I'm leaving readcash Good day to everyone, I've not written any article for a while now because this time around last week, I woke up to my account been marked as spammed account, at first I thought it was a mistake and then later I thought maybe it was a dream, then I later realized it is reality and I have to deal with it. I don't understand why, infact I don't know what I did wrong, I've checked all my articles, they were original articles born out of my thoughts, I even checked my comments maybe some of it were rude or erotic but I couldn't find any, I've followed all readcash rules steadily but still my account got spammed. 😭 Well, all is well. I know I have to move on cause I've taken out time to think about it so I'm quite ok now to talk about it. Thank you all for your love and kindness towards me, I know this is just a phrase in my life and in glad for all the awesome friends that I've met here on readcash, you guys are amazing. On this note, I will like to say goodbye to everyone and I will be leaving readcash for good. It is well you all and you will do much more on readcash, y'all should enjoy your stay here. Bye!!!!!

Maintaining your inner peace is important I was just rambling through some of my dad's old camera today when I saw an old picture of mine taken while I was still in high school, it made me remember how I totally lost my inner peace then due to a particular event that happened then at my school. For that whole year, I was like a shadow of myself until I realized that I can't satisfy everyone even if I'm the very best so since then, I try maintaining my inner peace and I never let anyone or situation tamper with it. Here's the deal, I do not lose my peace of mind over the things that are beyond my control, I believe that one of the major causes of stress is when we try to control EVERYTHING. We want to control people’s perception of us, the weather, traffic, how our partners should treat us, etc. Let me rain on your parade, You can't control everything! Some things are just beyond your control and so I don't think you'll be doing yourself any good if you continue to lose your inner peace or happiness over those things. *If you find yourself losing your peace of mind then this post would benefit you.* I'm going to briefly touch on ways you can find your inner peace and happiness below; **Love yourself** I recently discovered the reason why we must love ourselves and trust me, I learnt it in a hard way. We've read this so much that it's almost cliche but it is so valid. One way to maintain your inner peace and be happy is to love yourself. You shouldn't wait on anyone to love or acknowledge you. Love yourself and others would do the same. **Focus on your passion** Focus your attention on those things you love, find your passion and do your best with it, it's gonna give you happiness. I've grown to learn that there's nothing as beautiful as doing what you love. **Be grateful** A grateful person is a happy and peaceful person. Instead of thinking and beating yourself up over the things that are not going well, why don't you be thankful for the things that are going on well. **Meditate** Meditation makes you feel so focused and calm because it helps your brain have better control over processing pain and emotions. Meditate on your past achievements, meditate on ways to improve yourself, study people's life an history, make researches, meditate as much as possible, you will realize how energized you can be. **Forgive yourself and move on** Don't let your past mistakes define you, we are so forgiving when it comes to other people. We are quick to forgive others but we do not extend the same kindness to ourselves. You need to let go and forgive your past mistakes. You can't keep dwelling on how you messed up or what you could have done better. Take the lessons, be a better person and move on. **Be content** Practice acceptance and contentment, you can't be happy or be at peace if you aren't content. “Contentment” doesn't mean you are not ambitious. It is an emotional state of satisfaction. It's more like peaceful ease of mind so accept yourself for who you are, I'm not saying you shouldn't strive to be better, just accept yourself and stay contented. **Exercise more often** Exercising is a great therapy for the mind. Exercising will help calm your muscles, relaxes your mind, focus your attention on things which you can achieve and thereby brings happiness. **Declutter** People can feel held back by their mess so decluttering can make us feel like we have a fresh start which can be energizing. Try arranging scattered places/things or change the former arrangement of a room to a new one, it makes you feel like a super hero 😂. For example, whenever I do my laundry and tidy my space, I feel on top of the world. Living in a cluttered environment can increase stress and anxiety. I will conclude by saying this, anything that cost your peace of mind is too expensive, and if you love yourself, others will take a cue and do the same.

Relationship questions and answers Hello peeps.. how was your day? I will be answering some relationship questions in my today's article and I will be as sincere as possible. Without wasting time.. let's get right into it💃. **Can you continue your relationship with someone that slept with your best friend?** No, I can not. How on earth will I be comfortable with someone that has no regard for me? Someone that cheated on me and not just with anybody, with my best friend? It's never gonna be possible no matter how convincing the excuse may be. I can't even continue the relationship with someone that cheated on me with any random person talk more of someone that cheated on me with my friend, that's a high level of disrespect I must say. Well he can't even be the cheating type in the first place because I'm also not infidel. **Can you get married to someone you are not compatible with medically?** NO, I'm not sure this is even worth contemplating on. When a person is not medically compatible with you, it means that their genotype/blood group (and some other medical stuffs I don't know) does not match with yours. If you dare get married to such person without a proper conviction that you are meant to be together, you will sure regret it because you will both start facing medical challenges. I don't even want to be the cause of somebody else's problem cause imagine getting married to someone who our genotype does not match and then we give birth to a child and the child starts suffering sickle cell issues, the child will regret coming into the world and even we the parent will not have peace of mind. **Can you marry an abusive partner?** Definitely not! Marrying an abusive partner is not even an option not with all the people's stories that we have been hearing. Marrying an abusive partner is like you signing your death warrant because you never know when you will be beaten to death. (I'm sorry that I'm being kinda pessimistic here, it's not my fault, it just the issues of life that I have seen). **Can you marry someone with no source of income?** Well No, I can't marry someone with no source of income. I'm not saying someone that is not rich, what I'm saying is someone that has no source of income at all. He should at least has one, do you know this readcash is another source of income even if it might not be enough to feed a family. So he should have something doing so that we can both support each other and put together both our source of income. **Have you ever fell in love with someone at first sight?** Not really, I have actually crushed on someone I'm seeing for the first time but I can't say that is love. I'm not sure there's is love at first sight, if you are seeing someone for the very first time and you feel like you love the person, it might just be that you are crushing or lusting after the person though as time goes on, you might develop a strong love feeling towards the person when you start getting aquainted together. **Can you ever imagine yourselves in an homosexual relationship?** Hell No! There's is definitely no way I can be in an homosexual relationship, Infact this is like the worst thing I've heard of and I hate sight of it so much. **Can you marry your friend's ex?** No I can't, I've been in a situation whereby i have to decide if I should accept the guys proposal or not but I couldn't because he was my friend's ex boyfriend. I do like the guy but I just couldn't get myself to accept the guys proposal. **Are you currently in a relationship?** No I'm not and I'm not sure I'm entering into one very soon. `This is my relationship Q&A, I hope you find it interesting and you can as well ask me whatever question you want to ask me in the comment section below, I will be glad to answer you. You can as well do your own or re-create the questions the way I recreated this one.` I will like to appreciate @Ellawrites on her sponsorship renewal, I'm grateful sis 🙏 Published date: 25th of May, 2022 Published time: 18 : 16 pm (WAT) Author: © oyinwrites Lead image source https://unsplash.com/photos/hhq1Lxtuwd8 Thank you for reading and do not forget to subscribe.

I overcame it Good evening my readcash family, how are you all doing? I guess you are fine. The amount of rain that poured in my side today was so suiting and pleasing to the body that I wished it wouldn't stop anymore, just kidding.😂 It's been so long I slept like a baby, today was so good, I slept like I haven't slept since the past 10 days but to be sincere, I haven't been having a good night rest for quite sometimes now so I slept everything off today.😂 Sorry for diverting, now to the point of today, **I overcame it, I had my greatest embarrassment of all time and I overcame the embarrassment stigma.** In my previous post about overcoming public embarrassment, you can check it out. I wrote about how you can overcome embarrassment, it might look as if I know so much about this, yes I do! and it's because I've been there and the measures I laid out yesterday was from experience. I just felt like sharing my embarrassment story with you all. https://read.cash/@Oyinwrites/overcoming-public-embarrassment-35c312e6 It all happened one particular day at a church of about 1000 people, it was a yearly youth program and I was supposed to take the lead for a praise session. I hadn't really prepared well I guess because of somethings that I was going through then, I was not so sure of taking the lead and I feel like I should just give it to someone else but I summoned courage and I took it. OMG! It was a failure, I sang from one key to the other, I couldn't maintain a particular key, I sang multiple off keys, it was nothing to write home about. People shouted when I took the last song because the key was really bad, some people burst into laughter while some felt pity for me, I saw disappointment in so many people's faces as they were already expecting so much from me. I disappointed everyone, a congregation of about 1000 people? What a disaster! That particular moment, I felt like a failure, like I was a disappointment, it was such a difficult and devastating period of time for me. The program has been going on well from the beginning, even the choir department has been doing so great from the start but I ruined everything. I was lashed with words from different people at the end of the program, everyone stated looking down on me, it even became a centre of discussion for everybody, I was so embarrassed. I became so depressed that for good 3 days, it was so difficult for me to eat. I avoided that gathering entirely for good two years even the fact that I was part of the program executive, it was really frustrating. I had to keep making series of excuses anytime there's a call for executive meeting, I thought I was a failure for 2 years and I stayed away from music despite the fact that I love music so much and I've sang in different choir band. After about two years, I came to the reality that I can do better when I attended a seminar about self development, we were taught a whole lot of things about ourselves. From thence onward, I started working on myself and being the best version of myself, anytime I feel down I count my achievements and I make positive affirmations about myself. I started music back and this time around, it was awesome, I could face multiple of congregation without fear, even people that had lost confidence in me regain their trust back in me and I now love myself now and believed more in myself.

