When It Appear They Love You No More
In a situation as "**When they love you no more"**, getting to know of it, is often difficult. Especially when we are heads over heels in love with the person.
And this, always brings about some kind of soreness in a relationship, which may not be easily healed, if the relationship is annulled.
To avoid uneven heartbreaks, disappointments, emotional trauma, or pain, which follows the break-up of every relationship, as a human, we have to be way observant and look out for signs pertaining to this if any.
Now, this is where the big question lies. **"How do you know when they stop loving you?"**
It's often difficult like I said, especially when we are head over heels in love with a person. But, we won't let love blind us entirely?
Would we?
No, we won't.
**Signs someone is not into you anymore:**
✓They give you little or lesser time than they initially used to.
Yes! A guy or lady creates adequate time for whom they love. To hear for them and communicate. The moment they become nonchalant about you and your life, just know there is a problem.
It is true that that individual doesn't love you anymore. And yes! He/she is probably too busy with someone, busy enough that they forgot you.
✓When they suddenly do not prioritize your words, what you say, suggestions or ideas bring. They don't even notice the fact you did a contribution at all. Why?
Because they are busy living like the days of their singlehood, forgetting they are responsible for someone now.
✓ When they would walk away, or not pay attention if I'm saying something.
✓Give so many excuses as to why they can't longer call the as usual, or meet up with the dates they used to before now. It means they are definitely not in love with you anymore. Even if not entirely not in love, but yes! The love they had for you, had begun fading gradually.
✓When they only Speak or communicate with you when they are in the mood for you.
All my sponsors are gods
✓Not proud Enough to showcase you to homies, close friends, and family.
✓When you keep being the one to foster every kind of communication. Without the other party Making any efforts at all. That's because they don't care.
✓ When they offend you and still play the victim side without apologizing.
Either way, here are little signs. But they are the most popular ones.
Always remember you deserve the best, and at each point in time, you are the best of your kind.
Let go of anyone who doesn't love you, to avoid complications later on. Be serious with who takes you seriously.
Attach the same energy someone gives you, to them.
Not everyone that comes into our lives, comes to love us.
Some people come to use us. That's life and how unpredictable it can be times.
At each point in time, we should be able to discern LOVE, when we see one.
Even if you can't, always don't expect so much from people you ain't sure of. Keep a place in your heart, reserved to suppress disappointments when it comes, because humans ain't perfect at all. Not even you!
If you don't understand that things won't always go your way, people won't always love you the way you want to be loved, people won't always have your time, the way you really want, people won't always give you that attention you crave badly., You would end up breaking yourself so much that bringing back your pieces to be in a sane piece again, becomes a task you may never have the energy to do.
Don't ever think highly of someone that they are incapable of disappointing you. No one is above mistakes, neither is anyone perfect. So always be ready for disappointments from humans, at each in time.
Whatever is causing you to stress, and making you lose your sanity slowly., Be it humans, problems, or just anything...
It's unwise if you still choose to harbor them this 2022 with such burdens they bring you.
Lay it off., Lay them off unapologetically.
Your peace of mind and sanity are everything.
Anything or anyone that would come into your life to cause you stress, or take away your peace., Is TOXIC.
They don't worth your time at all.
Please do this.
Get rid of them, throw them off the window. They deserve to be laid off violently as possible. For causing you pains, take away any emotions attached to them and lay them off.
But remember, love them but from a distance.
Your peace of mind is everything and should be paramount to you.
Most importantly, be observant enough to be able to discern it at all your partner loves you no more, so too can adjust, and not be taken Unawares when he serves you a relationship breakfast (breakup).
I wish you the best of Relationships dear. I hope his little piece was able to help you somehow.

Under The Shade Of Love
It was that particular time of the year, and it was our anniversary.12years with Desmond was never a child's play.
We have been through a lot in our marital lives. Firstly, the issue of us not having a child to start with. This very problem broke me, each time I got to see the kids of our relatives, friends and immediate family members.
"Why was I singled out for pain alone?"
I would keep asking myself.
I remember my mother inlaw, threatening to throw me out of my own matrimonial home, and force my love., My darling husband, Desmond. To get married to another woman. According to her, "someone who is promising Enough to bear him children, and not a barren woman like me".
Desmond never fell to all of these. He understood children were gifts from God, and as such, he shouldn't question God. I married as a tear-rubber wife (virgin), and so, there wasn't any way I could be blamed for playing with my womb or ovaries in the past.
Desmond, stood tall protecting me all this time. He never for once hurt me, yelled at me, or blamed me for my inability to bear him a child, or children.
Instead, he loved me the more and protected my interest too.
Desmond was indeed the kind of man every woman would desire. He was everything loving, faithful, honest, understanding, caring and lots more. On days like this, when we had our anniversaries earlier back, to the initial years of our marriage.
Desmond would make sure to come back home earlier than usual. Sometimes before 3 pm, just to assist me in preparing his Favourite meal.
He would walk into the house unannounced, come all the way to the kitchen, where I'm always at, doing something as regards our meal.
He would hug me from behind, planting sweet kisses all the way from my neck to my cheek, and other sensitive areas too.
He would ask in his usual manner.,
**"What may I do to help you out, my Queen?"** _he would say with his usual broad smile, revealing his perfect dentition., With hands gesturing what his mouth had said seconds back.
And I, in turn, would smile. And tell him.
**"Whatever thou mayest wish to do, I'm okay with it".**
With that, he would lift me up, and spin me around. He would assist me in cooking, then together we would take our cold shower, with hot kisses and bodies touching, as the droplets of water ran down our body like chills down our spine.
After that, we would dine, and wine. Put on some music and dance to the rhythm. We would talk about every amazing thing about ourselves, and being the man., He would woo me again, just like he did the first time we met.
We would seal the celebration with hot explicit s-x that night. Body touching body, heart to heart, soul to soul, mind, harbouring same thoughts with the other.
Mouths, releasing sweet tender kisses to each other.
In fact, today's anniversary was so different. It has been different for 5years.
Desmond stopped doing the usual to me. No calls, no text, no surprises, no gifts anymore.
I don't know where all these came from, I don't know how it happened either. Just woke up one day after so many years of marriage, and I discovered the person I married ain't the same anymore.
Today being our anniversary, was supposed to be the happiest day of the year for me, but it was always the saddest. Yes! It has always been for 5 years now.
Today, as usual, Desmond was meant to come home earlier and give me a surprising back hug, offer to help me, carry me, spin around and all that... Plant kisses on my face., But no!
Nothing of this sort was done to me.
I went all alone to the kitchen, did the dishes myself, cooked our Favourite meal, dished it all out.
Took the shower alone, and not with him as usual.
I went on to prepare him too, so he would join me. And together we walked to the dining table, with me holding him tightly to my side as always. He was meant to hold me too, but he didn't. He was unresponsive to my romantic appeals.
I helped him sit as I did the same too.
"Hey darling, I prepared our Favourite meal to mark our twelfth year anniversary. I hope you like and enjoy it as always, ".__i said.
Desmond didn't give me a word still. For 5years, he stopped eating my meals. He probably didn't find our anniversary meal appetising too.
I went over to him, kissing him and caressing his skin too, hoping he did the same to me.
But he didn't respond. I wasn't even able to get my own husband on, in the mood to touch me too and together we head for the Wonderlands.
"A lot has changed about you., I wish we could go back to those years when you were ever loving and caring. Sincerely I miss the old you"
I said as I kissed him tenderly on his succulent lips. Desmond didn't respond to my advances still.,
Why?
He was long gone. It's been five whole years since his death, and ever since then, I never wanted to wake up to the reality that he was dead. I would wake up, bathe and dress his corps up.
I would talk to him, even though he never responded. I just couldn't bury him yet. The love we shared was too strong for me to counter it.
I miss the old times.
I miss Desmond's love and sweet kisses.
He is my only family now since we have no children. And I'm not ready to give him up yet for the burial rites.
I wish I could wish you back to life., My darling Desmond.

Stick To The Process
In life, we mostly find it hard to start a task and finish it. Even on a normal basis. Little tasks have proven often difficult for us to start and finish immediately without procrastination. And this isn't good at all. Sometimes, we have a different number of reasons for these procrastinations and all that. Maybe, we don't believe in the authenticity of what we are getting into, or we just lack persistence power. There is something we should understand., Always and always. The fact that every good idea or goal, come with their own problems, us everything. And for us to scale through, we have to be ever ready and keep the ball rolling by being persistent.
So many of us know ***Jay Shetty***. A motivational speaker, videographer, writer, and relationship coach. When we look at him today, we see how much of a success he is. We see how many lives he has impacted and so many of us want to be like him. Now, I would be sharing his success story with us.
Years back, Jay Shetty was just a young man, who just entered his youthful years. As time went on, he discovered he had a liking for humanity. He wanted to make a difference in the lives of humans he came across, online and offline. He just wanted to help inspire people to do more and be more. So one day, as a guy who didn't have any present work doing to fetch him money, he had discussed with his friend he lived within the same house. He told him about his plans to start to bless lives through online platforms. That he wanted to go and sign in to one of the media houses and start shooting and making videos with them since he was a good scriptwriter and so, he would have the privilege of acting all he scripted down. It was a very fantastic idea, so his friend had encouraged him. He stepped out that day too so many media houses and to his dismay, he was turned down.
He was asked questions like;
" Do you have any experience with acting?
And each time, he had replied " no"
And they told him he was never fit to be able to work with them.
One particular Manager had told him boldly, that he should go and find another paying job and drop his fruitless dream. That he would amount to nothing if he kept chasing it.
He was so pained to the heart by these words. He left for him dejected. He was discouraged. For some reason, he just wanted to quit. Everyone seemed to say the same thing that "he would not amount to anything if he kept on with his fruitless dreams". "Maybe they were right"
" Maybe my dreams are also fruitless"
My sponsos are gods, read from them by clicking the icon
" Maybe I'm wasting quality time on something that won't work out."...
" Maybe I should just fj e a paying job and stop all these dream chases"..
He said all these aloud to the hearing of his friend. That moment was an emotional moment for him. His friend kept encouraging him.
He told him..
"Firstly Jay., Those dreams of yours ain't in any way fruitless. And you will be successful. Just believe in your self"
These words were exactly what Jay needed at that time. He was encouraged. He could feel himself again. His heart gladdened at the hearing of these words. His friend handed him a camera and said to him..
"Since no media house agreed to work with you, here.. (he said handing him the camera)
Take this camera. You can make and edit your own videos from home"
Jay was wowed that was all he needed for a start. He thanked his friend so much, and the next day, he set out with work to inspire the world. He would write scripts, compile some of his best quotes, and make videos with them. He opened his YouTube channel, Facebook page, and Instagram handles and started posting and uploading his videos. The audience he got wasn't so good at the initial, but as time went on., His visibility increased. He started having over 100k plus views on YouTube, he had so many followers on Facebook and Instagram because his videos had blessed their lives in so many ways. He kept improving his editing skills. He decided to go bigger in this newfound career which gave him happiness. He would sit down and construct a script that would pass a very Good positive message. He would go out and get connected with people that would help act his script., While the whole thing is filmed up. Then he kept uploading. It took time, yes!
All Images are from Unsplash.com https://unsplash.com/
But he never relented. There were articles and videos of him that never yielded so much visibility at all. Some didn't yield at all and it hurt him definitely. But each time he was faced with these, he won't fail to look at the bright side of it. He would be grateful for the little progress he was making, he would be grateful for the lives he had been able to impact Somehow, and that kept him going. Each time he felt like giving up, that was the time he would push more and keep pressing on. He never relented for one day. And soon his persistence paid off.
He stated being famous as time went on, his books, began to be in high demand. He soon started to be invited to speak at large conferences, programs and was also getting proposals from so many media houses who wanted him to work with them, because of the professionalism in his skill of acting, filming, and scriptwriting.
He never worked in any media house to be professional, his professionalism, was a result of the work he did personally, as regards his growth and development. His persistence and efforts he put in showed up for him greatly as time went on.
Years later, that same media house owner that told him "go get a paying job, you would never amount to anything, chasing those fruitless dreams of yours".. called him and begged him for forgiveness. He confessed he was wrong saying all that to him. And now he understands that anyone can be successful anywhere and in any field. Anyone can cause their big dreams and still achieve them in time, so long as they have the zeal, passion, and persistence power. Jay had already been forgiven a long time ago. And so, this same man had asked for his autograph, and an opportunity to let his media house interview him. That way, it meant more fame for the media house, since Jay was so famous now.
Today, jay Shetty is still blessing lives from his videos and books internationally. All from the courage, he took in chasing his dreams of impacting lives.
See., "There is nothing you can't achieve at all". These have been my biggest words. If you can dream it, you can achieve it too. Just have the zeal, be hardworking, and maximize your persistence power.
SUCCESS doesn't happen in a day. It takes years and how long it takes, is determined by your percentage of Hard work, coupled with your maximum persistency.
How about "Big boy". The owner of one of the renowned radio stations in the world, that interviews celebrities on a daily basis. It is rated no1 celebrity station today. But if you were told what Big boy passed through in the process of fulfilling this dream of his, you would be taken aback. Let me quickly narrate it in a nutshell for you amazing readers.
Years back, big boy as he was fondly called, due to his big body size as a young guy, was always mocked by peers at school and at home. This was because, due to his size, he found sporting activities and other lucrative activities others found was and interesting., difficult. Each basketball team he entered, always failed because of that. People would laugh and mock him, telling him to reduce in weight and be more reasonable. He was a victim of body shaming on a regular basis. Things got worse, as everyone began shutting him out of their lives, except his best friend.
In reality, big boy, was from poor family background, with no siblings. Just him and mom. His dad was late already. And his mom was striving and trying everything in her power to train him up to university if possible while managing to feed them both. His best friend saw all of this and was sorry for him. He always encouraged him when need is, and sometimes gave him food and other stuff just to assist. Big boy's best friend's cousin, was never happy for him at all. He was the major person that gave him the most discouraging words. When his best friend, invited him to his house for dinner with his parents, his parents had asked the big boy about his dreams and career. And he told them that he wanted to own one of the biggest radio stations in the world. Both parents were so happy and encouraged him to keep pushing to achieve his dreams. Just then, Greg, big boy's best friends cousin has came in, laughing really hard when his uncle and wife has told him about big boy's dream of owning a radio station one day., And how they so much loved the idea.
Greg had told the big boy to his face that he would never amount to anything.
"Kill those dreams and face reality bro, stop wasting time and find a way to make money and rent a house for your poor mom, who lives on the streets"
" Greg!!"
" That was too harsh, his uncle and wife had said. big boy was so angry at this. His best friend tried to speak up against his older cousin's brother, but he was shunned. Big boy stood up and told him to his face "no matter how tough things get, I would still cause my dreams and make it to the top., Successful!"
He said and left, while Greg kept laughing.
That day, he was sad .and when his mom asked him, he told her how pained he was getting to see how poor they were. Still living on the streets, with no hope for better survival.
His mom encouraged him and told him to cheer up and not stop working on his dreams. That one-day, he would tell his success
Story.
"I wanted to keep this till your birthday that is coming up, but seeing how discouraged you are, I think it's time you have this."
She said and handed him a mini radio recorder.
He was so happy. It has been one of his dreams to have this one day, and his mom made it a lot easier for him.
Behind it, was a paper. And on it was boldly written..
"Whatever you believe, you can achieve. It's your dream, go get it. "
When he read it, he smiled. Hugged her and said...
"I won't fail you mom, and when I'm successful I would change your life and get you a big house. You won't have to live on the streets again".
Big boy would practice for hours with his radio. As years went by, he went to apply to work in a radio station, and he got the job. When his colleagues were on break discussing, he would be practicing and learning how to address and speak on air. He was MOCKED countless times, that he was never good and no one would love to hear him on air. This broke him.
He left angrily and encountered someone that changed his life forever.
He saw Greg, and Greg asked him what the problem was. After he explained Greg laughed hard as before and reminded him of something. "I told you that you won't make it in this field. Go and find something doing with your life man! You are aging quickly"
He said and left.
Big boy was pained. He immediately began doubting himself again.
"Maybe I'm good for nothing, maybe I won't amount to anything, maybe I'm wasting my time on something that would never yield".
Just then, his bag fell down, and his mini radio fell out to the ground. When he picked it up, he saw the words written boldly at the back.
He was encouraged again, he went back into the station and kept practicing. Years past and he was known. He opened his own station and today he is interviewing top celebrities. He fulfilled his promise to his mom and bought her a mansion as soon as he was stable in his Career.
There's something we should know., "Doubt does alot of harm, more than failure would ever do".
Stop doubting and trust the process. And you will win in the long run.
Looking at the lives of so many successful people, you will get to find out something striking. All of them had classes where they were looked down upon and written off., Countless times.
But in all, their persistence paid off.
Hello readers, I hope you are inspired by this write-up.
I wish you success to all you desire..
Love and light! 🖤 ***Thanks for reading***

