You decide on the Seeds

By -

A fruit is known by its seed. A tree is known by its fruit. Trees are matured, grown seeds. Seeds are those little fragments that make our lives the whole. Seeds are what we allow to be part of the whole. Every little stem, leaf, branch, stump and fruit are results of those little seeds. Poor seeds bear bad fruits. Healthy seeds bear good fruits. The fruits are the product of those little seeds.

What kind of fruit do your little seeds produce?
Lies, Hate, Envy, Shallowness, Bitterness, Naivety, Pride, Laziness and Promiscuity..
Or –
Truth, Love, Knowledge, Grace, Faith, Humility, Hardwork and Self-control.

You are responsible for the fruit You yield because you allowed the seeds to grow.
You can nurture or uproot, love or despise those seeds.
Thorn bushes do not bear grapes and briars do not bear figs.

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

I'll share some science related facts here. This is credited to Jude Onyekachukwu Igwe. Let's see them: • If the earth didn’t have the moon, our days would only be 6-8 hours long and there would be between 1,100-1,400 days in a year. • On the real Titanic, the band actually did stay on the ship, playing music as it went down - They all died. • It only takes 6 minutes for brain cells to react to alcohol. • Women are more attractive while they are ovulating. • When people say "you've changed " there's a 95% chance that you just stopped acting the way they wanted you to. • Since refrigerators hadn't been invented yet, ancient Egyptian Pharaohs made slaves fan their wine all night to cool it down. • A 13 year old boy found a tooth growing out of his foot in 1977. • The unhappiest people in this world are the people who care the most about what everyone else thinks. • Plants get hot and feverish when they don’t feel well, just like humans. • People w...

Be Willing to Risk the Known for the Unknown

By -
Image
On your journey towards authenticity, just when you feel like you are finally living on a high vibrational spiritual level, life will take you to a crossroad where you will be forced to make a major life decision. Your choice of action will decide if you are still going to be subservient to the social programming or if you are going to free yourself from the chains of worldly expectations. It is usually a decision that cuts you off emotionally and maybe physically from some of your close friends and family because they will not understand why you have to take such a risk. The truth is that nobody knows the vision you were given. If you decide to play it safe for the sake of acceptance, you will never find out who you really are and all the abundance that may have been. If you decide to take the risk and step into the unknown, go inside it with courage, hope and faith that everything will work out well. Life is a double bind and every day, we are either growing into our authentic selves...

(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...

Relationship Series (Introduction)

By -
Some years ago, I began to have some thoughts about life. Everyday, we come across people who put up false happiness. Everyone's trying to be truly happy, and everyone surely deserves that, because there's no life without happiness. But a lot of persons are much unhappy inside than they seem to be. Sometimes the pain they feel deep inside gets to a threshold, where they can't keep on putting up false happiness, and their true feelings are more often expressed. For a good number of persons, they redefine happiness, and their definition of happiness does not bring them true happiness, though it feels so at the beginning, but at the end, it only adds to the pain they already feel. At the same time, their search for happiness causes pains to others who are averagely happy or whose happiness is below average. Relationships are part of life. Everything about life thrives on relationship. For every society to be progressive, there must be a greater part of the society with posi...

The Comfort Zone, a bigger threat than hardship

By -
Image
What! Just because you're comfortable where you are doesn't mean there ain't no better place. Sometimes, we're too lazy to step up and own what we really want. I took a cab today (on the day this was written) heading somewhere and then two taxi drivers (The Driver of the car I entered and another one) – their conversation ended with: Other Driver: In 2030, there would be cars running without fuel. Our Driver: So what! I won't throw away this one na, I'd still be using it. You just can't believe how shocked I was to hear that. You see, truth of the matter is people don't get to advance because they're comfortable where they are. The greatest enemy to your tomorrow is your today. You need to understand that today is a phase for tomorrow to come. It's not a final bus stop. Don't hold on to yesterday like it's a prize. There are better days ahead. And if you really want to get the best out of life, you need to be uncomfortable with wh...

Eggshells (Episode 5)

Felix and Tonia entered in together. They met Ada setting the table for dinner. She looked at him scornfully and went into the kitchen to get other items. Meanwhile, Felix offered Tonia a seat. Ada returned with two glass cups in her hands. She placed them on the table and was about dishing the food when Felix spoke. "Can't you see we have a guest?" She looked at him and dropped the plate in her hand on the table. "Point of correction, your guest and not mine. I don't know her", she said and hissed. Felix shook his head. "And you don't bother to know her? She would like to see you." "For what? Is she not your mistress? You've finally brought her. You have no shame." Felix was confused and upset. He wanted to speak but he was stopped by Tonia who rose up. "It's okay Felix." She turned to Ada. "Hello dear. I believe you don't know me and that's why you're reacting this way. My name is Mrs Toni...

Relationship Series (Part 1)

Our present society is a mixture of different persons of different family values. That's one of the major reasons why people have different understanding of an issue or situation. One from a family with high personal and moral values may not agree with the other who has his or her own values, and who feels they are justified and right. You see situations where people can't relate because of their parallel opinions and beliefs which are antagonist to each other. You see situations where people "mind their business" because they feel that the actions and activities of other persons, has no significant effect on them. One thing I've learnt about life is that everyone, has an effect, positive or negative, on the entire system. It's like a chain reaction. And the only way to ensure there's a general positive effect is by everyone who knows what's right, do what's right and help promote such positive vibes in the little way they can. I can be of help to...
