Its Okay not to be okay. Many times in people's lives when things don't go as planned,people become paranoid, they become restless , they become short of ideas, they would start on reevaluation of their self worth....... **But come on** , it ***okay*** not to be ***okay***. It's simply a part of life . You know 🙃,life would be boring without challenges🤪. Just imagine there was not a thing worth fighting for,if there was no joy and happiness to look forward to , if there was no expectation of increase, progress....😬🤐. Did you **imagine** it, for me it is definitely terrible. Going through @HappyBoy article titled relationship without trust is dead. It was an eye opener on my views concerning trust. And I also receive clarification why some of my relationship don't work out. It simply because I don't have expectations from that relationship, most likely I don't want to be vulnerable to that person . So regardless of whether they are good or not as a person , I just act in love towards them expecting nothing from them whether good or bad. It's become boring 😴 for me and them and most times they just give up on the relationship , to them it feels like I am not trying 😶 . @Matthew Hussey , he said "you don't trust that people won't betray you , you trust that if they do you can handle it ". This is me 100% 💯. So it's okay if you experience hurt, it makes you better, even though I don't want to be vulnerable, I am still learning, but it's okay to be vulnerable sometimes 🤧. So it's okay if you don't feel too good , just don't dwell on being sick forever. It's okay to not to have cash at the moment but don't plan to stay in poverty. It okay not be unemployed but have plans to get employment. It's okay if people shun you,but have plans to be better towards other people. So in conclusion don't let circumstances determine how your life should go. If you go through my written articles ,from; what do you believe down to my every article you would see I am an advocate for positivity. Things might not go right ***but come on. It's okay.*** Closing this articles with the scriptures. Jesus said...be of good cheers I have overcome the world ,greater is he that is in you than he I the world.🥳🥳🥳🥳 .................................................................................................................................................................................... I know I have been **Awire** (Absent for a while). Work has been so busy that when I do get break ,I would not want to use my brain , I just wanted to relax. So I apologise for my absence. Month of September as being indeed a month of possibilities and opportunities 🙌. My gratitude goes to God, my subscribers and Sponsors, you guys made my Month on read.cash. God bless ya. I look forward to a better and beautiful 🤗ctober, you should too, the **land** is **green** 🥰🤑. **4th October ,2021**.

@Hontop 21 September 2021

Change There is only one thing that is as constant as God will always be God ,that is **CHANGE**!!! Yeah right? Most people are afraid of change . I saw a post by @Daniel_banj titled addiction. He is new to read.cash but I liked his article anyways.😊 And I kept wondering why do people have addictions ?and I came to a conclusion it is either They are afraid of changes that could occur in their lives, fear of the unknown. Or because their choices got out of control.. Have you like something so much that you began to obsess about it, it is now affecting your life and now it seems you have no control over it. So back to **CHANGE**. How do you react when you start feeling like your body is changing from what what you were into a different person(whether good or bad)? Do you cower under baggy clothes, or do you adjust to this new development? When you get sacked from a job or you get promoted in your job ,how to you react to this new change? Do you go into depression and become full of self pity for yourself or do you encourage yourself and move on to greener pasture? . And for the promotion guy, do you plan to add value to yourself so you can give the best results or do you relax because now you have gotten the promotion? I can go on and on about changes that occurs in our daily lives. So it is not the changes that really matters but how we deal with this changes. There are good and bad changes😅. Do we react rightly or poorly towards CHANGE. Me personally I have examples of how I reacted poorly to change but the good thing is , I did not let the change weigh me down. I also have great examples of good changes that I reacted well and also examples were I reacted poorly to good changes. Just like when dealing with addictions, getting the right results starts from the right conception about who you are, what you can be. So regardless of whether it is a good or bad change train yourself to react rightly by thinking the right thoughts. I think this sequels my last article titled what do you believe?. For us as writers on read.cash, times might come when we don't earn as much as we used to or times were we would get less views,less comment on our articles, but hey!! Have the right response. I love @QueenRay article titled Alert!!! Pigs eating Golds, Village People at work.. it buttresses my point above. I have heard motivations like time changes everything, well not all things. There are things that if you don't deal with they won't go away, so quit being afraid of **CHANGE, make a move to make things right!!!** The great thing is regardless of your past you can rewrite your present and future. Do not grow weary of **CHANGE**, embrace **CHANGE** !!!! ................................................................................................................................... ............... **On this note how as my September being going?** Well I have **testimonies** On Sunday ,God saved me from hitting a bike man who was inpatient, I am really grateful I don't have to deal with police report and all.he was fine, his passenger was fine and I was doing great too with no damage to our properties. Secondly about my Financial responsibilities, God has been too Faithful, like he has been awesome. I have been trusting him that I won't be stranded financially,August left me with many things that would be needing cash in September. But till date in September, things have been going well in accordance with my testimony that I won't be stranded financially in this month. I have had difficulties but God has being faithful. Lastly in this month opportunities I did not search for came to me, so I can only attribute this to God. You know what? I am still expecting many more miracles in September there are 9days to go in September and God is never late,he never fails. This month in totality will be greater than my August. I hope I inspired on not giving up on September yet, changes happen but have the right response 🤗. A special thank you to my subscribers ❤ and my amazing Sponsors, you all make read.cash awesome .

