Knowing when to leave
Knowing when to leave is very important !!!
Everyone know what's best for them and when to start or begin a new lifestyle, relationship, career or when to go to a party, but the hardest part there is when to leave .
Knowing when to leave is very important for your self respect and esteem , some people may think it's pride but No, you just have to learn how to focus on your self alone and leave a place where you are not needed.
The fact is that people won't know your worth or value until you are no longer with them and it's not their fault because you always seem to give them more of your time and attention than they deserve and they will make use of the opportunity to treat you are they like.
Come to think of it , why do you want to stay in a working place where you are not needed or when they treat you like a low life person just maybe because you don't match up to their standards . My bro and sis, working in a place where they treat you like a slave or their puppet which they can just order around anytime they want, is not the right place for you to work cause they will never know your worth and they will continue to treat you like that , so please stop wasting your precious time in a working place where you are not needed .
Not only in your work place , any where you find your self and you feel like you are losing your importance, just leave there.
This is a story that happened to a friend of mine
One of my female friend ( blessing) was in a relationship where she was not needed at all ,trust me it was like hell to her . There was never a single day that she would be happy.
She do call her bf thrice in a day and he would only answer the calls once or sometimes he won't at all , the guy do snub her msg and doesn't check up on her but that doesn't seem to bother the girl cause she was thinking that the guy would change his mind and finally have her attention.
It's got to a stage that the girl could no longer bear it any more and decided to leave the relationship but it didn't bother the guy at all cause he had no feelings for the girl.
It's was really hard for the girl to get over the boy and move on but as time passes by she got over him and decided not to be in a relationship again.
After two months of break up , the girl is now successful and financially independent on her . She got her self busy and focus more on her business in order for her to forget her past.
Through her post on social media , the guy who didn't have her time before found out that she is now successful on her business and decided to apologize back to her but she refused and told him that he was too late.
It's very important for you to know when to leave because it Maybe then your glory might shine and become successful in your endeavors. Wasting time on the wrong people is very bad cause it will cause delay or hindrance for you getting to your success.
Happy new month to you all and thanks for reading.
How I fell in love with my bestie ( part 3)
Hello everyone.
I have not been participating in this platform for a week now and am very sorry for that 😔, it's was just that I was occupied with all alot of things that's why.
As I was going through all my articles here, I found out that I didn't complete one of them which is how I fell in love with my bestie and I thought of completing it now . Please pardon me cause it's been a very long time since I wrote the part one and two , and am very sure most of you would have forgotten about the article so here is a review from the part two .
Ria gradually fell in love with kelvin without realizing it , so an horrible incident happened that made Ria realize the love she has for kelvin.......
Fast forward to part three
After kelvin recovered his memory , Ria and her parents threw a very big party to celebrate it and it was in that party Ria gathered some courage and expressed her feelings to kelvin Infront of everyone. Kelvin as surprised and shy at the beginning but he gathered his confidence and also expressed his feelings to her , everyone was very happy for the both of them caused they really know what the both of them went through just to be together.
Ria and kelvin dated each other for like a year before they both agreed to get married to each other. Kelvin went to seek for Ria's hand in marriage and her parents agreed caused they both love and treated kelvin as their son, but when kelvin went to show his parents in the village the girl he wanted to marry his mother refused and told him that she as already found a wife for him in the village and he must get married to her.
Ria was dumbfounded and chattered and she don't know what to do about it , kelvin tried to explain the love he has for Ria and how Ria took very good care of him when he had the accident but his mother was still not convinced that Ria could be a good wife for him so she refused . Everytime kelvin brought up the matter his mother would be like , No , she can't be a good wife for you, she is from the city so am very sure that she is spoilt and don't have respect and she would not be able to cook or even do the house chores properly.
After a lots of pleads and convincing by kelvin and his dad , kelvin mother finally agreed to the marriage but only if Ria can prove her self worthy to be his wife . Ria was very happy when her heard this , so she agreed to stay in the village for one month just to prove herself to his mother.
The one month begins, it was not easy for Ria cause she was used to village life , she would wake up very early in the morning around 3 or 4am to begin her chores , she would go to the stream to fetch water , wash all the dirty clothes , cook , sweep ,wash all the dishes and make sure everything was neat and placed in order, but this is not all .
When the first girl kelvin's mother chose for him heard about this , she became very angry and determined to ruin all Ria's plan . There was a day when Ria spent a lot of time and effort preparing egusi and eba for kelvin's parent but all her efforts was ruin and she received insults from kelvin's mother because the other girl went behind her back and added a lot of salt to the soup.
To cut the story short
After all the hardship Ria went through she was still able to prove herself to kelvin's mother and the wedding ceremony was done in a grand way and event was struck on people's mind.

Share your progress, not your goals
Share your progress !!!
This is the first day in the month of August, I hope this month brings alots of big bags , laughter and good memories to everyone. Happy new month to you all.
Share your progress , not your goals.
What do I mean by progress ?
