I Conquered Masturbation, You Can too!

I started masturbating when I was exactly 14 years old. It was such an experience I never believed I could break off from. I grew up in a 'ghetto-like' place, which exposed me to different kinds of persons and experience. I had to run errands for my Grandmother and in the process, stumbled on neighbours watching movies with Adult content and sometimes saw some of them in the act, and because they felt that I was a small boy, the girls either didn't bother to cover themselves leaving their bodies bare as they attended to me, or continued in the act and never cared to pay attention to who it was that was around. Some of the ladies around who were not married would then touch my private part and tell me things they would have done with me if I was older. These were seeds that were being sown in my mind, and unknown to me that it would later lead me into a deep mess. The kind of friends I had both in school and home were those from the privileged class who had access to th...

(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...

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...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

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...

This is one of the best shortest books I've read so far. It's so short (about 41 pages) that one could finish it within a couple of hours. But every page of it; almost every paragraph of it has an inspiring bomb! It's a book one could go through every morning if possible, or maybe at the beginning of the week. It's cool! Think like a Champion was written by America's 45th and current president, Donald Trump. Donald is a successful businessman and television personality, and he shares so much successful tips that's helpful to everyone who wants success and wants to stay successful. I'll share a little of what I learnt from this book. I want you to get this book, and have some mental fun with it, as well. • Never sell yourself short! No matter what, maintain your faith and believe in yourself and your abilities. Don't compromise to please others. If you're talented and passionate about something, make positive use of that talent and pa...

Happiness and You (Dopamine)

By -
Image
Hi Reader! Hope you're doing good? I was checking up on happiness and how it relates to the body and brain, chemically. I found some interesting stuffs that I'll love to share. There are four chemical substances that are related to happiness in the body: Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin and Endorphins (DOSE). There could be more than four but these four are major. My interest today is on Dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter which influences "reward-motivated behavior " in relation to happiness. By reward-motivated behavior, it is responsible for the excitement one feels when there's a task to be done with a reward attached. This reward can be a goal to be attained or landmark to be set. It's just like something good is coming out from carrying out a task or action, or something new and exciting will be learnt or gained after undergoing an experience or completing a task. You know how good, happy and excited you feel in a situation like this? The brain rele...

Real wealth comes through solving problems

I'm not certain of the actual writer of this, but I think it's worth sharing on this space. Thumbs up to the Writer! ----- The major secret of billionaires is their ability to find solutions to the challenges of humanity. All of them created solutions that brought the billions. Presently, Bill Gates is spending millions of dollars in search of renewable energy. By the time he finds one and become a major player in the electricity industry, we will say he is lucky. But we forget that he didn't pray for financial breakthrough, he only found a solution to a global problem. Wealthy people don't necessarily look for money, they create solutions, and money will follow them! Larry Page and Sergey Brin went all out to help humanity find things faster on the internet, and billions of dollars followed them. Mark Zuckerberg created platforms for socialization, and over $71 billion followed him. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak went all out to reduce the size of computer. What ...

The Love connection and Passion

By -
Image
What you deem as important may not be of relevance to someone else. What you call your life purpose, the next person may never have heard of it. True love is about sacrificing yourself sometimes and paying attention to what is important to your partner regardless of whether you like it or not. That's the only way to understand their deepest passion and innermost feelings. The love connection should be founded from passion and not from the outward expression. The root is what counts and the root is always growing inwards. Let your foundation be as deep as the oceans and let your love grow as high and solid as the mountains. Let the world be your peace.

Bring The Message to Life

By -
Image
There is a particular message that can only be transmitted through you because it is uniquely encoded within your soul. Some people might recognize your potential but what they see is just a glimpse or at best is just the surface of the vast depth of potential in you. You're the only one who knows the depths of your desire and you are the only one creating roadblocks for yourself. Bring that message to life. Some people's lives depend on it. Your fear and procrastination is not only causing you pain but it is affecting so many people who would benefit from your wisdom. Procrastination is a selfish endeavor. Somebody somewhere is waiting for those kind words you have to say. Somebody somewhere is waiting to be inspired by your light. Someone could be lying on a hospital bed somewhere and could receive revival through your message. You owe it to humanity to express that message right now. It doesn't belong to you. You're just a vessel. By: Uchenna Ilo

Everybody Wants, Everybody Needs

Based on Love languages by Gary Chapman, the Love language of Giving and Receiving Gifts; there are Two Types of Spouses; 1. Husbands or Wives who on their way back home or from a Journey will always buy suya, fruits, ice cream, cake, drinks, boiled or roasted corn, sweet mouth, chop chop, the sorts; to give and enjoy with their partners, or flowers, clothing items, stockings, ties, slippers, teddy bears, belts, anything buy-able and give-able to give to their spouse. Basically, this kind of spouse likes to give, and give, and give. They love to shower their beloved with anything and everything they can buy or create. They give irrespective of how much they earn, giving according to their pocket but giving nonetheless. Musa Gift (MG) 2. Spouses who don't have giving in their nature, maybe due to stinginess, ignorance or as I just said, nature. While some husbands believe that after giving madam pocket money or after allocating household funds; or with the fact that...
