FORGIVENESS

Image
FORGIVENESS   There's something that's often defined as a concept but in this short article, I'd like to consider it a lifestyle.  Hitting the nail on the head, it's called forgiveness.   You hear people say things like "I hate sorrys" I don't like being told sorrys" I don't like people being apologetic towards me, BLA BLA BLA. Well I've come as the smasher of this table. For as long as you are alive, people would definitely step on your toes. Infact, there are levels to this stepping of toes thing. Some step on your toes, realize it , and apologize immediately. Some step on your toes and you'd have to remind them that they stepped on your toes! For others, they obviously know it's wrong to have stepped on your toes but they feel like you do not deserve an apology.  The most hurtful for me is when loved ones create that void in my heart. I think it's safe to call this toes stepping thing "a norms". Because, as humans, we ...

Five Reasons You Do Not Want to Be in a Relationship || Part 2

  Five Reasons You Do Not Want to Be in a Relationship || Part 2 Okay so, about 24 hours ago, I published an article here and I promised to release the fourth and fifth reason. So many of us sent a direct message to me which really inspired me to publish the other part of this article. Before we go into it, a lot of us asked about my mom’s reaction when I told her I was going to have boyfriend at the age of 18. Of course she was very astounded and couldn’t say much for a moment. We were both in the kitchen that day when I said it calmly. After a few hours, she started scolding me, reported me to my dad when he got back from work. Daddy has always been this cool man. He quietly sat me down and tried to make me understand that there was more to life. Mom’s most times used the “indaboski” method while dad was most times really calm. So yes, you have it! I present to you the fourth and fifth reason; 4. Have you first dated yourself? After some people have eaten breakfast, the rea...

Five Reasons You Don't Want to Be in a Relationship

Five Reasons You Don’t Want to be in a Relationship Being in a relationship is what we young people find ourselves craving for. Even the heart broken people who go around saying relationship is a scam and are avoiding another breakfast, still want a better relationship. In this article, I bring to you a few reasons you should not want a  relationship. Having another person to do life with is something beautiful but it becomes absolutely frustrating when some things are not first put in check. This is the gap I intend to fill here. 1. You Don't Know Yourself Yet. If you were asked; who are you?” you’d probably say "You are a chosen generation, or even talk about your background and family members. But who really are you? You really do not want to be in another person’s life when you haven't understood yourself to a good extent. When I was about fourteen years old, that stage of puberty as an adolescent where you just want to carry out adulthood adventures. As a younger Girl...

THINGS YOU SHOULD DO BEFORE 2021

  2020 VS 2021 Like me, you probably expected a total package from 2020, especially due to the alignments in her name. 2020 my year of this…my year of that. Well if you’d ask me, it was totally a year for me. I thought I’d graduate from the university, I really thought that would be my greatest achievement this year, however, my greatest achievement is the fact that I am still breathing. What about you? Fast forward to the time in the year where we all had to strictly stay home for almost a month; a time where everyone had a free lottery to get fat. Well, a good number of persons did while some didn’t; I did add beautiful weight. This paragraph would be dedicated to you who have been trying to be strong but problems keep arising. The problems seem like a ball of onions. The more you unwrap, another surfaces. Did you lose a lot of money in this year? Did you lose someone so precious? Did you lose that golden opportunity and now, it’s quite painful, did you fall so sick in this year?...

JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

  JUST THE WAY YOU ARE There’s this deadly disease in town. It pierces into the mind of its victims, circulates around the brain and then kills slowly. No, it is not COVID-19 or whatever disease you might have in mind. It is called “Body shaming” Yes, everyone has this “perfect” shape they want in their head for themselves, rendering God’s creativity useless. The fat ones want to be slim, the chubby ones want a reduced-fat in specific areas of their body and the slim ones want front and back with a flat tummy, some feel like their eyes are too big or lips are too meaty. Factually, we all have something we do not like in our body ranging from stretch marks to bow legs, big lips, bald head, set of teeth, and the likes. So, when people remind you, it just brings a feeling of depression or dissatisfaction.  Your Body and People’s Perception  Some people just give you silly comments about your body and sometimes it could just be a joke. Comments like “See how big your hands ar...

THE TRUTH ABOUT CONTENT WRITING

Image
  THE TRUTH ABOUT CONTENT WRITING Want to know why I titled this piece “The Truth” and not “The Fact?” well, I was in a conversation with some very sweet people some years back and what one of them said made a permanent stay in my heart. “A fact can go into extinction but not the truth” well, I agree. What really is content writing? “But I’m not an English student, anything that has to do with writing are for those in the field of arts” I really get such comments a lot. Now my dear brother or sister, (in an evangelist’s voice) content writing was not made for a specific discipline but it was made for some certain kind of people. People who have interest, passion and willingness to learn. Being an English graduate or undergraduate doesn’t make you a good content writer however it is a very good advantage. “Like play like play” content writing is already a part of our lives. We see contents on different social mediums. They are what give us information, keeps us up to date with...

His Demand From You!

Image
HIS DEMAND FROM YOU I saw myself in a gathering, a gathering of children of light and it was more like a female figure was the head of the gathering. Suddenly, a bus pulled over with some hefty men walking right down to where we gathered. They had this rope which looked quite unique and attractive. I don’t really remember what they wore, so I would rather not try to describe it. Like I said, they were hefty and they looked quite built. So, yes! They finally got to where we gathered and they required of each one of us to put the rope like thing that looked like it was made of a not very refined diamond. Some people in the gathering accepted while some did not. This was a personal decision, the woman who was the head in our midst had no influence on this decision. After they placed this rope like object on them, they were being changed and the men took them away. They had denied Christ. Immediately they left, we all fell on our feet and began to give intense worship to God. We t...