According to https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/ progress is the process of gradually improving or getting nearer to achieving or completing something. https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/progress https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/improve https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/get https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/achieve
Progress is when is you Continue walking down a path, getting closer to your destination.
While goal is the act of stating clearly what you want to achieve.
Research have proven that the praises we receive when we share our goals in public becomes a substitute of us achieving them. That's why a lot of people talk about what they want to do and never end up doing it.
It has happened to me alot of times where by I would tell my friends that this week oo am planning to do this thing but by the end of the week I end up not doing it and I always wonder why ? And that's why I never announce my goals in public again but work silently behind the scene and share my progress later. Am sure it's has happened to some of you as well.
Am not saying that we shouldn't trust our friends oo , but am trying to say that we should limit what we tell our friends cause it's not everybody that laugh with you that is actually happy for you, some are just pretenders and deceivers.
Am patiently waiting for my first and new sponsor this month, please you all should not disappoint me 😢.
Back to my article.
When you track and share and progress , you keep yourself motivated, and the reason for tracking is to allow you see your evolution unfolding before your eyes and sharing your progress allows people praise you not on your results but on the process and steps you took before getting the results.
When you share your goals to the public then you are actually paving way for set backs and disappointment to come in , because you don't actually know what going through others mind , you don't know if they are all pretending to like and care you , so stop sharing your goals instead share your progress.
Remember this : your enemies may come to you disguised as friends to you just to know your goals and try to tarnish them , so be wise and careful my dear Cause you don't know the intentions of others towards you.
Sharing your progress keeps you motivated and inspire you to keep on going. It's helps you stay disciplined and helps you make better decisions.

Breakfast: the official national cake
Breakfast !!! Breakfast !!! Breakfast !!!
The word breakfast is not a new thing to any one now, mind you am not talking about early morning food oo, am talking about the national cake that everyone's gonna eat ( heartbreak) lol 😂.
Relationship has been taken as a joke in this era, you will see a girl and boy of 15,16,17,18 ..... Heartbroken. There are lots of play boys and girls out there all bent on breaking people's heart. Relationship is now a game that is played on people and it's either you lose or gain.
It's very hard to find true love nowadays because everyone's busy finding any means possible to make money. Most guys think that if they are broke or poor then no girl will love them and it's not their fault cause nowadays girls are not ready to work or go through any hardship to make their own money they only want to date rich guys. In this generation , love is all about sex and money ( that is you give me sex and I will give you money in return) some girls even stoops so low as to sell their body out just for money.
The biggest scam ever is falling deeply In love with someone, cause you will be taken for granted, the other partner will think that u are too clingy and obsessed. The other partner will think that your whole world revolves around them that without them you are nobody so they will absolutely take advantage of the love you have for them.
I know we all need someone that will love and care for us , that is willing to stand by us in whatever we are doing but it's such a pity that nobody is willing to do it Cause they are all scared of breakfast ( heart break).
I wish there were still men and women out there who love and care for each other without any motive or objectives behind it. I guess true love begins and ends with the love our parent has for each other.
The amazing three words ( I love you ) that is suppose to bring happiness,fun moments into someone's life has now turn to something else. When a boy tells a girl that he loves her, before it's was taken seriously but now it's a joke , it's just like the boy is saying I want to have sex with you.
The true fact about this breakfast is that it's gonna reach everybody either sooner or later, whether you like it or not it's gonna reach you.
My advice to those that has not falling In love is that please don't fall in love cause if you do the chances of you having to served breakfast ( heartbreak) is very high. I would advice everyone not to think of love now, but think of how to make to life better , how to make a better living and make your parents proud of you, instead of you wasting your time loving someone who is not ready to reciprocate the love back.
Love and relationship are scam , please don't waste your time in a relationship where you are not needed or where you feel like your partner is not giving enough attention you need.
One thing I like about this breakfast is that once you are heartbroken , you will learn to take good care of your self , you will learn your lesson of not loving someone deeply, you will start to regret and wish that you should not have done somethings . And most importantly it will teach you not to make the same mistake when you in another relationship.

An uneasy journey
An uneasy journey !!!
After I was done with all my chores, I decided to visit read.cash a little bit only to find out that am already a two months user on this amazing platform, I was very excited and started recalling all my experiences on this platform.
Being a two months user on this awesome platform was not an easy one , I guess am not the only one who has been through alot on this platform but am still grateful that am a member of this platform.
One of my awful moment or experience was when the Random Rewarder no longer visit me 😭, I guess am not the only one it happened too but I still didn't lose hope and kept trying and I was sure it's was because of the fall in BCH that's why he didn't visit me often.
There were times when I would be demotivated to write but I still have to find any means possible to motivate myself again, it's wasn't easy but I tried.
One of the greatest thing I learnt from this platform is never to lose hope on this platform or feel less determined no matter what's going on.
There are times when I would be tired and don't know what to write about then I would just go through others articles because this platform mainly deals with interaction, so we all need to be interactive on this platform.
Since when I joined this platform It was so easy for me to share my opinions , ideas and discover new things on it.