The Secret
Hello again, amazing readers! I'm glad you made it to this article
You see., We all want to do things, and they work out perfectly well. We all want to yield so many positive results in all we do., That sometimes, we are quick to forget that there is a process for everything. As Christians, the Bible talks about "blessing the works of our hands". It also said a lot about the thoughts of God about us. In the book of Jeremiah, it says "The thoughts I have for you, is of good and not of evil. To bring you to an expected end"
These and lots more show God is concerned about us being successful and yielding great results.
My Sponsors are gods, click to read their post
The bible also made mention of faith, and works. And that's where I'm dwelling on today. God said, belief, and you shall receive. When you have faith and trust in him, miracles happen. Things change, there becomes a turnaround in that situation or those problems. Now here it is:
It's not only about believing in Jesus that matters. It's not only about having faith, but that will also make you yield results. In all, there must be something you have to do. Apart you have to play to ensure things work out right for you. Don't forget, to every promise of God, there is a task to be done. There is a part we have to play.
Speaking of faith, the part we have to play is our WORKS. The Bible made it clear to us that faith without works is dead, and that is to say that., If you only keep believing in getting a job, a promotion, to travel to another country, to pass an exam, etcetera.. and you neglect the work to be done., Something would definitely not turn out well in the end.
Don't have the mindset of total belief in God, and things will just happen like that, without you making an effort, in cases that you can, and it demands you make an effort. It doesn't work that way., God isn't a magician.
Now, what is faith?
The Bible said in Hebrew, that faith "is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen." It went further to say that " Faith without works, is DEAD!"
It didn't say, faith is the results we need, or faith will work without works.
This clearly states that, after we have done the work Involved, we then have faith. Believing in the process, believing in the works of our hands. That moment when it feels like it's failing, our plans are not working out., Our faith becomes the substance of the results we are hoping for, and our grand evidence of the results we are yet to see. That's just it.
If we have faith without works., What exactly are we hoping for then? Dreams I guess.
It doesn't work that way, it never did and it will never happen that way.
So, when we want something, we have to work for it, before we believe it.
Is it a job you want, or a promotion? You have to go the extra mile and do the work involved. You have to be qualified enough to have the job, go and apply in companies, go for various job interviews before you then trust God and have faith that it will work out for you.
When you have this mentality, you would yield more, you would work more to do more.
Let no man deceive you. Faith doesn't hold water without works. They go hand in hand. They have to synchronize in order to yield the desired results for you.
I don't know, but I sincerely think this would go a long way for you.
I remember When I was in search of a good job, some 3years ago. Of cause, as a Christian, I believed God's word for me, I had faith that I would get a miracle Job (or anything it's best called.)
Okay., I spent most of my time at home, I didn't go to submit any CV's again. I just felt I would be given a job from the many ones I applied over 2years back., Wow!
I didn't go to check for vacancies to apply. Whenever I was asked about my job, I would keep saying "I am still believing God for a miracle."
Now, it doesn't mean that God can't do a miracle., Of cause, God does great miracles and signs and wonders. But! In all, we have a part to play. I had a part to play which I neglected and didn't do. Okay, back to my analysis.
I stayed home praying most of the time and having faith. And not making any effort. Funny enough, my job status didn't change a bit. No one called me for any interview whatsoever, no one messaged me or emailed me about my already procured job. I just remained that way., Jobless.
It was after a whole year, that I had to understand that I was wrong. I was wrong because everything has a process. I was wrong because the way I thought things happen, isn't how it always does. I was wrong because I didn't do my rest and then have faith and trust God to do the rest for me. I was wrong because I left my part for God, thinking as he never sleeps or slumbers., He would always do it for me. Just the way he preserves us and keeps us alive daily, even without us asking or even thanking him as we should.
Then, a friend of mine visited me at the end of the year, during the Christmas season. And asked me what plans I was making on getting a good job. It was then I narrated my ordeals to him, and it got him laughing real hard.
"What's funny?"
I asked a little bit pissed off. My guy in his usual way, told me to calm down, and he made things so clear to me. This was the analysis he used.
He said.
"If you are ready for a seminar, that should kick off my 2 pm, and my 1:20 pm, you are already set. And because of the distance, you decide to use a cab. Would you not walk outside and find a way to chatter for one, or would you sit on your bed and expect him to knock on your door?"
This got me thinking hard.. he continued.
" Even if it was a bolt or Uber. Wouldn't you place a call for the available driver to hire, or would you just believe and expect the driver to locate you? Of cause no! Things don't work that way.
The call, or the little walk outside your house, is the work you have to do. The assurance that you will get one at least, willing to transport you, is your FAITH. They work hand in hand..if you have no works, even your FAITH would disappoint you, surely!
I was amazed. The following year, I began submitting CV's. And guess what, that was how I was called to work in three different companies. It was me, now having to make my pick from the threesome.
It thought me a lot.
I got to understand that for every promise of God, there is a task to be done. You would always see a responsibility you have to do attached to it.
And today, I'm a senior manager in one of the big oil companies in my base..what faith can't achieve., More work and an adequate dose of FAITH can.
Always take it to mind that you can do anything. But you will do more if you first work, and then believe, trust God and have faith in him. If you only have faith, it may not work always for you. Except in cases where there isn't any work for you to do, other than Believe. If not, always work and have faith.
Thank you for reading Fams. I would love to know how helpful this is to you

Love At It's Zenith
Take me to the time,
When actions meant to love.
When situations couldn't cloud it.
When temptations couldn't override it.
Take me to the time,
When sparkles in your eyes,
Smelt like hot fire,
Felt like cold chills down my spine,
Meant a wonder, to me!
Take me to the time,
When we would hold hands,
And feel just comfy-cozy.,
When we would feel love.
With a stare in the eyes,
We would be in a world of our own fantasy.
Did I ever tell you I cherish you,
And my love won't let you perish?
Now you know.
I would live,
To taste how saucy our affection would grow to be.
I have chosen,
To love you today.,
Because you deserve it.
How can a human be as Perfect as you?
You indeed are a wonder.
You give me the kind of feelings,
People write in novels about.
You give me the kind of hope,
it takes years to build.
You give me the kind of maximum security, that takes guards upon guards, a million, and more guards to ensure.
How did I ever find you?
Was it not under the sun I laid..
Watching as you played.
Then you got closer,
I wasn't so good,
but I stared like a poser,
In front of a camera.
I see you in my dreams,
I feel you in my realms,
Cause I'm head over heels...
In love with you!
Give me a flower,
And I would take you to the shower.
Bath, dine, and wine with you.
We won't stop,
till it gets to the point when it starts to dew.
Let me feel you,
Again and again!
Let me taste you,
As a hot sauce, you are.
Grinding and balling,
Like a superstar.
Touching the sky,
As you soar higher.
Even if they sigh,
You would not die.
Because my love
would keep you nigh..
Upholding you high.
I would choose you,
on the days you don't choose yourself.
I won't take you for granted,
because you gave me your all...
And made me whole, Again!
I am not deserving of you,
But I promise to be reserving enough.
To be brand new.,
For you!
If I had a flower,
For every time,
thoughts of you flooded my mind..
If I took a shower just when I ain't by your side.,
I bet,
I would be walking past my gardens, and my heart would forever gladden.
I bet,
I would miss every ounce of your touches, by each droplet of the water.,
On my body!
I am so High,
High with you!
Mad for you!
Crazy about you.
Till tomorrow,
It remains you.
I don't promise life would be better off for you,
with me in it.
I don't promise to always be by your side,
Because I may be so far someday.
Who knows,
Due to life's ocean tides.
But I promise.
A special place,
Would forever be reserved in my heart,
Leaving no guilt trace.
I assure you.,
Life with me,
Would be so amazing.
It would keep you gazing,
And wondering at a good pace.
If at all it's reality to which you live in.
And yes, it is.
Let me love you.,
Like we would,
If we were in the 1980s.
When we won't need a dime, to dine!
A situation, to find our love story.
An ointment, to smoothen it.
Or a light, to brighten it up.
Just me and you,
Your heart and mine,
Your hands and mine,
Your sweet kisses 💋 and mine,
And our hearts.,
Both,
Feeling feelings we never thought would ever be our utmost dealings.
Be the light of my life,
And I would hold on tight.

Article in an Afro-American setting.
The scene opens up on an elderly man, of the mid-'50s, and a middle-aged woman of about 35years of age.
Walking briskly to the man in front, she called out.
**Eve:** Hey, Mr. Thompson! Please hold on for a second.
She said touching him from behind with her fingers, in a bid to motion him to stop a bit.
**Mr. Thompson:** oh! Not again Eve, why now!
I mean, you always know how to show up when I'm in no mood to hang out. Look at me, do I look presentable at all. I ain't going nowhere with you., Not today, certainly!
~Eve, is taken aback by this. She comes to an abrupt stop...
**Eve:** Excuse you?? In no mood for what? I certainly don't even plan on hanging out with an old bone like you!
**Mr. Thompson;** Old bone., Hmm! Not as old as your dad's. (Sniffs)
~Eve gives him a stern stare.
**Eve:** Atleast dad's bones commemorates his age.. uhhm! How old are you again? And you look so "snatchy!"
**Thompson:** Enough eve! why are you here?
~ He moves closer to her, leans over to her ears, and says calmly.
"Don't think you will get away easily, I would deal with you!
**Eve:** like you deal with drugs and alcohol.
**Thompson:** No I don't!
Eve: yes you do!
Every of my sponsor is a god, exprience the godly letters from them
"No I don't" "yes you do" "No I d...!!"
"If you are arguing now, you are a dinosaur!
A voice from behind said aloud. On hearing this, both parties turned around to see who had the guts to say that.
**Eve &. Thompson:** Andrew!!
They said as they both rushed towards him.
**Andrew:** not like I refer to anyone, but!
Hello, any dinosaur home"
He said. Looking towards the directions of eve and Thompson.
"I mean., Sir dino, where is your saw?
**Eve:** Dino?? That's definitely not a name, and no one's answering that in here. So tell me, it is I you call a dinosaur right, together with sir T?
~Eve said as she walked closer to him with all audacity! Like she wants to choke the truth out of him, lol!
Thompson: yes! Who on earth were you calling a dinosaur, maybe it's her (he said pointing to eve). Because it's certainly not me. I'm not half a human-like her!
**Eve:** Half a human you say? Lol... Says a man that depends on "half a human" like me for assistance. Well done, **full cream milk!**
~Andrew couldn't help but laugh out loud., **"Full cream milk"**, he mimicked.
Thompson: hey boy, you started all of this. Now, who the hell did you call a dinosaur.
He said hooking Andrew to the wall, at his collar.
**Andrew:** I didn't mean to call you a dinosaur, I was actually asking for an SAW from DINo. Sir DINO!
As in, Dino-saw. The saw of Dino.
Eve and Thompson look themselves both in the eyes.
**Eve:** you know what, just sign these documents Sir T, we need to get out of here. It's so choky in here.
~Thompson signs the documents off, saying.
**Thompson:** why wouldn't it be choky for an ordinary cleaner .. a janitor (cleaner)!
**Eve:** oh wow! You call me a janitor, your generator!
**Thompson:** wait., What?
**Eve:** yes!! At least I'm a high-class janitor, and I'm nothing like you, who have been in this company for 10+ years and still no promotions, and you won't even recognize. When was the last time the manager passed the office and replied to your greetings or even send a "hi". When??
You see Thompson, a high-class janitor is better than a ghost worker. Ohh no! The managerial board must have been thinking you exist no more, sorry dude! You are more like a mammalian ghost worker.
Thompson has never been mocked like this his entire life.
**Thompson:** I give up!
**Eve:** Haha! I won, finally!
**Thompson:** your mates win the lottery, and here you are, winning a baseless argument.
**Eve:** baseless you may say, but so long as you are involved, it's a big Win.
**Thomson;** ohh! That.
Well, I can't argue with anyone.
Cause my name isn't Augustine that I would get angry too easily.
Okay, lover boy!
**Eve:** we should suddenly be heading back to the hub. we have spent a lot because of time.
**Thompson:** well, there isn't any WE, we don't both go by the surname **"Winfred".**
**Eve:** oh, wow! So, you belong to **TOM -TOM** factory, by going by the name Thompson. Or you a son of the business too?
She asked aloud, to get back at him.
**Thompson:** well, not bad! How about you. You eve, so you ain't scared
a bit, to come to earth with the same name as the first grand sinners! Oh no!
"You sure this cloth, isn't same with legendary eve's own? (touches the tip of her gown!)
**Eve;** really? I'm done here!
She says and tried to storm out. Then turns back around...
**Eve:** Sir T, I think you should go see a doc. Your dementia is intense.
**Thompson:** Dementia?
Ohh no! I never knew communicating with you, would cause me the loss of my memory, imp!
**Eve:** hmm! What's imp.
**Thompson;** it means important. (Imp)
Eve, about looking it up in the dictionary, when Andrew showed her the meaning on his phone. She couldn't believe it.
She chased Thompson screaming hard!
"Duck!! I pray you get a webbed foot anytime soon.
They kept exchanging words and just then, a voice rang up in their ears.
Thompson!!
Eve!
Where are my documents, you clowns...
It was their boss. She had been waiting for them at **GROOVE's HUB**, the main reception. Eve and Thompson just stared at each other, and hurriedly packed her stuff and handed it to her.
**Eve:** hey prof T.. come let's hang out. Bills on you.
**Thompson:** Nahh, old bones don't hang out!
Just then, she remembered her initial words to him😂😂
Its good thing he spared some duties to her, if not, been, and Thompson would enjoy the holidays and be officially dropped out.
Thanks, Ancestor!
Lucas comes on his own.
Thompson has been one of the most ama...

Thompson has been so adequate at service.
Not until he used .....

