VALUE. **Is value about money alone?** Let's travel together... I promise it's fun with snacks and chilled drink, you can have your ears plugged too. It's a journey filled up with inspiring and educative experience,so please before I start...I have a word for everyone … Oh! I'm sorry. I sincerely appreciate everyone out there endorsing a little newbie like me, your comments and more encourages me to put in more efforts at getting ready for a better shoot in my jurisdiction. It wasn't funny how these all happened but I should introduce you to someone soon for better understanding of what I'm saying… I'm so honored. Just like I promised you from the start to introduce you to someone, ofcourse, I sure will do that but, I wouldn't like you missing the part before now which were cogent details of the story. It started with a first sight thing or any other sight you could imagine, when two heart melts and beats faster… wow! They both said, is this love? Why do we feel this way? You know the feeling of wanting to see each other every now and then. Phones beeps for calls and text messages, setting out for dates,hanging out with friends on picnics, going together for conferences,serminars and more. There after, it's time to introduce each other to the families and it was a great day as was said, dowries paid and it's wedding time with rigorous preparation from both sides; buying cows, wedding gown and suit, reception outfit for dance hall party, jewelries and accessories, new shoes… Smart event planner seen at the scene moving to and fro like a restless ghost all because we wanted a supreb, top to the notch wedding ceremony. Sorry, I skipped some parts… before these whole preparations, there were marriage counselling sessions attended just to get proper orientation about what the two lovers can find or see in marriage and not just that but to as well know if there are things hidden between them that may stop the priest from been a partaker of their Holy solemnization. This question the priest them( lovers), are you not involved in any thing of such that might hidden the church to coordinate an Holy solemnization ceremony for both of you? They looked at each for a while… let's rewind a little guys, there's a flashback scene… I'm sorry, we had to do this… **FLASHBACK** **Note**: I will be using His as short abbreviation for "Husband" while, I use "Wife" for the woman… though they were not married then but just pardon, so the story go sweet. Hus:Who is that guy to you?( frowns and speaks with rage). Wife: Welcome Babe( in a seductive way, smiles). Hus: I asked the second time… who is that guy to you?( Getting more furious). Wife: ok! Calm down, he's my big brother from way back… he just got back from the states and decided to call at my place to check me up. Hus: I see… and you have been with him in there for hours? only knows what you both had done in there. Wife: ( Surprised) Babe, don't you trust me?. Hus: ofcourse, I do when I saw everything you did… the stunt you both pulled on bed. You've forgotten that we have an appointment with the priest towards our wedding coming up in three weeks from now? Wife: (Got shocked, sobs) I'm sorry Babe, I promise it won't happen again. Hus: I have forgiven you. We'll go see the priest in 10minutes time, so get dressed. ( She nods in affirmation). Let's get this behind us already. Wife: Thank you Babe. I love you!. **Back to our Priest scene** Are you both here with me at all, you both have been staring with each hours. I hope all is well? They both smile and thank God the session went well and it over now. **Story continues…** It was in the night when we heard a loud noise coming out from our neighbors' apartment just like always but this one was too loud that we hardly hear the National news at 10pm. But,we wouldn't like to intrude another person's privacy,so we decided to shun it all act up like nothing happened. Until we heard a loud sounds of things breaking continuously… we all dashed out to see what could be wrong this time that could but our surprise, we saw things flying around so high; cups, plates, spoons etc. The husband explains that how their story started with euphoria, peace, joy and happiness even despite the previous incident( when he caught the wife cheating on him). He said… at first, I blessed God that our path crisscrossed not until these whole thing happened… my wife changed completely to another person entirely that I hardly see what I got married to. He further explains that, she now get crazier day by day with infidelity of all manner… she now smokes, drinks and go out with several men of different caliber. The husband strikes a chord" I never knew she's like this"... She hides so many things from me that I couldn't imagined. A woman with bad habits and character is like someone with Bubonic plague. I thought this our journey is going to be based on this quote " Claw me, and I shall claw thee"( That both of us will be good to each other). But her character got exposed by the day. You remember, I told you that I'm going to introduce you to someone… Character is that person I personified, a man without good character is like a man with no furniture. Now, I believe what this word meant " Character is like flame which can never be hidden". Thank you for reading through again and I hope to see you soon next time. Peace!.