I just want to thank you all for your kind support and comments on my article especially @Wrinkle @Ayane-chan @janejane @TheGuy @Bisolammy
Thanks for reading.
Can this be true love ??
Good day everyone, how's your weekend going.
I just thought of writing this article after a friend of mine told me about her relationship issues and I would like to hear you guys opinions on this. Thanks.
My friend and her boyfriend have been dating over three months now and she still doesn't feel like the guy loves her.
Most times I went to visit her, I always found her crying or lonely then I would ask her what's the reason and she keeps telling me the same thing that it is about her bf.
She told me that during the first one and half month that the guy always chat with her, they would call their self three times a day , the guy always make sure she is safe and happy, and there's no single time that the guy is online that he won't chat or message her.
As time goes on , little by little, day by day , the girl fell deeply in love with the guy and she have picture themselves together, but now the guy no longer have time for her , he can stay a whole day without chatting or calling her , the girl usually complain to the boy that she does not like the way he is not giving her any attention again, but the guy would tell her that he is always busy and she should try to endure or understand him.
The guy doesn't care about the girl emotions again ( whether she is sad, happy, crying, lonely, etc) he would always wait for the girl to chat him up first and even if the girl did it , he will still snub or ignore her message.
My friend is always Heartbroken and depressed nowadays .
There are some words she do tell me that makes me emotional also and they are :
Am I not enough for him ?
I love him with all my heart but he is treating me like I mean nothing to him
I don't think I will ever love anyone like the way I love him
Is there another girl in his life ?
If he doesn't love me anymore then he should let me know
I only need his care and attention is that too much to ask of ?
I wish I have someone who loves me.
I do tell her that if she is not happy in the relationship then she should break it , but she would tell me that she still love him and she don't want to lose him. Then I would tell her to give the boy so time or space and she should take care of herself but she would tell me that she is scared to lose him.
Pls, do you all think the guy still love the girl and she should continue with the relationship ? Please, I need you guys advice on this ...... Thanks for reading.
Your habit defines you
Your habit defines you !!!
Habit is what you are used to and can't stay a day without doing it ( what you are addicted to ).
If you are have bad habits ( or neglected the good ones ), you will break little by little, day by day , if you practice good habits , you will build yourself up little by little, day by day.
There's a saying that says what you do today is a reflection of what you will become tomorrow, yes it's very true, let's get this for instance if a little child likes singing or drumming then there's a possibility that he would become a musician or a drummer, if he likes drawing then he would become an artist. Whatever you are used to doing either good or bad it's will surely have an effect on your life. Let's all stop all our bad habits.
There's a thin line between your today and your tomorrow, the thing that connects the two together is the habit you repeat every day, every little thing we do today has a consequence on our tomorrow, why don't you stop doing all those bag things so that it's won't have a stigma on your tomorrow .
Want to know where you will be in a year time ? Look at what you are doing now, want to become a musician? Well have start building up your music career ?, Want to become a teacher ? Have u seen any sign in you becoming a teacher, want to be a writer ? Have u started writing. Whatever you inspired to become your habits decides that for you, because you can't say you want to become a doctor and you become sacred when you come in contact with blood and you sing every day.
Whenever a little child comes up to me and tells me what he would like to become in future then I only ask them one question which is " has these become your daily habits ? If yes, then there's a possibility that you will become that ,but if no , then you are only wasting your time dreaming and thinking you will become that. After this, I would give them a little words of encouragement to build their confidence and determination.
What ever you want to become, those daily habits and rituals, stick to them and strive harder because breakthrough don't happen overnight.

The most timeless and priceless form of therapy
The most timeless and priceless form of therapy is journaling.
Journaling is the act of reflecting and thinking about some certain aspect of your life and writing them down. It's saves you from stress about thinking or remembering things with great difficulty.
Some people find it difficult to jot down some things which is very bad.
Journaling is the most priceless form of therapy because it's makes you know more about your self (self awareness) and make you have a better understanding of yourself. Most people find it's difficult to understand their feelings and emotion or even to their talent because they are too busy doing other things instead of them to make time for their self and journal.
Journaling helps you to set out your goals and objectives in life. It's helps you to know the step you should take in whatever you are doing because you have already written your aims and objectives down and how you plan to carry it out, so there's no need for you to start thinking or stressing yourself on what step you should take when you've reach some certain stage in life.
You will have a better sense of life when you journal because everything would be in place and in orderliness, even other people will envy your lifestyle and wish to be like you. You would become some people role model and they would start to use you as a good example for their children.
People journal mainly for three things.
They write to understand their self better, some people find it difficult to explore their self and know their true character, so true journaling they get to explore and understand their self better.
They write to think better, yes people write to have more knowledge about something and to improve their mental balance, they also write to study more about others behavior and how to adapt with them.
They write to make sense of life, yeah people want everything about them to look nice and decent so they take to journaling their daily schedule.
Journaling helps to keep important records about your life.

Greatest pain of a mother
Good day everyone, I have not been participating on this platform for a while and am Sorry for that, well it was because I was very busy. I just thought of writing this article and I hope you all will like it.