Overcoming public embarrassment Good day to you my friends, I'm so sorry I haven't been able to attend to everyone's post, I've been quite busy but I promise to do justice to that before the end of the day. According to history, embarrassment do not just happen privately with a single person, it works hand in hand with the public space and that is why the dictionary regard embarrassment as the state of feeling foolish in front of others. Embarrassment leaves a feeling of guilt, fear, shame amongst others, it can sometimes lead into self pity, low self esteem and depression. Embarrassment somehow is inevitable, each and everyone of us has in one way or the other experience an embarrassing moment in our life. Embarrassment can come in form of a very major one that can send a person into instant depression while it can also come in form of a minor one which can be easily gotten over. If in the case of a minor embarrassment, some measures like Deep breathing: Holding of the breath while breathing in and out. For instance holding the breath for about 5 seconds while breathing in and doing the same while breathing out and repeating the process over and over until you feel better. Humor: This is trying to change the subject of the matter into something funny. It does not necessarily have to look as if you are just trying to divert the people from the real situation but you just want to make them feel they shouldn't take the whole matter seriously. Smiling: Trying to put on a smile can help calm the situation, just wear an healthy smile so it can look as though it's just a trivial issue. can help overcome it but if it's in the case of a major embarrassment, the above points alone might not be able to help overcome it unless some other practices are put in place to help out. Practices like: Positive affirmations: saying positive things to yourself can help cool down your nerves. Things like "embarrassment is meant to happen", "I'm not the first to feel embarrassed", "I can do this", "I'm not ashamed of this", "mistakes does not define me" etcetera. Positive affirmations helps to increase your self confidence. You can also think of what you would have told a friend if he/she was the one in that kind of situation and say those words to yourself. Counting your achievements: This is one thing I do alot whenever I find myself in a messy situation, I try counting my achievements. I look back at everything I've achieved and I try making a list of them, this is therapeutic. What it does is that it helps you regain back your self confidence, you will now feel like you can do better than you did previously. Confronting the root: look for the reason the embarrassment happened, if it's something that has to do with your incompetency, strife to do better, it's ok to admit that you messed up. Do not just run away from the shameful experience and starts avoiding everybody that was there when the embarrassment happened, face it, confront it, look for every opportunity to do that thing again ( make sure you can do it better this time around) let everyone see how good you can be in that thing. Making use of the lessons learnt from the experience: I usually say this in every of my article, there can never be an experience without a lesson either good of bad experience. So make use of every lessons that you learn from the experience, it can be the way your friends took the whole situation, you can get to discover who your true friends are. Well this is me talking from experience. Seeking help: some embarrassment can take a whole lifetime to recover from them, I can remember when I also did something wrong in the presence of thousands of people, I felt so embarrassed that it took me almost a year to recover from it. I dealt bitterly with shame, fear, guilty, depression, low self-esteem and self pity so if you feel everything I've listed above didn't work for you, you might want to consider seeking professional help like going for psychological therapy or see a counselor. ***This is Oyinwrites, your favourite inspirational, motivational and real life story writer.

Mastering the trick of recovering from failure Failure sometimes can be pushy to give up, it's makes you feel like you don't deserve that thing in the first place and all you wanna do is to give up. It might look stupid or foolish to keep on trying and persisting on the same thing all the time but what if this is your last try? Just what if? That's the more reason why you have to keep on trying cause you never know when you will hit that jackpot. In order to get yourself together and recover from that failure, here are 8 things you can put into consideration to do which I know will go a long way in helping you bounce back to your feet. **Accept that failure is needed in your journey to success** There's a popular quote which says that "failure is like a stepping stone to success" which is very true. It's so impossible to be successful without ever failing before, it's might sound weird but it's just the irony of life. If you've understood that failure is part of success then you wouldn't be so much concerned anymore about failing. Abraham Lincoln failed right from when he was 21 years of age up until he was 52 years of age and that was when he achieved his first success. You can read more about him, you will learn alot from his story. **Let your heart out** It is ok to cry when you have to, if you have to stay alone for some time just so you can reflect on your life, then do so. Do whatsoever you have to do in order to get better. Infact crying is a good mental therapy, cry your heart out, you will realize that you feel better after crying. **Learn from your mistakes and reflect on it** One thing you should realise is that for every failure made, there is always a lesson to learn from it. Be practical with yourself, ask yourself some important questions like what did I do in the wrong way? Was I suppose to have done this differently? How can I improve in the areas I did not do well? Asking yourself these important questions and many more questions relating to your source of failure will help you in order to improve yourself and know how to do it better the next time you try again. **Take action for your mistakes and never blame other people.** You have to learn to be able to take action for your mistakes, don't ever think it is because if someone's mistake that made you fail. It's true that sometimes when we fail, it looks as though that it is other people's fault and we would want to keep blaming them for our mistake but we should realize that we could have as well cover up for their mistakes through our success. To take for instance, it's always common for the choristers to blame the instrumentalist anytime they make mistakes, they feel like if the drummer had drum well enough or if the pianist has done better, the mistake from them might have been avoided which isn't so true. We've seen cases where the instrumentalist fucked up but that didn't stop the chorister, her glorious voice covered up the mistake of the instrumentalist. Majority of us are guilty of this and we have to stop it, it doesn't help us to get better. **Give up your need for approval** Looking into the causes of failure deeply, we would discover that the fear of failure is mainly caused by the fear of what people will say or the way they will judge you. I was also a victim of this for sometimes before I understood that you need no one's approval in your journey to success. If you don't do away with your need for people's approval, this will be limiting you to do great things because you will always be fearful to do new things because of your fear of failure. **Do not give room for pouting** Pouting is not a good approach to success, you have to be ready to talk to people about your problems. Never feel like keeping it within you and carrying a sad face all around will help the situation, it wouldn't help and it wouldn't affect anyone else but you. So you have to cheer up and talk to the right people about your failure. **Don't be too personal about your next goal** Do not take you goal too personal, it's very important to be goal oriented but too much of everything is bad. If you take your goal to personal that is you are already expecting so much from it, it will be so difficult to accept when you fail in it. **Never give up, get ready to start over** As long as you have practiced the steps listed above, then be ready to start over. Giving up isn't an option at all, it will only show how weak you are. It's very common to feel down anytime you fail and believe that people no longer have confidence in you because you have failed them, no do not ever think that way, all you have to do is to make them see the better version of you, make them realise that you can do better, work on your self and try again. NEVER GIVE UP! After taking these steps and it looks as though it isn't working for you, you might want to consider trying other things, **maybe the fault is in your goal**. Consider changing your goal to a more realistic one because sometimes we might be doing what is not meant for us and that might be the cause of the failure. Try out something else, it's likely going to work out.

I want to be able to read people's minds Hello good evening to you all, I will be answering some puzzle questions in today's article, I just said I should play around little today. I got these questions from @Kushyzee @Aimure and @Honey_bch and I will also like to participate in it, it's going to be fun💃. Thank you guys for starting this. So without wasting time, let's get right into it; **Get even or get over it?** Let's not deceive ourselves, whenever someone does something painful to us, we all like to get even with the person so the person can feel the same pain we went through. This is not because we are evil but because we are humans and it's blood that runs through our veins. I like getting even with people before but when I discover who I really am, my perspective about this change and right now I can tell you that even if you do something so hurtful to me, I just walk pass it like I didn't even get hurt at all. It's not so easy to get over things but trust me, it's the best thing to do if not for anything, for your mental health. **Have no internet or no phone?** Well I'm gonna pick "have no internet" even if anytime I don't have data subscription, it normally feels like I'm sick, I will still pick having no internet over having no phone. At least I will be able do make calls, take pictures, listen to music, watch my favorite telenovelas, create some offline video contents, take people's number and so on.. Having no phone will literally means you will be going out with bare hands and not even phones to make calls in case of urgent situations? No that wouldn't sit well with me. **Be invisible or read minds?** I would prefer to be able to read minds because it will also me see through what people have in mind for me, I would know their true intentions. This is what everyone need in this country of mine😂 cause there will no more be deception as everyone will be able to see each other's mind. I swear that even all this kidnappings and killings will reduce, imagine wanting to board a bike and you start reading what's on the bike rider's mind saying he wants to sell you off to ritualist, would you board the the bike?😂 Definitely not, so trust me when I tell you this is what we need in this country. Even all these relationship heartbreaks will reduce because you would have know your partner's true intention before marrying him/her. **Being able to rewind time or being able to pause time?** Being able to rewind time does it better for me, rewinding time will definitely mean going back to my childhood days, I will be able to set some things straight again or probably get to spend time with my Dad 😢. Pausing time might not really have effect on me now as I still have a lot of time to achieve all what I want to achieve on Earth. **Breathe underwater or be able to fly?** I want to fly please so in case of any circumstances, I will just fly out or fly up or even fly away, sounds amazing right? Yes, nah my country cause am.😂 I also would like to be able to breathe under water but this questionnaire wouldn't allow two answers, maybe I would even be able to swim and fear will stop catching me 😂. But then I will still go with be able to fly as that is more important right now. **Have one wish granted today or 3 wishes in ten years' time** This is confusing me somehow but I think I will go with having three wishes granted in ten years because I have so many wishes inside of me and I can't bring myself into picking one of them but I can still merge everything up into three. I also want some of my wishes granted very fast but to be sincere some of it can wait so I will be picking having 3 wishes granted in ten years. Shalom! ***Questions answered guys so you can answer yours too and tag me so I can see your own answers and as well share my opinion. Thank you guys for reading. I love you all❤️*** Published time: 22 : 53 pm (WAT) Published date: 17th of may, 2022 Author: oyinwrites Please subscribe guys if you haven't and I will see you in my next post. See you soon😘