The Evil You Don't Know
"Baby!"
Olivia called out mildly as she gently opened the front door, and stepped into the house. Kingsley her husband was resting on the sofa when she entered, he stood up, hugged her, and proceeded in asking her how her day at work was.
**"Honey guess what?"**
"Uhmmm, they gave you the promotion finally?"
He asked bee happily.
" No they didn't, in fact, they delayed it again for months and said it may run into years if the company's financials are not taken care of as soon as possible.
"Ohh, that's so bad, I'm so sorry darling, don't worry, you would get a bigger one".
When he couldn't guess further, Olivia handed him an envelope and asked he should open it. In it was a later and he quickly read it. Funny enough, it was her promotion letter, he laughed and said to her.
"You again, you always pranking me"
They both laughed and he hugged her tightly, saying how proud he was of her. Due to her promotion, her salary increased., That meant good fortune for her and her family right?
Good!
Every of my sponsor is a god in human body read from them
The next day, which was a Saturday, Olivia woke early and dressed herself and her 10year old Sharon, in order to go to the salon to make their hair. She proceeded to the sitting room and told Kingsley. He offered to give her some money, but she told him not to worry, that she had some money on her, and from the looks of things, it would be able to pay for their hairdos.
Kingsley didn't probe further. When she got back, she got back home with some foodstuffs, and he asked her where she had gotten the money to buy them from, and she said it was from the little change that remained from their hair, and so she thought it wise to branch to the market and buy some foodstuffs because it was lacking in the house.
"Why did you have to do that., Listen, babe, I'm the man here and you should ask me for money to go shopping okay? Always ask me for money before heading to the market next time alright?
She felt a little embarrassed and all that. She didn't like the attitude her husband was giving her lately. She talked with her friend and this friend of hers by the name Annabel, who happen to be her best friend and she advised her that her husband was jealous of her money and insecure because she earned a lot, and whenever he confronted her, she should give it back to him in her own words.
Things kept happening, Olivia soon got a washing machine and told Kingsley about it. Kinsley was unhappy and stood from the sofa and left the parlor. While he was on his way out, Olivia had said that it was only being jealous and insecure.
"Insecure??" He slapped her in her face hard for that. So unlike him. He had never hit his wife.
Olivia was so angry, and burst into tears, at this Kingsley was so sorry for slapping her, but she didn't want to hear him out.
She told Anne her friend and all of these and she still attributed it to the fact that she earned more and Kingsley didn't like it at all.
She advised her to get a divorce with Kingsley, according to her, it's best for her to end things with Kingsley.
The thought of how Sharon their 10year old would feel about the sudden broke her. Kingsley wasn't sleeping at home because of his offense of slapping Olivia. Olivia wasn't getting the whole thing at all, she still proceeded with the divorce which her friend advised her to have.
Luckily her mom got to visit them both and persuaded her, giving her a million and one reason not to.
Her mom drove Ann from the house when she found out it was her feeding her daughter's ears with divorce. Olivia in a bid to apologize has gone to visit Ann at her home and to her greatest surprise, she heard Shoutings from outside. It was Ann's husband. He was beating her mercilessly. Olivia was so emotionally down that day, getting to know the kind of husband her friend got married to. She shared it with her mom and her mom was surprised.
"You mean her husband beats her and she didn't think of having a divorce, and here she is, advising to divorce your husband because of a mere slap. Take it from me, that lady is a devil and she only wants to destroy your home. She is definitely not your friend.
All these scenes got Olivia cracked up. Already, it's been over a week and Kingsley hasn't come home because of their misunderstandings. He came home and begged her that he was sorry., That he Misses her, the house, and Sharon. But Olivia refused to listen to him. Moreover, she laid the rent that month so it was typically her house.
Kingsley's best man came to speak to her on how Kingsley was sorry.,.that he hit her not because he wanted to, but because he wasn't in a right state and frame of mind. He had drank a lot the previous night and as a result of that, he was still tipsy when all these happened.
Olivia confronted Kingsley when he came home the next day with Sharon because he usually picked her up from school lately just so he could see her every day.
And then, she handed him the divorce papers.
"I've signed mine". She said., "Do well to sign your part."
Kingsley didn't know what to think, he was home emotionally destabilized. he explained things to his friend, and Tony advised they both have a drink to calm him down, but Kingsley stated he dropped drinking after slapping his wife under its influence, and here, his home and marriage are about to end.
Somehow, Olivia missed her husband, so she decided to go visit him to talk things out. She went to the address Tony had given her previously, she could see Kingsley's car outside, and then he was coming out of the main house with a pregnant woman that was in labor, holding her close and firmly, he put her in the car and drove off. This scene alone caught Olivia off guard. Does it mean Kingsley is cheating on her, it has been cheating on her for a long time now., Oh no!
She went home, stayed on the balcony for hours, deep and down in thoughts. However, her mom had noticed and come to ask her what the problem was. Emotional Olivia spilled it all out, and the mom told her that her husband is responsible, and maybe it's not what she thinks. She didn't want to believe it, but somehow she felt all the drama was baseless. I mean, it was just an accidental slap that caused all of these. Kingsley has never dared raise hands on her before, and he was nothing like Ann's husband.
The next day, there was a knock on her door and she went to open it when she found it was her fake and evil friend Ann.
**"What are you doing here?"**
"I am sorry Olivia, please forgive me. I didn't mean to push you to divorce your husband, if there is anyone that need to divorce, it's me.
"Then why didn't you divorce Fred, your husband after all the violent"
" Because I want to work things out with him, and I love him."
" Okay, why were you then pushing me to divorce mine.
" I'm so sorry Olivia, the fact is, I was jealous of what you and Kingsley shared. The Understanding, love, care , affection. You people's happy family got me jealous because mine was in no way near perfect or good. I'm so sorry, my jealousy made me advice you to do all of that, please forgive me"
Ann begged...
Olivia was shocked at this. Here is a lady that called herself been best friend but was ready to destroy her marriage.
"After this, we can't be friends anymore. Stand up and leave my house now!"
Olivia said standing with tears in her eyes. Ann got up and left. And turned back when she was at the door. "Kingsley is a very good and responsible man, I hope you fix things with him"
She left. Just then, Olivia's mom came in and told her " this is the last advise I would give you, fix up this Before it gets late."
She left, went to Kingsley's house and begged him to see his wife. Kingsley came, begged her that he was sorry and all that. With the way she loved him, she quickly forgave him and things went back to normal.
She apologized for feeling too proud and doing and buying things in the house without his consent. Even if she earned more, be deserves that respect as her husband.
His husband too apologized for taking things too personally. They sat and planned their lives together and financial goals as couples.
**In marriage, it doesn't matter who earns higher, let go of pride, and both parties shouldn't falter in their responsibilities either. Wives, respect your husband and don't act bossy. Husband's support them, love them and understand them. That way, you're making it easier for them to be more submissive.**

Hello friends, sorry i have not been active here to read your post. please pardon me , I have some unavoidable situations but I am back now
thanks for your understanding
You Have it Already.
Hello, it's Monday today, and I hope you know it's not just any kind of Monday, but the first Monday of this amazing new year, 2022.
Hmm, I know you've got a lot of amazing goals in your backpack, lol! And the good thing is, these goals, and dreams likewise, are waiting to burst all out.
Okay, you want to be successful right?
You want to be financially bourgeois, you want to do a lot and all that. I need to let you know that it all starts with you. Your mind, your relief, your hard work, your faith, it has a lot to play in this. How much do you believe in yourself?
How far do you think you can go with those dreams of yours?
How often do you think you may slake, be discouraged, or give up if the time isn't well taken care of?
All of these are questions you should ask yourself and take time to answer too. It's not all about having big dreams, aspirations, goals, and what have you. It's all about how much of those dreams you can be able to birth and make realistic. It's about how far you can take from my goals and my very big dreams. It amazed me that I was nothing near achieving it at all. But, you know what still kept that zeal burning deep hot in me?
I would tell you.
What made me still happy and keen about it, was the fact that I had started somewhere already. I certainly didn't do much, or yield much, but the realization that I had started my "goal-getting process", meant a lot to me. It gave me hope that someday, I would achieve it all. It made me believe so much in the potency of my dreams. Here I am, I'm not saying I've gotten all of them achieved, but I can say I've done so much than previous. And each step I take, the more self believe I come to get. The more I want to keep pushing. The more I want to stay till the finish line to see the good the more I want to continue and experience what being a total SUCCESS is. And the more I keep thriving.
Everyone has this dream we don't want to die before achieving, but sometimes, we prefer to die achieving them, or best, achieve them before we die. However be the case, how ready are we to start the process.
A wise man once said, success formula is one of the simplest looking formulas, but very tactical, and tough to apply.
SUCCESS = 95% perspiration/Hardwork, and 5% Inspiration/Dreams.
What do I mean? This means that., For maximum success to be attained, you just need to dream and work more. That's why 95% was accredited to hard work This is because nothing comes easy. We have to work for everything we want to get, gain, or achieve.
Every of my sponsors is a god.
"How ready are you", remains one of the ever BIG QUESTIONS regarding success, and it's their process Are you ready to begin your journey to financial freedom and liberty, are you ready to begin your journey to being a successful man or woman in your field of study, are you ready to harness that talent so well and prove and show to the world that you have a lot to offer you are worth than they think. Are you ready to take that high-income skill, technical skill, or a normally acquired skill to the next level? Are you ready to make a BIG NAME for yourself, are you ready to be amongst the renowned successful men and women of the 21st century?
You can do it! Do you know? Sadly, you may not know this, but this is me telling you that you can.
success doesn't happen in a day alright, it takes months, years, and years. Everything good takes time. It's a process, an intentional, but yet a gradual process. For you to last long in your success process till the finish, you have to believe so much in yourself.
When you have your self-confidence intact, the issue of others not believing so much in you becomes unimportant to you. It wouldn't hold water anymore. This is because you have found solace in your self-belief, and this alone can take you farther than you can ever think or imagine.
People tend to believe and support something that has been tested and proven trustworthy, real and worth sacrificing for. Don't expect humans, in their normal self centred nature to support your baby dream, vision or goal, when you are yet to prove the originality and potency of it all. No! It does work that way. Your concept, your little progress, brought to light by the courtesy of your determination and self believe would propel them to acknowledge and support you as time goes on. This is because your self believes, made them believe so much in your dreams and abilities. Even when there is little or no positive yieldings yet.
Strive to be Intentional about it all, it pays.
Believe in yourself If you can dream it, you can achieve it. If you can spell every word you pronounce, at least 99.5% of them, then you can achieve all your wild dreams if you are intentional, determined, prayerful, and above all, if you work hard smartly.
Remember, your self disbelieverought about your public discouragements and disbelieve too. People treat you based on how you treat and present yourself before them.
These up there, are top secrets of an intentional success process I am revealing you amazing human., This is because I feel you deserve to know this, and I know you wouldn't make the light of it at all, but put this to use.
Here is the key.,
✓Know what you want.
✓Scheme out plans on how to get what you want.
✓Develop self-confidence.
✓ Fill your friendship circle with like-minds as possible as you can.
✓Start trashing your goals gradually, from the very end you are, however small...
✓Keep working, keep learning, keep advancing...
✓Don't relent to keep trying out new things and new ways to go about your dreams, somehow, the right process that may work for you could just be found alongside all these many trials.
✓Keep making and taking brave steps. Don't be scared to do so. Every step is a step. However small it is., So long as success is earned it would always go a long way for you.
If you have done this, or as you keep doing this, always remember this is the FOUNDATION you are forming, so don't take the the the light of it.
With this in place, you have proven ever ready and determined. So don't dull, I want you going out there and trashing down your goals and dreams one after the other. Intentionally, persistently, but gradually. You sure would get to your desired height someday.
And I pray you to arrive and experience what SUCESS is, just in time.
Good luck as we keep trying.🖤

What Are You Thankful For?
A lot of things need happens in the lives of virtually every one of us. Sometimes, we get into trouble and somehow we scale through. It wasn't by our making that we always get saved when involved in an awful situation or situations, grace did. God's grace.,
I remember travelling home from school one summer holiday, due to the distance from home to school, which would take about 7hours drive normally. Along the way, our driver had followed a bushy path because of the traffic jam that was always on the highway. Trying to avoid the traffic jam and arrive at our destination before nightfall, he had decided to take another route. Unknown to him, that route was lately the hideouts for some criminals who dealtwithth human trafficking and robbery. So we were ambushed. With guns pointing at our heads, they were like 10 armed men. We were robbed of our belongings. I sincerely didn't have any spare cash aside from the transport fare I was yet to pay, of which I was robbed too. There were shootouts and out of 20 whole passengers, 10 got killed, 5 badly injured, 3 minorly injured, then I and a lady who managed to elude any form of injuries.
God saved me!
It wasn't my ability to dodge bullets that saved me. It wasn't my self-defence that did either. His grace singled me out amongst others and preserve and that lucky lady. Why shouldn't I be thankful?
This ain't all God did for me last year, being 2021. My results have been singled out amongst others that were scheduled to be cancelled. All off were cancelled, and mine wasn't. Wow!
That aside, I know how many business deals I closed last year. The majority of the city was for people I didn't know from anywhere. Somehow, I got connected with them miraculously. God did that for me. Men came through for me, people helped me in so many ways, I didn't ask but I was given this. God connected them to me.
Or will I say the life I live?
The maximum protection I'm given day after day. The fact is, when I'm asked what I'm thankful for, I have a lot I am thankful for.
Meet my amazing sponsors
This is because God has made himself manifest to me. He had come through for me years back, and most especially last year.
Listen amazing people, I don't know your story, and I don't know what your response would be when you are asked this question "What are you thankful for?"
But I would love to let you know this. There is a lot to be thankful for.
In the past years, last year, you may not have achieved all you wanted to achieve, you may have lost a friend, friends, a loved one, family, a special treasure and others. But still, God preserved you till today, the Second day of January 2022.
That's a lot to to be e thankful for.
You may say you don't have time Enough to appreciate God, your business, your family, your relationship.. and other issues you may have, that may be taking a lot of your time, and because of that, you are unable to spare some minutes to thank God.
Hey dear, God has done a lot for us in the previous years far gone. He has come through for us in different ways. Check well friend, you will find more than enough reason to be much more grateful. Looking over us is indeed a task he does every second of the day, singlehandedly.
He doesn't ask much from us, or does he?
No! He doesn't.
He doesn't bill us, he doesn't want our money,
All he ever wants is our praise and worship. Our love and love to others.
So why withhold this from God?
Why?
After everything... It isn't fair at all not to be grateful.
Within the last year, millions of people died, but you weren't in any way part of the deaths, because you stand tall today, alive and healthy. He kept you!
Each time I ponder on God's love, I'm moved to do a lot I can for him, in diverse ways. Maybe help someone, love others, forgive more, be grateful more... Just something to make him know and feel I'm thankful.
lot of us misplace what Thanksgiving is "Thank you" isn't all to Thanksgiving.
It's all about the heart of gratitude that goes with it.
Most of us say "thank you" emptily, with no iota of appreciation at all.
That's not how it ought to be.
We should be grateful at each point in time because we have every reason to be.
I don't know how thankful you have been in the past years, for the little and big ways God has come through for you, however, be the case, even if you haven't been so far, it's never too late to be grateful.
Hey, amazing human, this is me urging you to reminisce over your past, you will have more than a thousand reasons to be grateful. Even if you feel you have no reason to be, being alive is the lot reason.
Take out time and thank him, he deserves it.
God bless you as you do.
We try again this year, I pray we never get to toil so much to achieve all our desired goals this year.
Amen.
Codes For 2022
I happened to have a little bit of network in my current base., And so I thought it wise to let this known to you.
Firstly, congratulations on the last day of the year 2021, and happy new year
I hope you remember the goals you set earlier last year, that ain't accomplished yet. As you set new goals, discipline yourself to get them involved in your sucess schemes and see to it that they are accomplished.
Most importantly.,
✓ Anyone that stressed you this year, get ready to close their chapter from now being noon, till dusk. They are in no way permitted to follow you into your new year with such audacity to stress you.
✓ No matter how you love them, if they don't love you, or you seem to be the one pushing in that Relationship., You can give them a little time to make up, but if they don't, don't be scared to let them go. You deserve someone better.
✓ This year, set goals, follow them up till you attain your desired results, and even more. Don't stop learning.
That Talent you've got., Harness it! That skill you've laid hold on, keep advancing till professionalism, create your own unique concept, that profession, keep advancing in it. Build your financials, build your business, build your capacity, build your ministry.
This ain't the year to just live lives casually. You've got a goal right?
I'm sure you do. Make friends that are like-minded, success and goal-oriented. If your friends aren't ready to move as you move, if they ain't ready to step up their game and grow Intentionally., Change your circle of friends. Somehow, your altitude is determined by it.
Pay more attention to family, loved ones, your partners.. show them you care. Be more intentional about building a relationship with God. It would go a long way for you. Forgive, forget. Work more!
Don't just work hard, but work hard smartly. Don't work to change clothes, but to change the family situation.
***All images from*** ***unsplash.com***
Okay., It's a new year we are into right now, what are those goals you need to set to accomplish for the year?
What are those things you need to do?
Who are those people you need to reach out to?
At the beginning of every year, we are used to making out new year resolutions, visions, goals, and all that.
But I would love to let us know something today.
**What about the 2021 goals we didn't accomplish?**
I hope we are not planning to sleep on them and move on to other new goals we have set for 2022?
These unaccomplished goals deserved to be accomplished too. Even as we go about making new goals and resolutions., Let's also take our old goals and accomplish them too. Goals don't expire, it's the only age that determines if it can be accomplished or not. So now we are still in our goal-accomplishing phase of life, why don't we try to achieve them too, alongside our new goals.
This new year, strive to be different, Intentional, unique, and more industrious. So long as making it in life is one of your set goals., You must be ready to stand out.
Build your capacity, hold God tight. As you build your business, relationship, career, academic pursuit, and luxury, also establish a standing Relationship with your creator., God!
Without him, you wouldn't come anywhere far to achieving those dreams.
This year, get ready to remove toxic people from your lives.
Get ready to drop every bad attitude and be much better.
Get ready to be more demeaning, persistent, goal-oriented, prayerful, and determined.
Success in life doesn't happen in a day, it's a process that takes years and years to come. It's an intentional process that is carefully built and followed up.
Remember., How you start the year, determines how you finish it.
If you will finish strong or not, it all depends on your 2022 Foundation. So why don't you take your time and outline all you want to achieve and carefully follow them up.
Believe me, when I say, it would get to a point in time when it all feels like things ain't going your way. Maybe a first quarter, mid of the year, or third quarter. But., Always Remember this., **"NOTHING GOOD, THAT LASTS., COMES EASY!"**
This should be one of your watchwords. Take solace in it and you would thrive as time goes on.
MY sponsors are the best we have here,
thank you so much for encouraging me and helping me to do more