The greatest pain of a mother.
All mothers are special being and they have an everlasting love for their children. No one on earth can ever take the place of a mum in a child life. Mother's have alot of responsibility towards their husband, children ,family , society and even the whole nation.
A mother's love is true and unconditional, no one can ever love you more than your mum.
Before I go further I would like to ask all of us some questions and I will be expecting your reply In the comment section.
How much love do u have for your mother?
Do you think you can make it in life without the help and prayers of your mum ?
Is your mum your first priority in life ?
What do you think of does people who made it in life and neglected their mother to suffer alone ?
Can you ever repay your mum for all the attention,prayers,care she showed to you ?
Without mothers do you think there would be development, love and peace in this world ?
Mother's go through a lot of pain just to ensure and satisfy the needs of their children.
The responsibility of being of a mother started from a young female child. A girl child is taught alot of things like : how to manage the house chores, take care of the home ,how to cook , how to be generous,and how to adapt with different people and their behavior.
The desire of being a woman or mother start from when a Young female child is given a doll to take care of it. There's no girl in this world that does not want to be a mother.
We girls love to be a mother but do we know the challenges our mothers have to take on for us.
When a woman is pregnant she is filled with joy and lots of fancy things to do with the child and she is hoping and looking forward to God for the safe delivery. The pain of losing a child is very disastrous to the mother because not only her dreams will be chartered but the dreams of her husband and her family members would also be. Mothers would prefer themselves die and the child alive than them being alive and the child dead.
After the birth of the child, they look after and take care of the child very well, they always treat their children like egg.
They care take of the children from birth till when they are grown up, even as the children are grown up their love for them as not change , they would always be ready to make sacrifices for their children just for them to make it in life, they are always awake during mid night to pray for the well being of their children, they have done a lot of fastings and prayers for them.
Am still wondering how does people who made it in life neglect their mothers to suffer alone, forgetting all the sacrifices, challenges, prayers ,tears, the days their mother went on food strike just to make sure the food available that time was enough to satisfy them.
Please let's make our mother our first priority in life. That woman has been through alot just for your sake. Even if we have nothing now or struggling or maybe things are hard or falling apart or things are not going according to plans , please, don't give up for the sake of your mother, let's promise our selves that no matter what happens we will make our mothers hard work pay off and make them proud of us.
Thanks for reading.
What if u knew today was your last day to live
Have you ever been asked " if today was your last day alive what will you regret" ?.
Nobody like to think that they are going to die, but it is inevitable. But the strange part is that it's not death that is the main issue of our fear, but it's because we have regrets, things we wish we did or didn't do. Like spending more time with our loved ones, setting up businesses and goals, becoming successful , pursuing our Career or dreams.
But do you know what really cause this things?
It is caused by procrastination. We all procrastinate every time infact it's has now been a part In human.
Procrastination is very deadly and can cost us alots, we need to stop this act. Procrastination is caused by laziness and ignorance, when you are suppose to do something that's when you will realize that you want to sleep ,rest or do another thing hereby neglecting what you are suppose to do.
There is a saying that says " who broke go rich, who fail go win but na who die go lose hope", yes, this saying is very true because as far as there is life then there is hope. What the essence of being alive when you are not making good use of this opportunity given to you. Why waste the time you have now to do good things and be successful. Please let's make good use of our time now so that we won't have regrets when we are dead.
My father once told me that :" if you ever get tired in what ever you are doing learn to rest for a while but never quit because there will be a time when things will not be going according to your plan or when things are jacked up then you just need to rest a little bit and try again". I kept this in my heart and I always remember his words any time am down.
Let's always remember that the race of life started from birth and it's will end the day we are dead whether we like it or not, so will need to plan our life very well, so that we won't regret a thing when we are gone.

Failure and adversity are the greatest teacher
As we go through different faces in life we may tend to relent or give up because Maybe things are not going according to our plan.
According to https://www.yourdictionary.com/failure it's define Failure as the state or Condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective .
Failure is a face in life which every one must pass through whether we like it or not. Failure is not design to make us feel rejected or lost but it is design to make us upright, to keep us going and letting us try harder. There is no great men or women that hasn't fail in one or two things he/she has done but the determination to strive harder made them become what they are now.
We all need to know that failure gives you experience and teaches you how not to do things so that the net worth will be good. Without experience we tend to make lots of mistakes which may be disastrous to our success, but thanks to failure we are given the opportunity to experience some useful things which will guide us through the right path.
Through failure we learn how to correct our previous mistake so we will not fall victim of it again. I would like to advice you that if you seems to be failing in whatever you are doing you shouldn't lose hope but you should try to find out what is making you fail and learn from it so that when next you try to do something similar to it you will not make the same mistakes.
Adversity are obstacles or distraction hindering you from reaching or getting to your goals.
In life, it's normal for adversity (obstacles) to come our way, it's now depends on how we face and deal with it. There are some obstacles that seems to be getting better of us or making us weak.
Big things in life comes with great adversity and great efforts, there is nothing too big or small to achieve that adversity will not visit us even if it's a little bit. Adversity builds our strength and confidence on how we are able to withstand all hardship in life.
