This is a figurative expression of how deep the mind can delve into, especially when there are so much upheaval and economic recession. There is continuous daily news and broadcast about the down tune of national development and the naira. The questions ring in the mind; why are some poor and suffering while some are rich and getting wealthier? Why are some beautiful and others the opposite?

So many thoughts keep going through the mind to the extent that the recognition of us as seen on our face or head becomes invisible. This is a meditation about the new direction.