Fighting for God Can God be fought for? Or should I say can we fight on behalf of God? This issues has been on my head for quite sometimes now because I don't seem to understand how some people tend to fight for God. Something happened in my country that is actually prompting me into writing this article and I will be sharing it below. Something about religion was posted on a particular school group and someone replied that things like that shouldn't be posted and that only school activities should be posted and some set of people took it up and said that the girl is blasphemy against their God because she belongs to another religion. She was picked, beaten and burnt to ashes and according to them, they said they have to do in order protect the name of their God and also to fight for their God. Now the question is should we kill other people all in the name of religion? Shouldn't God be allowed to fight his own battle? For all I know, God is a very powerful and he can fight for himself without anyone helping him. You should ask me how I know God is such a powerful God and he can fight for you no matter what even when you are not doing anything but just waiting on him to help you, it's because I've experienced how mighty and powerful he can be and I would be sharing one of his wondrous miracles. I used to have a friend while growing up, we attended the same high school and she was a very good friend of mine. One particular day, her parents were assassinated before she got back from school and by the time she got home, she met so many people gathered at the entrance of her house and then she was told that her parents were murdered. She was so devastated not just because get patent were dead but also because it was a very close friend of her dad who was also a politician like her dad that murdered her parents. She knew it was them because series of event happened to proof that it was her parents friends that murdered them but all efforts to make them pay through the law proved abortive, I guess it's because of the power and influence they possess. At that point, she became so depressed and all she wants was revenge but she couldn't get the revenge she wanted. It got to a point she had to stop and just focus on serving God genuinely, it went like that for years up until she graduated from the university. At first, it looked as if God wasn't going to punish her parents murderer but in due time, God showed up as usual. Her parent's murderer died in a car accident with their two children, all their family were wiped out completely. What a wonder working God! You see why God can't be fought for, he is capable of fighting for himself. As much as you know that you are fighting for a just cause, just leave it for his and see how he's gonna fight your battles for you unless you know that the cause you are fighting for is not a just one, then God will just keep watching you and he wouldn't fight for you. And also, **let's all stop this religion discrimination,** it doesn't help, we can all live like one big family without anyone having to lose his or her life. I pray God helps us. Amen! `Thanks for stopping by🤗` Published date: 16th of may, 2022 Published time: 23 : 20 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites Please friends do not forget to subscribe if you find my post useful, hope to see you in my next post.

Beware of sudden blessings Good day dear friends and happy Sunday to you. How is service in your church, I guess it was fine cause mine was awesome. Let me quickly rush through my writing for today which is "beware of sudden blessings". We all know blessing is a good thing, ofcourse everyone wants to be blessed but on the other hand, we should be careful of the type of blessing that comes too sudden, suspicious and undeserved. I know churches preach about receiving undeserved blessings and even pray for us to receive such and we all say Amen (even me😊). If we receive a blessing that we have been praying for long time ago, we would be very happy and we would start enjoy our blessing. It's not that type of blessing I'm talking about, what I'm saying is the type of blessing we were not even expecting or we don't even know we can get anytime soon and then it suddenly came, shouldn't we be careful and look through it well? I'm not even saying we shouldn't receive it, all I'm just requesting is a little bit of research. I know what it feels like to be very happy when you receive a particular blessing, you tend to shut your eye to every other thing around you even if it's a caution against the blessing you just receive, we term everything as "God's blessing". Well there can be God's blessing but we should always remember that the bible says that "the blessing of God maketh rich and he addeth no sorrow with it". So any blessing that is threatening our peace of mind and somehow looks like we would get into trouble soon is not a blessing from God. `I've been watching a particular philipino series for quite sometimes now but an episode of it caught more of my attention because it speaks more on this topic and I will be sharing with you guys.` *There is this guy in the series, he is a police officer, a very dutiful one at that, he is so bent on apprehending criminals and he has received a lot of awards for his contribution towards the apprehension of criminals in the country. Because of this, he has so many enemies who wants him to go down and also have friends who live him for who he is. One of his enemies who is also a police officer decided to set him up so he would also look like a criminal. He did several things to frame him for backing up the drug syndicates in their country which one of it is sending someone to ask him to participate in a raffle draw that he was going to win a car if he wins. He concurred and tender his signature out without even checking the content of the raffle draw print I guess because he was overly excited. They later came to his place telling him he won the car and handing over the car key to him and he was asked to sign another document which he did without checking the content again. He later felt some kind of unrest because everything looks like a magic to him but he wasn't so sure if his emotions. To cut the long story short, the car and the signature was later used as part of the evidence to proof that he was supporting the drug syndicates and he was sent to prison.* From my little narrative, it has proof clearly how careful we should be when receiving sudden blessings. Some might just be a trap from our enemies and some might be a set up in disguise like the case of the police officer above. There were lots of things around him he could have paid attention to but he decided to turn a blind eye to it like how those people who came to give him a car knew his house because he never gave them his address. As from today let's be watchful and careful and I pray God gives us the wisdom we need to handle situations like this. Amen!

Boring things we do in order to cure boredom Being bored can sometimes be inevitable especially when you are alone and you have no one to discuss issues with, then you will have so many things kept inside of you which you wish to spill out. Boredom is a state of the mind and requires activities which will lighten up the mind in order to cure it. We can say boredom emanates from being idle so you might have to get yourself busy in order to cure it. In today's article, I will talking about 12 boring things do in order to cure boredom, ofcourse it would make you busy therefore cure boredom but it will still be boring things to do. 12 things we do to cure boredom which are also boring but are advantageous. Playing video games alone Listening to a podcast Hand - washing your clothes Writing letters Deep cleaning your bathroom Washing your windows Practicing an online workout Rearranging your book's table Organizing your pantry Learning a new language Organizing your closet Mopping the floor Looking at all the points mentioned above, we would discover that majority of the points involves learning a particular thing or working. That is to say, learning a new thing aren't always easy, it makes you feel more bored and you always wanna give up so quick and that's because we are humans, we are created to naturally dislike learning but we shouldn't let that deter us from learning, we should keep on learning. I remember during the lockdown period when I was feeling so bored at home, we weren't allowed to go out so much, infact alot of places I would have loved to visit were already shut down. I resulted into playing around with canva, I started learning new graphics designing skills, at first, it looks so boring but as time goes on, I fell so deeply in love with graphics designing and would always want to learn more, I guess because anytime I see the beautiful designs I did by myself, it makes me so happy. If we also do the works in our house that has been lagging for a long time whenever we feel bored, at the end of the day we would appreciate our boring period. Even if we do some workout whenever we feel bored, it would make us stay fit and we would love ourselves even more. There are also lots of interesting things you can do to cure boredom like going out with friends, watching interesting series and movies, going to the cinema, listening to music, attending parties and so on.. but when you take a good look at the things mentioned up, you will realize that they don't really add any advantage to you whatsoever. At the end of the day, you will discover that you gained nothing, it's either you have even loosed something or your friends loosed something cause you might have spent so much money eating out or watching a movie. Well I'm not saying it's not good to do some interesting things when you feel bored (I also do then), it's very ok and even therapeutic **but as much as you are doing interesting things when bored do some advantageous things too.** Published date: 14th of may, 2022 Published time: 10 : 55 am (WAT) Author: oyinwrites If you find my post useful and interesting, please kindly subscribe, thank you and see you soon.

Small scale business ideas with little or no capital (cont'd) I wrote in my previous post about business ideas with little or no capital but huge profits where I talked about four more businesses in which you can start with little or no capital and it is so profitable. In today's article, I will continue from where I stopped in my last article, I will be writing six other businesses in which you can start with little or no capital. https://read.cash/@Oyinwrites/business-ideas-with-little-or-no-capital-but-huge-profits-1ac52557 Social Media Management: Are you a good content creator? do you know how well to handle a social media page? Can you create a good graphics design or are you a good writer? Do you have a very good communication skill? Then this business is for you! All you have to do is to look for people or organizations in need of a social media manager and then you apply. You can also start by being so active on social media and managing your own social media pages very well to the extent that people will start to wonder who your social media manager is, then you will gladly let them know it's you, you can start receiving offers from there. This requires no capital to start. Pastry making: This business involves making of pastries ie. Buns, doughnuts, eggroll, sausages etcetera. Are you in a student filled environment or do you notice people in your surroundings usually go to a very long distance just to get pastries? You can consider starting this business, just make sure you learn the appropriate skill for the business and get the necessary equipment needed to start the business, then you are good to go. You can as well make this pastries early in morning and then hawk around the street or to a school, you can even carry your pastries to sell to the food/groceries stores around you. This requires little capital to start. Blogging: Are you a lover of blogging and you love writing. I want you to know that it is very possible to start blogging with just your knowledge and a very good mobile phone. Do you have knowledge in the basic aspects of life like education, fashion, travel, photography, politics, religion, business and the likes? All you have to do is to create a blog and start posting what you know in it, you can as well do some promotions to promote your posts. You will start making some cool cash. This does not really require any capital to start. Food processing: You can also start a food processing business, it involves buying of live animals, cutting them, removing the unwanted parts, washing them very well and packaging them for sale. This business is a very profitable one especially in this era that people get so busy because of work even women. There are so much women who needs very fresh processed foods for their home, just do your part in processing the foods well and neat to make it look appealing and also learn how to market them well, then you are good to go. Animals like poultry birds, goats, pig and even cow can be used for food processing. This requires quite a capital to start up but it's still affordable. Checking through the businesses I posted yesterday and today making ten businesses altogether, they all require hardwork and consistency, it might look difficult at the start but it will make sense on the long run through hardwork, sacrifice and consistency. I already gave some of the businesses trial and I'm doing some of it already (though the ones I fell in love with and found purpose in). You don't have to do everything, just find the one you love and have passion for and give your all into it, it will surely make sense in the end. **Majority of businesses does not always look good in the start but as time goes on, it gets better. Ask a successful business mogul you know!** **I hope this helps you. 😊** `Note: Lead image made by me using canva` Published date: 12th of may, 2022 Published time: 22 : 50 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites *Hello friends, thanks for stopping by, if you find my post useful, please do subscribe 🙏 .