An eternal thought. Welcome back again to my wall and I sincerely want to appreciate everyone who really show some love and value to the previous articles' written. I hope and believe that this will also be one useful piece that will keep mouth salivating for more articles to come, and our minds in check about the details therein. So, as we munch on this together, I will implore to read this in a soft tone with a chilled drink and probably snacks or groundnut… smile, my bad… Enjoy this piece of a pie in one piece. Here we are again to day to ruminate about something cogent and inevitable… There's so much more to what is life but we can not but bring to our remembrance what life is, how it was created, the happenings of this planet earth and what it's after here( The Great Beyond). It's so funny how some people view life or handle it; extortion, imperialism, bribery, laundering of public funds, mismanagement of company, association or organization's capital, ruining another's business, obstructing another's vision. Some people thinks or believes they have the world on their palm yet they are not mindful of what is inevitable, instead they resolved into securing their lives with diabolical means possible. Let briefly check out things we humans desires to have in life; Money, Fame, Peace( in all parastartals: marriage, community, religious outlets, country and more), having a child etc. And se tends to find it by all means they could, whether this ways affects another person's life or not they're not concerned… …No wonder! We have bad habits turning out to be normals in our respective societies; killing, stealing, raping and many more and se questions pop's up in my mind; Does it mean life can't really work smoothly without evil? Do we have to be cruel to one another? This and many more were my thoughts and this remind me of one of my Dad's story about life… I'm sure you will love to hear this, he said to me that do I know why " good trees are cut off suddenly , while bad ones lives for only God knows or do I know why good fruits are plucked quickly from the tree? I stayed for a while thinking about it and when he noticed that I couldn't give him an answer, he then continued with his experience and what prompted the question. He said, when a planter noticed that a tree has grown up into maturity and he, as the planter knows the value of that tree, he quickly remove it from the midst of the bad ones just so that good one doesn't get useless at the end and that it is, for a good fruit if not plucked on time will either fall off and get rotten or is eaten up by birds. He continued, good people don't live long for being upright, determined and firm at upholding fairness, justice,equity,pureness, love, peace and more but at the long run, they still get bitten my the evil venom of the wicked ones. He told further explained to me how his friend was killed for being an honesty person who detest corruption of all kinds… when some groups at his work planned to abscond with the company's funds to better their own lives and never care if the company run bankrupt. Long story cut short, his friend shunned and ignore all their offers and seduction for him to be part of their evil enterprise but little did he know that, for the fact that he's aware of their agenda is a threat to them succeding in what has been planned… … They started with a sack letter probing him with different allegations obstructing his entitlements i.e gratuity and pension. After many years of deep thoughts, he developed a heart disease and it graduated into heart failure which later killed him. So, I said to my Dad… what were those people's attitudes after they achieved their set goals and my Dad grins and said to me; they all became well to do individuals enjoying lives, but one of them came to the burial ceremony of the dead man and confessed how they executed their plans. But my Dad said one of those men who had become something(gatered wealth) via that incident said to everyone present at the funeral service that the bereaved family should please forgive him for been a part of that terrible occurrence which led to another man's doom and death. He further explained that, most of them believe in this quotes; Dead men tell no lie( You're aware of a confidential secret, you become a threat,you get killed for it). Another one; Death is remedy for all ills( when we all, all our problems are solved). But, little did they know that; Death is a great leveller( All people are equal when they die) whether rich or poor, young or old, black skinned or white. I nod my head, and I remember a quote; Death keeps no calendar (some believe"Death" is personified as a spiritual being who may call upon us at any time- he has no appointment book. We never know when we will die. Note: Death speaks language of inevitability and eternity. Watch it, be good and remember that you won't be here forever… Live well! Thank you all for reading through my eternal thought. I will love to hear from you what your views are and will love us to envisage for the more articles coming up soon. Thank you, stay blessed! Peace!!!.
