WHEN THE LOVE GOES SOUR

Image
You know how you always want to be with someone you love? How everything they do seems perfect? You practically live through each day mesmerized by their love but when this changes then you've got to open your eyes and see this changes We all face this at some point. Practically all of us. Could be someone new person in the background stealing the spotlight or someone who hasn't let go re-kindling old fire How do I know the love isn't what it used to be? 1. When you call and he doesn't pick( it could be for some other reason) 2. When nothing you say seems funny to him 3. When you chat him up and he reads without replying 4. When he gives excuses on promises made 5. When he refuses to talk after an argument, quarrel, fight, misunderstanding 6. When he starts seeing faults that normally don't count 7. When he gives more attention to other people 8. When he knows exactly what to do to make you  not angry yet he doesn't 9. When he doesn't return...

HOW COVERED ARE YOU?

Image
Hi guys, so I have been away for some days. I have been occupied with the holidays but I am back! Today I will be discussing an important issue. A lot of people will not buy into my idea but this is my own stance and I wish to share it with you guys.... There is something called "Baba Isale" in yoruba language speaking tribe of Nigeria. This baba isale is someone you look up to, someone you run to when in need, someone that supports you in all you do. This person helps you in all areas even politically, economically and the likes. In business there is something called insurance, now I do not have so much knowledge of business and how this insurance works but I know it's a sort of covering on one's life or property incase of death or accident. Now, because you have someone like this in your life( baba isale), you become firm. You become bold. Nothing bothers you any longer solely because you have someone that has your back at all times! We've all been b...

A LITTLE JAR OF OIL

I woke up this morning to the sad news of the flood in Benue State, Nigeria and this is coming days apart after the flood in Houston,U.S.A. I cannot begin to feel how helpless and scared these people are presently neither can I wish same for my enemies. This didn't happen because it was their fault. Houston, Texas  This is best defined to me as a catastrophe created by man though it can be an act of nature. Right now I do not want to apportion blames, I just want something done for these people to make them safe and keep them from further harm Benue state, Nigeria Benue state , Nigeria  A lot of Nigerian celebrities are currently under fire because most of the are putting up the #PrayForHouston post on their instagram pages and neglecting #PrayForBenue post, some readers and fans are not taking it lightly citing that they should be more concerned about their own country. Personally, it doesn't matter to me. Houston is a part of a county as much as Ben...

WHEN YOU THINK HE IS NOT THERE

Image
Happy holidays to all my ardent readers. To all my Muslim brothers and sisters, I say Barka de sallah... it's really a long holiday which is totally good for my soul.. All through this week I have been going through so much, from work, to sorting out my life and most especially emotional worries ( majorly the problem), last week I saw something that isn't the first time I will be seeing it but this time it totally put me off and I decided I wasn't going to take any of it anymore. I spoke to the person involved and I got same reply as always.... chill. Well, I told this person to go sort all the issues this person has and then the person can decide to come for me but until then no more closure..... At this point so many thoughts came up in my head, I started skipping food, my weight reduced and just this morning I asked my mother if i've grown skinny and she said yes! Omg! This morning I got down on my knees to pray( I haven't prayed personally in a long time) ...

ADMIT YOUR MISTAKES II

Image
So this is the concluding part of our discussion. Read on and share 3. APOLOGIZE:- Apology goes a long way in correcting one's wrong as this will ultimately prove that you have changed. It also shows that you are remorseful. After taking responsibility, you have to also apologize no matter who was wrong or right. 4. IDENTIFY YOUR MISTAKES/ CORRECT THEM/ MOVE ON:- One thing I did wrong about the incident I used as an example earlier was my inability to identify and accept my flaws but the good news is I later did, you too can! In all things we do in life, people will get on our last nerves same as we too will on theirs, people will walk over you, treat you basically as trash ( family, friends, colleagues, partners just name it) but we should not see it as an avenue to be mistaken. Be guided. Treat them with love, help them see where they have wronged you and accept them for who they are. You can also show them how to correct their mistakes and most importantly, allow them to mo...

WONDERFULLY MADE

Do you know you are wonderfully and fearfully made? Only made that another version if you cannot be found else where in the world? So unique that no one carries your prototype? If your answer is yes, then know this today, you have made it in life. While working on this topic, I was watching a wedding video of a cerebral palsy warrior, he is a graduate in one of the most expensive University here in Nigeria, a resourceful marketer. I couldn't believe my eyes! He is wonderfully made to fit into God's plan for his life. What about you? So you think you cannot go beyond your current predicament? Or that you cannot get a better job? You think someone is doing better than you? That heart break was so devastating and you think you cannot love again? Oh, she spoke badly of me and now I have low self esteem? Come on girl,Look beyond now and know a better you lies inside waiting to burst out! You have being programmed in a way that anything life throws at you, you can contain. Yo...

ADMIT YOUR MISTAKES

Image
Early this morning I was having my morning devotion and as I scanned through my phone for the topic of today's message I saw something that both opened and pricked my heart in which so many of us are fully guilty of ( I do not exempt myself), we all are guilty of it as some point in our lives. Admitting that you are wrong can be very tasking and tedious you know? But it takes an individual with an excellent spirit and character to admit one's wrong-doing. You know, it is tasking. This topic reminds me of an issue that happened between my sister and I. You see it happened that I was the one who was wrong but I couldn't bring myself to admit my fault. I was hot-headed and this act robbed off on our closeness and communication for that week but we later got back some how, we are sisters! Having said all these, I want us to look at the next few points on how to admit a mistake, they include: 1. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY:- The first step to do take in admitting your mistake...