Business ideas with little or no capital but huge profits We are most likely aware that there are lots of businesses out there which could give really good profits but in today's article, we would be focusing on the small scale businesses which can be started with little or no capital and would give a lot of profit on the long run through hardwork and consistency. They are as follows; **Affiliate marketing:** This involves marketing a product for an organization and when people purchases that product through you, you will get a certain percentage of the profit. This type of business only require a good marketing skill and a good online space, no capital whatsoever to start. As long as you know how to market products well, then you are good to go. All you have to do is to look for companies online that are in need of online marketers and help them market their products very well like it is your own product. **Resume writing:** Are you a very good writer? Do you know how to construct a very good resume or CV? Then this business is for you. Just get people to see how good your writings are by posting online, introducing your type of business to people and so on... **Ice block production:** This business is a very lucrative one, it might look so small but you can make up to 120$ monthly from it, it is tested and trusted. It is likely you have a deep freezer in your home so all you have to do is to have a little capital so you can get containers of different size which can contain enough water and then freeze it till it becomes ice. A lot people needs ice block especially food vendors and party caterers, just make sure you can market it very well and also be very consistent in the production, you will be surprised at how people will rush it. Image source https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/an-ice-making-machine-which-placed-in-modern-restaurant-gm994162480-269243380 **Modelling:** Do you have all it takes to be a model? Then this is for you. I will like to use this medium to correct people's perspective about models, being a model does not necessarily mean you are a whore and you don't even have to open all body to be a model, you can be a model and look/dress decently. I'm also a model so I can tell you I'm the decent type. There are different types of models, if you are interested in being a model, go online and make your research on the different types of models we have then you can be sure of which one you would want to venture into. This also needs no much capital, all you have to do is to take nice and creative studio pictures from time to time and then post them online especially if you have a very big social media audience if not, you can promote the pictures to reach a larger audience, from there you might start getting modelling deals. You can also search online the model agencies looking for models, if you meet up with their modelling demands, you can apply. Modelling can also bring so many opportunities like influencing deals, ambassadorial deals, movie feature and so on.. Special thanks to @MichaelBCH for his sponsorship, I'm so grateful bro.. greater heights I pray🙏 **Cleaning services:** Starting up a cleaning services might at first look degrading as you would want to bring yourself so low to the point of sweeping, mopping, washing, cleaning people's houses, cars, plates, clothes, toilets and so on but it will get better on the long run. I have a friend who started this kind of business while in school and she normally make an average of 100$ monthly, she never gave up. She now has a very big cleaning service outlet where she employed different staffs for different duties, all she does now is to sit in her office and take orders from people in need of cleaning services then she calls on her staffs to go do the cleaning and she pays them at month end. You can also start this big as long as you have the capital to start up. **Mobile food vending:** You can start up a mobile food sale, all you need is a very good cooking skill. You just have to prepare different delicacies of foods in your house, then you can have a very good and reliable transport agency that can help you deliver your foods very quickly to any location within your state at any given time. Market your meals very well and watch how orders starts rolling in. This is a very good business in this generation because people now have to hustle from morning till night even women and making meals have become a very big deal. All people just want is to sit in their comfort zone and order meals. You can also hawk foods from one street to the other with a food truck, that way the food sale will be more fast and before noon, you could have been done selling. You can also combine the two together, just that you will hire someone to take care of the hawking for you and that's it. *To be continued tomorrow....* `Note: Lead image made by me with canva and all other images from unsplash` Published date: 11th of may, 2022 Published time: 10 : 48 am Author: oyinwrites If you find my post informative and useful, please subscribe.

Movie review; "way back home", summary and lesson learnt Way back home is a Filipino movie which major character is "Kathryn Bernardo as Johanna" and "Julia Montes as Jessica". They play the role of sisters in the movie, they were born with silver spoon and they were living the best life they could live. The little kid sisters both love each other dearly and they always look out for other and watch each other's back. The elder sister(Jessica) who was about 2 years older than the younger sister(Johanna) both went to the beach together with their mother on a particular sunny day, the day looked so bright. As they were playing beside the beach, the mum told Jessica to watch over her younger sister that she quickly need to be somewhere and that they should stay where they are that their father will soon meet them there, so she left. Jessica tried her very best to watch over her sister at first, she even teased her and played with her so much and they both had fun but she later got distracted by some set of sea animals she saw by the beach side and also how the other kids were playing with it so she and her sister ran towards the direction to also go play with it, they played with it so much and it looked so fun. All of a sudden, she looked beside her but couldn't find her kid sister who was about 4 years anymore, she searched and searched the whole of the place but couldn't find her and just when she was still searching for her, their parent arrived and also joined her in the search but couldn't find her as well. They scolded the Jessica terribly for letting her sister go missing and for not guiding her enough. Life goes on! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Jessica had grew into a young beautiful girl who was in high school, she loved swimming so much and she gave her all into it, she has also represented her school in several competitions which she won but in all this, her mother never appreciated her, she was always been treated like an outcast since the incident that happened to her sister. Her mum would always blame her for the cause of her sister's missing status, she would always bring up the issue anytime they try to have a conversation. She never for once got a thank you anytime she does something great, that made her so mean to people and she even rarely smiles, she always feel like no one genuinely love her. As time goes on, they found her missing sister, I guess she was taking in by a woman living by the beach side so she could take care of her since it looked like she was wandering around with no one to care for her. She had been living a poor life since the woman that took her is somewhat poor so she was finally found by her real family and they decided that she should follow them back to their mansion and start living with them which she did. Johanna was also a very good swimmer (if not better than her sister) she also go for swimming competitions too and she wins. Jessica started getting jealous at the way her sister was been showed love while she was neglected like she doesn't matter. Johanna would be appreciated and celebrated for any little achievement while she would not be recognized even if she had major achievements. The two sisters started quarrelling and they couldn't get along though the younger one would always want to play with her sister and at times wonder why she was always aggressive but she couldn't understand why. Jessica would called series of names and she would cry and cry. It got to a point she decided to move out of the house and nice back to where she was staying before which she did. Before then, something happened and Jessica almost lost her life, she was about drowning in the sea when Johanna saw her and helped her and she was rushed to the hospital but before Jessica could wake up in the hospital, Johanna has already back to where she came from. Jessica started to feel bad and she thought she was the reason why Johanna went back. Her mum consoled her and told her it wasn't her fault and that she was the one that caused it from the start. She furthered to apologise for all her bad behavior towards her. They all went together as a family to visit Johanna, Jessica apologized to Johanna and they all reconciled as family. **THE END...** Two major lessons I learnt from this movie Love all your children equally and never discriminate. Always learn to forgive, forget and let go of the past Lead image from Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:WayBackHome2011.jpg `Disclaimer: This article is only for entertainment and educational purposes and falls within the guidelines of fair use.

How I managed to survive depression Good day dear friends, how was your day, I'm so sorry I've not been able to write since 4 days ago, I've been busy working on some graphics designs for a particular organization and it has been quite stressful and exhausting and I couldn't do anything else or even have time for myself. I hope I'm forgiven, thanks 🙏. While I was going through @BCH_LOVER post about depression, I decided to share my own experience about depression and how I overcame it. While growing up as a teenager, I was very slim and that made me to start feeling uncomfortable about my body because here in Africa, people tends to make slim people feel bad about their body like they are some sort of garbage. At first when I was around 14 years of age, I didn't allow what people were saying to me get to me, I always assure them that I would get fatter as time goes by but unluckily for me, I didn't get fatter up until when I was around 22 years of age. Funny yeah? I know 😁. Infact it looked like I was getting slimmer at some point in time. When I clocked 17 and I graduated from high school, that was when the depression started, I would see alot of my school mate, they will look so big like they were older than me, some will even shout in a very open space that "Oyin, when are you going to get fat?" I would feel so embarrassed that all my daily activity for that day will be prosponed and I will just return back home gently. I could remember one particular family event we had in those days, I was 18 years of age then, I started seeing my cousins that I had last seen four years back again. They look so big that I found it so difficult to recognize them. Some that was even younger than me looked so bigger than me like they were older, I was the only slim person in the gathering not even my own siblings. All of a sudden, one of my aunt said that I was too slim and she even doubts if I'm truly a member of their family or I'm just picked up from the street to be taken care of, I felt the way I have never felt in my life, I couldn't even do anything again till the end of the event. I just stayed at one corner looking at how everyone was rejoicing, dancing, gisting and doing all sorts of things but I couldn't and it looked like I was neglected. I then started feeling like maybe I'm not truly a part of their family. The next time we had a general family event, I couldn't go, I had to pretend like I had malaria to my own family so they would allow me stay at home in which they concurred to but my mum didn't take so long in the party before she started coming back home cause she thought I was truly sick. But before she came back home, I just sat down on the bed of my room lonely and had cried myself out especially when I saw the several pictures each of them were posting online and how happy they looked. Even though my primary reason for not wanting to attend the event was because I don't wanna feel depressed but I guess depression for me then was inevitable. Just when I feel like exploding, my mum arrived and I talked out my mind to her and so she encouraged me and started telling me stories about her own teenage days too, how she was also slim and how she later added weight and people started envying her shape so I felt encouraged and I decided to move on with my life and never let what anybody says get to me anymore. Just when I thought everything was ok and I'm fine again, some other things would come up again that would make me feel depressed again, people would start asking me several silly and irrelevant questions like; **Are you sick?** **Is your mother also slim?** **Do you have a medical condition?** **Are you on drugs?** **Why are you so skinny?** **Did you offend anyone?** **Are you a sickle cell patient?** **Do you have ulcer?** **And a lot more questions I can't even remember now... .** It got to a point I started feeling insecure too about myself and I decided to visit an hospital to do a check up on myself if truly I was fine and I was not suffering from any form of illness. After series of tests and scan, the doctor said he couldn't find any thing wrong with me and that I'm very fine so I encourage myself and left the hospital. One thing I noticed about depression is **low self esteem** because according to my own experience, I started feeling insecured about my body and the way I looked so I couldn't go to places I normally would like to go, even if I go there, I wouldn't do things the best way I can do it because I always feel like some other people would do it better than I do. Looking at my life right from when I was a child, I always took first position in whatsoever I do because I was always so good and never feel shy about anything but things changed when I started clocking teenage years. One particular day as at when I was about 21 years of age, I attended a seminar about overcoming low self esteem, alot of speakers were invited to come give a talk about the topic and how they overcame the challenge, so many of them said their stories and I felt so bad for them that I started to thank God for my own life. I learnt so many things in that seminar that even my thinking ability changed completely and we were each assigned a mentor to watch our progress in overcoming low self esteem. My mentor was a very kind and lovely lady, she did a very great job in mentoring me, she would always call to check up on me, she would tell me beautiful things about myself like "you are might just be slim buy you are beautiful and your skin is as light and flawless as a milk" (in which they are true). I started a weight gain journey in which I'm still on right now, I always go for exercises that focuses on building of abs and other necessary parts of the body and also changed my diet plan to meals that give more calories. Trust me when I tell you that I've really added so much now 😊. **List of things I did in order to overcome depression** **I got myself a mentor (very important please)** **I worked on myself and tackled the source of my problem** **I go out to positive places more** **I connected more with like minds.** **I changed my circle of friends** **I got busy doing things I love to do and never stayed idle for once** **Always count my achievements instead of my failures** **I try to be the best version of myself in whatsoever I do** **I guarded my mind so well and never allowed whatever anyone was saying get to me.** **I believed more in myself** `These are the steps I tried out (maybe more) in order to overcome depression and it really worked well for me, you can give them a trial also if you are going through depression. I hope it works for you too.` I also want to say thank you to my new sponsor @Talecharm thank you so much.

