Two Choices

By -

Life is full of ups and downs. When we fall, we are tempted not to get up because of the uncertainties we don't want to confront. When we stay down, we don't accomplish anything, and we feel worse.
But when clean our eyes, dust ourselves up, get up and follow the light or hope, no matter how small it is, we'll surely feel better and fulfilled. Trust me.

So I leave you with two choices:

- Stay down, casted and blame those that hurt you, thereby giving them control over your life.
- Leave it all behind, learn from your mistakes, look forward and find happiness.

Stay Positive!

Treat Him like a King

By -
Image
I love to talk about men. And the reason is very simple: • All men are unique. • They are our pride. • They are the beauty that we have as women. Most times, I tell my friends that when you treat your man like a King, he will worship you like a Queen. Never disrespect your man, he is the reason why people are calling you Madame. Stop looking down on him because you think he is already your husband, and so nothing can happen. Believe me, there are a lots of ladies out there who are willing to pay any amount just to have that same men you are insulting everyday. If you learn how to take good care of your husband he will always make you the envy of all. Don't be ashamed to try new things. A lady is a blessing to her husband, not trouble, pain and heartbreak. Make your husband your best friend. Your husband should be able to say, "Honey, I'm favoured because I have You as my wife". Your calls and presence should never remind him of how much a mistake he may have ...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -

A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

The Betrayal – A Short Story

(Part 1) "I think my husband is cheating on me" Eukera informs her baby Sister. "How do you know, or did he confess this himself?" Esther asks as she returns to the sitting room with a tray containing fruits.. She always entertains her Sister this way. "I know it, I'm not a baby you know. I will find that lady who has the guts to go out with my husband, and when I do.. Oh Lord, Oh Jehovah, She will regret ever being born", Eukera answers as she bites into an apple she had just taken off the tray her sister had brought. "I will recommend you do not conclude based on just a hunch. If he is really cheating on you, we will find out one day. I personally will get him arrested and dealt with. As for the lady, let me not even say anything". "Hahahaha, I trust you, but that won't be necessary. I can handle this. Thanks Sis". Just then, Eukera's phone rings. It's a call from her office. She grabs another apple, hurriedly g...

When it comes to achieving your goals and dreams, everyday is an important day. Every hour, every minute, every second counts. Once you make a decision to pursue your dream, you must alter your attitude; change the way you do things. You cannot continue to do the same old things same way and expect to get to your goal. Everyday, ask yourself: "Is what I am doing pushing me closer to my dream?" If no, then you should begin to shift your focus to something that will lead you inch by inch to that dream you seek to achieve! You can do it. I BELIEVE IN YOU! By: Fortune Kendra

If You can love wholly, love wholly

By -
Image
It's easy, too easy, to mouth off the long list of things we'd never do for a partner or while in a relationship. To drop wisecracks at the expense of those who make lifestyle changes when they get married. Here's why; Today's idea of relationships is a far-cry from what "being in love" is. This power tussle where each partner is striving to be the one who loves less. The one who walks away with more blood on their hands. Where everyone wants to score points for their teams. Being in love is a completely different ball game. It's you and this person trapped in a bubble of happiness which you don't want to break out from. You'd do silly things to keep them looking at you a certain way; say corny stuff to make their eyes light up; drop certain habits because you can't stand the friction they create between you two. A bad breakup may be the only thing capable of tainting the memory of how natural it felt to do these things and how happy they m...

If you aren't scared, and concerned, there's an issue somewhere. • Unfaithfulness becomes an issue when you accept it as part of you. Falling doesn't make you a failure. Accepting defeat does! • A woman in Love is very content they never ask more than you can provide. If you're wise you'd know they deserve the entire world. • Don't let friends push you into making choices you may regret.

But remember how much you wish someone could just ...

Family is Everything

By -

A man once lived with his family. They did not have much but they didn't go begging either. He had three children - David, Kingsley and Rose. David, the eldest is a graduate, not married and had a job, while Kingsley and Rose were still in college at the time. Everyone in the household looked up to David for financial support since their parents are now retired. He (David) has a well paying job, he loves luxury and got himself whatever he desired. He lived a flamboyant and care free life. He loved women, for that fact he got himself an apartment so he could do as much as it pleases him with no restrictions whenever and however. He unscrupulously threw money around like it's a mere grain of sand and never bothered or made investments (Yes, he was that stupid). Kingsley and Rose weren't finding things funny at school. They've been stopped from taking lectures because they could not pay their tuition fee. Of course they asked, and David was skeptical and paying little wh...

Do not build your castle on anyone's talk

By -

Don’t build your castle on anyone’s talk; or you build a castle in the air…. Talk is cheap and anyone can afford it... even a pauper. I read through a timeline here a while ago and I saw series of “I've missed you, where have you been?” posts. I smiled as I read through. In my mind, I asked, “Have you tried getting in touch with this person you claim to miss, beyond posting ‘I miss you’ on their Facebook timeline?’ It reminded me of lots of comments I have come across where people would ask a certain writer to go write their book, start a blog and begin a blog series, release their anthology etcetera, because they “…just write so well”. They tell a singer, “When will you release your album? I can’t wait!” Someone graduates and they begin to ask them with ‘concern’, "What are you still doing? Your mates are married! You must marry too; and make sure you invite me and my husband and the children." They ask you, “Ahn, Ahn, David does not have a y...

Casting Aside Expectations

By -
Image
Our generation has been termed to be the most open minded in the history of human race. That's partly true, as our generation is extremely diverse, and with that diversity many ways of thinking appear. We find that the ideas older generation consider private are openly discussed by our generation and likes of such attitude and approach towards life. This new behaviour and idea of diversity has exposed a lot of us to accepting new ideas – which is not a bad thing in itself. However, it becomes a problem when we start allowing the ideologies, beliefs, and expectations of others define how we live our life. The lack of a strong personal conviction or ideology has left many to seek validation or acceptance from external parties, letting the acts and words of others guide how they live their lives. To be the best you, you need to know how to break away from letting others tell you what you should or shouldn’t do. If what they’re asking of you or exemplifying doesn’t fit into your plan...

When eagles are silent, parrots begin to chatter (Winston Churchill) If you would convince a man that he does wrong, do right. But do not care to convince him. Men will believe what they see. Let them see (Henry David Thoreau) Leadership is not about titles, positions, or flow charts. It is about one life influencing another (John C.
