Never give up, Give in!

Ever wondered why to every left there is a right? And to every right there is a wrong? why there is a male and a female? Why there is a black and a white? Why there is a husband and there is a wife and why you are different from everyone you see around you? These opposites spell out diversity and balance but what they signify the most is relationship. Relationship is the bedrock of our existence. It's the foundation out of which we were formed and forged into life. With no relationship with each other, there would be no I nor You. There would be no us. However, today the word or the phenomena, relationship has been contorted to fit certain people's definition of a relationship to satisfy their own needs or interests. Many people have suffered hurt at the hands of these people who have tainted the true meaning of a relationship. Relationships revolve around true love and I use true love because that word, love has also has been misused to mislead people's emotions. Fortunately, true love does exist and it's the ultimate pursuit of happiness and fulfillment. Love is so powerful, yet so gentle. Love is so passionate but yet so pure. Love is not just a statement or a document you sign your names on. Love is not a piece of jewelry that you adorn a woman with, but it involves commitment and actions that portray heartfelt feelings. Love is selfless and also requires work but the creation from that work is nothing short of a miracle. Although, the issues of love and relationships might have caused you hurt and pain in the past, do not let it keep you from experiencing love. Do not find yourself to be among those who say, I don't need a man to be happy or I don't need a woman to be happy. Both statements are right and wrong. You don't need someone to make you happy because the real work starts with you. You can't be unhappy and expect someone to be happy with you. You have to love yourself first before someone else can love you. The wrong thing with that statement of not needing anyone is that it shows that you're not truly happy. You may be happy but not fully happy since the final stop of true happiness is love and when you arrive at that stop, you always want to share it with someone that really deserves it.Now, the journey to love may not always be smooth but never give up on love. Don't let the past issues of relationships make you give up on love rather give in to love, because it will surely show up when you least expect it, and erase those old and sad memories you may have experienced in life.

Christians need to look in the mirror

I was born into a christian home and raised as one. Throughout my childhood and teenage years,  I remember spending countless hours in churches and various christian assembly.  I still am a devout christian and believer and lover of Christ. However,  I am not one to say that my faith is without blemish or error as it surely has lots and has become a global joke. Christians have now become sheep led by leaders who do not even understand what being a leader means.  Leaders who talk the talk but can't walk the talk.  Leaders who go into office to chase after titles,  money and fame. Gone are the days when pastors or Christian leaders go into office to make a positive difference in people's lives.  Gone are the days people shy away from being a Christian leader because of the difficulty or meekness of office or how they're perceived by in public or even as a result of the little money they make. Nowadays pastors consider themselves rockstars prophesying fa...

She won't call him handsome

Women in general are created to perfection. Their well-proportioned facial features, bodacious curves and innate cat-like walks are some of many things women possess that drive men insane. Traditionally, it has been the duty of the man to acknowledge a woman’s appearance or beauty. Most people would agree that it is the gentleman’s thing to do. A man who takes a woman out on a date is expected to compliment her appearance or beauty if he wants to score a second date with her. Admiration comments are also expected from husbands and boyfriends. Many couples have had fights that stemmed from the husband not complimenting their wives’ appearance. This stresses the importance of verbally acknowledging a woman’s appearance. However, it is also important for the woman to acknowledge the men on their appearance because men do appreciate those words and compliments. Words like “You are so handsome”, “I love that color on you. It makes you look more attractive” makes a man feel like a million ...

50/50: The mathematics of marriage?

 I spent some time with my mum today. We talked about a lot of things that revolved around me and life in general. The topic of marriage came up and we talked about how marriage and the idea of marriage had evolved over the years. Marriage back in her time and that of her parents or grand parents were based on the very basic things that mattered back then. Men chose to marry women who were polite, had a nice smile or simply just because they came from a good, reputable family. Those were the simpler times. Times when the parameters set for a mate can be argued to have been based on quality over quantity. Nowadays, marriage is a whole different ball game.  I believe everyone knows that marriage is a union of two souls to become one. However, some people going into marriage don't understand that it is a not a transactional relationship but one that is meant to collectively pull singular resources together to achieve an expected goal. This is because some women believe that the m...