Are you truly ready to get married? I think this is a question every persons planning to get married should ask themselves. Are you ready? Being not ready does not mean you are not you are not old enough to get married because that is what lots of people judge being ready with. Age is not only the factor to getting married, there are series of things to look out for. ****Things that determines if you are truly ready**** **Love** Love according to the dictionary is the mutual feeling between two people. Love is a very essential factor in marriage, love should be the driving force towards marriage not lust. It is such a pity that what is driving alot of people these days isn't love anymore, it is lust. Even if we see the potential in another person, we would prefer to go with the one that either has more money or that has a more defined shape (that would still change on the long run). We should make sure we get married to the person we love and loves us too not to the person that love us but we don't love and vice versa. Do not allow matchmaking, don't feel you are getting old and just get married to anybody anyhow or to someone you really don't know well but was matchmade for you. **Maturity** The couple must be matured enough to get married. We have some aspects of maturity in which you must possess all in order to be regarded as being truly matured. **Age maturity**: You must be matured in age, though some people might just say that age is just a number, ofcourse age is just a number but you must attain some particular age before you can be regarded as been matured. Do not rush too early into marriage, as you grow older, you gain more knowledge and have more experiences. So age is an important factor of maturity. **Psychological and emotional maturity:** If you cannot take the stress of heartbreak and your heart is too flexible, it's better you wait till when you are emotionally fit. I'm not saying your spouse or spouse to be will break your heart, what I'm saying is that you don't know what the future holds so you got to be psychologically stable. We seen some cases where by the wife learnt that the husband has another wife and children outside of the marriage and the next thing the wife did is to kill herself. If we look into it very well, we would realize that the wife isn't psychologically fit to be married. It is important we check our mental health before thinking of getting married. **Financially stable:** We also should be financially independent when thinking of getting married. Let's be frank with ourselves, marriage comes with a lot of responsibilities that requires financial contribution. If you are planning to have a sweet and stress free relationship, then you must be financially stable. Being financially stable does not mean that you should have all the money or luxury in the world, it simply means you should have at least enough money or resources to cater for yourself and your partner. Also when I say financially stable, I'm not limiting it to a particular gender, even we the ladies must be financially stable, we don't have to always depend on the man. We should try as much as possible to support our spouses in paying the bills. One gender should not overly depend on the other gender, it weakens a relationship. We should also think of the children we would be bringing into the world, we have to start planning how to cater for them right from when we are in a relationship. If it is difficult to cater for yourselves now, how then do you expect to cater for your kids when you have them? Or tell me, do you want to bring innocent kids to the world just to suffer? ***To be continued...*** Published date: 30th of April, 2022 Published time: 22: 22 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites *If you find this post useful, please subscribe.

Greed and covetousness Jane and Lily used to be very good friends infact they are like sisters, everyone would always admire them whenever they walk through the neighborhood wishing to be like them. They were so adorable, they love each other so much that no amount of words could break them apart. They are both so beautiful, of average height, light in complexion and has nice shapes. They both live in the same neighborhood almost beside each other's house and both work in the same company. They have always been like that right from when they were kids, they both attended the same school all their life even when they did a second degree in the university. That's the reason why it was so hard to break the two apart. The only thing that differentiate the both of them is that one of them had a boyfriend while the other does not. Jane had always had a relationship right from their college days but she broke up with the guy after she graduated from the university to date a rich guy. Her relationship was going on well and she seems happy with guys level of wealth not until Lily met a more richer guy who loves her so much and their love life rumor isn't fading away anytime soon. Immediately Jane realised that Lily's boyfriend is way more richer than her boyfriend because Lily's boyfriend bought Lily a very nice and fancy car but her own boyfriend couldn't afford it so he bought her a very small car, she started behaving in a bad way towards her own boyfriend. She would call him series of bad names, she had quickly forgotten how the guy used to buy her so many beautiful things without hesitation, he would make sure he gets her whatsoever thing she needs. All the love Jane shared with her boyfriend suddenly became hate just in the twinkle of an eye all because of greed and covetousness. She now wanted Lily's boyfriend by all means, she started seducing him so he can fall for her but he didn't even take a glance at her twice. Jane started to turn her back against her childhood friend, she would cook up lies against Lily in the presence of her husband so he could start hating her and dumb her afterwards but no matter how much she tried, she didn't get Lily's boyfriend into hating her. Lily and Jane started quarrelling because Lily found out every of Jane's act and they became enemies. Lily later got married to her boyfriend while Jane's boyfriend quitted their relationship because of Jane's recent bad behavior. She started to regret all her action but it was too late for her to out things back into place. Lessons learnt Do not always let greed and covetousness control our actions, the truth is we are humans so we are bound to want something better but not to be greedy. We should always be satisfied with whatsoever we have and we should not let other people's achievements of properties get to us.

One month on readcash.. yayyy Hello dearest friend, how are you doing? I hope you are doing well? I'm writing today about my one month journey on readcash. I can't seem to keep calm and I can't believe I've used one month in here, well it's true and I'm so excited. My readcash journey started one month ago when a friend of mine introduced this site to me, she said it is a paying site and I will be paid for writing great contents on the site. I didn't believe her at first not because I have a doubting spirit but because I have joined some other sites over the years which I later had to exit it as the activities on the sites differs from the information I was being given about the sites in the first place. So I thought readcash will just be the same but after much convincing conversation we had, I decided to give it a try but trust me, I'm so glad I took the decision to join, it's just so overwhelming.

Imagine a world without women marginalization (cont'd) Good day friends, if you can remember I started a series on imagine a world without women marginalization few days back where I wrote about women being restricted to a particular point in some areas of life, so I'm continuing it today, you can check it out below. Imagine a world without women marginalization https://read.cash/@Oyinwrites/imagine-a-world-without-women-marginalization-c4ecd1a8 *I will base my today's write up on what we can do in order to eradicate women marginalization (Just my thought though)* **Changing our mentality** I must say that everyone is affected by this, we all have to change our perspective about life generally before we can change our perspective about genders. If we see life as a place to come and fulfil purpose while living the best life you can, then we would understand why both genders has to help themselves achieve what's best for them. It's high time we come to a realization that the both gender need each other to achieve a world without flaw, if we still keep seeing no use of one particular gender or if we still keep thinking that a particular gender is only meant a specific purpose, then trust me when I tell you that we are not yet ready for a turn around in the world generally. We have to change our mentality about making money because some people think that it's only the men that should be rich and that's why when some women make more money than their husbands, the husbands tend to abuse the wife or get mad at her unnecessarily. We also need to change our mentality about the purpose of women's existence, there's this popular saying back in the days that "no matter what certificate a lady might have, she will still end up in the kitchen" this is a very wrong mindset because women can also be great leaders in the society, they don't have to be restricted to just being a full housewife or just someone who should give birth to a dozen of kids in the home. We all really have to change our mentality about this in particular, let the couples help each other out with everything in the house including the house chores and every other thing there's to do and let's watch his the home of so many people will get better. **Loving genuinely** Learning to love each other genuinely is the key. One of the things I've learnt in life is that no power or force can stand against true love. When I say "loving each other", it does not apply to couple alone but also applies to every living being. Loving your neighbors as yourself even when you have every reason not to, loving your relatives very much that even when you hear evil things about them, you still decide to love them, loving your wife/husband so genuinely that you have so much compassion on them and all you wanna do is to keep on loving them in whatsoever situation they might be passing through, loving your in-laws genuinely that if things are not going on well for them, you still care about them and you always want to help them out and loving anybody that comes your way. Considering all what I listed above about who to love, you will realize that **LOVE** is the major factor of every good thing that happens. If a husband loves his wife genuinely then no one can easily brainwash him about marginalizing his wife even when they are going through tough times, he will still stand for her and stand with her. If a mother in-law loves her daughter in-law genuinely, she wouldn't victimize her when she's yet to give birth to a child because she wouldn't think that giving birth is all she came to do in a marriage. If a family member loves one of his relatives genuinely then whenever he sees her making money after long years of suffering and hard labor, he wouldn't be thinking that she did ritual or she's a prostitute. Let's all try to change our mentality today and also learn to love genuinely and watch how women marginalization become a thing of the past! `To be continued...` Published date: 25th of April, 2021 Published time: 20 : 08 pm Author: Oyinwrites If you find this article interesting, please do not forget to subscribe.