You are in the molding stage of your life, don't neglect it. It's your time to work like you have no one else to turn to, and your time to pray like you are indisposed to be able to work.
Years like these, make you or break you. They determine your altitude. They determine where you would be in a few years time, they determine how far you would be able to hold unto your trials before you break or succumb to the clutches of failure, if at all you will.

Stolen Memories
Peter!
Peter!!
Peter!!
Kahlen called out, as she kept searching through various pathways. Peter had been missing for hours and was still unfound. He didn't leave any message behind as to where he was headed to, or rather still come a little earlier so they didn't have to worry.
Here they were, still looking for him and it was almost dusk.
Kahlen, Cara, and Fred continued the search for the days that followed. They couldn't even think of losing their best swordsman, family, and friend in this shitty mission. They have been on this mission for months now, looking for an ancient wooden box, which their ancestors had died in the process of saving it from getting into the hands of Munroe's great grandfather. The box, according to ancient history, is said to contain certain powers., And whoever opens it first, would be filled with those powers and would become immortal, and undefeatable by anyone or anything, and would be able to control the world. Now, they were on a quest to retrieve the box from a certain cave, before Munroe lay's hands on it.
All four have to be in good spirit till they reach their last cross junction before the final battle to take the box to safety. So they had to do everything in their power to find Peter.
***(Askamaya's hideout)**
"What do you want from me? Peter asked. He was tied to a broad table, hands, and legs towards the east and west direction. The man in question, drew closer to him in the dark, with face masked till the finish.
"I want nothing much for you" the man retorted, as he kept walking closer with a globe in his hands, which emitted light. He went to Peter's right-sided brain and put it very close to it. There was a great emission and infusion of light as it caused Peter to give off a loud scream.
Ahh!!
Kahlen and the other two never kept searching since it's been 5days and still nothing of Peter was heard. Just then, she could see a make figure that looked so much like Peter's.
"Peter? Is that you?
She asked as she kept drawing closer. Cara and Fred were also alarmed by this and drew closer.
Just then, Peter came into sight, looking pale and unhealthy. They took him into their camp and made him lay close to the fire they had made to keep warm. They asked him what happened that he went missing for days, and to their dismay, he could say nothing. They felt something was wrong, but still, theft attributed it to fear of just being recovered.
They kept walking and then a small village came into sight. Kiv was a small village with mere villagers eating and feeding on their produce since 98% of them were all farmers.
Two days in the village, Kiv started recording the deaths of their villagers, and some of them wounding massively. An emergence investigation was carried out, with kahlen as the lead investigator, since she was made a prosecutor because of the powers of discernment she had.
The investigation process began getting tough, and the villagers have come to the conclusion that the killer would be burnt at the stake. Seeing things were tough, Peter decided to confide in kahlen. He explained he was the killer, and he had sneaked out to her place two nights back and had gotten into a fight with her since she discovered his presence at her place. She has scratched him with her nails at his neck before he stabbed her in return, and that is how she died. He said pointing to the area on his neck he was scratched. But kahlen could see nothing.
She discussed his confindings with Cara and Fred, and what she felt about the whole thing. To her, Peter may have killed the woman but she didn't see any scar at all on his neck. And from the way things turned out, the scar was indeed a deep one. How come it wasn't visible to him.
There was another man, who was campaigning for the prosecution of the killers, whom kahlen was in deep suspicion of.
She decided to let Cara and Fred know, and he was being monitored.
Another case was brought up about theft, and another man was brought as a victim. He confessed all that happened and how he has gone to her farm and collected her produce.
My sponsors are the best we have here click to read their posts
"He must be hanged on the stake" the suspicious man by the name of Greg had told kahlen and other village officials.
He went into the village and assembled men that set up the stake on which Peter and the other man would be burnt.
While he left, Cara got to see this particular scar on Greg's neck.
"Kahlen, did you say about a scar that late woman gave her killer? Cara asked. And kahlen answered in the affirmative.
"I just saw that man Greg, with the exact scar as mentioned by Peter. I think he is the killer"
Kahlen moved out and had to go see about the scar herself. And indeed it fitted the description Peter has earlier given.
They proceeded to hang Peter and the other man at the stake since they didn't have to prove enough to concur to what Cara and kahlen had found out., And just then a woman had come into sight shouting and pointing at Greg., "That is the man that killed my sister"
This all proved khalen and Cara wanted, and just immediately Greg had tried to cut the rope in order to foster the killing of Peter and the other man faster. But good thing Fred was close by and he stopped him.
They fought till Greg's surrender. They captured him, took him into the inn, and got him interrogated. He was too had to tell the truth, and kahlen had to use her discerning powers to get the truth to the limelight.
It happened that Greg was responsible for the death of the late woman, the theft, and other times too. What he did was simple., After committing his evil deed, he would get someone and use his 'instrument' and he called it, take away their memory and infuse the memory of all the evil acts he did and everything that transpired. And the person would own up to the crime he didn't do for his sake., Remembering all Greg did, but thinking he/she did it.
Such evil! Kahlen lamented.
"Can I see this instrument of yours? She asked.
" Yes you can"
He went and brought a globe. He explained he would put this next to his right-sided brain after an evil act is done. And by so doing, all the memories of all that transpired would be saved in the globe. And when he gets his human prey, he would put this globe next to his brain and his own memory would replace theirs, and they would own up to his crimes.
This was exactly what he did to Peter and the other man.
And they would have nearly paid up for crimes they knew nothing about. Their memories were wiped off and they dwelt on the memories of another.
Good thing the late woman's sister had seen him. Probably, the Innocents would have died and the guilty left living freely and committing more crimes.
The globe was seized from him and kept hiding in a safe hideout no one would ever acess again., And Greg paid dearly for it., Via stake hanging.
My Lady MY Vow
**Get out of this office now!**
Mike Henshaw yelled. Aquila felt the brunt of everything and left his office sober. She had given the **CEO of TAN GROUP OF COMPANIES,** Mr. Yang, a wrong document to sign. Her boss, Mike Henshaw was very upset with her. Her continuation with the job depended on if she could be able to get Mr. Yang to sign the right documents again.
Aquilla didn't know what to do. Mr. Yang wasn't always mobile. He made so many trips to different places around the world, and he wasn't easily gotten to be booked for visual meetings. Her, being able to have him sign the first wrong papers, were simply by chance, and she didn't know if she would be able to get the chance to get to see him again, let alone sign the papers., She had until the next 2 weeks to do that.
She proceeded home that day, bounced on her desk, and began making a series of researches about Mr. Yang, his business, and his family.
From the researches she made, she got to find out that he had just a son, Haivan, who was heir apparent to his many chains of businesses. His wife, lady Keirra, was a fashion model and was currently in Europe. So many miles away from Asia. She dug deep into his business details and got to find out that he was amongst the first five highest-ranking business owners in Asia. And was highly respected.
**"Where is Mr yang located currently..."**
All Images are from unsplash.com https://unsplash.com/
She kept searching for his actual location. Soon she got to find out that he went to the united stated for a meeting with Mr. President. And he would stay up till 3weeks.
How on earth was she going to fly all the way from South Korea, Seoul, in Asia, to the US?
She really had to think fast. The next day she packed up her things, hurriedly went to withdraw some cash from liberty bank, and there, she had stumbled on Haivan, Mr. Yang's son.
"What is he doing in Asia?" She had asked herself silently. She began trailing him.
He entered a cap and headed straight to the embassy. She too trailed him from behind with her car, giving an Inconspicuous distance.
Haivan stepped down and headed in, while Aquilla still followed behind Trailing. As soon as he ended entering an office, she stood very close to the door, eavesdropping on their conversation. She found out that he would be leaving for the U.S.A the next day, and his flight would kick off by 4 pm. He had to join his dad in the executive meeting in the US, as the heir apparent. So she came up with a plan.
She would try to hook up with Haivan, so he may consider traveling with her, or rather still, get close to him in order to get easy access to his dad to sign the documents.
The hotel Haivan was to lodge in that night, Aquilla had to find her way in, luckily, the hotel had a club party and he would be in attendance too. She disguised herself as a high star model, by the name of **Lucy.** At the club, she had dressed gorgeously, wearing a red dinner gown, with blue accessories, a very expensive Balenciaga hill, and she was more than gorgeous. Haivan as a guy saw her at the counter, and immediately, took a liking to her. He went up to her, trying to start up a little conversation. Aquilla., Now Lucy knew what she wanted, so she made it a lot easier for him. They got along, went over to his travel since he came alone, and then had a nice time dancing. The following day, Aquilla made sure she got to the airport, an hour before their departure time. She studied every nook and cranny of the airport and quickly knew where best she could stay to be seen by Haivan more quickly.
Immediately Haivan stepped down from his limousin, he looked around, and she came closer in his direction, in the pretense of heading somewhere else. And just as planned, he noticed her.
"Heyy... You again?" He asked as he admired her from up till down, so alluring.
"Hi, Haivan., What are you doing here?
She asked, pretending not to know.
"I'm on a trip to the US today.
" Wow, same with me.
"VIP?" He asked.
Nah! Second class.
She replied.
My sponspors are the best here,check out their posts
" Okay., How about I pay for your trip as VIP since we are both heading to the same country. At least, my little way of saying thank you for accepting my hand of friendship?
"Well, it would be mean for me to say no to your offer., Thank you Haivan., I appreciate. I'm saying yes to you!
Wow, everything went smoothly just like that, she was so happy her plans were going smoothly. They proceeded with the flight, and when they got to the US.
Haivan still wanted to spend quality time with her.
To him, he had found someone he had a soft spot for and was bent on making her his if possible, to Aquilla, or let's say camouflage Lucy., She was just fulfilling all odds to get her precious documents signed.
Being the rich guy Haivan is, he spoiled her throughout the first week in the US. They got along so well, they would go clubbing all night, go sightseeing, go shopping, and all that. They enjoyed every moment of it. All this while, Aquilla never took time to see and appreciate the handwork of God on Haivan. She never knew how handsome he was till now.
**On one of the trips, she had taken time to view him, inside out. He was a calm gentle young man, handsomely built, cute face, cat eyes, thin red lips, full beards, curly hair, about 5'3 inches tall and light-skinned.**
He was more like a model. He was beautifully made. At this moment, Aquilla got to know whom she has been dining with all this while. She never saw these awesome features of him because she was just bent on following protocols, regarding her business and document signing.
Haivan had come to love this lady, he could never picture his life without her anymore.
He told her the feelings he had for her, and he wanted to make her his woman.
Seeing how things were turning out to be, Aquilla had to let things known to him. She told him Lucy was only but a camouflage, and her name was Aquilla. And she loved him. But she wanted a favor from him, of which her life and career depend. She told him, she wanted his dad to sign some business documents.
To her surprise, he didn't probe her Further. He left the next morning and came back at noon with an already signed document.
Aquilla couldn't contain her joy.
To her, she has accomplished her sole aim of traveling, and she felt it was time to cut things off with Haivan. But the dude didn't want to hear of it.
**"I love you, and I want to marry you...**
Haivan kept telling Aquila, but she didn't know if it was actually loved she felt for him, as she didn't always involve emotions in her business dealings.
She worked her travel visa ahead of the scheduled time and traveled back to Asia without Haivan's notice.
When he found out, he was pained and hurt.
He was ever determined to find her. And so, as soon as the meeting in the US was concluded, he came back to Asia.
Looked for her everywhere. And luckily, he found her.
**"Let me marry you Aquilla. You alone complete everything that can ever make me a man. "**
He was a noble, and she was a commoner. Can she ever get married to the son of one of the biggest companions in Asia?
True or not, she had to follow her heart. And it was a yes!
Fuvk business protocols, and career. She's found love in a man, and she was ever determined to keep him.
**Love would always come first.**