Hi, Good afternoon, how are we all doing...I am writing this post to specially appreciate @Bloghound for sponsorship renewal. God bless you and may all your sources of income continue to flourish .

@Hontop 18 September 2021

What do you believe? I was out today talking to a couple of people on the street today. I realised one thing , we are shaped by our believes . It doesn't matter of you have more than one PHD(degree), if you believe you aren't worth anything, then even your PHD will end up worthless. Then I began to question what do you believe?how do you believe? For me personally, the word of God is what I believe. But what do other people believe? To get opportunities you must know someone in the high ranks. You can never be wealthy if you don't work hard, sweat blood and water...this is me exaggerating. If as a lady you go over 30yrs you might never get married, you would have difficulties getting pregnant. You can only be average because your parent aren't really that wealthy. You need to hear wrong and weird believes 😪😪. Obviously I don't fault them for their believes, society, family friends made them that way . For a man who have search for opportunities only to be told to pay certain amount to receive favour or you have to pull ranks to get what you want. For me personally pulling ranks is stressful, why can't things just work the normal way. But anyways I guess I believe this too because this is part of my experience. Don't get me wrong, I get favours but I strongly believe it is attributed to God, so yeah I know someone high up. The hardwork equals wealth thing is obviously false. I believe in putting your best in what ever you do but it doesn't have to be hard!!! Me personally I prefer ease, I can't stress.🤣🤣🤣 If you are among those who believe hardwork equals wealth ,I tell you, you need to speak with with the cart pusher, or manual labourer who offloads goods from the vehicle into the store house. The one for the women part really got me because personally I have 2 aunts who got married in their 30s and they both have 2 kids with no medical issues. So if you are a lady reading this don't let them pressure you into something you aren't ready for. Life doesn't have to be hard chose ease 😌. If you saw @tired_momma article on a mother's story(..you can check it) The example she gave on the woman who almost killed her child most likely due to post partum, you won't not want to rush getting married....take your time and besides the best part of your life is when you are single,enjoy it to the fullest before you get hitched. The average part you know I used to think that way but I realised there isn't anything passion ,dedication and persistency can't solve. How to believe. This might shock you but believing is just believing, you might not see it but you just know, that is believing...I think it is one of the cheapest currency to having the best life ever. So what next? Check what you believe and remember to stay 100% 💯Positive. Since being negative won't change anything for the better ,So keep your morale high always hope for the best. On this note how is my September going I have been enjoying 😉my life. Any difficulties: For me presently I think I am better than yesterday, that's all that matters today. Well today's date is September 18, I look forward to the rest of the 12days in September, I have got this!!! Thank you my dear sponsors and subscribers 😘❤. It evening here in Nigeria, wherever you are I hope you have a lovely evening and night. Tomorrow is going to be better than today.🥰

Random thoughts 🤔 First off I think alot, this can count as a merit and a dismerit 😅 "We get so busy watching other people live than rather living." When would you start living ? when you get to heaven lol😶. We all have concerns , I 🤔 think . We would think "I think my friend has a better paying job than I do, if I had a better job like her , I will be better off." I wish I had a great wardrobe like her, maybe guys would notice me if I did? I wish I had a great body like him , like her , maybe people would respect me more if I did . I wish, I wish ...that all the concerns we have . Have we ever thought of taking a pause and thank God for what we have? You might not have a great job but you can afford to pay for meals and a place to stay, and hey a better job might be coming? You might not have a great wardrobe but hey there is time for everything, a time would come you would both have the clothes and a husband/wife not a boyfriend/girlfriend 😉 Yeah for a great body be deliberately about it, you can do it. You might be dealing with one sickness or family challenge, don't get depressed, people get well from their sickness . Miracles do happen. Challenges come and go..Exams come to pass 😝 I have been there , lived there and I realised it is not worth it, I was definitely wasting time, on people that didn't matter or might not care me . So what am I saying. Don't be so focused on what you don't have , you could miss what you could have if you are craving other people lives . You might not be earning so much even from this platform but yes it just for a whole . A while may be a year, 6 months but things would change don't give up!! Amazing people up there,check out their pages,they write great articles . Let other people lives inspire you , don't let their lives be a reason for stagnation in your life because of envy. Keep living, don't stop living. On this note 📝 How is my September going? Answr:I am still expecting my big finish, I am open to opportunities and I do not miss it. Any challenges: recently I have been getting so tired and I end up not wanting to do anything but just lay down, 😪....I am working on balancing work and my normal life .. Doing double week night shift took a toll on me. Expectation...even if today is 13th..I look forward to the rest of 17 days in September, I am waiting for my miracles and I anticipate sharing them with you. I have had testimonies but I know there is the wow testimony coming. Did I make sense? It's night again, have a nice rest 😴😘

