Enough with the speculations and undue pressure!

By -

If two people have not come out to tell you they're dating, it is either because they're not dating or they're not ready to have their relationship out in the public.

Whatever their reasons, respect the fact that they've not told you they're together, and leave them the heck alone.

Enough with the speculations and undue pressure!

Not all close friends must be in love with each other. Two people can love and appreciate themselves without dating. Let's stop forcing people to see a romantic relationship in every friendship.

Two people dating may not think their relationship is ready for public attention. Leave them alone. Don't pressure them into doing what they're not yet ready for.

I know this is not an ideal Sunday morning message but it's been on my mind to say it. You are not TMZ. Mind your own darn business! Let people be please.

Keep Walking!

Johnny Walker must have been greatly inspired when he made this inspirational declaration. Sometimes, you want to stop everything and just hide... Keep walking. There are times the wind would make you consider sliding backwards... Keep walking. There are times you question yourself... Keep Walking. There are times you just want to swim in the ocean of lamentations and self pity... Keep Walking. Even when you pause to reassess your journey, let your mind Keep Walking. For what we should not afford is Stagnation, Time wasting, Procrastination, Idleness... Even if we could afford these, Walking has shown to be a Great Exercise! Keep Walking! Credit: Nengi Lawson Snr

Wisdom

By -

If you discover you are one of the few that operate in extraordinary wisdom, don't be too hasty to lend your voice to every trend and discussion because your suggestions and contributions will almost always stick and be accepted as a truth even when it is not because people have over times watched your consistency in display of wisdom. Some people are here to steer others aright. If you are one of those God has given this responsibility, you have to be very careful so you don't lead many to destruction. If people listen to you when you talk, agree almost all the time to your contributions on a pressing issue or seek your contribution before making a conclusion to an issue, just know you may be one of the rare breeds, you may be one of the Custodians of wisdom notwithstanding your age. The best thing to do in situations when your opinion is sought and you are not very informed or convinced about an issue is to be silent or to pend your contribution. This will save you a lot o...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
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...

I Am, I Can, I Will, and that is All

By -

I have come to discover from personal experience, and from observation that a lot of how people perceive or relate with us depends on the way we relate with ourselves.. I have had cause to deal with persons who gave me too many reasons not to take them seriously, and I didn't, why should I? And I have had cause to deal with people who I had no option but to take them serious, they gave me no option, these are people you just can't ignore or take lightly. I have done things that I should not ordinarily have done based on certain criteria like age, and marital status, and people were okay with it, why? Because I myself see no reason why I can't, so they see no reason why I shouldn't. People will only take you seriously if you take yourself seriously. As a rule, "PEOPLE WILL NEVER TAKE YOU MORE SERIOUSLY THAN YOU TAKE YOURSELF". When You change the way You look at yourself, people will change the way they look at You. When You change the way You think about...

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

By -
Image
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...

Its been an interesting week in the world of football. For the past few days, and many days to come, the world will be talking about Neymar Jr. Photo Credit: metro.co.uk 25 years old Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior became the world most expensive football player after Paris Saint-Germain made a payment of €222 million (about £200 million) to Barcelona, which is the value of the release clause in Neymar's contract. The deal was completed on Thursday, August 3, and would keep him at PSG till 2022. Many thought it was all rumours till it became official. The deal makes Neymar Jr the second highest paid player in the world (£515,000-per-week) after Carlos Tevez (Shanghai Shenua, £615,000-per-week). Neymar takes the number 10 Jersey, which was handed over to him by Javier Pastore. Neymar would definitely do great in PSG. Let's hope he wins the champions league with them and the balon d'or soon. There were a number of other completed transfers within the week. Let ...

The Gospel, a Goodnews

By -
Image
One of the most divisive edicts in Christian theology is the instruction to "Preach the Gospel and make disciples of all men." Some have taken this to mean conversion, whether the people want it or not. Others have embraced the mindset that Christians are better than those they seek to convert and that they are privy to a secret non-converts are unaware of. At the extreme, some forcefully proclaim that all non-converts are going to hell. I am not here to debate the veracity of the foregoing. What I am trying to do is to understand the spirit of the conversion mandate and to envision it from a place of love and mercy. Perhaps, preaching the Gospel is about the good news of a beautiful affirming relationship and not a judgment call about differences in ideology. By: Subomi Plumptre
