of the Tennessee Centennial Exposition. The building is a full-scale replica of the Athenian original; and the statue of Athena Parthenos within is a reconstruction of the long lost original to careful scholarly standards: she is cuirassed and helmeted, carries a shield on her left arm and a small(6 ft) statue of Victory in her right palm, and stands 42 feet (13 m) high, gilt with more than eight pounds of gold leaf; an equally colossal serpent rears its head between her and her shield.