Love In Brainstem
Grin Grin!
Annabel's phone rang continuously. At the third ring, she dashed out of her room and picked up the phone.
"Hello?" She said.
The conversation she had with the unknown caller wasn't really in hearing, but after the call, Annabel was tensed up with Fear and anxiety. She hurriedly ran to take her purse, then car keys, and headed outside.
She kept calling Leah, but her line wasn't going through. She headed to St Catherine's hospital, where Bryan had been admitted a few minutes ago.
Bryan, her boyfriend was unfortunately involved in a car accident between his personal car and a trailer. He happened to have lost control of his car brakes, and bummed into the trailer, resulting in an accident that left him unconscious. Luckily, onlookers had called the ambulance for him, which has rushed him to the hospital before Annabel was called because she happened to be the last person he spoke with before the accident.
Annabel couldn't help but cry out her eyes, seeing Bryan's pitiable state. From what the doctor said, he would take time to heal, as his brain and spine were damaged, he would be using a wheelchair, but Just for a maximum of 3months, since the fracture wasn't a severe one. The doctors also stated his chances of having dementia, a sickness indicating loss of memory.
Annabel was torn apart, does it mean Bryan would regain consciousness and not remember all they shared?
She consoled herself with the fact that he would be okay soon, at least the cold hands of death didn't take him. She decided she would always come around so he gets to be one of the friends he would have to meet in this new life of his.
Bryan spent 3months at the hospital, getting better. With Annabel always visiting him from time to time.
2weeks before his discharge, Bryan was kidnapped. Annabel couldn't hold it anymore.
She had to start investigating and left, And there's too much There is little for a change.
She couldn't get to him somehow, somehow, another girl who had always loved Byran had gotten to him, gotten familiar with him, and more like began dating him.
It took Annabel months to find where her lover was staying, and it broke her to see Christine, have Bryan all to herself.
It was her and Bryan all those years, while Christine was always the one looking for attention.
Now, she had defeated her in some way.
Annabel never accepted defeat, she kept trying to show her face to Bryan, who was not Alex by name, by chance just if he would remember but her didn't. One day, while she went to the grocery store to get some stuff, Bryan, now Alex had strolled in too.
"Bryan" she called coming close to him.
"Who is Bryan?", he asked!
At this, Annabel knew there was something really wrong. She just had to win him over by starting a new friendship with him,.there and now.
She reintroduced herself as Annabel peters, and him as "Alex Romeo".
They started off again as pretty good friends..
Alex, never went any where without the company of Annabel, somehow he was attracted to her, and he couldn't understand why too.
While he sat next to her, over a cup of wine, he could see flashes of things run down his memory."Anny!"
Who is she.. he would ask Annabel?
But Annabel didn't want him to find out she was also excited in his past life, told him it was all an illusion.
He got to love Annabel more deeply than he did Months back as Bryan. Annabel was so fulfilled as a lady, she quit school for 6months, just to be with the man of her dreams, Hoping he gets better, and now here he is., Recovering and sound. Even though he can't remember his past.
Christine, who saw she was losing out from both ends quickly decided to tell Alex his past as Bryan, tracing every accusation to Annabel as the master-minder of the accident that made him be enslaved of dementia.
While she said all of these, flashbacks came in a hurry to Alex's brain, much more than he could contain.
He could see Annabel and also discovered he had loved her too in his past, just the way he does now, but more.
He got to remember how slyful Christine has always been. While all of these happened, he heals his head in pain screaming, while Christine made her way out of the hospital without raising the least alarm.
Alex was diagnosed again. Because of what made him fall into trance, the doctor decided he wouldn't allow anyone to visit, so they don't remind him about anything in a negative way. So it doesn't cost him permanent brain damage, and eventually death.
Because of this, Annabel couldn't see Alex for 3 good weeks. deep down, she kept hoping he was okay.
She would dress each morning, go to the hospital, and drop beautiful rose flowers by his window, that was exactly what he normally did for her when she was sick, those years as Bryan.
She would watch him sleep off from a distance, and wish she could eliminate whatever caused him pains.
On the fourth week, she was allowed to go see him, and when she got there, Alex was seen to be sleeping, but in the actual sense, he wasn't.
She knelt by his bed, resting her head on his bed and holding his hands.
Just then, she could hear music..
Her Favourite one at that. The one Bryan composed for her last year.
The music that consoles her soul and reminds her that she is loved by him.
At first, she thought she was in a trance, not until he raised his bee chin up and planted an affectionate kiss on her thin red lips.
**"I remember everything about you now, I don't care about others, but you have been a major part of my old life and this new life I've come to find...**
Can we start all over again Anny?"
Annabel couldn't hold back her tears, for months she had been waiting for the day her Bryan would come back to her.
All images are from unsplash.com https://unsplash.com/
"Yes, I agree"
She said, and she drew closer to him, kisses and hugged him tightly.
It was later discovered that Christine was behinds Alex's accident.
She was the master-minder. And when she saw he survived it, without being confined to a wheelchair, she paid the doctor to make sure he administered something that would foster a permanent brain loss so that he would be unable to remember Annabel, and then she could come into the picture. But if eventually she couldn't, she would let him waste as a disfigured adult.
**Unfortunately, love healed his lost memory. Love made him find life again**
Brought gave a new meaning to his life.
She was sentenced to 14years imprisonment for attempted murder.
Love indeed heals.🖤
**Thanks for reading people, and see you tomorrow**

We are still on the celebration of Christmas amazing people., Merry Christmas.
Yesterday was a wonderful time. Aside from the stress brought about by the responsibilities of the festival. It was wonderful.
So many of us merry this season, and forget to take love with us. Christ loved us to come and die for us, and today, we are Celebrating his birth even as Christ loved us, it is good we catch a lot of fun moreover is he and his love we are celebrating.
So today, after the numerous cooking and result draining activities, we did than usual.
We went out, helped a widow with her daughter of 8 years.
We are planning on visiting the orphanage soon too. And doing some others as God empowers us to do.
Some people have all, our little show is kindness would mean a whole lot to them. Sometimes, these are the times to show so many people around us love and kindness.
By showing love during this season, it shows you love and appreciate everything God did by letting his son to earth to be born and die for you, and all Jesus did for us too.
Do you have a jacket you aren't using anymore
Go out, look for someone in the streets, give it to them., They would appreciate it.
Do you have some cash you can spare, find someone and bless his Christmas with it?
Do you have some extra foodstuff? some widows and orphanages have nothing to eat during this periods. How about you do some charity for them by today.
Go out, love all the way.
That's the essence of Christmas.
Loving humanity just the way Christ loved us, and even more.
Helping people around that are needy because we care.
Let's keep the balance about Christmas, don't just do the merriment alone., I know it's your money, but a little help from you to others would always go a long way. Even if it's one person, it has a way of transforming lives for good.
This is the time to bless the lives of people that have been a blessing to you in so many ways this year.

Christ-Mas:Things you have to know
It's yet another wonderful festive season, regarding the celebration of Christ. Seasons greetings my amazing readers and friends.
PS; Christmas means the mass of Christ, (the celebration of Christ)
I remember doing a routine at my house every Christmas Eve, and Christmas morning too. How mum would lecture us on the scriptures, regarding the birth of Jesus. Growing up with this information, meant so much to me. I came to love God so much for sending down his son to us, Jesus, for being willing to come down to earth for our sakes, Mary, for agreeing to conceive him, and Joseph, for accepting to take pregnant marry as a wife.
The drama, surrounding Christ's birth, taught me a lot. Of which simplicity isn't left out.
So last night, being Christmas Eve, mum lectured us as usual. Reading from the holy book of the Bible, in the book of Luke 1 vs 28-50.
This talked about the approach the holy spirit had with Mary.
The greetings offered her by the holy spirit, was everything.
He said " Hail, thou that is highly favored, the Lord is with thee.. blessed are you amongst women.
Ohh! How humble Virgin Mary was.
When she heard she would beget a son, she humbly asked., "How do I get pregnant without no knowledge of a man?"
Well, trust God to do the impossibilities. She didn't have to meet a man to conceive, for the power of God overshadowed her flesh.
Remember, by this time, Elisabeth her cousin was already pregnant with John the Baptist for 6months. And the Bible said when she went to see her in the hills of Judah, on seeing her, ***John the Baptist leaped in Elisabeth's womb...***
Wow!
Okay, fast forward to the time of his birth.
The Lord Jesus, who did so many great things, miracles, signs, and wonders, and whom we celebrate greatly today, was born in the most shabby place anyone could think of.
**A manger!**
Where Horses and animals are kept.
Do you mean Jesus didn't even enjoy the pleasure of a midwife or nurse at least?.. Ohh no!
He was born, and yet narrowly escaped killing by the king Herod of those days.
King Herod, out of envy since Jesus was the prophesied Messiah, who would rule from the kingdom of David, decided to abort God's vision and purpose in him, by attempting to kill him.
But God preserved baby Jesus. How kind!
Jesus grew and waxed strong, starting his ministry in one of the temples at age 12, teaching elderly men., With great understanding.
He continued teaching and gathering men such as Peter, James, John, Judas, Phillip..and 7 other men as disciples. For they were 12 in number.
Together, they did wonders, Jesus went around doing good, healing the sick, showing people the right ways to live, the right things to do that please our heavenly father, the almighty God.
His first miracle was the miracle of turning water into wine, at the wedding at Cana. He did so many great miracles too. Raising Lazarus from the dead, feeding of the 4000 and 5000 men, healing of Jarius daughter, healing the woman with the issue of blood that has been up for 12 good years... casting out demons, healing the lame man at the pool of Bathsheba, healing the ten men with leprosy, of which only one returned to give thanks to him, and him alone was made whole.
Jesus did a lot of good. Bringing peace and light to the hearts of men.
At 33years, he was crucified, courtesy of the betrayal of one of his disciples, by the name of JUDAS ISCARIOT. He betrayed him with a kiss on the morning he went to Galilee to pray alongside Peter, James, and John. For 30 pieces of silver.
He was beaten for our sakes
He was brutalized for our sins
He was assaulted for our wrongdoing.
It was because of us he died.
It was because of our sins, even God the father, had to look away from him because of the sins her carried., Our sins
It was out of love he came down to earth, to live life so we can know how best to live righteously.
It was out of compassion, he decided to come down to save us from sin, and redeem us back to God.
After all of these and lots more not mentioned in this little piece of mine.,
**Why shouldn't this KING of KINGS be celebrated?**
Why shouldn't we jubilate over the day set aside for the celebration of our Messiah?
December 25th, may not be the exact day Christ was born, but this day was set aside for the celebration of his birth. So we should do that gladly, with love and compassion in our hearts.
While we celebrate, we shouldn't forget that Christ is the reason for this celebration, and love is the theme of this celebration. So enjoy, jubilate, eat, drink, and make merry today being Christmas.
**But don't forget to show people around you love today.**
The Lord Jesus would forever be happy when you do that.
Meanwhile, today will be a little bit hectic for me..
I would be butchering that plumpy and fat chicken in a few hours' time. I hope I don't get to wrestle with it eventually 😂
Wish me luck.
**Merry Christmas to you amazing friends and fans** ❤️
I wish you the best out of this celebration. Don't forget that Christ remains the reason for Christmas, and love should be the theme of it.
Love and light Amazing people.🖤
Count down to 2022.
See you there!
@princessbusayo my God will bless you, thanks for renewing your sponsorship. I love you
Anual Homecoming
So, it's Christmas season again, and I'm super duper excited. Christmas celebrations are done differently in various places and by various people too.
Now., Let's talk about my place.
My country.
I'm an African man, whose country is Nigeria. And we have a lot of ethnic groups and languages too. Irrespective of the diverse traditions. In a season like this, everyone is just so excited about it.
We paint our various residential cities with ribbons, from pole to pole, Christmas lights, and trees at each corner of the street, reminding passers-by of the season we are into. You would not walk up to 10foots, without hearing a Christmas song, blaring from one shop or the other on the streets. The best are in hotels., Ohh!
How beautifully designed hotels will be this season. Especially in big cities such as Lagos, Portharcourt, Owerri, uyo.. to mention a few.
It's more like a competition to me when I see the luxurious designs ranging from hotel to hotel. I think this is a strategy too, to attract the bigger men to come lodge in with their ladies, and people in their friendship circles.
The Christmas season is always that time of the year when there will always be an increase in everything in the market, down to the least. Well, it is expected we spend most of our savings throughout the year during Christmas., So sellers would make a lot of profit during this season. And for average people, this is what we do.
We buy and stock our houses with food items just a month or so before December before the prices are inflated. And it saves us a lot since we have little to spend compared to the DON's of the area. (The big boys).
Well, as a simple person, this celebration is always exciting for me. I would go for Christmas service in the morning, just after I and the rest of my siblings, with the support of mom., Have finished preparing the usual Fried rice and chicken. As the guy in the house, butchering the chicken has always been my role. So that's what I do, then join the ladies in the kitchen, cut some veggies if not yet cut, gist while the food is being cooked.
**Did I mention I was from an average family too?**
I guess I didn't. Okay., My family isn't rich, and we ain't poor either. But by God's grace, we earn just enough to fend for our needs. As Christians, aside from the jolly and flexing part of Christmas, I and my family takes it upon ourselves to do some charity to the less privileged, as much as we can.
We bundle up clothes that are good, but outgrown by us, we buy new ones to add, half bag of rice, about 25 balls of onions, a carton of biscuits, a carton of juice, some pairs of shoes, varying in sizes, beverages, soap, detergent, toothpaste, half paint of crayfish and most lastly, some few enveloped cash to spare. We do this every year for as long as I can remember. Courtesy of my mum. In her voice; "Christmas isn't about the merriment, showing love on that day and within that period, is very important. That's the real definition of Christmas".
Wow! I'm grateful for mum. She actually thought us a lot about festive periods.
**Aside from that,** we cook and give out to neighbors and friends too. Lol, there is this particular church member of ours, a family too. They are more like neighbors since their house is just a stone's throw from ours. The wife and children are always bent on eating our meals because they are certain it's fried rice. We love theirs too, though it's mostly rice and stew, it's tasty.
**The real thing**
After 25th December, we then pack our stuff to travel to see grandma in the village.
While all these are going on, the streets are lit with so many vibes.. with kids, teenagers, and sometimes youths, shooting some loud and in-destructive mini bombs, we call "KNOCK-OUTS"
It makes sound like guns and that alone alerts the entire neighborhood that it's Christmas.
We travel home, and this is the real homecoming. We get to see distant relatives we haven't seen throughout the year, we get to see our grandma. Grandfather died over 30 years ago. Fortunately, it's just my maternal mom that's alive, so we go to see her during Christmas. Offloading a lot of foodstuffs, stockfish, groundnut oil, Maggi, cooking spices, salt, rice, mostly one bag, Dry fish, carton of noodles, biscuits, and juice for the children of my mom's relatives and siblings that will come around too.
It's just so fun, waking up to the cold harmattan, getting into the bush, and picking up already fallen sweet Udara seeds (Cheer). Taking a break from cooking with gas, and experiencing what cooking with the firewoods is like.
Playing and making new friends amongst relatives, welcoming visitors at the house all evening, and then, enjoying the comfort of steady electricity all through the night. **The only put-off to me** is the network that may not be always stable due to the fact we are in a rural place.
The Christmas season is indeed fun. You get to see your distant loved ones, taste what it means to live a village life. Go to the rivers and swim, go to festivals such as **"Amala day"** between communities, dancing and try to win a prize.