Could it be true? Miracle! Could it be true? Hey guys! Could you believe it? My reaction has been smiling all day long, because I couldn't imagine it to be true. Welcome once again to my wall as we go on a walk through an unbelievable experience I had just the other day, though I'm a newbie here but I know with you all on this journey with me we're going to soar higher… So, I implore you to stay glued and tuned as we learn and laugh together. Digress; What's "Miracle"? Is it magical as some affirm? How does it come? All these were the questions pounding in my heart before now. Miracle! I have heard people speak about this but I have always thought it's just a fantasy that could not be seen… but now I do have some knowledge about what a miracle is. Have you ever caught a fish before? Isn't that a miracle to you? Before much ado, let me quickly check some meaning to "Miracle" below: *A wonderful event occurring in the physical world attributed to supernatural powers. This means that, miracle is always an astonishing event in our world, where people gather around to rejoice with the celebrant. Imagine a woman who went through a surgical means to deliver a baby and yet it was successful… The comments from the outside world are "this is a miracle" and they believe it's from somewhere… it now depends on where that miracle came from, I mean the source. Let's check another point about "Miracle"... "A fortunate outcome that prevails despite overwhelming odds against it". This rings a bell, writing Jamb( Joint Admission Matriculation Board) wasn't a big deal but gaining admission into an institution isn't funny at all and can be stressful, few people could relate but it's all counted as joy when you finally gain that admission into that institution of your choice. Or you bid for a contract and after several struggles, funds spent you finally win the contract " what joy will fill up the atmosphere? You will even go out to testify. Another one that explains what "Miracle" is; " An awesome and exceptional example of something". Wow! This tells us that there's an happening that could cause people to have no other comments but to describe someone, something or a place as a miracle i.e "Seven wonders of the world". Now, my experience about "Miracle" gives me an understanding that, whether you see it as magical or attributed to a supernatural being… there's always a part of commitment which probably propels or invokes that miracle experience… It was a miracle to some when Elon Musk rose to notable heights but we can never sideline or leave out the point of struggles. Don't just be the one waiting for miracles but the one meeting miracles… it's two different thing, to wait for miracles to happen and you meeting miracles in your way to being better for yourself. Thank you for staying throughout this journey. I hope that I did a little justice to this and I will love to hear from you guys, your miracle experience. Keep watch on the next articles coming your way. Stay tuned, stay blessed!.
Hello, I just posted on my wall and I like it that you see and let me know what you think about it. Thanks.
Just being Me! What a wasted time talking about this!( I muttered)... A friend kept on pounching me with series of questions that filled my ears up and I couldn't even focus on anymore. Infact, I almost forgot that I'm right in the class with an on going lecture from one of the "No nonsense lecturer" as he's tagged by the students for his zero tolerance towards indiscipline amidst the students during lectures. Back to my friend's enormous questions… what happened Fred? He asked and I tried to explain to him in my own way… is it a crime, being Me? That was what she said to me in a rude manner. My friend couldn't comprehend this, so he asked further question; what happened?. It all started with a rush as the doors to the lecture hall was opened by the janitor. Immediately everyone quickly rushes to get a seat, knowing fully well what day it's( busy day with full house tasks and schedules) and that was what I did when I make that horrible mistake sitting next to this girl… my friend cuts in… which girl?. The new girl Grace, who nicely dressed up with a classic outfit but intentionally choose to "being herself". My friend looked at me and said to me "Yes, there's nothing wrong in being Me" but how did this affected your mood today? He asked… could you believe how this new girl messed up my entire lecture time. I can't even focus on my business of the day because she couldn't zip up…She exposed her laps throughout the lecture and after some hours, I reached out to her after the lecture to expressed how I feel about her actions during. But to my greatest surprise, she wasn't remorseful about all that I explained to her and with the comments of others around us. She said to me, I sweat a lot and I need air…so, I get it when I want to and it has to be in a way. Then, this word crossed my mind… does being You have to affect others around in a terrible way; some will fill up the air with bad smell and still claim to "Being themselves". The question now is, is it crime being Me? No, it's not but...Watch this, if being yourself is at the expense of another person's comfort… watch it!.

Target Audience. MY LOVE LETTER TO YOU. Episode 2 TARGET AUDIENCE Dear, We met at the cross conference a few months ago, where we exchanged pleasantries and I shared my aspirations and ambitions with you.

You told me that, you will drop some of the filthiest "items of the world'' that you will put aside all other writers piece of work and follow my lead and that you put upon yourself to be my public relation officer, but on the line you got swayed by the heats of this world, you lose focus..