Adversity are not there to keep you out but to give you a chase to build up your strength. It is through adversity that we learn how to value the things we have and how precious they are to us because we wouldn't want to lose what we worked so hard to get.
It is also through adversity we know our true friends and people who are willing to go through all hurdles and stand by us. Many of us think that the person who we share our happy moments with and share we everything with are always our one and true friend, but that's not true. It's only the person who is willing to stand by us through our difficult situation and is ready to render their assistance, that's when we know our one and true friend.
Failure and adversity works hand in hand together and they are very important to us even if they seems bad and nobody wish to be in it, but look at the bright side of it and you will find out that they are special and unique in there different ways and they are the greatest teacher everyone has to learn the most important lesson from.
Thank you all for reading.
The act of giving
Happy new month guys, I hope this new month brings joy and success to all of us . I just thought of writing this article to illustrate more on "giving".
What do we mean by "giving" or what do we understand by the "giving" ? When we hear of the word "giving" am sure that the first thing that comes to our mind is "give".
Yeah, Give is to let someone have something as a present,or provide something for someone while Giving is the process by which we make it possible for someone to have something.
Giving is one of the greatest form of humanity, we all need to exhibit this trait so as to enable us to also receive rewards from God. It's such a pity that not everyone has the heart of giving which is very important. Come to think of it, if we are always receiving things from other people then it will give them the impression that you are depending on them and it's sometimes affect our self esteem.
Things that can be given to people:
There are so many things we can give to people, most of us thing that money is the best gift we can give to others, But No, there are still alots of things we can give out to people and that can be really useful to them more than money.
One of the best and greatest gift we can give to others is "Gospel" ( that is the teaching of the life of Christ). We can really save alots of people through preaching.
Time: when we are in a moody situation or really missing someone we tend to crave for their time and attention, it's really important for us to spare some time out of our busy schedule for our loved ones , cause it's really helps In making the bond between them stronger.
Wisdom /advice or counseling: it is the act of impacting one's knowledge on another person. Like for instance , we might be in a difficult situation where we feel like giving up or losing hope then we just need someone to guide us through.
Resources: are like money,clothes, shoes,shelter and other tangible things. These are alms we give to people to financially or physically assist them and it's the most common type of giving.
Key facts about giving
According to Act 20 vs 35, Jesus said ' I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember, the word of the lord Jesus, how he said, it is more blessed to give than to receive'.
For with the same measure that you give to those that's how it will be measured back to you.
Giving should be done with the right motive and with a clean and good heart.
No one have ever become poor by giving.
The hand of a giver is always on top while the hand of a receiver is always and will ever be below of the giver. So it's better to be a giver than a receiver.
A small gift is better than a big promise.
There's a curse attached to those who have but don't give proverb 28:27 ( and it's says he that giveth unto the poor shall not lack, but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse placed on his head).
Please we should all learn how to give even if it's a little.

Beauty in our culture
As we all know, Nigeria is a very big and over populated country, it's has lots of ethnic groups and these groups have their own different cultures and lifestyles.the three most common ethnic groups is the Yoruba,igbo and hausa.
Before I moved further I will like to explain the keyword "culture". Culture is the total way of life of people as we all have been taught in our primary schools.
Culture is not only the way of life but it is also the lifestyles. From their appearance that is ( mode of dressing or their looks) to the language, foods ,dance types and also the customs and traditions, all these are very unique.
We can differentiate different tribes from each other.
The culture and traditions of the Yorubas is quite different from the igbo and the hausa. There are some things that are forbidden to them while it's may be counted as a minor issue to the rest ethnic groups. You can easily identify a Yoruba woman through her dressing and the language she speaks. And to me Yoruba is still the easiest language to learn faster than the other tribes language. If you are mostly surrounded with Yoruba people then it is very easy and likely for u to understand their language.
The Igbos traditions are also very different from the Yoruba,and it's seems they mostly deal with clothes and shoe businesses. The hausa their own way of life is completely different and kind of unique.
Most people don't see the beauty in culture because they mostly criticize others tribes. Have u tasted Nigeria delicacy....uhm trust me Nigeria has lots of foods and they are very yummy. Am not talking about our normal foods like jollof rices,fried rice, sausages,pizza etc... Am taking about our native foods from vegetables to ewedu to gbegiri to oha soup to Banga soup and to tuwo and so on, wow , trust me Nigerians food is one of the best food in the world.
Now to the mode of dressing and dancing steps.
Every tribes have their own different attires which makes our culture so unique that we are able to different a Yoruba woman from a Tiv woman or an Igbo woman from an Ijaw woman.
Have u ever watch or witnessed any of Nigerians festival. OMG you are really missing alots because through the festivals u are learn more about their culture and also get a chance to watch them perform some entertainment like dancing, acting of dramas etc
Language
All this tribes also have their various languages and they are different from each other. We will need to spend more time with people so as to understand their language. We may think that learning others language is a waste of time of No, it's will help us sooner or later. Let's remember that no knowledge is a waste. Their way of greeting and showing respect will also be different because their custom is different from each other.