Enjoying simple life and seeing what it means to be back to your Root.
I love Christmas. It's not just all about celebration and enjoyment, but about love and care, helping and kindness to people around us. Relatives and non-relatives.
**Merry Christmas in advance, and a happy new year too.**
See you in 2022.🖤

Trapped In The Clutches Of Love
It's not been up to 6months., Agnes has already started regretting getting married to Ken. Why?
This is because, Ken would always come back home late at night, and leave so early in the morning. He doesn't have time for her again. Each she complains about his behaviors, he would attribute it to work. And ask her "isn't it the luxury, comfort, and money you've always wanted? that's what I am hustling for "
This very statement always got her pissed off.
Where was her loving and romantic husband she had met 1 year ago before agreeing to settle down with him after 6months of knowing each other?
That same work Ken complained about being too tight on him, was the same work he has always been doing, in fact, they both worked there when Agnes was doing her IT defense, and it was then Ken approached her.
This same work, allowed him to have all the fun with her while dating her., He never complained of things so tight in him.
Now he had finally gotten her trapped in a marriage with him, he suddenly changed overnight. He doesn't call or text her anymore. When she calls sometimes no response, sometimes it's declined. And when she complains., "It's work" as he would always say.
So many times, Agnes had forced herself to stay awake till ken comes back, and she would notice some feminine perfumes on his T-shirt, sometimes red female lip gloss.
**Was Ken cheating on her?**
Well, she wasn't shocked. The rumors she had heard about Ken were getting too much. How he flirted with almost every lady that came his way, going to nightclubs and making a fool out of himself. Now, innocent Agnes would feel the brunt of it all in this very cage she calls a marriage.
***Throwback***
My sponsors are the best we have here,click to see their posts
One evening, Ken decided to hang out with Agnes on a Sunday, in one of the Chinese restaurants close by. On getting there, she had placed her order, and Ken had gone to the counter to see to if their food items were delivered correctly, as the sweet man he was always playing to be.
While Agnes sat Alone to the comfort of her phone., A lady came up to her and asked.
"You must be Agnes.,Ken's new catch?"
She didn't like the way she was termed " **new catch**", but she just went on ahead to answer politely.
"Yes I am, and who are you".
Well, who I am doesn't really matter. But what I can tell you is that I am one of the many girls Ken has played. And I am here to warn you, sweetheart., Leave Ken alone. He is never serious about marrying you. Even if he is, he is a cheat. He can never get his sexual desires from one woman. You would grow up to discover you are more in an Entanglement where you can't do anything in a relationship.
Leave him now you can., Don't get married to him. Soon you would understand what I'm saying today, soon you would remember my words, but I hope it won't be too late to say NO".
Just then, Ken came in.
Angel!! Haven't I asked you to stop pestering my life? I said I don't want you again, can't you see in already into this beautiful angel., He said squeezing Agnes' hands lightly.
"Ken, what was the meaning of all she said," Agnes asked a bit alarmed.
"Forget about that girl called Angel., She is a loser. She's doing all of this to get back to me, but I love you to the moon and back, so it's just you I want and no one else. "
On hearing this, Agnes felt more relaxed. She has come to love Ken with all her heart, and she was really convinced he was the one.
Along with one of their numerous outings, she had encountered a strange guy, whose stare always made her uncomfortable from day1 she had seen him in one of the business meetings she had gone with Ken as his secretary. That was their first outing together. Everything was too English and official since she wasn't in the banking world. And then she sighted Femi Davis.. so charming and alluring, she could feel her heart moving out to him at first, a fire in her ignited as he turned and gave her a wink, that left her blushing real had. With that, she momentarily forgot about the boredom of which she was at the center of.
Unfortunately, he had entered an office, his office probably., And she didn't get to see him till they left. Since then, she always wished to see him again and be friends with him at least. She just took a liking to his personality.
They had met again at the same restaurant, weeks after that encounter, but they didn't get to talk. She was just given the benefit of admiring the handsomely built man from a distance. She loved it anyways.
As a lady of 25, that just convocated from the University, she had discussed with Ken to complete her master's before they get married, but he insisted they get married, and then she's free to pursue her education. And they agreed on no babies till she's done with her school. Pretty cool. she thought since Ken typically agreed to her proposal.
***HAPPENING NOW***
Now, Agnes is emotionally down. Left in a luxurious mansion all by herself. No friends, no family..she can't think of going to her mom's place just within 6months, their marriage was still young and she didn't want her parents to think there was something wrong between her and Ken.
She had discussed picking a master's form to apply but Ken was against it. The same person that agreed before there for married., Now she was married to him, her hands are tied.
When she reported him to his parents, and her parents, to his parents, they called a meeting to hear from both parties. And Ken bluntly stated that it's because of her refusals to giving him babies that's making him distant.
Agnes would not hear of it. To her, if her husband failed in the responsibilities of giving her time and attention now it was just both of them, he would never do so when she gets pregnant. And she didn't want so much stress when pregnant. So she had to forget about having babies for now till her marriage is fixed up.
She had strolled down to the restaurant she had first gone to with Ken, to reminisce over been marital problems. And then the waiter gave her a card. On it www boldly written., "Can I come to sit, I think something is wrong, maybe I can be of Help".
When she asked the waiter who that was, she had pointed at a dashing young man, and behold it was bee longtime admirer, FEMI DAVIES.
They got along pretty well from then, and she confided in him about a lot which he helped her with. Soon, Ken got them arrested. Femi especially, reason: for hanging out with a married woman.
How wack!
His mom bailed him the next day, as the police made sure he slept in his cell that night. Agnes too slept in the cell since she couldn't leave Femi behind like that. After the bail, Femi's mom warned him seriously to stay away from her. That there are other fine and better Ladies., Why does it have to be another man's wife.
They stopped getting in touch again, and it hurt Agnes. She had lost someone more like her elder brother and best friend. Well, life has to go on.
She filed a divorce with alimony of 30 million, which Ken ended up paying 15million.
She started life again, forgetting about relationships since she was just 27., And more Intentional about growing her finances and business. Femi's mom became a very good customer after she had helped her with emergency supplies. When she got to know it was the same Agnes she has asked her son not to see again, she felt sorry.
Well, ladies, be very careful of whom you marry. Not everyone would be able to follow up for a divorce. Ken tried refuting the charges, stating he still loves his wife and wanted he back. That would have been disastrous for Agnes as she couldn't spend one more day under his roof. Good thing her dad was a lawyer, so he uses his attorney for her.
Ken ended up marrying one of the spoilt rich girls he has impregnated, who refused to abort it for him
Serves him right.
And Agnes got hooked up with Femi again, indeed this was actually how it was meant to be from the start.
He was so supportive of her and her business, and they got married in 6month's time.
Living happily ever after.
**Marriage decisions should be carefully taken.**

*****Season Greetings:*****
It's You, Over And Over Again
It's funny how we don't get to believe that we are responsible for anything that happens to us, good or bad.
The truth is, whatever we allow happening to us, will happen to us without any regrets at all. This life of ours is our full responsibility. We have what it takes to shape the way things will happen, the way people see us, we have what it takes to achieve those goals and dreams we have already planned all out.
Be rest assured that once you decide to take your life seriously, a lot of discouragements will come following it. Sometimes, apart from being a natural write-off from people, this is one of the core reasons we get public discouragements.
**Why do we get public discouragements?**
You keep asking yourself why people don't believe in your, or your vision.
Who believes in someone or something who doesn't believe in himself either?
Your self disbelieves, brought about your public disbelieve and discouragement.
Even if you are yielding little or no results yet., There is a way you will carry yourself, with so much confidence, that people around you would want to believe whatever you've got to showcase. Even if it ain't visible yet.
Now., you really don't need their encouragement if you have built your self-confidence. Whether or not they believe in you, it will be both an advantage. Because their disbelieve would bring about more reasons to keep pushing vehemently.(That's if you are determined notwithstanding.) And their belief would be more grease to your elbows.
If a few of your problems are based on the fact that people don't believe in you, your abilities, your vision, your dreams, and whatever you've got to offer., This is for you!
Firstly, this shouldn't be your problem as humans decide what to believe, and what not to believe. But in order to win their belief over to your side, and shove their disbelieve to someone or something else.,
**This is what you must do:**
✓First, believe in yourself that you CAN., And you WILL.
✓Carry yourself with value, and healthy self-esteem. However way you treat or carry yourself, there's every possibility of you being addressed as such too.
✓Be a little more persistent, hardworking, determined, prayerful, than the usual you've put in previously.
✓Even when not where you ought to be, always and always; celebrate your little wins. Be glad about how much you've achieved, and how little you are progressing. These are your little beginnings. Be proud of the YOU, you are becoming.
All of these virtues, work hand in hand.
The beautiful truth is,
When they get to see how unwavering, persistent, and determined you are., Despite all the discouragements from all and sundry... They would respect you, your **little ACHIEVEMENTS**, and the YOU, you are becoming.
In whatever decision take., So long as it is good. Just know people may never get to understand you the way you ought to be understood.
Stop trying to always prove a point to people, who see/saw the actual facts and didn't act on it.
My sponsors are the best we have here,click to see their post
This is the more reason why till tomorrow., I don't do arguments.. if they don't believe the truth you say, despite your all sincerity., Don't stress. They are allowed to believe anything they wish to.
But!
Don't waste unnecessary energy trying to prove and prove and prove.
God will vindicate you!
Time would vindicate you!
So long as you are being truthful and real.
Please, don't stress!
So if public disbelieve and discouragements from friends and family is what troubles you.,
Worry not!
Be Intentional about your self-development.
Forget about them for now.
Build your self-confidence. That's all you need, God inclusive to thrive.
How about you be more Intentional and persistent?
And watch them follow up behind like they always did., Even when we know they never did so.
Relax and think out ways of doing your thing.
Success ain't far from you no more.
Thanks for reading, I love you specially

***SEASON GREETINGS***
Peace, Be Still!
Hello readers, before I begin, this is me saying I love you, and you mean a lot to me.
I know you pass through a lot, I know sometimes,. situations cloud you into thinking a lot of things and falling into depression too.
Do you always feel sad? Do you feel left alone and rejected?
This is me saying that you are not alone.
Did you know that above 100 million people in the world go through what you are going through in life., Sometimes, tougher ones. Most of us go through these situations at least once in their life, sometimes just so many times.
We live in so many high-stress situations in life. Our hearts get depressed because of financial debt and other life-changing experiences such as the loss of one's job, divorce, relationship issues, sickness, or even the loss of a loved one. Many people go through a period of stress, or periods of stress during these situations. But most of them can come out of it and continue life beyond. If a person cannot come out of the situation, then continuous negative thoughts will start affecting the mental and physical ability of that person, to live a quality and result-yielding life.
Well, life has its own difficulties on its own. Nobody’s life is void problems however small. Everybody has burdens of life and also, everyone worries about the future.
A lot of questions about;
**How to overcome it?**
I may not have the direct or correct answers to your problems, but permit me to introduce you to a source that never fails.
He is God
**Image from** unsplash.com
When you turn all your problems to him, he lifts up the burden and gives you peace.
Whenever you feel dejected, or depressed, or faced with challenges of any sort., Don't hesitate to go to the Lord in prayers, for he listens.
In the scripture, God told us to cast all our burdens on him, because he cares. This proves beyond doubt that, God., Is ever ready to listen to us. He is ever ready to listen to you whenever you feel down or depressed. He is here, ready to hear your pleas and request, and is ever willing to help you overcome them.
Here are some scriptures that would help you believe God got's your back, and is here for you, just anytime you need him. So long as you keep doing what's right.
✓When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." **(Psalm 34:17-18)**
✓"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." **(Isaiah 41:10)**
✓"Come to me, all who labor and are heavily laden, and I will give you rest." **(Matthew 11:28)**
My spondors are the best we have here, check their posts
The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; therefore, do not be discouraged.”
Hey, those words divinely crested in there, are God's words.
Yes! He said all of them.
It is true that you can always talk to God when down.
It is true that when you draw near to him, he would do so too.
It is true that he asked us to cast all our burdens on him, that he cares.
And it is true that he loves us, wants the best for us and wants to see us happy notwithstanding.
So tell me, friends., What's stopping you from telling your father in heaven, about that situation or problems that are bothering you?
Why let them eat up so down in you?
**Why let them push you forcefully into depression?**
Why let them stir up negative and suicidal thoughts in you., When you actually have someone who can save you, is capable of saving you, and has been in the business of saving people from troubles, and even worse ones.
Just in case you didn't know you had someone who may be aching to hear you speak to him right from the start, just in case you didn't know that there's someone, locking around waiting for you to tell him your problems and then watch him take them away., This is me telling you that you have someone.
You have God.
You have Christ
You have the holy spirit.
He might be one, or just the Trinity., But one with him is the majority.
Speak to him about your problems today., For he hears.
He said 'the thoughts I have for you, us of good and not of evil. To bring you to an expected end"
These are just words. It pleases the father that you are in good health and you have peace of mind.
Whatever battles you have got to fight., He would fight them for you.
He is beckoning on you to come.
To all those depressed., These are my favorite words from God the father...
**"PEACE, BE STILL., FOR I AM GOD, AND I WOULD FIGHT FOR YOU.**
Talk to God today and have eternal peace of mind.
**Thanks for reading guys, I will see you tomorrow. God bless you**

handwritings On The Wall
Seriously!
Everything should be carefully and Intentionally nurtured, grown and built.
Nothing should be forced! Not even the least relationships.
If your relationship with someone can flow naturally., There certainly is a problem. Even if not now, there certainly would be a problem.
Don't let love, cloud your thinking in making a wrong decision of a person as a spouse, or a life partner.
Marrying late is way better than marrying WRONG.
There isn't any failed relationship, that ended without foreseen signs earlier on. There were signs., Great ones! But you were too in love to notice.
If you are an intentional and sincere person., Don't think any other person would be honest, sincere and straightforward personas.
You may not like someone, and be brave enough to tell the person you don't. Reason why?
Sometimes, because you just don't want to have anything to do with that person,
You don't want to waste your time on something confidence wouldn't last.
You just want to do the person the Favour of knowing you aren't interested then move on.
Whichever way., It's best!
My sponsors are the best we have here
Because in the actual sense, you saved the person a lot. Ranging from emotional trauma he/she may experience later on when you finally give him/her the shocker breakup., Precious time, money, or pleasure.
To me, I prefer when someone tells me the ways things are. No matter how bad I feel, it's best to get disappointed the initial, then heartbroken when I'm fully into you.
***As I said, this is for me. I don't know about you!***
we are different people, with different perspectives of life and how we interpret them, alongside Relationships.
Even when we are cheats, we still want love, in the most genuine way we can get.
Humans for you!
When someone is silently giving you tips, of lack of interest in you, and the relationship you both share., Try your possible best to understand perfectly. Sometimes without words, because you definitely can.
If a blind man can still find his way around his house, which is familiar You too should be to know when someone isn't into you anymore. So long as you know that person, you should know when you aren't regarded anymore., When you less care for given attention.
You should know when only you keep carrying that relationship on your small head., And when your partner is always saying he's busy, and can't even call or send a text to anyone. You have to put yourself together.
**You should know when your partner has silently trekked out of the relationship, leaving just you to date yourself, literally!**
If you aren't in the know of all of these when it happens., Maybe you have been an overtime victim of this. Here is what would help you.
Try to understand that you don't have to keep making up excuses for them each time they falter gravely. If you take them seriously, they should take you too. If they can't., Please save your energy and time for someone who deserves you.
✓ Be observant enough to know when a guy/lady is tired of you. Yes, as humans, we are products too, somehow! People's, when familiar with us could get tired of us. It's natural. The fact is., Be observant enough to be able to pinpoint when exactly that person has suddenly loosed interest in you. It would help you prepare your mind for what is to come.
✓Take note of the red flags in a relationship. Don't make excuses for someone who doesn't see you as a priority. Especially the ladies. Y'all are fond of understanding what shouldn't be understood at all., Mostly! I know you have a kind heart, and you are more understanding compared to a man., But that doesn't mean you should tolerate everything at the expense of your Tolerant, alright. But!
Know when to put an end to your tolerance, and let them fight and prove themselves worthy to get back to you. (Applicable for guys too)
✓Take note of body language. Their rate of care and attention.
The word **"I love you"**, can be faked a million times, but "Attention, Care!" A person never gives this two to who he/she doesn't have a soft spot for.
✓Always know that even the perfect couples, even if they get married
There will be so many excuses regarding why they find it difficult.
If any of this happens., You should know it is a red flag.
... ***"A man creates time for what he cherishes***".And always know this.,
Don't ever see yourself too small or less than you are, you deserve to be loved real hard.
***You are amazing and you deserve the best of every relationship you could ever think of.***
Thanks for reading this, hope you have learned? See you tomorrow and stay tuned.

