Piracy, bad market drove me out of movie production - Olootu

You did not start as a presenter; you started as a poet, why the change of focus? The kind of presentation we do then was purely grassroots and majorly Yoruba programmes. Any professional poet should be able to fit into radio presentation without any problem, so it became very easy for me to switch over to radio programming because of the experience I had garnered over the years when I was under the tutelage of Kolade Alabi. I was trained by him, because he had been with Radio Nigeria for a long time before I met him, he gave me the idea and it became a success.

At what point of your life did you discover your talent for presentation or did it just happen over night? It has always been part of me when I was very young and I can say that I noticed the gift when I was in primary school, I was one of the most outspoken boys during our days. During our end of the year activities, I was always the one speaking on behalf of other pupils. I read so many Yoruba books, listened to Olarawaju Adepoju, Tubosun Oladapo and others. I love listen-ing to their musics a lot when I was growing up, so I was able to pick one or two things from them that helped my growing up and shaped my intellectual ability. I was from a very poor family, because we couldn’t afford quite a number of things. The passion and interest of what I do is what I am enjoying today; I did not start because I wanted to make money, the interest was always in my mind every time and because I knew I was good at what I am doing, I was very sure that one day there will be a break through.

earthchanges: A Summary -- Kryon

Greetings, dear ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic Service. There are those who would say it should take longer for the Human Being in the chair to assimilate that energy that would be Spirit. They say that in order to have this energy encompass his body, to have a confluence of energy that is remarkably like the Higher-Self, it takes longer. And we say to you, this is the way of it in this new energy. You're looking at it. There's an old paradigm of linearity that says that you worship and you pray in specific times and you play in specific times. This is compartmentalizing God, isn't it? What if you always had that which is the Higher-Self ready to go? What if you carried it around at such a high level that it became you? Every word you spoke came right from it. Every time a Human Being looked at you, you had compassion in your eyes for them... with the one who argues with you, the one who calls you names, the authority that you don't like. How would you like to be able to look at them and first see compassion, then disarm everything else that happens emotionally? So when I sit in the chair, I have instructed my partner to become compassionate for all, and it allows me to come in instantly. And here I am. There's a tradition that when I sit in this place [Gaithersburg], I provide a summary of what is happening on the planet. So I'm going to follow that tradition. Some of the things that I am going to tell you and discuss with you now, I have said before, and recently on other continents. Some I have said even in this one. This becomes, however, a summary of things in a way we have not done before so you can hear them together. We speak in love. We tell you the things that are happening from our perspective and we remind you of what they are. But in all that I am going to say to you, we emphasize this: All of the things that are happening on the planet happen slowly. You must start thinking and observing in groups of generations and not simply year to year. Dear old soul, use that wisdom that you have collected in the many times you've been on this planet right now in order to understand this message better. Understand that time must pass, for no other reason than for the children to come in that do not have the same consciousness as their parents. So you're looking at that which is generational, but it's happening before you. So again, all of the things that we discuss this day are given in love.
