The Trials & Tribulations of a Freshly-Arrived Denizen...of Ghana

"In fact the only people out there fighting Africa’s corner are the armies of bloggers like E.K. Bensah and Sociolingo - if you read their blogs (and I strongly urge you to do so) you’ll see a different side to the continent; a far cry to the famine, disease and war western newspapers and broadcasters would often have us believe." --Adam Westbrook, Journalist

Dr.Martin Luther King Jr
Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

Zig Ziglar
People often say motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing--that's why we recommend it daily.

T.S.Eliot
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail...

"Emmanuel Bensah somehow manages to make me nostalgic for tro-tros, the overcrowded, sweaty, unsafe minivans that serve as transport for most urban Ghanaians. His photo series of a trip from East Legon (near where I used to go to school) to downtown (passing the National Theatre of Ghana, where I spent countless hours studying with Bernard Woma) is hugely nostalgic for me. It reminded me that those motorized sardine cans were the best possible introduction to Ghanaian color, culture, humor, patience, grace and goodwill."â€”Ethan Zuckerman

"Thanks again for bringing back memories of my beloved Ghana."â€”Pearlsa

"Aww... I love Madina! I have so much history thereâ€”Elsa

"I like your blog... it has a very welcoming appeal to me..."â€”Alyssa

"Now that just makes me miss Accra! I should rreally haul my behind out there..."â€”Elsa

"Your post is so complex and wide-ranging. It's unweildy but powerful. It's fascinating to read, but impossible to comment"â€”sissoula

"My respect for you went up greatly. I thank you for the retraction. That took guts. You're a gentleman and a scholar"â€”saurkraut

"I don't think you're making too much of a fuss; you wouldn't want you children listening to that and that's understandable. Maybe you should take on the music industry next..."â€”Elsa

"Just stumbled upon your blogospot and website, and want to say Kudos to your efforts. I am a Ghanaman living in New York, a writer also, whose first book just got published by HarperCollins/Amistad, NY. Title of book is the "The Prophet of Zongo Street". I will be logging on to read your reports about Accra and to find out what's going down in the Motherland."â€”Mohammed Naseehu Ali