Nigeria have both inner and outer beauty, everything around and about us is beautiful. We need to stop tribalism and discriminating each other , we are all one and we need to learn how to tolerate and adapt with each other . We need to cooperate and work together in unity in other to make Nigeria a better place for all of us.

Plan to fail
I could not think of what to write until a thought came into my mind that I should write on how I mess up my day because I failed to plan it well .
There are certain things we need to place in other so that it won't get the worst of us. We should at least make a daily routine or schedule for all our activities so that we won't miss any important one.
There is an adage which says :"when u fail to plan then u plan to fail" this adage is true because if we don't make a routine for all our work and manage our Time well then we are bow to fail, because at the end of the day we will end up having regret of forgetting to do something very important .
And I think I can relate to it because I kind of experience it today and trust me my day was a total mess up and I thought of Sharing my experience with you guys.
I woke at the wrong side of the bed because I was just angry for no reason which made a bad start.
After waking up I headed straight to greet my parents after that I went to take my bath in the bathroom, when I was done I could not think of cloth to wear and I had to dress well because am going out with my friends. After all the searching I finally figure out what to wear and I got all dressed up, the next step was to eat.
I went straight to the kitchen to eat my food but I could not find any food there, I was very angry and went to ask my mom that y have she not prepare the food. She told me that she was not feeling to well and I should help her cook the food. At first I was kind of frustrated because I had to meet my friends by 12pm in the afternoon and it was already 11: oo, I managed to make a simple food for my mom which was bread,tea and egg.
As I was about to leave, my mom called me back and told me not to forget what she asked me to buy and I assured her that I will remember.
I quickly rush outside hoping to see a vehicle on time buh that was not the case.
After all that , I finally met my friends and we were having fun not too long I got a call from my long distant friend, she called to ask if I was still coming to visit her today and I told her that I totally forgot that I will visit her another day. She was very sad and angry because I have always been telling her I would visit her but I won't. I managed to calm her down and reassured her that I will come tomorrow.
On my way home, I got a call from a delivery girl who told me to meet her somewhere where I would collect the cloth I ordered from her, I was angry because I was already half_way home and I have to go back to collect my cloth.
Fast forward to when I got home
I went to check my mom in her room that was when she asked me about the medicine she asked me to buy. I was very disappointed and tired because I had assured her that I would buy it for her .
I had to go to the nearest pharmacy to get the drugs for her because I don't want her health to worsen.
Things sometimes may come expectedly but if I had schedule my time very well I would not be as tired as that or even frustrated.
Making plans must always be our priority because it's one of the biggest aspect in our life. We should all learn to manage our Time well and plan or schedule our daily activities.
Thank you all for patiently reading .
Young Orphans
It's been a while since I wrote an article, and this evening as I was thinking of which article to write then this topic just pop up my mind and I think it will be a good idea to write on it.
*orphan* is someone who has lost both parents. Usually, we think of sad little children when we think of *orphans*, but anyone whose parents have both died is an *orphan*. From https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/orphan definition
Truly, it is very painful to lose ones parents because they are like our shield and second God on earth. Let us na imagine the more pain we will feel if any of us had lose our parents at a very tender age. U can see that it's would be terrible that's the same way the young orphans are also feeling.
It will be very hard for them to survive in this wicked world where people don't have sympathy for one another again.
Some orphans are lucky, after the death of there parents one of their relative may decide to accommodate and train the child. Some will be taken to the orphanage home where they would be maltreated both from the house keeper and his mates. What about those who are not lucky at all , at least these ones still have a place to call their home but this unfortunate ones don't have,they will wander about begging for alms just to feed their hunger and taste, they don't have where to sleep but they are still satisfied with wat they have.
We should all help in stoping the suffering of young orphans who are helpless in the street, come to imagine after the pain these children pass through by losing their parents and the challenges they are facing , some heartless people will still kidnap,rape,harass,sell,kill or even use them for rituals without even having a second thought of wat will happen to them.
No one ever wish to become an orphan at a very little age but circumstances and nature caused it. So instead of us using eyes to belittle them or even criticise them, y don't we join hands together and make this world a better place for them to live in.
Friendship
Friendship is the state or conduct of being friends with someone. We can make friends with anyone but we need to be mindful in choosing friends.
Friends can either be two or more people who spend time,Share their feelings and go through both good and bad time together.
There are different types of friends:
1. Acquaintance friends:
This is the first type or stage of being friends. This stage is when two people are just meeting for the first time and they wish to know more about each other .
2. Close friends:
This when both of them have started knowing more about each other and they are becoming very close to each other. In this type of friendship they may decide to become best friends or they will part ways and no longer become friends.
3. Best friends:
This one when they are very close to each other that even other people have started noticing them. They are sometimes called "besties", they will love each other dearly and start to share things with each other. This type of friendship is very good and some people may even start to envy them.