"Keep learning everyday" is not just a phrase Blessed day to my precious friends, I hope you guys are doing well? I'm writing this article on the topic "keep learning everyday". Some people think that learning is for some certain group of people which can be a very wrong impression. Learning is for everybody including the little children and the elderly ones. There's a popular saying that says "you die the very day you stop learning" which means you don't ever have to stop learning as long as you are alive. What exactly do you even understand by learning? To my very best understanding, **learning means growing**, it means as you learn you grow. When we say learning, we don't mean going to classes or attending a particular lecture to be taught, it simply means growing your knowledge every passing day, picking lessons from everything that happens in your surrounding. You must not let anything pass you by without learning something from it. Before I continue, I want to use this medium to appreciate my first and newest sponsor for believing enough in me to think of sponsoring me. I'm so grateful 🙏 . Shout out to you @Ellawrites you guys should check her out, she writes amazing contents and she is really talented and good at what she does. *********** Lots of people don't find any reason to learn from whatsoever goes on around them because they feel they are not affected by such. Well you might not be affected by it now but you never can say of the future, you might just need that approach to settle something you are going through then. Sometimes, God brings somethings to our way not just for pleasure or sorrow but for us to learn a great lessons from it. I'm actually writing this out of experience not just vain talks, I was caught up in a situation where I had to apply the knowledge I gained from what happened around me and it worked well for me. It is such a pity that people don't learn, we have alot of things going on in our surrounding to teach us lessons and give us approach to life's issues. I'm writing with so much pain in my heart, remember that I wrote an article about running for your life immediately you sense a form of violence in a relationship or marriage, you can check it out. Run for your dear life https://read.cash/@Oyinwrites/run-for-your-dear-life-7b93e695 It's so painful to me that an aunty of mine fell victim of domestic violence in her husbands house and despite every warnings that she should quit the marriage, she didn't harken. She has used up to 20 years in the man's house with violence since she was married to him, recently when an issue happened in my area and a woman lost her life to domestic violence, I remember calling her advising her to quit now when she can but she refused. It's so sad that she almost lost her life too yesterday, it was her neighbours that quickly rescued her and took her to the hospital. It was so severe that she broke one of her arms and she's still unconscious as I write this. Yes we know this life is not a bed of roses but also not a place to suffer everyday when you have lots of issue around you in which you can learn from so you don't repeat the mistake which the people before you made. As from today, begin to learn from whatsoever happens around, trust me when I tell you that this has really helped me alot. It will help you too in your journey in life, some of you are just here on this site just to earn money and you don't even learn anything from the articles you come by, it's very wrong of you. Everything happens for a reason, it means you definitely have lessons to learn from everything that happens. **Learning everyday as you journey through life is very important. I wish you good luck as you journey through life!** Published date: 24th of April, 2022 Published time: 00 : 55am Author: oyinwrites Don't forget to subscribe if you find my write-up useful for you.

Imagine a world without women marginalization Firstly what is women marginalization? Women marginalization means differentiating of women, restricting them from doing or getting involved in some activities like social, political, religion, family activities etcetera. It's also a form of gender inequality cause to my own knowledge, I think it's gender inequality that birthed women marginalization. Image source https://rb.gy/ftuor3 According to a constitutional law, it is said that everyone has equal rights but it's such a pity that in the world today, women has lesser rights compared to men. Women has been limited to a particular point in every sphere of life, we all might be in one way or the other guilty of this. We feel women can't handle some positions in life and we wouldn't want to entrust some important stuffs in their hands which I can tell you that has draw back the world at large politically, religiously and economically. In politics today, we all feel that women can't handle a higher political position that they will mess things up which isn't always true for every women. I think this should be a thing of one's personality and not gender, even when we see how good some of these women can be and the good things they have to offer, we still choose to ignore it cause they are not men and they will become emotional at little things and would not be strong enough to handle a nation if trouble arises. It's so funny that when it's comes to an high office, we see women as weak vessels but when it comes to working their life out at home with household chores without any pity they are humans too, they suddenly becomes a stronger vessel. Agrhh! Image source https://www.forbesindia.com/media/images/2020/Mar/img_129007_genderbias.jpg Looking through at how women are been treated in the family is outraging, we see female children as nothing compared to male children. When a woman gives birth to purely female children, she is seen not quite different from a barren woman because we all feel like she hasn't given birth to the heir of the house. In some cases, if she didn't later give birth to male children and all her kids were girls, the husband might decide to marry another wife. Some has even neglected their fatherly duties in the house because they feel that it is the duty of the woman to take care of the kids and this has led to alot of kids lacking fatherly love. The women are not helped in anyway with the chores at home. Even if the woman is going through some unbearable situations in the family, they still feel like she should continue and endure whatsoever she's going through because she's a woman, really? Image source https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2020/05/21/gettyimages-503536842-7161358359a3b5a694fa7f25419342bbaa1c28bd-s600-c85.webp Even in the religious societies today, we see alot of women marginalization happenings, some churches do not allow female ministers while some think that any position in the church that the women is handling will not be handled well. When some people see that it's a woman that is heading a particular church, they stops attending thinking that the woman might have some hidden thing she's doing to fortify herself and the church. Especially if the woman is really doing well or making alot of money from ministry, they start to doubt if truly it's God that called her or she's just pretending and getting involved in some secret affair. It's so heartbreaking! **Let's all stop women marginalization today!** ***To be continued...*** `Note: I'm not a women advocator neither do I detest men. All this article is about is purely to stop the discrimination amidst both gender so that both gender will be treated equally. MEN ARE GREAT LEADERS AS WELL AS WOMEN. That's my point!` ***I might choose to continue this article in my next post or any other time buy I will surely finish it.*** Published date: 20th of April, 2022 Published time: 18 : 17 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites *Thank you for stopping by, see you in my next post.*

What I encountered while trying to explore life Good day you all it's been a while here, I've been busy lately, I had alot of work overload this week that's why I barely even had time for myself but I promise to show up more often on readcash as from now. PS; I've missed my readcash family alot and I hope you are all doing well? As I was working on a dress yesterday, memories from teenage years started flashing my mind. Ok I think it's because of what happened to a particular girl child in my area, she was caught having s*x with some guys in her school at a very tender age of 10 years... While checking through her social media pages, I discovered that she has not been properly trained considering the type of dresses she puts on as a child.. well that's really not the point of this article.... While thinking about my past life, I remembered what I did too as a teenager... While in the college, I always loved how girls of my age explore life, going to meet up with guys who will give them money after having nice time with them, doing all sort of fun things but the problem then was I was restricted because I had a very strict aunt that wouldn't take nonsense cause I know that any little mistake I make in that house will lead my way out of her house. I had been living with her since I was a child cause I lost my parent to accident and my aunt is a very strict one so I couldn't join those girls even when I had the opportunity to join their group. When I left college and I turned 18, I felt a need to explore as I think I was now matured enough to do whatever I want, little did I know that I have to achieve some stuffs in life in order for me to explore just the way I want. I started going out often, going to parties, club houses and the likes... Until I met one particular guy.. oh my God! He was all I ever wanted in a guy, he had this nice looks, he's so stunning, handsome, fair skinned, tall and has this great sense of humor, to crown it all, he's rich! We started our love affair, one thing led to the other and we took our relationship to the next level. What's this next level? Guess now🤔 .. ok let me tell you, We started having s*x (being a college graduate then without job, no university admission, don't even have a goal and vision for myself 😁) It was such a beautiful moment of my life as I was enjoying myself as much as I wanted to. What a bliss! One faithful day, I started feeling feverish, I was nauseating, vomiting and also lost appetite, I thought I had malaria or typhoid so I took malaria pills but after a week, I was still feeling the same way so I decided to visit the hospital to have myself checked up and that was when I found out that I was 3 weeks pregnant.. oh my God, what will I do? I quickly hurried to my boyfriend's house to inform him of the development, on getting to his place, I caught him with a friend of mine making out, I couldn't believe it, I quickly hurried out of his house crying knowing fully well that I'm in trouble. I later found my way back to my aunt's house, when I got there and I explained everything to her, she didn't hesitate to have me thrown out of her house without anything to take along. I became a pregnant teenager roaming round the street without anywhere to go, I sleep anywhere I find myself. It was such an horrible experience coupled with the series of rape I encountered from the area boys. Oh damn it! `My advice to young girls out there is that they should never be too quick to want to explore life, make sure you achieve everything you need to achieve in life and you will see how everything you have always wanted will come running after you.` ***Note: My teenage story aspect of this article is nothing but fiction and it's born purely from my imaginative thoughts.*** Published date: 19th of April, 2022 Published time: 19 : 37 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites *Thank you for stopping by, see you in my next post!*