Excerpts from Song of Solomon Jerusalem maidens: in this twilight darkness I know I am so unworthy—so in need. God's response:Yet you are so lovely! Jerusalem maidens:I feel as dark and dry as the desert tents of the wandering nomads. God's response:Yet you are so lovely— like the fine linen tapestry hanging in the Holy Place. God's response:Listen, my radiant one— if you ever lose sight of me, just follow in my footsteps where I lead my lovers. Come with your burdens and cares. Come to the place near the sanctuary of my shepherds. My dearest one, let me tell you how I see you— you are so thrilling to me. To gaze upon you is like looking at one of Pharaoh’s finest horses — a strong, regal steed pulling his royal chariot. Your tender cheeks are beautiful — your earrings and gem-laden necklaces set them ablaze. My darling, you are so lovely! You are beauty itself to me. Your passionate eyes are like gentle doves. My beloved one, both handsome and winsome, you are pleasing beyond words. . Song of Songs 1:5‭, ‬8‭-‬10‭, ‬15‭ TPT https://bible.com/bible/1849/sng.1.5-16.TPT So today I would like to discuss a part of the scriptures that keeps me in love🥰. This happens every time I go back to it. It just so unreal but yet very true Have you heard the term, "I have got a bubbling feeling inside of me and I feel like I am going to bust" that's how I feel every time I read this part of the scriptures. There are many part of the scriptures that exictes me, but this one has a big part of my heart . Why? It talks of how much I am loved I don't need any man's affirmation I am loved . Someone, a deity is in love with me😍, he looks forwards to our time together, he watches out for me , he looks forwards to blessing me. The best part is that God loves loves you and he gave his son to die for you that if you believe him and confess with your mouth that he is lord of your life , you would be saved , God is interested in you more than you know it...(John 3 vs 16, Romans 10 vs 10,*Jeremiah 29:11-13)* I hope this blesses you as much as it as blessed me.🤗 ................................................................................... So in this light how has my September been going? Answer: Everyday keeps getting better and better Any challenges: managing my time, I feel like every 24hrs is too short . I am working on efficiently managing my time consciously. Anything new: So I was at work and I told my colleague I learnt how to make shoes and bag during my time at camp (service to the country) and that I have been meaning to work on what I learnt. Then she said she want me to help her reconstruct her son's shoe , so I had to use Ankara(printed cotton fabric) to cover the sandal, the sandal was getting bad. I agreed. It was tough for me since it was my first time. On first trial I gave up , today was my second trial and I made it, I also made slippers for myself 🥰😇. I still have much to learn though 😅🤣🤣🤣. Thank you to my wonderful sponsors and amazing audience. 🥰 So tomorrow is another day I hope you all have a great night .And tomorrow is going to be better than today 😁

@Hontop 7 September 2021

Speak ill of no man. I think one of the hardest things I have to learn and do as an adult is speaking ill of no man. Have you met men, 👋. They can be so annoying, frustrating,pretentious, and arrogant. But what can your humble self do, you have to learn to speak no ill of them. ........................................................... .. ............ . .. .................................................................................. .. Hi guys as usual update on my September How am I? : Answer: I am enjoying my life How is September going?: Answer: better than my expectations Any challenges: Answer: 🤧 I sent money to the wrong cryptowallet and lost that money , so I am unpleased about that . AlsoI had more clients than usual, now I have to work more,not a bad thing but....energy 😅. In all things I am still grateful to God. All the same , I am anticipating miracles in September, my Month of possibilities 🙌 ........................................................... .. ............ . .. .................................................................................. .. **Back to business** So why is it necessary to speak no ill of no man. 1.God said so. **Titus 3:2, ESV: "to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people** I know most people don't like hearing God said so business, if you are such persons 🙄, well God is God and you are lucky he is a good and generous God. If you know you know😅😉 . 2. For your mental health: Just imagine if all you do is garbage in ,garbage out, I.e. you listen to gossips and then you get upset and you find an opportunity to tell the gossip, and trust me, opportunities like that usual come , even without a scale of demand. You then tell this gossip and most times, more often than not, you regret that you ever mentioned that in the first place, so why go through the stress at all, just speak ill of no man. You want peace with all men: No matter how much of a introvert you might be, you don't want anyone calling you a gossip or a back stabber, or any terrible name, it is really not hard, just mind your business, if that would not work, keep your opinion to yourself especially if it would cause more hardvoc than good. How to avoid speaking ill of mem Try as much as possible to think great of everyone no matter how terrible that person may be . You can try excusing their behaviour, I'm other than you are gossip or ill intention free. Love covers every multitude of sin,"hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs."so it pays to just love everyone. Being pretentious is not the same as loving ever man. Of all methods mentioned, I think loving people is still the best method ever . I am sorry to have bore you, I am just reminding myself of some things I might need to work on. I refuse to let people determine how my day should turn out, so my confession: Thank you to this amazing people above and my wonderful audience, you guys are the best. God bless ya😘

I miss read.cash, I can't wait to read pending articles 😩, work has been so hectic that sometimes I go blank and I would need to sleep . This night slash tomorrow read.cash I am yours 🤭