Fragments Of Love
`(Author's note: This is kind of long but you will love this novel)`
I was my normal self again, not until he came back to the class. The whole anger filled me once again. I was so unhappy everyone noticed. When it was school over, I picked up my bag, going home to plan what other ways there was to ruin my enemy. The sweetest part of the whole thing was that he didn't recognize me.
**THREE MONTHS LATER...**
I laid down on my bed smiling at how successful my job had been so far. He was suspended for the term. He was on the bad books of the school. Some guys hated him after I cooked up a story of him snatching their girlfriends cause he's cute. Life became unbearable for him in school. "I don't know why he hasn't withdrawn yet upon all the rough and tough times," I thought to myself. I soon decided I was going to pull the greatest of all strings. One that would ruin him for good. The school would be going for fun touring camp just for the seniors, in a deserted forest and for a week. "I can pull up my plan there," I thought to myself and smiled. Not long after, I dozed off after strategizing.
**UNDER THE FULL MOON**
We had just finished unpacking our loads and setting our camps when there was a call for dinner. Everyone came out hurriedly to have a dinner of pancakes and eggs. We all were super hungry as we were made not to eat before coming, reasons best known to our touring guides and suitable for my first plan. I volunteered to serve everyone and they didn't even care as they were all chattering about how fun the touring camp would be. I was so specific to serving Jed the last pancake and egg. As soon I saw him stretch out his hand to collect it from me, I dropped it on the floor and pretended to pick it up but packed it with sand. "I'm so sorry" I feigned an apologetic face but was happy within. I hurriedly stood up and after washing my hand, settled to feast on mine.
My sponsors are the best
I was the first to wake up the next morning. I needed to take my bath before anyone to plan for my next move. There was a river close by but I had to jog to get there before it was dawn. The sight of the river itself calmed my nerves as it was beautiful. I hurriedly unstrapped and dived in. I closed my eyes, and for once forgot why I changed into this monster in the first place. I soon heard a silent noise behind me and before I turned to look, I heard a splash in the water. The person was swimming inside so I couldn't see who it was so I stayed still. Soon, its head was out
"You??" I exclaimed
"Yea, me.
Hi, I'm Jed" he said smiling
"How dare you come into the water while I'm ...." The thought then struck me, I was naked and standing up would mean this devil watching me.
"The last time I checked, the river didn't belong to you, neither did it say it only contained one person" he was coming close.
"Stay right... there" I stuttered
"Why" he had an evil smile on and was still coming close
"I said stay right there" when I saw he wasn't listening, I said the word I had never intended to say again to this fellow"PLEASE" My face was already red with the thought of him seeing me naked. I was stuck and has nothing to do. I couldn't go out of the water, neither could I scream as the place was full of trees and would only echo, I could not also swim.
"Are you stuck now?" He finally stopped " I thought you always had it in you. Knowing what to do to get me in trouble and when to do it. I guess your brain doesn't have any answers for you today. I have a whole lot of questions for you and the sooner you answer them, the better for you" he said with a threatening voice
"I'm sure I won't be able to answer them. It'll soon be dawn and the student would be coming to have their bath" I managed to say
" That's the main reason you have to start answering, he said threatening to come close
"Okay.. okay... I accept .. I'll answer your question" I said gasping for breath
"Who're you?
who sent you?
Why do you plan on ruining my life, what did I ever do to you"
"My name is Ray. I wasn't sent by anyone, neither do I know you. I just don't like you" I replied
"Really?? You don't just like me?" He was coming close again " Although very stubborn and should I say evil, but I kinda like you" he was close enough now. He pulled me close to him holding my bare body until our faces were an inch apart. "I was always known for my mischief and I was impressed seeing a female pulls stunts male would normally pull. Did you for once think you got to me with all those silly things u were doing" he asked smiling
I was confused and stared at him
"Oh, come off it babe. Don't give me that look. Everyone knows I'm a bad boy and I wouldn't be insulted by a little girl" he said staring at my body. Anger enveloped me and I tried to fight him but he was too strong for me as he held me in place with just one hand
"I'm attracted to you little ray" he continued, but this time trailing his finger down my cleavages
"Don't" I gave a sincere pleading look
"Don't what., come on Ray. Were you thinking I would make love to you in the water? Now that I have that thought, I don't mind trying it tho". He said licking his lips. For a moment, I was scared. He was too strong to fight and the stupid dawn wasn't coming forth
"I like you, Ray. You're my kind of woman. Very stubborn, evil..."
I cut him short "I'm not evil like you. I was only made to be like this"
"By who, "he asked curiously
"Never mind". He traced his finger down my back to touch my lady bump. I tried fighting once more but to no avail
"There's no need of fighting baby Ray. I've always wanted to do this. You didn't know but the more you did all those, the more you got me attracted. You're the first girl I've been unwillingly attracted to. I imagine doing naughty stuff with you. Even when I try to get the thoughts off my head, it still wouldn't go" he whispered into my ears. I don't know why but I stopped struggling. I think he had this spot on women and I wasn't any different. I felt his hand trail my back, touchy baby bump and squeeze softly. The next thing I felt was a wet and cold tongue down my neck and to my shoulders. I stood transfixed to the spot and even leaned over for him to have
access. A hand moved from my trailing my lips to touching my br*ast and light squeezing. He made me yearn and jerk at every of his touch. I didn't even expect it but my hands went to his head when it was released. I pulled him close and kissed him fiercely. He poked his tongue inside my mouth, licking and feeling every bit of it. I soon realized that I wanted more. I laid down on the shore and pulled him down to me. He kissed me passionately. "God, this guy was good," I thought
"I want you in " I managed to say to him amidst the heat we felt
As if he was waiting for the word.It first came with a slow rhythm and movement but when I grabbed him tightly and moaned, he went all in and in a fast space. I bit my lips to hold the moan in but the fire I felt was too much and so I helooneoo loud. After what seemed like an enjoyable forever, he pulled out and rolled to the ground. It was after some time that realization dawned on me. I had just slept with my enemy
"F**k" I blurted out and hit the floor with anger "what did you just do "
"What you wanted desperately" he chuckled
"What I what?"
I tried hitting him but then he held me close and pulled me to him, holding me firmly.
"I'm still on, I don't mind going on a second round and with a different style, said him smiling. The thought of a second got me wetter
"What are you doing to me" I sounded frustrated

"Nothing babe. I like you and I know you do too"
"I don't. Not even a bit"
" Look into my eyes and say that "
I tried saying it when I looked into the eyes but the words couldn't come out. "Did I fall for him? did I askkskskksked myself? What has this guy done to me? I rolled off him when he let go of me and sat down, bringing my knees close to my face. "I'm supposed to hate you not fall for you" I felt the tears gather in my eyes
"Why hate me? What did I ever do to you" he sat down and asked worriedly
"This" I took his hand and placed it on my tummy
"How did I ever give you a scar," I think you got a wrong person girl"
"No...it's you. 18 years ago in the maritime estate, London, you took a girl's doll forcefully, ripped off the head and tossed it into the water. She almost drowned but then she was saved but not after an operation when it was discovered that she inhaled something". The tears couldn't hold back in as it poured fully
"Ray Park? It's you?"
He withdrew his hand and shifted. None of us said anything to the other for a couple of minutes then he broke the silence
"I'm sorry for all I did. Now I know why you hated me. But the truth is, I went to look for help when I saw you drowning but when I came back, I couldn't find you. Even when I heard you were back from the hospital, I came to visit but your mum shoved me away. It was so unfortunate we were moving the next day. I'm sorry"
I stared at him for a while unable to believe what he just said but the look on his face made me feel guilty.
"So I was only being a monster to someone who doesn't deserve it," I said, tears streaming down my face
"No babe. I deserve it" he came close and hugged me " I was being such a mischievous child and I deserve all the punishment I can get.
"No babe. I deserve it" he came close and hugged me " I was being such a mischievous child and I deserve all the punishment I can get. I made you go through pains and left a scar on you.
Im is so sorry" he was hugging me tightly. For a minute, and under the full moon, we were just like that hugging and crying.
EPILOGUE:
I forgave Jed and even considered going to apologize to everyone I lied to. Of course, he didn't agree but I still did it. I felt guilty for all I did. The principal and everyone was disappointed in me and even wanted to expel me but Jed pleaded on my behalf. Everything's back to normal. Less I forget, he's my boyfriend and the best one I could ever ask for.

BLURRY(in the reality of life, forgone)
I remember the first ever indecisive journey I embarked on years back. I don't know how it happened, but everything is so fresh in my memory.
8 years ago. Hong Kong, China!
I and my parents had relocated from St. Stanbic Estate to another Estate entirely. I recall asking them why we had to leave all of a sudden, knowing my exams were by the corner, but all I could ever get as a reply was "We need to go, Audrey, if not, we wouldn't make it"
Well, 12years Audrey, I was, couldn't think out anything reasonable from that above statement. Except for the stress of getting acquainted with a new environment again, and the joy of making new friends. I was literally happy!
We had packed in, and settled in our new house for 2months now, with everything going smoothly. Not until a day when I was alone at home, and I decided to take a walk around, and see what this mystery house we lived in, was made of.
I got to discover the shape of the building of my house. It was triangular. Nothing of a building I've seen like that before in my entire life. This jilted me to keep looking around. I kept walking till I got to the balcony of the house. Sorry if I forgot to state the land space was really as spacious as you can ever think.
At the balcony, I spotted a small door. Brownish-black in colour, more like the colour from the rusting of iron.
The door was so short. But the distance from the door looked quite lengthy.
I decided to look up, following the walls of the building... I could see nothing like a ceiling.
Weird?
I should have been scared right? But I wasn't. I didn't even think twice, and I pushed the door open and in I hopped. Everywhere seemed calm and welcoming. No noise, humans, no creatures, except for the dim light that pierced through a crack in the wall, and reflected in the perfectly dark building.
I looked up again, and still, the ceilings seemed to be there, but I didn't see anything. I kept walking, taking great caution as if the ground could open up and swallow me anytime soon.
I had matched a secret ground button, and yes! The ground opened up, just a section though., And I fell underneath. Landing with my side., At courtesy of my left arm.
"Arggh!!"
I groaned quite aloud as I opened my eyes, and this very building I had fallen into, was lighted perfectly. Seemed like I was in the throne room of some sort of royalties.
More quickly than I had thought, the guards came and carried me away to the dungeon. Locking the prison iron bars behind him. He said to me. "Prepare well Latisha, for your tournament with SLEEPING HURDLES, is tomorrow.
He said and locked me back, leaving me in my wildest thoughts. First, where was I ? How did I even end up in a prison, the first day I mysteriously appeared in a strange land? 😳
And who is **"LATISHA"** is that me? But how., Mama named me Audrey, and dad, Peter's!
Wait, wait?
I said hitting myself a bit hard on the head. Who on earth is "**SLEEPING HURDLES"?**
And I would fight him/her tomorrow. Ohh no! I didn't know what to do. That night, I crept out of the cell, went to the spot just before the waters, practises some defends skills alone, under the supervision of the moon, as I found strength anew.
The following day, I had matched out and beheld the fierce-looking creature I was made to fight.. I was nothing compared to him. His foot covered almost 10km land distance.
I stood on my ground, and somehow I defeated him. My cell was changed. I kept combating with other creatures. And as I often won, I was being promoted in the prison yard. I soon made a physician friend and had asked him some questions about why I was here, and if I could go back to my parents. It's been 10yeats past in this mysterious land, and I was 22years. My parents must have been dead, but just to pay my last respect. Let me go find their carcass, and bury them befittingly.

He showed me a series of maps,. And how many more stranger lands I had to go through, in order to get to my world. But I didn't pass through all of these to come here, sir? I asked a bit tensed up.
"Yes! You didn't have to, because the time was right for you to come". He told me.
What do you mean by these words? I asked him, and he took me to a building, which they call **"The Halls of Prophesies"**
I could see large picture frames of Lukar forgone hero's. (Lukar was the name of the mystery land)
I saw a picture that looked like me too well. At least, me as an older man. "Is that me?" I asked frightened.
"Yes it is.. you were the hero that rescued this land from the enemies, the time dinosaurs existed. Your fight made them go extinct.
He further showed me a book, and on a particular page, I could see writing.
**"The return or Babook.** (That was my name is the life far behind)
In time to come, when aliens would want to steal Lukar from its people and treasure., The last great hero, Babook, shall rise again and rescue Lukar the second time from the aliens. He shall come as a 12year old boy, Audrey! And shall be recognized by the people as **"LATISHA".** He shall fight and win against the creatures. And shall dwell in his past land for 30years, before returning to the new world of which he found solace as a newborn.
After reading this, I got to know I was the chosen one. I stopped finding ways to escape back to earth. I ruled for more than 20years, and on the eve of my birthday, I had left the mystery lands, back to the dimly lit building, and back to the door, I ran as my legs could carry me. I was 42years already. A full pledged man. I ran through that short heightened door, u couldn't pass because of my masculine stature now. I was timed. I had 10 secs to make it through that door and our to earth. I forced myself, and u was finally out.

And just then, mom and dad showed up.
"Hey boy, been looking for you for days now, where did you go?"
Did he just call me boy? A 42-year-old man.
" Tie your lace, my mom added.
I looked down at my shoe and saw how small my shoes were. Sized 32 actually. I had returned from the mystery lands, back as the 12year old Audrey I was. So, the phase of **"Latisha"** was over.
How many days did you say I was lost, mom?
"3 whole days son"!
Wow! So 10years, meant 1 day on earth. So mysterious.
"Hurry and back, we see leaving this minute. We secured a flight to California".
I packed, and we left the estate. And that' was the day I got to know the name of the estate.
I had seen it up, on a billboard. And it read.
**"BLURRY Estate.**
The land where Imaginations, are Alive in you. A bit beyond reality.
Wow! These words explained why I had to travel to the mystery lands through BLURRY!

Equipped For The Task Ahead
The way in which you or are so concerned about the clothes we wear, and how ready they are. If it happens we gave it to a tailor/seamstress.
That's to say, there is the zeal or feeling of making sure everything is done right as regards the clothing right?
Yes!
The same questions go likewise to you about life.
I'm sure before now you must have envisioned and known what you want to be. While so many of us ain't sure about where we are headed in life.
Welcome., You are actually reading the right article right now.
Hey Fams!
Are you prepared for the life you always wish you have had years back?
Are you even intentional about what you really want to go for in life?
If you are ., Then you are on the right track. It's best we humans, get to appreciate the efforts of what we do and others alike.
We have to lay our **FOUNDATIONS** so that we would be able to go farther in whatever field of career we desire. Laying the Foundation, Also has to do with mastering whatever skill that is going to take us to the next level.
The power of equipping yourself for the task ahead has to do with a lot.
✓You have to understand time management and shun time wasters.
✓You have to develop your self-confidence all by yourself.
✓You have to understand that in everything you do., You may never be encouraged. So you have a little encouragement from yourself and maybe very close friends and family., If any to thrive.