4. Good friends :
This type of friendship is very similar to best friends and it is an amazing one. This type is when you will have someone who cares for u and will always be there for u. Whenever one of them is sad they will always try to cheer each other up and when one is happy they will always add to the happiness. This is a friend who will always stand by u in times of ur sorrows and need or whenever you are down . One with such type of should never lose it but hold it close to one's self. This is a friend who is willing to go through thick and thin with u and will never leave u in ur time of difficulties.
There lot of experiences in this type of friendship. They will always fight with each other but the fight will not last up to a day . they can never do without checking up on each other, if they can't visit each other they would text or call each other.
5. Bad friends:
This type of friend will always lead u in the wrong part and they are never trust worthy. They will always leave u in ur times of difficulties and sorrows. They will never be there whenever u need them . This friend will only notice u when u are rich or when they need something from u. They will always decieve u and never give u good advices.
6. Childhood friends :
These are friends from when u are still till u grow up . Some of them are through friends while someone are bad friends. These friends will always share in ur good times and sometimes ur bad times. These friends will always remain a part of ur childhood memories. Some of them will last for long while some will last for a period of time.
There are still alots and different types of friends but I will stop here for now.
Life
Life,
Life is like a book in every page we need to live it to the fullest and make good use of it.
Life gives opportunity to every single soul on earth but sometimes we don't recognize it and the opportunity will be lost. And there is an adage that says : " once an opportunity is lost it can never be regain" so I would advice u guys to always make good use of the opportunity given to u by life.
We experience lots of things in life some are good while some are bad.
Whenever we are facing a difficult situation, most of us lose faith and hope which is not suppose to be so , we all need to know that for every problem we are face in life there is always a solution so we should never give up on our goals.
Someone once said that life is like a bed of rose it is true but we need to work hard for us to be able to enjoy the free gift of life.
There are so many obstacles in life,most people think that the obstacles are caused by our enemy which is the half truth,but sometimes they are caused by nature, friends, family and people that are very close to us . It is not everybody that laugh with u that is ur true friend,some people with rejoice with u in ur good times but not knowing that they are actually planning ur downfall.
In life we need to understand this logic that: the friend of ur friend is ur friend
While the enemy of ur enemy is ur friends.
Life is meant to be enjoyed
In life, when everything seems to be going astray u don't need to give up, u just need to put more effort and pray to God . U also need to know that there is no great man or woman out there who haven't passed through difficult time and situation . So if u are going through a difficult time now or u are in a difficult situation please don't give up u just need to be more determined and to push with great effort and confidence.
When I say the word push it's doesn't mean that u have to push physically but u need to Pray Until Something Happen (push).
We also need to know that every single one of us is born into this world for a purpose and we all need to fulfill that purpose that God wants for us in our life .
When things are not going according to ur plan. pls don't think that u are a failure because no one is a failure until he/she stop trying to succeed and admit to being a failure . And this is one of the challenges we pass through in life.
We all need to understand that life is a game that we are allowed to make our own rules and play it the way we want. But no Matter how we play it we should always put it in the back of our mind that the goal is to make heaven. Anyone who loses focus make not reach the goal.
Life teaches us a lot of things that we to understand . Like the law of Karma, ......., We are know that the law of karma states that what goes around must surely come around . Well, this is letting us know that what ever we do to our fellow human being we surely come back to us . So we need to love one another and also me our brothers keeper. We should not have any bad intentions against our fellow human being because wat ever we do to others another person will do the same thing back to us just as the law of karma states .
In any situation we find our selves we should always know that it is just a face in life which one must pass through and that better days are ahead of us .
Life is one of the precious and beautiful things we don't have because as far as there is life then there is still hope for u , no need to give up because of wat people think or are saying about u , every body in this world have there special purpose or task to accomplish. It is only the dead that do lose hope because they don't have life,many people have died without fulfilling their dreams and they still wish that God should give them a second chance to fulfill it. Many plans and dreams have been destroyed because of death,and losing hope but if u are alive then there is no need for u to be disturbed because life gives all of us a second chance to learn from our mistakes.
So every day Is a blessing from God and we should always make use of the chances life gives us to amend our mistakes.

How I fell in love with my bestie (part 2)
Hey guys,
Here is the part 2 of this interesting story of Ria and kelvin.
As Ria and kelvin became best of friends, Ria started sharing her feelings with kelvin and she feel more comfortable being with him, this gave Ria's parent a ray of hope and they were very happy that they have finally see someone who is helping Ria to live life to the fullest.
Ria and kelvin made it a daily routine for them to visit some many places like : the park, shopping mall,beach and so on , but their favorite place was the Park because they were able to have some privacy where they can sit and chat all day long and also watch some children playing and sometimes they do join the children in playing.
People have started noticing the changes in Ria behavior both in her place of work and her neighbors. They were very happy and pleased with it , some were even surprised that they started saying that: "who can believe that Ria can be such a jovial and lovely girl".
Ria never knew that she had fallen in love with kelvin until an unfaithful incident happened.