@Hontop 3 September 2021

Maintaining Relationships (POV OF AN INTROVERT) *****Quick update***** How has September been ? Answers: My September has been going well, My plans? Answers :my plans coming through, little challenges here and there but I still got it. Do I still feel pumped up as September 1st? Answer: No , but to honest I am not ruled by my feelings and I am led by God's spirit. Feelings may change but God's word is ever true . So I would continue in this spirit of reviewing my September in all for articles for September in the light of encouraging myself and in hope to uplift another person. ..........................................................................................**Today's business** .......................................................................................... I as an introvert,I think the toughest challenge I always face is maintaining relationships, so I try keeping having new friends to the minimal. Obviously making friends online is the easiest, since I don't have to leave my space . `Ps I meet new people and they are all lovely and I am friendly .I always put in my best ,I am an excellent person but it is just too much work to maintain relationships. I hope this article doesn't paint me in bad light!` Who is an introvert: There is nothing wrong been an introvert , we are just different. **Best part** of an introvert If in our heart we decide a person as our friend, we give our 100%. ..but be careful if you break that trust it hard to get it back..I guess this is peculiar to everyone? We are the most caring set of people, we care for our friends, we might not show it but we sure do . When you go through challenges, don't be surprised that your introverted friends are the only ones you might see. Since we don't get to talk a lot in our personal time, sorry we may talk your ear off when we meet but we are considerate and we are always working on listening more to you so we could be better friends to you. we are not prideful, many people mistake us as proud, we just like our space and since we are almost always on our own we tend to see the world differently. **Like I always tell people , the world is not painted in black and white, there are several colours in the world ,expect diversity.** **(**just like WebMD's definition, it depends solely on how you process the world) So don't be textbook guided, don't be rigid in your processing the world don't always expect that things are always meant to turn out in a particularly way. I hope I am making sense . ****Our bad**** (maybe to an extroverted person) When you meet an introvert for the first time and you have plans to be friends with them don't have high expectations of a normal social life.. They might check on you less frequently than you expect, and this not because they do not care about you... but it's tasking , they have to leave their own bubble to socialize, and socialisingfor too long can be tiring for an introvert. I personally don't like to make calls without a reason, if I made a call to you , definitely I have something to discuss....I feel like when you call without a purpose, you tend to discuss other people, you might end up speaking ill of people even if you had no plans to. (`Like I said my perspective`). So I am not saying then you should be the only one giving your energy in a relationship with an introvert but trust us introvert, we always try our best we just need a little push here and then to meet up with you socially. Asides from the reaching out issues? Do you have any other issues with an introverted person? Raise in comment section below. So maintaining relationships is hard work for an introvert. Know your friends and relate with them based on their capabilities and abilities. Don't compare your friends . Don't compare people with each other otherwise you would just get everybody's result instead of reaping potentials. If you have an issue with someone , especially an introvert, we prefer you talk to us about it so we can make correction. We might act and not know we were hurting someone but we are swift to listen and take corrections . Why am I really talking about this? Well as an introvert, I really wish people would understand me as I do the same for them . I really do not like being compared with other people. I have friends who understand me for me and friends who don't get it .... I don't want them to feel that they can't understand me because I care and want them as friends. It is tasking but I am working on it. But hey I can't force them to stay 🤷‍♀️ `Just for saying sake, I just found out most of the time I am always in my own space and oblivious to things around me usually these are things that aren't my business. It just always shocking to find out things have been happening around me and I wasn't aware. But this is no excuse for ignore ,I was try to keep myself with changes in my country and all over the world .` So this based on observation and purely Subjective. If you think contrariwise to my opinion, be polite, I am open to learn, raise suggestions in comment 😉. `Check put my awesome sponsors, they write the best articles out there and they are nice people 🤗` Have a wonderful day, I hope today will be better than yesterday 😊. *~~3rd August, 2021~~*

To the beauty-ful you.This is my love letter to you ❤ I remember that very day on the stairs, me smiling on my own,trying to look beautiful, not because I wanted attention or anything, that guy, why is it always a guy?😅 . Well, anyways he called called me ugly , and I know what that did to me made me suffer physiologically for many years. Like I literally never felt good about me, when people laughed while I was passing I felt like they were laughing at me, when people stared too much I felt like something was wrong with me. Those people might have meant no harm, but some damage was done already by one boy whom I did not even like (for your information) I guess I just cared what people had to think . Getting a compliment felt like they were just trying to psych me up. Then something happened one day I looked deep into the mirror , well not too deep 😬 and I saw myself ,eh😬 I came to the relaxation that I was beautiful ❤, I reflected on myself and I realised I am a kind person, a great model for anyone to emulate. So the problem has never been me. People where just too shallow to see the real me. Later in life I learnt I don't need people's verification for whom I am.. I know who I am and that is all that matters. Why am I telling you this? Why this letter✉?love letter as I call it 🥰 I got things to tell you.Well one for all,you are so beauty-ful that only you are unaware, you keep waiting for people's validation , approval on what you wear, how you should talk, who you should meet and how you should look.. Here is a secret I learnt later in life, these people are only envious of whom you are , they don't know how to exude your innocence , so they called you proud, they don't understand how you could be so lovely so they they called you arrogant, they don't know how you could be so efficient with life, work and family, they decided to call you boring... These people whom you regard their options as important, they are the least important people in your life . One thing I can say for sure is that you are so lovely, I wait every night hoping to hear your intelligent thoughts. I have seen your picture once and I wonder how much time God took to create you, you are wonderfully and fearfully made . I have seen your progress, your fruits and admire how far you have come . Don't let any one make you feel less, you are beautiful and your beauty is greatly defined ...I see it and you need to see it too. Beauty isn't just about the face you know, you might not be miss world but you are beautiful in your own way, your eyes, nose lips might be the oddest people might have seen but they are just different from the regular and you are definitely beautiful. Wake up, shake up that feeling of smallness,I see you and you remind me of Hyacinth flower, so lovely. If I could call you any flower again, I would call you violet , you remind me of modesty in all proportion I would also call you rhododendron, you are full of strength, you set a goal and you win. I hope you got my iris to you, never forget You are beautiful With love HONTOP ..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

