We are all passing through a transitional process. Our earth is carrying a large number of broken souls.

The transition is on going, it's a phase that we are all passing through unconsciously. We are all facing brokenness and depravity.

Some are passing through this transition with addiction, some are passing with depression, some are passing with hopelessness, and some have lost hope in religion and spirituality.

I really don't know why I'm writing this, but I believe the transition is on going. Some will come out stronger, some won't survive the transition.

Just be brave and face the transition. If you survive, you'll have a tale to tell, if you fail, at least you have tried.

Selah.

Happy Sunday

The life of others should never be a metric to measure how far you've gone in life, or how far you'd go. That's a first hand limitation.

Be modest in thought.

Design your life in accordance with the purpose in you.

Know where you are coming from, then you'll have a clear picture of where you should go.

Not all that glitter is worth chasing. Know this!

Patience has become obsolete, make it a priority still.

In a world where everyone wants to succeed materially, pursue excellence and dignity instead.

Be bold enough to be consistent in the most decent path. Old fashion is a state of mind, so as new fashion.

Everything might fall apart, but the peace and love you've built inside will carry you when your strength fails.

Knowing whom you are is the best way you'd find eternal peace.

If the world says you can't, I'll saying; YOU CAN! 🌹

Never be too careful.

Never be too careless.

Never be too careful that you avoid risks that might give life to your dreams.

Never be too careless that you journey through a wrong path.

Life's all about Balance. Master balance. Master diversity. You'll get there.

If you probably stop calling, texting, and reaching out to them, will you still have friends?

I know it's important to be there for people, but how many times have you been there for yourself?

Have you ever felt satisfaction within yourself? Or you rate validation based on external care and love?

People are busy. In fact, the world is busy.

In all thy doings, try to be there for thyself.

There is a core aspect of emotional intelligence that people often overlook - Empathy.

We are so engrossed in self awareness and self relief; we seldom take responsibility of other people's feelings.

Emotional Intelligence isn't limited to self control, but extends to knowing when to console others, cheer others up, and when to let them be.

A cruise fellow will one day have a sober moment, it is your responsibility to understand that and resist the urge to catch cruise with that fellow.

When someone is mourning, use the right words when having a conversation with them, else, say nothing!

Good morning

Maybe, we can be happy on earth if we build an imaginary life. Just like kids believe so much in fairy tales, we could believe that we have everything (in our imagination), and live life with same idea.

Life's struggle. Normally, we aren't even sure of what's gonna happen next.

Life's messy. We try as much as we can to maintain sanity, but mental health sef don cost pass beans.

Life's war. You feel you are ready?? Omoh! Load your arsenal, greater battles ahead.

Life's pain. You'll feel it, you'll face it, and mind you, keep preparing for more pains.

Life's tension. One minute you are on guard, next minute you've got chains on you. The cycle continues.

Life's a restless zone. Even in your sleep, your mind and your brain never take a minute off.

That's life.

But I'm thinking, I'm deeply thinking if living in our imagination can really alter life's settings.

Should that be our only option? Maybe. Just maybe.

I've seen rich people getting richer, and I've seen the poor strolling down to penury every passing day.

"Time heals everything", you believe this? Lol. Time doesn't heal always, time sometimes extend suffering and pain.

'Euthanasia' was a means of ending pain and suffering in the past; people pay for their own death, because there is clearly no hope.

'Coup de grâce' is also a type of mercy killing where a badly wounded soldier is shot by a fellow soldier to end his suffering. Why? Because there is clearly no hope.

Most times we preach hope, resilience, and perseverance, but the truth is, some pains will never go away.

Some people might never taste wealth till they die.

Some people might never own a house till they die.

Some people might never be healed of their diseases till they leave earth.

Also, some people will never know poverty till they leave earth.

Some will never beg for bread even to their 5th generation.

So what's the essence of time if it can't heal all things?

That's where 'Long-suffering' comes in. Long-suffering is a idea of not letting things you can't change weigh you down.

Long-suffering is being happy even when you clearly know that there is no hope.

Long-suffering might not bring you out of that bad situation, but might be a mechanism to help you maintain sanity while basking in pain.

Time is not always a healer, time might be an amplifier of pain.

Ps: Be that as it may, never give up! Help might come someway.

Do education begin at home,?

Some days gone by, I overheard a woman telling someone that his little son will start schooling. The other fellow was like "Abeg carry am go better school o, you know say to train pikin dey start from nursery school"

I heard that statement, I breezed in, I simply said; "Training a child simply begins with parenting, and that is the most vital aspect of child's training." We had little disagreement and agreement and it phased off.

Now, that's we and the society. We've given more responsibilities to our rather cracked educational system than parenting when it comes to child's training.

The appropriate development of a presentable natality of a child is directly proportional to the kind of parental care and concern given to that child.

Education begins at home. It isn't something a child starts learning when he or she starts learning phonetics and verbal reasoning.

Education deals with observation. It's simply a child learning from your doings and actions.

We've given so much responsibilities to women and men who have their own families to think of, just because they became teachers.

Most of us have gone astray and cracked our ways, but we are not totally destroyed because some stuffs we learnt from parents often drags us back to the point called 'Origin'.

The question is, in parenting, what Origin are you creating for posterity? Or are you just going to sit down and allow class room teachers create one for them??

Parenting no be child's play!

Spend quality time with your children...

-Until then, always remember that the future we preach everyday has already started its journey.