One day, on their way coming back from the park a motorcyclist who had his lost brake mistakenly hit kelvin with full speed, and he fell on the floor with blood gushing out of his body . At first Ria was confused on what to do and the fear of losing kelvin struck her mind. Ria quickly called the ambulance but it was taking a lot of time for them to reach the place, so Ria quickly stop a car and she begged the driver to help her get kelvin to the hospital.
On getting to the hospital, the nurse quickly carried kelvin on a stretcher and took him to the ICU unit,where the doctor was going to operate on him. Ria was asked to pay an huge amount of money for the operation but that didn't border Ria because her family is very rich.
Before the doctor started the operation he told Ria that kelvin life is in a lot of danger and he is not sure that he would be able to save his life , Ria was heartbroken and frightened by this, so she started praying and hoping for God to heal kelvin. Ria was so restless that she could not calm herself down because the thought of her losing kelvin was ringing in her mind.
The operation was done and the doctor came out to give Ria the amazing and shocking news. Ria could not wait to the doctor to utter a word before she loaded him with a lot of questions like : how is he doing now ? , Is he out of danger now ? , Has he regain consciousness ? ...... The doctor had to wait until she was done talking before he could answer her question. The doctor started, by saying that : kelvin is alive and he is out of danger ..... Before the doctor could continue wat he was saying, Ria had started jumping up and rejoicing but as soon as she heard am very sorry kelvin have lost his memory due to do severe injury cos by the accident and it will take long for him to regain his memory. It was as if Ria world was crashing down and was coming to an end . Ria started crying but the doctor told her not to give up that she would just have to keep reminding kelvin about all the fun things them have done together and they need to relive those moments and she need to be giving him his medication all the time .
She was determined to help kelvin regain his memory so she took kelvin to there house to live with them so that she would be able to take good care of him. She started taking kelvin to the places they visited before and she started reminding him of the fun things they did together.
As Time goes on little by little , kelvin started regaining his memory gradually and this made Ria very happy that all her effort were not wasted.
It took kelvin 6 months for him to finally regain his memory and when he did Ria and her parent threw a big party to celebrate it.
Could this be all the twist in this interesting story ?? Find out more on wat happened to Ria and kelvin in the upcoming part 3

How I fell in love with my bestie
This is a very interesting story of a boy and a girl who fell in love with each other.
There was a girl called Ria who was a stoned hearted girl, Ria hated the word "love" because she believed that love gives nothing but pain.
On the other hand was a boy ( kelvin) who was very eager to find a person he truly love, kelvin is always interested on love topics. So he began the quest to find his true love .
One day , kelvin was on social media adding up friends,so he saw a picture of Ria and he was quite interested on knowing more about her so he added her up.
Ria by mistakenly accepted kelvin friend request . So they started chatting each other, Ria got angry with kelvin because he was asking her alot of question which made them have a bad start. Here was their conversation :
Kelvin : hi, wassup
Ria : am good and you
Kelvin : same. I would like to know more about u, so can u kindly tell me ur name.
Ria: am Ria and u
Kelvin : wow what a nice name
Am kelvin.
Ria : ok
Kelvin: so are u in relationship
Ria: no
Kelvin : y
Ria : am not interested in any relationship
Kelvin : y
Ria : nothing
Kelvin : pls, tell me the reason
Ria : it's personal
Kelvin : pls, just tell me a little bit if not all of them.
Ria : pls am not in the mood to talk about that
Kelvin : pls 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ria : see u are disturbing me , have told u that it is personal reason, so what's there for u to know again or do u want to know my life history.
Kelvin : am sorry, I just want to know wat can make a beautiful girl like u lose interest in relationship that's all
Ria : sorry for ur self , see don't piss me off oo , just let me be
Kelvin : oh my bad 😔, am sorry for disturbing u, pls don't get mad at me .
Ria : ok, bye
Since this day henceforth kelvin was determined to know the reason and maybe he would be able to change her mind about relationship. But this was not an easy task for him to accomplish because Ria was a kind of girl that does not like to make friends with people or express her feelings with other people .
Even Ria's parent have tried their best to make Ria associate with people but all their effort yielded no avail. They thought that what was the point of them wasting their effort in making their child communicate with other people when Ria is not also free with them. They have also had several family meeting talking to Ria about making friends with her mates but they were just wasting their time and effort. To Ria making friends was like giving ur enemy a chance to attack u or inviting ur downfall with open hands.
Ria never see the need of her sharing her feelings to people because she thinks that they would not understand her or they would use it as a weapon to attack her back. So she lived a lonely life with nobody to share her happiness and sorrows with.
Kelvin did all his best he could to make her live life to the fullest but Ria was just getting worse . At times he would be heartbroken because he was not seeing any chance of Ria getting better, but he was very determined.
Kelvin tried all his best until he finally know Ria house address and phone number . So he made it a daily routine for him to always call on check on Ria. At times he would visit her and both of them would be talking to each other.
As day passed by, gradually gradually Ria got use to kelvin and they became friends .
But this was not the end of this interesting story because there would be an upcoming twist.
Pls like and comment to get the part 2 of this exciting story ... Thanks for reading
