PLEASE,DON'T DIE!

Image
                                    PLEASE, DON'T DIE! I am talking to you; I know It is practically impossible for me to accurately read your mind because I am not God But can you please look me straight in the eyes and tell me you are not hurt inside? I know your trick; you hide your pain inside the smile you glow I know your gimmick; you hide your tears inside your laughter Bravo! You are indeed a symbol of steel You bleed pain but still managed to smile: even though the smile you glow is not a sign of comfort but a sign of belief You successfully crafted means and covered your scars under the fancy power of your make-up I couldn't believe you would end up drowned inside the pool of heartbreak I thought that was the end; still, you survived it,you are a strong woman You square up your shoulders with full confidence as you stepped on every thorn laced on your way to pull you down Now! You are tired... At this very point! You are fed up Of cour

Uncommon Grace

Uncommon Grace Ewuro is bitter, so I didn't expect her to stay with me; so she had no choice than to pack her things and left me trembling for greener pasture in the arms of my fate Yoruba says Adun lo gbeyin “ewuro” but not all ewuro ends up with sweetness Each time I think about my life, I always have God to thank. It's so convincing that I am living under God's uncommon grace When I was smacked down by life and it looked impossible to rise. It did look impossible for Lazarus to rise from the dead... So it was for me, to rise again— believing a dead bone will have a life to talk about; the chance looked very slim Beholding with my eyes, the sparkling of stars on the faded surface of the sky of my destiny... Then God took me up through his uncommon Grace I ride on the wheel of his uncommon Grace without sustaining any life injury… When men said it was over; that was when God had not even started... The valley of the shadow of death has now turned to my favo

I LOVE MY WIFE

“Women are meant to be loved, not to be molested or used ”that was one of the strong pillars that help in strengthening my home Her skin looks glossy and silky each and every new day and that has always been my joy My mission is to make her smile in any way I can, she is my garden I can't stop watering every single day… The old Africa mentality will always deny us the benefits of a happy home There are so many stupid and barbaric beliefs in our traditions that could make us turn women into slaves... Alright, It is quite acceptable that the man is the head of the family but that shouldn't turn women into slaves “I reiterate women are meant to be loved not molested” Every home that glows love and prosperity is a function of a man who has perfectly understood the fact that“ women are meant to be loved not used or molested” The real thing is, women were not wired to think or act like men if you have women acting like men— such a woman is rare to find. They are flexible and rare gem

ZIP-UP

                          A big shout to Niffy: one of her quotes gets me captivated. Her story sounds outstandingly independent and I love the sound of that. Honestly, that is how the issue of relationships or marriages should sound. Relationships or Marriages is never a race, it is a commitment! Then why the rush, why the worry, why the unnecessary headache? It's a fact that we can be moved into tears as a result of what we see or hear. It's not our faults, that was how we were wired If Jesus Christ could burst into tears sighting the dead body of Lazarus and I think that explains the composition of human nature It's just that, it will be more disastrous for our existence if we unconsciously wheel ourselves to discharge nothing short of stupidity and barbarism. Our country is wallowing, romancing, and kissing poverty as a result of a barbaric display by her citizens. When you are not capable to shoulder on a fatherly responsibility or a mot

Misplaced Priorities

Image
What a pity! I thought I was getting it right and now I know I have gotten it all wrong... How I wish I could turn the hands of time so that I could be able to right my wrongs, edit my errors and takes every single step with carefulness How I wish I could talk to my past, if possible I could start all over again… Now there is raging fire on my mountain top, when I had the water to quench the fire I was busy pouring out my water... Every single step we take in life, of course, has a role to play on the board of our future... In other words, taking the wrong step is capable of denting the image of a glorious future… “A dog that will miss its way, will fail to listen to the whistle of the hunter...” “The input we gave into our yesterday is the output we have to deal with today...” “The seed we refused to plant yesterday is the single reason we have our lands covered weeds(unwanted particles)” “Priorities misplaced is a destiny misplaced...” When we were younger, we knew so

KNOWLEDGE IS POWERFUL,SEEK IT

KNOWLEDGE IS POWERFUL I don't need to seek for the guidance of a well-known professor, to know that, no man can grow beyond what he has inside(knowledge) The significance of knowledge acquisition in the human race can not be trivially taken It will also not be a bad idea to also write that, life will be easier for a man, who daily seeks for knowledge Knowledge doesn't kill and what kills is not death itself What kills a man faster, is his inability to seek for knowledge... It is simple, what you know, will link you to “an edge” and that is know-l-edge... We are in a world where people talk without evidence, people post without verifying the authenticity of their messages and people have considered ”Reading as a hard pill to swallow” People are conventional thinkers, not deep thinkers and this is one of the reasons many lives have fallen out of shape An average Nigerian believes that the yardstick for riches is directly proportional to exotic cars, mansions, and fatness of acco
