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!

If you believe in yourself, you will live life being yourself and doing the very best to give yourself a worthwhile life. Do you know that staying poor will make you deprive yourself the taste of a quality life, so why not work and treat yourself with love. Your body deserves good clothes, good food and good shelter, honestly I have looked at life and agree that I need to be very wealthy and healthy to enjoy this and much more. Please make up your mind to love yourself, and you can't love without giving. Give yourself what it needs. The bible say love your neighbour as yourself because you deserve to love yourself. Today, some people can't just show love to themselves, there is no food, no good place to lay your body and no enough money to afford the good things of life. Please it starts from learning, earning, investing and working. The pains you don't face today, you will face tomorrow. It has been discovered that no pain, no gain. Find a job or create and start building ...

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...

Relationship Series (Part 1)

By -
Image
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...

What are you going to do for Someone else's Freedom?

By -
Image
I am skinny and I don't like cold. My lips quiver, my speech seizes, my nose shoots out mucus with every sneeze and I think my metabolism stops too, except my kidneys. It starts to produce urine like a liquor factory. The toilet must be within few paces away. Where there's no toilet, I can't handle myself when you put me in a cool room. My feet grow numb, I may have to postpone my presence at a meeting or a discussion to use the bath or the bush. I can cope with no fan or air conditioner all year long. Just give me a damn sweater and a wooly duvet, I'll be good for all seasons! But there is another type of cold I've grown used to. It's the place my unconventional ideas push me when I ever open my mouth. It's a damn cold feeling to be ostracised by people who once used to give you a warm hallelujah when you said something they agreed with. Now, no chants of acceptance, no chorus of praise, no little short speeches telling you how wonderful you are. You ar...

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...

Storytell like Starbucks

I was surfing the web some days ago and my love for football drove me like a fish into water and straight I went to the site footyroom to view football highlights. El Classico, Emirates Cup, let me quench my longing like a wife awaiting the return of her husband from war. As the site got loading, a video on the top of the screen caught my attention. And the caption, “5 things you did not know about coffee” arouse my curiosity and I was fixed. Let me see what these oyibo people think they know better. The video played on, point after point and I could not argue, I was fixated like my life depended on it. The clarity of the message, talking about the volume of coffee consumed each day, worldwide. New York, the city that consumes the highest volume of coffee and the fact that Starbucks opened two shops each day since 1987. I was smiling at the simplicity of the message, the facts and then the story woven inside. It was a beautiful mix that climaxed in unveiling Starbucks to the viewe...

Your personal health and fitness is essential!

"I am as passionate about personal health and fitness as I am about financial health. I believe your health is your most prized possession. It amazes me how many people pay no attention to their health. ... You know what you’re supposed to eat. We all do. Fresh fruits and vegetables, complex carbs, salads, whole foods, lean meats, more fish and poultry than beef... You know it, I know it, we all know it. So why do so many of us still go out and chow down cheeseburgers and fries every day? I’ll tell you why: because it won’t kill us. Not today. If you ate a cheeseburger and immediately suffered a near-fatal heart attack, would you ever go near a cheeseburger again? I doubt it. It may take twenty or thirty years, but when you add up the compounded interest on all that high-fat, artery-clogging dietary mayhem, eventually your poor overworked heart just quits, stops dead. And so do you. It has been said that we dig our graves with our teeth. It’s easy to ea...

Quiet Desperation (from a motivational video)

By -
Image
This inspiration is from a motivational video: Quiet Desperation. ----- The time when people are feeling a great deal of anxiety and fear, and reservations about the future. A time when people are going to work and don't know whether or not they will have a job when they get off. Look at your life right now. Whatever you've done up to this point in your life, your life is working. Whatever you have produced, it came out of you, but as a result of the kind of person you've become, as a result of your choices, as a result of your consciousness. Now, you have to ask yourself, are you satisfied with what you have produced? Is this what you want? Would you like for things to be better than this? And if you don't know what it is that you showed up to do, you don't know why you're here, I encourage you to find out what your purpose is here. What is the meaning of your life? ----- Which really stops certain people from being successful because they have so many b...

Men are same, wicked and heartless

By -
Image
Hi Lady, the problem isn't that all men are same, wicked and heartless. I think the problem lies in Your :- 1. Indecision to define your kind of man, probably due to self deceit and focus on what you will get (misplaced focus); 2. Faulty mindset: It's so baffling how people castigate their future and still expect the best out of it. If you've been brain washed by that your friend with failed relationship(s) that never told you her own bad side of the story, why not stay off the way? 3. Insensitivity to clearly identify him from the first day. One question no woman has been able to answer me till date is: What exactly do you consider before approving and entrusting your heart to a man? His appearance, six packs, money? The truth is that most times, the focus is always on what you'll get and at such, many become so blinded by the good treat and the gifts, "the Lannisters' gifts" ('Game of Thrones' fans should relate). These are actually your doo...