Knowing the red flags in a relationship Ok before I start , I shared in my last post about marrying an abusive partner and why you should run for your life. I said in the post that you would have seen some reg flags while in the relationship with him/her. If you wanna check out my last post, click on the link below Run for your dear life https://read.cash/@Oyinwrites/run-for-your-dear-life-7b93e695 The truth be told, character can never be hidden but the problem with alot of people in love is that they love with their heart and not with their head meaning they won't think about anything while in the relationship, they believe everything their partner tells them. I'm not saying you shouldn't believe or trust your partner but everything should have limit, don't be too obsessed about him/her that you don't think about your own life anymore. Do not make him/her the God of your life. Some even sees the reg flags so clearly in their relationships yet still got married to such fellow, it is such a pity when you hear some people say he has been slapping me while we were dating but I thought he would change when we got married but he got worst and he started hitting me. No just tell me what you were expecting, tell me! That when he finally gain full custody over you, he will suddenly change for a better and starts treating like a queen? When he hasn't even gain full custody over you and he knows in his heart that you can still leave him, he still treats you like trash so you now expect him to start treating you right when he knows he owns you and you are not going anywhere? My sister **THINK**! Anytime you see an abusive fellow, you can easily recognize them cause they can't hide their behavior no matter how much they try to hide it. The truth about majority of these people is that they are damaged inside and all they need is help; therapies, counsellings, etcetera not marriage. If you check majority of their background, you will discover that something is missing, it's either that's how their parents were also behaving when they were kids and that attitude has sink into them since they were children up until they became adults and this has really damaged the good nature inside of them or they lived with someone with that attitude or something traumatising had happened to them since they were much younger that triggers violence anytime they remember it. So here are some reg flags to watch out for in a relationship or courtship Are they always free to tell you things about their past and present life? Is the way they treat other people good? (Even if he/she treats you nicely) Is he/she the type that gets angry easily and could not always control it fast unless something gets ruined? Is he/she the overly jealous type especially the ones that gets jealous of your success? Does he slaps, beats, throw stuffs at you, yell at you or abuse you for every slight mistake? Does he/she hates you having friends or family around you? How does he/she relate with his family members; his siblings, parent and other relatives? (Very important) Do they tell you they have no family member at all? (Make your research well if that's true or they are just lying because they are hiding something) Have you check their past relationships to know the cause of their breakup? Does it look like they are hiding something from you like going through their phone or entering into some particular rooms in their house? `Note: There are some other red flags in a relationship to watch out for but I only mentioned the ones I know (you can add yours in the comment section though😁). Just know which works for you, if you are in a toxic relationship, you know but you don't just want to admit it. I'm not a relationship coach at least not yet but I'm just writing all these out of experience from people I've met in life, what some friends and family are going through and so on..` In conclusion, stop believing a damaged person will change easily like that, you will sure gets damaged too before they will think of changing. Also don't be too obsessed with their nice behavior, some of them have good nature in them naturally (they were supposed to be good people) just that they are damaged probably because of their past so no matter how good they are supposed to be, they will still hurt you. Immediately you start to notice any toxic behavior, quit the relationship. Don't think they just made a mistake by hitting or slapping you. It will repeat itself again! **Quit that toxic relationship now!** Published date: 15th of April, 2022 Published time: 10 : 05 am (WAT) Author: oyinwrites *Thank you for stopping by, I love you!*

Run for your dear life Beware of red flags in a relationship. Should you agree with me that in anyway, if a future marriage is gonna have fault, you will see some certain reg flags while in a relationship with your spouse. I'm not saying that if a man is gonna be hitting you when you get married, he would have started hitting you since you were dating, what I'm saying is that there will definitely be some signs he would have been showing you while dating/ courting him. (I will talk about ways to detect reg flags in a relationship in my next article) Now to the topic of today So now my point is even if you fail to see the reg flags while you were in a relationship with him/her and you already got married to your partner but now he/she is maltreating you especially if it already involve domestic violence, my sister**, Run for your life!** See let me tell you the truth, even if you are just going through some form of hardship and maltreatment that does not entails him hitting you, you can still endure such but immediately you see that he's slapping, hitting or throwing stuffs at you, **please and please RUN!** `Something happened some days back at my area and that prompted me into writing this article. I will be sharing below.` A celebrity woman was beaten to death by her husband and according to the Police investigations, it was discovered that her husband has been hitting her badly with belts, metal objects, wire.... since she got married 10 years back. **Ten good years!**😲 When the police also questioned her children, family, neighbors, friends, pastor and so on.. they all said they know about the husband violence towards the wife but they normally tell her to endure the suffering and beatings from her husband and that God hates divorce. You can imagine? God hates divorce?? Yes we all know that it is written in the bible that divorce is wrong but to the point of death? Hell No! It's not even compulsory you divorce him but you two can start to live separately and see each other once in a while if need be. As much as God hates divorce, he also hates abuse, he hates violence, he hates murder, he hates you for not loving your wife enough to be able to beat her up. He hates all manner of evil. When it comes to violence, divorce if you have to, don't suffer in silence, speak up if you have to, don't listen to haters telling you to endure the pain and hardship because you guys are married, trust me they don't like you cause if they do, they wouldn't dig your early grave for you. I said your early grave? Yes your early grave! You still don't know that everyday he beats you, he pushes you nearer to your grave? Yes he does! He can't be beating you everyday and you are expecting to be growing healthier. Absolutely not! You will be deteriorating in health as day goes by so please I'm begging you to leave now when you can. Do not wait till you something bad happens to you and you cannot run anymore. **MAKE THAT DECISION NOW!** Published date: 13th of April, 2022 Published time: 16:01 pm (WAT) Author: Oyinwrites

Beautiful yet ugly (rhymes) Beauty is appealing Everyone is blessed by it The eyes is attracted to it The desire is watered by it A beautiful lady is fair to look upon She walks in swam of admiration As though she is a crystal diamond But ensnared by imbalance attention She is pleasant to the eye of men Escalated by the attention of men Enraptured by sweet comments Always glorified for her freshness Though one is as beautiful as a rose Attractive as a fully budded rose Pleasant to the eyes like a newly bought couch Decorated as Solomon pouch How then can beauty be uglified? It is nothing but bad character That 'uglifies' any pretty woman It makes awkward the most admired It makes the most beautiful most ugly Turns back the feet of admirers disgustfully Chases away suitors from her daily Draws back helper of her destiny To achieve a thing becomes difficult Especially finding true love Making her single for so long Getting a life partner becomes her prayer point Forgetting about her bad character And her rude lifestyle Thinking it is her family background That is victimizing her On her quest of finding true love It's likely for her to find a bitter love Cause even if she is supposed to be loved Her character will ruin it all It is shown clearly now How beauty can be uglified They say, a good character Is the ornaments of human! One thing I've realized about people with bad character They never assume they have bad character I know that no one is a perfect human Everyone has one flaw or the other But having a flaw is different from a bad character If your character is bad, admit it now So you can find help to your problem of long time And also get to find people who will truly love your type If you find yourself in the shackles of bad character It's never too late to change for a better Have control over all your actions as from now If you can't control your actions Go for therapies relating to your kind of character And also trace your steps back to your maker He will give you a sense of direction And help your life, It is well! `Note: Am sorry if anyone is affected by my article in one way or the other, this is a very harmless post and not in anyway intended to harm anyone, it's just to point out the bad issues of life.

Beautiful yet ugly Image source https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/beauty-beast-5130160.jpg Last week as I was heading to work, I overheard two girls discussing about someone being beautifully ugly and that left me with the thought of how someone can be beautiful and ugly at the same time. It took me a while before I could remember what happened some years back which made me realize what exactly beautiful but ugly means. *There use to be a lady on my street then who was very beautiful, she was tall, light in complexion, her skin was so appealing to the sight, her shape was gorgeously sculpted, her dimple was so pronounced, she always had on this beautiful smile which made her look more beautiful, see her beauty can not be overemphasized. She also works in a well reputable organization owned by some group of white people. I always admire her anytime I walk pass her back then so do majority of guys on my street even though I was quite younger then, I know all that was going on. One day, I boarded the same vehicle as her, I was the one that first entered then she entered after one woman carrying palm oil gallon entered too and sat beside her. She started feeling uneasy then she suddenly shouted at the woman "mama, carry your palm oil gallon very well o, it must not stain my fine dress o, I know that you don't know how much it cost in the market because you don't have money to buy this kind of dress". Everyone inside the vehicle that were so surprised at her level of rudeness, some of the people started cautioning her, "hey young girl, the woman you are yelling at is old enough to be your mother" she didn't even respond to any of the people cautioning her instead she just hissed and brought out her earphone and inserted it into her phone and ear. When I got home that day, I told my elder sister how rude her behavior was and she said that she knows that she lacks character because she also has had an encounter with her before, then she narrated her own ordeal with her to me. She told me of how she was going to work one day while the lady was driving her car very roughly knowing fully well that the rain just fell and that there were pit holes everywhere in which made the waters from the rain stagnant inside, she suddenly splashed water on her dress and instead of her to say sorry, she started yelling at her that it was her fault and why would she just stay at the middle of road doing nothing and then she drove off roughly splitting more water on other people's body. I was amazed at how rude and proud she could despite how beautiful she was. Majority of people in my street hated her so much, the ones that even liked her were only pretending just because of what they could get from her. Since she has approached a marriageable age, she could not get anyone to marry her cause alot of guys does not want to marry someone who has more ego than them and even the ones that still wanted to marry her despite her flaws couldn't marry her because their parents would not support it. Rumour has it that anytime she gets to her in-laws house, she would behave so nastily that her mother inlaw would chase her out like a dog despite her physical beauty. Up until now, she's still single and haven't gotten anyone to marry her.* It was then I realized that her story is just a case of a lady who is **beautiful outwardly** and **ugly inwardly** then I conclude that you can be **beautiful yet ugly**. Please this is just to admonish everyone of us to always be at our best behavior, we don't always have to be rude towards people, it's so common in this my side of the world, young beautiful girls tend to become rude just because they are beautiful. You can be beautiful and at the same time be well behaved.. see I can boldly tell you that a ugly girl with a beautiful heart will attract more likers to her side more than a beautiful girl with an ugly heart. Even if you are beautiful with a bad behavior and it seems like you have many friends now and that everyone loves you, trust me when I tell you that on a long run, they will discover who you really are and they will stop liking on you or they will stop wanting to be your friend. **Change that bad behavior today, you can do it!** If you are inspired, do well to subscribe.