It always works out in the end Beep!! beep !!!beep!!!, 4pm on my hospital bed, I kept on thinking where did I miss it , what could I have done better, do I still have hope? Sadness **came over me as I thought back into the past 😪.** ..................................................................................... `First of, I want to say thank you to my wonderfully exceptional sponsors, you guys are wonderful ❤.` `I also want to say thank you to everyone of my subscribers, I am grateful for every like, comment and views, God bless you guys.` ..................................................................................... ...................................................................................... `Back to story` 2002 December just like a dream, I was finally done with studies , finally I can relax, get a job and then work towards my goals, I said to myself as I reflected on my set goals *Get a job well paying job* *Buy a house, take care of my parents* *Get married* *Take* over the world 🤣🤣🤣 Lol, number 4 goal was just a personal joke I always say to my self, to make myself happy. 2 weeks after, I remember myself so frustrated, I have searched all around the street of myria, yet no job. I was frausted at this point, it wasn't like I was lazy or anything. I could do anything at this point to make money, my colleagues have gone far ahead of me , what can I do. I don't know whether to call Mr Alfred a blessing or a curse on my destiny 😓😓. I met Mr Alfred shortly after my search for a new job, he told me he could not offer me a job in my field or the salary I would want , but at least I would have a job to keep me . Forget about the getting a house, life was tough for me even after I got the job, it felt like I was better off without the job, but I persevered. 😣 Thub !!thub!! thub!! thub!!!, it feels like yesterday, I laughed at myself in pity, why was I so unfortunate, why? Why can't I have peace and joy like every one else... I subbed so hard, wishing the ground would open up and swallow me.... Mr Alfred had told me to meet him at a restaurant for a meeting with a prospect client ,for me it was not hard of a command to follow, since it wasn't the first time, he had called me to come for such meeting. Me in my black office dress and my favorite baby pink coat....I walked into the restaurant hoping the meeting would end as soon as it had started, I was really tired. I obviously did not notice anything amiss,till our private hub were we were dinning was closed, I mean the door was locked..I looked up and saw that I could nearly not make out what I was seeing. Oh my God, I have been drugged, why was I so careless, I looked at Mr Alfred and it looked like he was smiling, I don't know , was I really sure?, then I screamed on impulse . I remember someone was trying to pin me down and close my mouth.that was the last I remembered `From a third party POV` I walked into green's restaurant hoping to get dinner and leave. I wasn't sure what I heard while conversing with the manager of the restaurant. I think I heard a scream ,I told him. He then replied he thinks so too..he asked me to give him a minute, so he could get the spare key to the door. He got back soon enough and we opened the door. It was horrendous,a lady was about to be rape, I did not know what came over me, I lept over the table and pounded the guys on her , I am not sure how long I was at it,till I heard police come in. https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/horrendous Oh my God, I rushed to lady, lady are you okay I called out to her, there was no response...the medics came in,I followed then down to the hospital with my dinner long forgotten. As soon as we got to the hospital, the police came to me to get my statement....I signed necessary documents on her behalf and I was waiting for the doctors to come and give me information about the lady . I was able to reach her parents, I found out the lady's name was Chelsea . 5hrs later her parents had arrived, I tried so hard to console them, they were telling me how much effort was made by their daughter, how wonderful she was. While they were talking the doctors came out and one of them told us that Chelsea was fine but she Wouldn't speak .she isn't responding to any question. .her parents rushed in, I followed shortly afterwards, I could see her parents plans to get her to respond was futile too. I then looked at Chelsea again, I suddenly found that I had this attachment to her, I don't even know her, why do I feel this way? I asked myself. The doctors agreed it was best to keep her in the hospital for observation, though she was sent to the psychiatric ward. Her parents agreed to this after much persuasion from me that I would pay the bills. Afterwards I went back home, prayed , the Lord encouraged me to keep checking up on Chelsea, talk to her when I see her even though she won't respond because of her state . I did this for over a year, lol people began to question whether I was her boyfriend before the accident, 😆, lol, even I questioned the Lord what this was all about. So Jan of the new year Chelsea finally spoke, the doctor called, I went to see her , I introduced myself we began talking for several weeks, then I realised I liked her but hey !,baby steps , eventually we started dating, thank God I found her and persisted in waiting. `First POV` I have always seen this guy in my room , he would come share God's word with me and all.but I was mad at God. where was he while I suffered? was that the best place he could let me be? why said he let me meet Mr Alfred ?why could he not warn me ahead of time I was almost raped? My thoughts continued like that for many days, month and months became a year , while I was relaxing like I normally would, I heard a voice, could this be God? Then the voice voice said. "I have formed you, I have loved you even before you were born, you are my priority. I would choose no other creature over you,you are Special special. I sent Drake ahead of time to let that evil pass over you, though you walk through the fire I would be with you, through every challenge I won't leave nor forsake you, you are loved by me " Then I felt this overwhelming feeling in me, then I started crying ,I saw doctors rush in, but I could not stop crying. Finally I found peace , I officially met Drake, who became my finance, who would have thought I would tick my 3rd goal in this kind of situation. I am thankful to God for the victory and back on my hospital bed, I would be discharged today. Joy filled my heart while I wait for Drake, I told myself ,yes I might have missed it earlier , but now I am not alone,I am God's priority. Drake walk in and we went home to live happily ever after ..................................................................................... ..................................................................................... So this story is purely fictional, it has no reference to any real life situation...thank you for reading. I hope you have a great week. If last week wasn't great, this week would be better. And if last week was great, this week would be better than the last. Love 💘 you.