**Value Relationships with people.**
This one is very important. As you are getting ready for your career, always make sure you are making the right friends, and keeping quality conversations with people., Because they have a way of coming through for you.
So long as you are on earth, you definitely can't do without **PEOPLE**. For your business to thrive so well., You need us. So, be international about building good relationships with as many people as you come across. Being unlawfully rude ain't beneficial at all.. instead, it starves you of a lot of goodies.
**Be open to learning.**
So long as you plan on going far in life, never assume you know it all. Each opportunity you have to learn., Always do. You may never be able to be CERTAIN about where you would find yourself.

@Bloghound I love you, thanks for the support and love, it means a lot to me
**Showing love**
This might sound odd but is the most important thing when it comes to achieving your goals and preparing for tasks ahead. let people around you feel the love you have to offer and the good vibe that comes with it and without even noticing they will refer you to the Mr. A you have been looking for or to the person that will connect you to your glory and it starts from there but when you are always a "No go area" kind of person you body emits bad or negative ions then people find it difficult to relate with you then how will they even recommend you?
**Be MAD**
yes! Making a difference(MAD) is a sure strategy, just me this will help you stand out. thinking outside the box and creating a niche in that environment. it might not need to be a huge thing cos when we hear "thinking outside the box" it becomes more difficult to relate with. it might be a simple thing you are doing to make things easier or help others, as a student who offers free lectures in a course he/she know best to those fellow coursemates who don't fully understand is making a difference when "matter of things"(MOT) arise in that area of specification/ direction or close to, you will surely be recommended cos people value what they see and feel and proof of work(POW) is need too or what is called Showreel. So creating a niche doesn't have to be a big deal.
when you are in high school there are some students who do represent the school in competitions and other activities, not cos they are better than others or more intelligent but cos they have come out for that particular things and people have acknowledge it so they are being recommended while they are some who could do better but maybe they are shy or in some cases don't have the guts to showcase what they have to others so they are locked in their shell and still remain there while the others are bagging different awards and what I called a portfolio.
yours might not be in case of school, it might be work, business, anything you are in try to think out and to create a niche.
**How equipped are you in this journey of being successful?**
Are you ready for the task ahead?
I appreciate you reading this article.
Good luck amazing people !
**Special appreciations to these amazing people and I love you all for the support**

Weird Things Humans Do
In the course of making friends with people, or communicating, have you ever noticed some behaviours that are usually commonly done by people, unknowingly? More like a reflex action. Sometimes, we are victims of it too.
Now, let's look at the 35 most common ones.
1) Always fraternising about the day ahead (the next day) in a very positive way, thinking of everything you will be doing.
2) Whenever on a music headset, acting according to the sounds you hear, like you are in a Live music concert 😂
3) Always saying something disrespectful, after using the phrase "with all due respect, sir/ma"
4) Practising a speech over and over again, especially the night before it is presented.
5) The moment we are given a plate of food, and it is said to be hot. The first thing we do is to touch the plate notwithstanding.

6) Each time we want to go to the bank, we check our pockets or purse, so many times, just to make sure we are with the right card.
7) Continually charging our phones, even when it is showing "fully charged".
8) When we are in love with someone, we spend most of our free time, thinking about our future with that person in the picture of it all.
9) most of us, enjoy telling our problems to people, as they are willing to listen. But we are unable to listen to others.
10) Once we get a new dress, we test them as soon as possible, and look at ourselves over 5times, just to make sure it has the perfect fitting.
11) Most times when we are hungry and are unable to get it outside, due to the time or so, we are often served the same meal in the dream.
12) Our voices sound sweeter when we sing in the bathroom while taking our shower.
13) Some girl's, no matter how they make up, just can't be fine, funny enough.
14) The micro bacterial in our mouths, are much than the people on earth.
15) Each time we buy something new, maybe a watch, phone or others.. we always stop and use a minute just to touch our wrist(for the watch), or check other places if it's still there.
16) Plotting out some escape routes for unlikely scenarios.
My sponsors are the best we have here
17) Picturing ourselves with superpowers, doing the extraordinary.
18) Laughing outrightly, the moment we recall something funny that happened, even down to years back.
19) We are most likely to have a funny-sounding name in our backpack, for any person that seems too difficult for us.
20) We lose the ability to find something when we are angry.
21) We tend to stammer when over angered.
22) For each random person we greet, maybe on the road or somewhere, and he/she didn't reply to us., There is always something funny we say😂
23) 97% of humans prefer already made, then struggling to make his/her own.
24) Rushing out of the pool, or running from an environment if someone suddenly gets out. Because we believe there may be some bad guys around!
25) When thinking and having a drink same time, we would often finish it, Without remembering we did.
26) Pretending and acting to be a secret private detective in public areas, and imagining back-stories for the people around you.
27) Circling your apartments, whenever you are making a long call.
28) Acting to be in an action movie, anytime you are on the run.
29) Dancing and playing all by yourself, anytime you are alone
30) Slowly closing the refrigerator, just to see what it looks like when the lights are off.
31) Shouting for no reason when no one's home.
32) Jokingly telling your friend to defecate or pee for you.
33) Trailing ants to their holes, just to see where they live in.
34) Playing a song we love on repeat till we feel like dying
35) Thinking about our future, almost every time we are alone.
Yo!
Amongst all, which of them are you guilty of mostly 😂😂
Please tell us. Thanks for reading

Prayerfull And Sinfree
***Most of you won't read his because it has to do with the gospel then why do you call yourself God's children?***
The life of a believer., Has little or no grounds without the love of God, then prayer. So many Christians find it very hard and difficult to pray. It is true that prayers are supplications and are a means of communication with God. And it is also true that prayers are a means of edifying our spirit man too (Speaking in tongues to be precise).
The life of a believer is often surrounded by difficulties, life challenges, trials, problems, temptations, and much more downgrading and pitiful situations in life. Why?
This is because the day we decided to follow Jesus, we became enemies to the enemy (the devil). And thus, we would always be tried and tempted by him on a daily basis.
Now, what keeps us alive in Christ, is faith and prayers. The Bible made mention; that a "prayerless Christian, is a powerless Christian". So when you don't pray as a Christian, you are powerless.
They're a lot of battles we face spiritually, which so many of us don't know about., Because God always delivers us, and his infinite mercies keep us... We shouldn't say because God is merciful unto us, and so, we won't pray to him.
My sponsors are the best we have here, check them out
You mustn't have a need before you pray to your father in heaven. Don't just pray when you have a need, don't just pray when you are sick, don't just pray when you are broke, don't just pray when you are faced with life challenges. Pray also when you are thankful. Pray also to edify your spirit.
Don't be a one-sided benefit-sapping Christian! How would you feel if someone only comes to you when they need your help, and not take out quality time to thank and Celebrate you. Make boast of you amongst others too., Bad I guess!
This is exactly what we do to God when we fail to be in constant fellowship with him. When we fail to thank him, but we are so Swift to lay our burdens at his feet, because he said so. How about where he said, "pray in season and out of the season" or other scriptures he talked about our service of obedience and being thankful to him?
If at all you want to be an intentional Christian, you have to learn how to shun sin! And pray!
Prayerfulness and sinlessness go hand in hand. This is because one can't do without the other.
If you aren't prayerful enough, your flesh would rule your spirit, and that's to say you become unevenly carnally minded, and you have the tendency to sin more.
But when you are prayerful, you are able to overcome temptations from the enemy and sin.
We can't be sinless by our mere power., Nah! The holy spirit enables us to overcome sin. But we must first showcase our intentionality of not sinning, by being prayerful and conscious of our works.
When you find yourself in tough situations., Don't wait for angels, or God to come down and rescue you, place a petition to him through prayer.
Consciously pray yourself out. You have the power to do so.
When you are down health-wise, speak strength to your body. The Bible said God has given us the power to trade upon serpents and scorpions and nothing shall by any means harm us.
There is power in prayers. And Christians who have discovered this, have gone so far In life, as they are able to scale through every tough situation that comes their way.
What will it take you to pray, even if 5mins? God didn't give us a particular time for prayer before he considers us worthy to hear our prayers. A minute silent and Intentionally said a prayer, is better than 24hours ranting without the intentionality of the heart.
Let no man deceive you.
You must not pray 20 hours before God would show up for you.
If it's 5mins you can pray.,. Superb!
Pray for 5mins, be intentional and be consistent too.
And try as much as you can not to fall prey to the sinful acts you can naturally avoid.
Always be prayerful, and living a holy and righteous life, wouldn't be so much difficult for you.
God bless you and happy second Sunday of December.

Don't Do These In A Relationship
Everyone wants to love, and be loved., Or let's say, everyone wants to get into an emotional/romantic relationship. Now, it's not all about getting into this romantic relationship., Once in, do you have what it takes to handle it?
Loving is sweet, and it typically the best thing that can happen to anyone., But loving is hard too.
Yeah! It is. But when done rightly, love is just the best feeling.
In your quest of getting or having that perfect Relationship you so desire, it requires both parties/partners to do the work in understanding, loving, caring, helping, assisting, praying, encouraging, and lots more. Once it becomes one-sided., It's typically an error as one would get fee up easily and silently drift away from the Relationship.
While we act up so caring and loving to our partners., It's our wish we do the same right?
Yes., I bet!
Now, I would love to reveal to you, some relationship put-off's, in terms of words.
**What do I mean by this?**
Here, I'm talking about some words or statements that when one says, it doesn't go down so well with our partners. It makes them feel less than priority, awkward, weird, or not good enough for us.
****Below are quite a number of them.****
**✓ The word "Never mind"**
This one, is definitely a put-off to just anyone, talk more of a partner. When your partner asks you a question, regarding your day, or while your mood is wack., If you don't want to tell him/her, don't ever make the mistake of using or saying the word **"Never mind"!** Firstly, you may think it's just okay, but the truth is., It never goes down well with them. They would keep thinking's about it over time. And these would be some of their thought;
"Does he/she has to reply to me that way just to show he doesn't value me? "
" Is that a way of showing me to my face that I can't handle his/her problems"
" He/she doesn't trust me., I guess!
Notice the above typical theoretical questions that are often asked. None of them portrays anything positive right?
Yes!
Now, here is an advice. Instead of using the word **"NVM, meaning never mind"**., You could just politely say " don't worry babe, it's nothing, I'll be fine. Moreover I know you care so much about me, and for that, promise to take good care of my self. Or just "it's cool babe, can we talk about this later, please. A good knowledgeable partner would always understand.
**2. The word "Fine"**
This is often used as a reply to the random question., "How are you doing? How's your day?
When a partner asks you how you are, or how your day went., Don't just say "fine" straightforwardly. I know so many of us don't like too many talks, at least, you could try making it more like a sentence.
"It was very fine dear, thanks for asking babe". "it was fine darling".
Don't ever put up the show of not having quality time for your man or woman.
**3.. Engage them, chat well.**
While texting your partner over a distance, it's not always right for one person to keep doing the talking over and over again. I know you're a quiet person, and as such, talking ain't your thing. But I guess your partner is important to you, and you can try to put up nice conversations with him/her right? Right!
Don't leave them to keep asking questions. Return the favor and pleasure back by asking too. Even if you aren't good at talking or gisting. Take up the place of a questionnaire. Ask him/her questions. Then let your partner do the talking while you ask questions over time. That way, it's easier to talk more with your spouse.

@foryoubtc09 @ErdoV `thanks for the sponsorship, it means a lot to me`
**4.. The word "Whatever".**
This very word isn't just annoying, but it sounds disrespectful in every way. So many people see this very word to mean so many degrading things.
Right from
"get out
"your business"
" It's your concern" ...
And lots more.
Avoid using these words to your partner. It makes them feel less than priority in your life.
**5.. Don't say all men/women are equal,** in front or in the presence of your babe.
This statement has been the reason for so many Relationships that have been crashed.
Always learn to speak positive Words in your Relationship.
Goodluck 🖤

Saying Sorry IS An Error
***Saying sorry is an Error.***
Yes! You heard me right. Saying sorry is an Error.
I know so many of you are getting confused right now, as to why I said saying sorry is an Error., But I would tell you so now.
Saying"sorry, or I am sorry", isn't bad! It is very good actually. Especially when you wrong or offend someone.
But saying "sorry" almost all the time., For a particular wrong or more different wrongs, without making an effort to at least quit the practice and try to be better, is an ERROR!
The word "sorry", knowing the importance, and how it always comes through for so many of us during times of pain and guilt., Shouldn't be abused.
Inasmuch as we aren't perfect, and we tend to make mistakes., Mild ones, average ones, and crazy ones all the same., We should always make an effort to quit that very practice that makes us use the word "sorry".
The word "I am sorry", is just likened to the word "I love you". These two words are some of the most used words on earth, positively and wrongly too. So many lies about love, even when a person says "I love you".
The deceit that follows is second to none. Because of this fact, so many don't believe in the potency of "I love you" anymore because people keep saying it, professing it, and not showing it.
This is the same with the word "I am sorry". Since everyone does mistakes, everyone uses that word, excluding the extra proud and pompous humans.
**75% of people** saying the word "I am sorry, doesn't mean it, and so can't even think of quitting the act that leads to them being sorry.
**20% of people** using the word "I am sorry", mean it when they say it, but not when they do it. Because they don't care about identifying what led to them being sorry, and trashing it, so it doesn't occur again. But no! I guess they both love to use the word "sorry" more often than usual.
**And 5% of humans,** using the word "I am sorry", aren't just sorry, but intentional. They mean it when they say it, and mean more when they go all along, trying their best not to repeat the act that led to them being sorry.
**"SORRY"**, isn't just a word, or a phrase. Aside from that, there is more to it. It's an outstanding word, and an act/process.
You being sorry, implies that you accept your wrong, and promise to look into your flaws, correcting them and making sure they don't repeat themselves again.
So each time you only say the word and do not act and consciously and Intentionally carry out the "Sorry" process, it's become an abuse of the word.
**Do you know you don't have to be sorry?**
***All images are from*** unsplash.com https://unsplash.com
Yes!
You can elude being sorry or saying sorry almost every time in your life. You can escape apologizing to nerds and people around you.
Do you know how much luck, saying "I am sorry", and how much harm, when people get to know you were only sorry for a reason, and not season and out of season? When they get to know that you went back to your formal lifestyle, and didn't intentionally carry out the "sorry process".
It brings more harm than good. This is because so many individuals have a very low rate of tolerance. And as such, not everyone has your time or the strength to keep tolerating your excesses, till maybe you are forced to change by some forces beyond earth.
Some people just tolerate you twice, and the moment you are always repeating that act, and not keen in changing, they are good at spreading stuff about your incompetence, and bad habits around to people.
**Now., Who's to lose and who's to gain?**
You definitely would lose out if the word "I am sorry", begins to hunt you.
But when you say the words and also actively involve yourself, Intentionally into the "success process", you have nothing to lose, because when people see how intentional you are about correcting your wrongs, they attach certain respect to you, opportunities could also come through for you, you will be used to model integrity and lots more.
***Yes! I remember asking you if you knew you could escape saying or being sorry all the time.***
Let me reveal the secret to you.
When you do stuffs rightly., Do you apologize to anyone?
When you obey rules/regulations, do you apologize to anyone?
And lots more.
In a case like this, you escaped apologizing, right? Yes!
The same method is applicable to every other situation.
Always try and strive to do the right thing. That way, you won't have to be apologetic.

**Now ask yourself these...**
Why do you have to be sorry all the time, for something you could actually handle and handle well enough?
Think outside the box, and be knowledgeable enough to know all good words, in some way cab be abused. And also try to not just be sorry, but to trash the cause of you being sorry.
Thanks for reading fam, you all have been my biggest motivation.