Waiting without wasting Good day to you all and happy Sunday, I hope we all went to church cause I did and service was super amazing. We were taught alot of things but one of the things that we were taught today and I like the most was ***"waiting without wasting"*** and it was anchored by our head pastor. It's a very sensitive topic and it talks about God's plan for our life in relation to our waiting period. Some of the points I note down are as follows ****God has a plan for your life******:** It doesn't matter how much delay you might have had in the past years, he has a great plan for your life but you can't see it now, all you will be able to see now is the suffering you are going through during this waiting period and all you just need to do is to trust God and he will help you during this waiting period. ****Your future will seek you out******:** what God has in store for your life in the future, when it starts happening, it will look miraculous cause you will not be able to comprehend it. That's why I said your future will seek you out because even the people that have mocked you in the past will start to adore you, even the people that don't know you will start to have a vital knowledge of you. ****Know that no matter what delay you have in life, it's because you are precious to God******:** You can't just have delays if you don't have good virtues coming your way. It is written in Jeremiah 29 vs 11 that "*for I know the thought I have towards you, the thought of good and not of evil to give you a hope and an expected end*" God has a very good plan for our life, it's just that sometimes we aren't patient enough to see it. All we want is fast blessings but there's an adage that says "*the patient dog eats the fattest bone*" I want us to know that if we are seeking for something now and have not heard received it, it's because God loves us and he's planning something way bigger than even what we are expecting from him. `These are some of the few points I learnt from today's sermon in my church and I hope it blesses you.` Before I round up, I want to encourage us not to waste our waiting period, we are suppose to be very productive during this time, we are suppose to have achieved alot even before God answers us so that even when God now answers our prayer, we would have achieved alot that we help us in the journey of success. I pray God help us! Published date: 3rd of April, 2022 Published time: 13 : 59 pm (WAT) Author: oyinwrites ***Do not forget to subscribe if you haven't. Thank you and see you soon.***

Setting a new goal It's a new month already, what are you planning to do or achieve this new month? Are you going to do things just the way you have been doing them? Or are you planning on doing things differently from the way you have been doing them? Let me tell you a secret and you fall pray to this often, the reason why you don't feel energized to start a new month or you feel like a failure or feel depressed when starting a new month because you haven't achieved anything the previous months is because you either don't have a goal of you have a goal but you are not doing anything in order to achieve it. Saying "new month, new goals" whenever you start a new months without putting action into it is just a **wishful thinking and a vain talk.** I'm not saying you shouldn't be optimistic, you even need positivity in your journey to success but vain talks without action will just make you bachelor of optimism (if there's a sentence like that)😁. You have to do something about your goals, don't just keep using the month for the same purpose you have been using it, determine to make this month different from the other months and put action into it. *I attended an expertnaire last week and we were taught on "achieving your purpose". Some of the points that were mentioned has alot in common with this topic and I will be sharing few of the points mentioned and also share my own point of view too.* So let's consider some useful tips in order to make this month a prosperous one **Set an achievable goal** Start by setting a goal that you know that it is achievable. Set goals you have passion for, goals that you know you can go any length in order to achieve it, the goals that you know you can do anything in order to achieve it. Don't set a goal because your friend have the same goal, don't set a goal because you know that there's alot of money in it. It's good for your goal to bring plenty money but if you don't have passion for it, it will go down on the long run. **Gather information/gain knowledge** Gain knowledge about your set goal, attend seminars, take classes and lessons, ask questions, browse online, do some market surveys and so on... Don't just sit at your corner, leave your comfort zone to seek knowledge about your set goal. Ask questions from the people in the same line as that of your goal .. ask them about their success stories, how they started and how they are still running it. It's not compulsory you do yours the same ways they did theirs but you can make use of their own approach or skill. **Learn the required skill and be the best version of yourself in it** Learn the appropriate skill you need to learn in order to be the best in your set goal. Don't just learn a skill and stay like that, keep on adding knowledge on how to be the best and how to stand out amidst other people in line of your goal. There's a popular saying, it says "*whatsoever is worth doing at all is worth doing well*" it means you must give in your best into whatsoever you are doing, don't just do it for the same of the money in it or for the sake of doing it, do it because you are made for it. Excellence is a key to success. **Start** As small as the word "start" looks, trust me when I tell you it's the most difficult point out of the points mentioned above. It might look difficult to start but start anyways. Don't develop "***Neophobia***" the fear of trying out new things cos if you have that fear, I tell you to be successful in life will be difficult. Think about how to start but do not think too much, **analysis paralysis** happens when you overthink a goal until you don't even know where to start from so just start! You don't have to start big, just start according to the level of your capability but if you have the capacity to start big, start big as long as you have enough knowledge about your set goal. You might have a bigger picture of your goal in mind but you don't have the ability to make it as big as that now, not to worry, it's going to be just as you want it soon enough. **Measure your progress daily** Break every of your day into tasks, and give every hour an assignment, that way, you can actually measure progress when you check your to-do list and see if you've done quarter, half or even all of your tasks for the day and when you complete any of the tasks, tick it good or stroke it out on your list. Doing this will give you a sense of fulfilment as you see each task you were able to achieve and it will ultimately increase your productivity. **Don't focus on the goal** Don't focus on the Goal, instead focus on the journey, and how to make the most of the journey not the destination, the idea is to set goals so that you'll have a destination in mind, something that challenges you to keep moving not for you to keep thinking about where you should have gotten to by now. `So right now sit down, take a piece of paper & write down what you'll like to achieve this Month` Happy new month to you all 🙌 Published date: 1st of April, 2022 Published time: 9:42am (WAT) Author: © oyinwrites *Do not forget to subscribe if you haven't, thank you and see you soon.*

My parent ruined my dream wedding Since I was a child I have always dreamt of a nice Small wedding but a big night But one question I always ask Is can I ?? Knowing fully well the type Of parent I have Or should I just talk about My dad, a strong headed man? Or my mum, the real party life? They will never come in terms with A very small wedding Because all they ever want is A very big wedding which All their friends and relatives In far and near places Will contribute money And buy asoebi (family dress) And also have all types of meals To eat on the day of the wedding My parent have always been mean They have never allowed me Do anything the way I want it Everything must go the way they want it Though I am used to it! I am used to me Hiding in their shell since I was a kid I am used to me Living like a prisoner in My own community It all started since I was a kid Up until I became a teen Into being a youth It has always been the Mr and Mrs Dictating my life for me Like I'm some piece of garbage bin No decisions I make will Ever be good enough for me Only theirs will be' I pray God helps me! Finally, it was my wedding! Oops! I think I'm forgetting something Final conclusion about the wedding? Yes exactly! After so much pleading Was it still done small or big? Big is an understatement for my wedding It was super exceedingly big What were you expecting? For my parent to agree to my will? All the invited guest started arriving From all nooks and crannies Both within and outside the country The wedding hall was said to be A five thousand people capacity You can start to perceive Aroma of different kinds of meals The event ushers were all dressed accordingly The decorations were done perfectly And lights were blooming Seeing everyone dressed in teal green As this is the color code is heart warming Pop songs started playing So as to ginger the life of the party Everything looks so appealing Soon, the party started fully The groom and his family arrived Awaiting the bride to arrive Finally, I walked in majestically Everyone was astonished at the beauty What a beauty, what a beauty! This was whispered among the groom's relatives Everything looks so amazing Even though I never wanted to that big I still loved and appreciated it Here comes the moment we are expecting The couple was joined in holy matrimony Everyone shouted heavily "They are married already" My mum shouted heavily May you now kiss the bride The pastor told my husband Everywhere was soon filled with the noise from claps Suddenly, we heard a gun shot from outside Somebody suddenly shouted "everyone lie down" In a second, fear gripped people heart What is that "everyone whispered" A group of men hurriedly entered With guns and knives in their hands I started crying out loud We are kidnappers And we are here for the bride Said one of the gangs They dragged me away into their car And drove out of sight I was taken to an hidden house Far away from town I was given a phone to type my parent number I heard them making a call Demanding fifty million ransom It took 7 days for my parents to raise that So I had to stay 7 days in the house Because they had to sell their house They paid the ransom at last Just that it was already too late As I was already been raped for 5 consecutive times Considering the fact that I was a virgin before that time I was later released after my parent paid the ransom Oh my husband, he waited patiently for our wedding night Now tell me, how am I supposed to face my husband?😭😭 **Note that this rhymes are all fiction and it is born purely out of my imaginary thoughts.** Published date: 30th of March, 2022 Published time: 9:35am (WAT) Author: © oyinwrites ***Please do endeavor to subscribe of you haven't.