Decisions Making decision can be one of the hardest things you can encounter and also making decisions can also be the easiest thing 😅. **Do many people particularly like making decisions?** Not really ,especially when you have to make a very important one, but the decision must be made anyways. For me personally being a Christian as been a boost in my decisions making, because trust me recently I have had to make tough decisions. 😅. In the spirit of Thanksgiving I thank God for his Spirit , who has been teaching, guiding and carrying me through every period, especially through decision making. **How** do you **make** your **decisions**, especially when many people are involved in that thing? Someone could get hurt from your choice, someone could get great joy from your choice . I want to make **suggestions** on what may help with decisions making, obviously I am hoping you **pick** one or two things from my write up . **Trust** God plans for your: "For I know the thoughts I think towards you, they are of good and thoughts of peace to bring you to an expected end" Jeremiah 29 vs 11 So God **definitely** has the best in mind for you but you need to learn to trust him. **Talk** to someone else about how you feel: **You don't** have to let them in on all the issue if you are like me, but you could learn one or two things from them on how to make a great decision. And if you are more open in sharing than I am great, that means you might even get better advice . **Manage** your thought well during this period you would need it, in the sens that don't let your emotions take over you, don't let anyone bully you into making a decision. **Reflect**, what has that thing been in the past, evaluate past record. **Don't get carried away**, by what that thing or person might want you to see, it could be because they want something from you, that is why they are nice now , gauge past actions, do you like them . Like I said earlier, don't get carried away. *Finally I know you started with praying, also end it in prayer .* *Tip: for me especially* when I am about to make the wrong decision, i feel no peace , so I have to think through my decision. So in essence, making the right decision, you just have peace and some people are lucky, graced enough, they find clarity. Some decisions you might not like the final outcome, it doesn't mean you are wrong , in as much as you have inner peace, that is all that matters. I hope when you are making your next decision, you don't do it in a rush, but you take out time to make your decisions, it could make or break you. *And if you have made bad decisions in the past or are currently making one bad one, eeh 💕 adjust 😉, it is never too late* .

Hi, pardon me Oh !! I am going to be the strongest woman known to man kind, i won't let others walk over me,but still I will get everyone to like me. I realise most people sound like my former naive self. Why must I be the strongest? Is there an issue with been strong? No, it's the motive for such decision that matters, some people block their heart to receive love and care ,all in the name of been strong),Why much every one like me? I guess it started from verbal abuse. One thing I learnt from this world, is that,don't let any body get to you. You can either become a better version of yourself or a you can also become a shell of your self if you let them get to you . Aigoo so worrisome,why must I care what you think , why can't I do me ? why can't I express myself freely? why must I pretend to be someone else , in other to keep you? are you worth me loosing my joy, freedom and peace? . No I won't let you take me down!!! No I won't let the small thought you put inside of me take me down,Never!!. Listen society, listen my peers, listen my friends , I am breaking free, I won't let you have me anymore. I won't let you define my pace, I won't let you define how I should look, how I should talk, I won't let you determine how smart and great I can become. Let go of me, I refuse you,I won't let you hurt me. Are you really my friends, why do you talk down to me, why do you make me feel small, but I love you and I trust you , why? You know what ? I am done with you, I won't let you have my peace any more. Buy why parents why do you compare me with other kids? Do you think I am less because I move at a small and steady pace ?.why aren't you sharing my dream? Oh colleagues, why can't you understand that I am different, that I choose not to miggle does not make me less of a person, but I love you dearly. .................................................................................................................................................................................... So this is me just ranting on people behalf, some times you want to scream but you just look up and smile. You know your haters are speaking ill of you, but you just walk past and say hello, wishing them a good day. Wisdom is profited for all who desires it, don't lose yourself it isn't worth it ..............................well I hope I made sense, you guys who upload diligently on read.cash, you guys are the real deal,and this is me sending my respect to you. 21st August, 2021

Does it ever stop??😫 Every day on my way home from work , I ask myself does this ever stop, it feels like a cycle, I want to break free, help, set me free my heart cries.... The traffic is terrible 😭😭😭😭, I left work 6:06pm today only to get home 9:30pm, my work place is just less than equal to 30 mins drive away from my home but I sent over 3hrs on the road😫. 3hrs 🤧🤧. After seeing patients,I also barely got my brain to stop working, only to just find myself in traffic😔. I really want to keep ranting, I wanted to scream, but nothing would have changed . I am sure many people have a cycle they want to break free from, some from getting fired from their jobs,or not getting a job 😬, some from terrible relationships💔, some from heart aches caused by immediate family members, some harassment from their place of work whether verbally or physically, does it ever stop?. Let me give an answer, it does stop😉😈. I plan to break my own cycle. How? I would take a bus to work tomorrow 😁😁 and let someone do all the driving , so yes I am breaking my cycle, even if it is for a day... ****PS:**** I really don't understand why the government have to shut down the road to repair at the detriment of innocent civilians, sad sad. It was really sad seeing people struggle for bus to get to their various home 😑. They practically closed the road and left just one lane for plenty road users to pass, how did they think that would work ? It was one crazy experience today. *****Fast track 👣***** So as I was saying you can break free, remember my last article , a successful man is a disciplined man. You can check it out if you haven't( the article🤔).... so that's how to break free....set target, set standards and do not let anyone distract you from reaching your goal. And hey it is no biggies that you are in a cycle, what's important is that you break free, and trust me, you have got this 💪... I am your biggest fan, rooting for you 😘 **My fellow achievers** For those of us who read my last article , and they decided to discipline themselves concerning two stuffs in their lives; Hi hi , how are we doing? How is the challenge going ? Let me tell you, it been hard on my end but guess what I am pushing. No hard work , or crazy day can stop me 😜. What about you?keep moving don't stop . Yesterday might be rough, today might have been crazy 🤪 but tomorrow will better by God's grace. I love you all 💝💝💝. Have a wonderful night 🌙rest. See you 😘 in my next article. My bed callest me 😴😴😴😴 18th August, 2021.

A successful man is a disciplined man. Lols, why did I think of this topic?🤷‍♀️. But is it really true? Is a successful man a disciplined man? I really love using myself as an example whether in the good or bad light; I am forever hoping I am always a good example 😅. I am working so hard on myself to stay discipline and to keep my dream lit,cutting on unnecessary excesses in my life. It is hard work really, I am not saying it easy, but it will pay off in the end . ....................................... .. ........ ....... We all have dreams , great dreams as a child: 🗣"yeah I want to be the richest person in the world"; then as a teen, good dream,🗣" I want to be the richest person in my country" ; then as an adult okay dream,🗣 "I just to be fine with my family, I don't need too much"..😫😫 Really sad😔.Dreams changes with time, conditions and economy. If you are reading this and you were able to maintain your great dream, kudos to you 🥂. *****What does dreams have to do with discipline?***** We all dream, I dream too 🤭,of that wonderful tomorrow, and that why I keep fighting, we all do (that the fighting) ,that we may bring that wonderful dream into fruition and that takes discipline. The secret to achieving your dreams is discipline, I have studied successful people and also I studied those people who could have been successful and found out discipline made the difference. A successful man set his heart to do something, he gets it done , he know where to pitch his tent and reap great harvest. An unsuccessful man is a procrastinator, he pushing the worth of today for tomorrow, why? He is too tired , he can't kill himself. ***Let's bring it home*** What makes a writer successful, discipline....discipline in posting articles at intended times, discipline in staying true to whom you are as a writer, no plagiarism, discipline in adding value to yourself, improve on your write ups. *****Have you been failing?***** Check mate yourelf .Are you disciplined as you ought to be? Are you a procrastinator? Success is not a mystery,it has never been 🤷‍♀️, hardwork without discipline equals zero....that's why an undisciplined man who pushes the heaviest cartwheel all his life may remain poor and unsuccessful all his life and a disciplined man who lifts the lightest pen to write, remains successful and wealthy through times.so it is not all about hard work, I all about discipline. I don't know which of the example I cited you are, but like I said 😉 checkmate yourself and hey it not too late to make amends. Don't put off stuff you can do now for later, don't put your dream on hold, push at it. If you don't have resources to pursue your dreams forcnow, hey hey 👋☺, add value to yourself,don't lapse, move it💃💃💃. ****Let's do something**** *~~Challenge yourself, it is a new week yeah!!!~~* Write out two things you want to work on, two things you want to be disciplined about, work on it!! I hope you let me in on the results afterwards. You can do it, I am rooting for you.🥳🥳🥳 16th August, 2021.

You are light I found out recently many do not know their place in life, so they suffer emotional trauma 😢,painful heart ache. Sometimes they can't even share their distress, sometimes people don't want to listen to them. Hmmm, really 😥 They find it impossible to think they could just be the person someone is waiting for, they find it hard to believe they are the answer to someone, a community, a city, a country prayers. Unimaginable?🤔 Well you are light, you are set on the hill you can't be hide. You are peculiar , you are different, your worth can't be quantified.. Like I like to tell myself , Honey you are Special special. You are different. I know this fact ,I acknowledge this fact. There was a time in my life , where society made me feel less of myself, society made me feel ugly, society made me feel awkward . Society made me feel like I wasn't needed. Being an introvert does not help either 😕 . *****What Changed***** I Changed, I realised I was created differently, God's word says I am wonderfully and fearfully made....that's why society will view me as different, we all can't be the same. Definitely not!!! I woke up every morning during university days, I looked into my room mirror in the University and spoke to myself;I called out my name, I told myself I am beautiful, God values me and that is all that matters, I am lovable, I am smart, I am kind. Also at that time, I did not like my hair, I spoke to my hair 🙃, you are black, long and luscious. (Did it work? of course it did, I received passing comments on my beautiful afro hair.) ............................. Something began to change, I saw myself differently, then people began to appreciate me more , not that I sort for their approval, but change was evident. *****So no side tracks , back to business 😁***** You can't be light, if you think you are ordinary, just one of the masses..oh my God who bewitched you to think that way? Let me just say, you might not be 100% efficient in one way or the other ,but hey 😉 you are definitely unique. Your friend can't compare to you, you can't compare to your friend ! Why? Because you were just uniquely made Many people suffer because they compare themselves to someone else . So do not get me wrong, I am not saying you can't have a mentor , someone whom you admire and whom you follow in his/her foot steps ,I am definitely not saying that. But in your following realise your mentor is just a pattern, you are the real deal,what's different now with a mentor is that you now have someone to guide you on your path, but yeah ,you are still different. 🤗

Love Love is a very sensitive issue, so many people have misunderstanding on what love is. Many people suffer heart breaks and regrets because they don't know what love is. Aaah😫 Many marriages and relationshios are broken because they don't know what love is . If I understood love , will my relationship improve? Will my heart be kept from been broken? Will he stay if I understand love? 😔 So many questions , but great 👍, there is an answer . *****What love is***** Love is patient, love is kind , love genuine is not manipulative, love is not selfish,love refuses to be jealous, it celebrates at other people success even if things aren't going well with his own life currently, love doesn't pass aggression, love isn't easily irritated. Love knows when to say sorry when he is wrong. Love is not disrespectful. Love does not embarrass his partner. Love believes the best of others . Above all love never stops loving. 🤗 *****Pause***** So I defined love , you can just checkmate your life. Are you really in a love relationship? That friend, spouse or partner who confesses that he loves you ,but yet he/she is not kind to you. If he/she thinks less of you because of your value,monetary wise; then, it is definitely time to take a break or break free from the relationship. 🤔 *****Backforward***** So today at the nysc camp we got our first allowance, 33,ooo naira, that is in Nigeria currency. I was thinking of my God this money is so little 😩, I have so much to do with cash , and right there someone else was rejoicing and the person was like omg!!!😲😁 I am 33,000 richer. Immediately a thought came to me value, see how much our value differs. I thought it was so little but someone else thinks they would go far with such same amount. So if this person, friend doesn't value you, someone else does!! Then I began to broaden my thought till I thought about love , and realised most people when it comes to love. They force themselves into abusive relationships because they value other people thoughts, so they keep hurting themselves to get a ✅ from people who shouldn't matter.... Asides that, in a relationship ,it should be you placing yourself first, because the truth is, if you don't love yourself enough , nobody else will think you are worth loving . 💯. Don't let anyone look down on you, you are enough, you are beautiful, your body size is right , you are lovely,you are just exactly what someone needs and want . Don't let circumstances let you think you deserve less, don't be shy to rebuke those who want to make you feel less than themselves. Tell that man that keeps hurting you, I love me, so I won't let you hurt me, I would not let you make me feel guilty. And if you are a victim of abuse already, don't worry things can change, you don't have to hurt anymore. I would give an example of a fresh wound , once you take care of yourself, eat the right diet and all, it heals. So your heart can heal too...debunk every rubbish you have been told, don't let them win....you are so lovely, you are the most beautiful thing that has ever happen regardless of your past. You are amazing just the way you are 💘.

Are you ready? Are you ready? This is a question I ask myself most of the time. I ask myself Honey are you ready to move to the next phase of your life? Can you handle new achievements? Can you handle new challenges? Do you have resources in place for your next big move? And most importantly as a Christian, are you ready for Christ? I asked myself this question😔, I obviously strongly desire these changes , but 🥴 so many questions😬. How do I go about it? Who should I see? What do I need to do? Hmmm John 4 vs 4. ...Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. I am never alone because God is always with me. Hahaha it doesn't matter what I face, it doesn't matter what I see, what matters is that I see through the eyes of God. Many times people also ask themselves these questions, they also wonder why they are always behind on life schedule. Envy comes in, strive comes in,hatred and many more but dear;pause ;Count your blessings and it would surprise you what the Lord has done . Many also ask Lord, when can I change position in life , but ,how much value do you add to your self? Do you read new books? Take short courses? Do you take time to do self reflection? Who do you follow? Do you have someone to talk to to share ideas? what have you been saying about your life. You can never be greater than your preparations.🙄you can't be greater than your words😑. Take out time to self reflect, there is so much you can be, there is so much you can achieve .So join the race ,for life is a journey, it will only produce what you give.Fight you would win, seek you would find, know and many doors will open. It might take a while but just hold on, one minute more, one second more, you would win. Live life, live fulfilled.
