There is a time for hope and a time for acceptance
The journey of life ends in two ways, **SUCCESS** and **FAILURE**. Often time I hear on the radio, television and even from the books we read online and in hard copies where some writers claim that the power to success and failure are all in your hands to decide and when you check what happens in the reality of life where you and I exist on, you will understand that it is a different thing all together. Most of the successes we have achieved in life is not through our effort and the decisions we made during the day, it didn't come because of the steps we took and all the proper plans we had before achieving the success.
Even the failures you may have experienced in the journey of life did not just happen only because of the wrong choices and decisions you made during the time you were struggling to achieve success. Sometimes we forget that the power of success and failure lies in the hands of that supreme being who created us and allowed us to exist as human on earth. Yes I might be sounding awkward with this my explanation but the mean truth in all these is that, the thought and believe we put on these human believe and ideology that the power to succeed and failure in life are all in our hands to decide are all wrong and must not be accepted any longer.
Well my good friends reading this right now, I will prove this point of mine with this little Information I will be dropping here.
According to the word of God in the holy bible, God said, that all power belongs to him, and all the power and knowledge to make wealth are all in his hands to decide. He went further to Let us know that his rain of blessing falls on both the good and the bad, in otherwords, he is the one who decides who gets his blessing of success and failure. So therefore, whether you believe it or not, God the creator of all beings is the one who blesses and at the same time he is the one who curses.
I don't want to sound religious right now but the main point we have to take at heart is this, whether you struggle from morning till the next day, whether you start from 1st day of january of every year till the last day of the month of December to hustle and work hard, if your time of blessing is not due for you to be blessed, you will continue to toil and nothing to show for it.
With this little explanation of mine about success and failure, I will go back to my topic for discussion which captions; There is a time for hope and a time for acceptance. Having gotten the idea about who has the power of success and failure, its also important that you know how to manage these two key words to every result you receive when you are on the journey of waiting for God's release of blessing to your doorstep and these words are **HOPE** and **ACCEPTANCE**.
****WHAT IS HOPE?****
According to Oxford language dictionary, it defines hope as a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen. And for you to have this particular feeling, there must be an activity going on in your life which your hope is relied upon for an answer. You can not expect a particular thing to happen when you are not doing anything to actually help your expectations to come to materialisation.
You may have in mind to set a project and after going through and making all necessary plans, setting all the underground works to make your project work and hoping that it will go well but at the end of the whole thing you will be disappointed that your plans didn't work as you planned. Now would you be seen as someone who didn't do well to plan properly? Or would you be blamed for not putting all efforts to achieve success? These things happen every day of our lives where you get disappointed and fail even when you plan so well and worked very hard to achieve success. But the most important thing is to never to give up on hope when you still have another opportunity to revisit your failed plans, get it fixed up and try again with the hope that this time around God will make it successful for you.
Now you see, to achieve success is not really in your hands to decide but rather in him that knows when to make it happen. It's really bigger than man comprehension and understanding.
****WHAT IS ACCEPTANCE?****
Also according to Oxford language dictionary, it defines acceptance as the action of consenting to receive or undertake something offered. Yes this particular aspect is seen as moment where you have to receive whatever be the result first and then try to take record of what could be the reason for success or failure. It's so important to have this mindset of acknowledging whatever that comes to you in the journey of life in good faith, then try going through it to observe why it happened that way, if it's something to give another try you can try one more time but if it's not something you can't give another try, you can decide to accept it in good fate and rest.
One will always say, "I have hope and believe that one day I will get to the promise land. And after a long period of waiting, praying and striving so hard to get to that promised land one wished for, one still end up not getting to the final destination of whatever desire he or she has prayed for and waited for. Right there you give up and accept the outcome, or you give it another try and keep your hope alive for another better day in future.

Not again!
A little over six years ago, Nigerians said their president was corrupt, inept and a weakling and thus rejected him. According to bible; When Samuel became old he made his sons Judges over Israel, the name of his first son was Joel, the name of his second son Abijah, they were judges in Besheba. Yet his sons did not follow in his ways, yet turned aside after gain, they took bribe and injustice.
Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah and said to him, you are old and your sons do not follow in your ways, appoint for us, then, a king to govern us, like other nations. But the thing displeased Samuel when they said "give us a king to govern us", Samuel prayed to the lord and the lord said to Samuel; " listen to the voice of the people and all that they said to you, for that they have not rejected you but for they have rejected me for being king over them."
Just as they have done to me from the day I brought them up out of Egypt, forsaking me and serving other gods, so also they are doing to you, now listen to their voice; only, you shall solemnly warn them and show them the ways of the king who shall reign over them.
A few elders warn the Nigerian people about the consequences of their actions but they insisted on having their way. So Samuel reported all the words of the lord to the people who were asking him for a king, they said this will be the ways of the king who will reign over you;
***He will take away your sons and appoint them to his chariots and to run before his chariots and he will appoint for himself commander of thousands and commander of fifties, and some to plough his ground and rip his harvest and to make his implements of war and the equipment of his chariots.***
***He will take your daughters to perfumers, cooks and bakers, he will take the best of your fields, vineyards, olive orchards and give them to his courtyard.***
***He will take one-tenth of your vineyards and give it to his officers and courtyards, he will take your male and female slaves and give them to his work.***
***He will take one-tenth of your flocks and you shall be his slaves and in that day you will cry out because of your king while you have chosen for yourselves. But the lord your God will not answer you in that day but the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel. They said; No! But we are determined to have a king over us so that we also may be like other nations and that our king may govern us and go out before us and fight our battles.***
When Samuel had heard all the words of the people, he repeated them in the ears of the lord. The lord said to Samuel, listen to their voice and set a king over them, Samuel then said to the people of Israel "each of you should return home." Saul became king over Israel and ***Buhari became president over Nigeria.***
The people suffered under king Saul. The people suffered and still suffer under President Buhari as their men are being killed while wives and daughters raped and their lands been taken away just as the elders warned. ***What will the People do?*** It seems the only thing we learn from the history is that it's called "history". More often than not, we repeat the same mistake over and over again albeit in different variations, shades or styles but they still remain the same mistakes.
Some of them are even life threatening but it matters not. You know cancer and diabetes have killed several people in your family but your life style is inviting to the diseases. You know many families do not have patience and so their marriages keep on failing and yet you want to marry the most troublesome girl in town, ***what do you think will happen?***
You sell your vote every election circle and yet you expect a different kind of leadership, ***how?*** The people of Israel saw their mistakes and God chose and annointed David over them. God didnt go back to the sons of Samuel who the people earlier have rejected.
The people of Nigeria didn't learn anything from their mistakes and so here they are considering going back to Goodluck Jonathan, who typifies the sons of Samuel or Tinubu and his ilk who typify the family of Saul. A people who never learn. As we are so our nation is.
***When will people get fade up and start groaning and begging God to have his way?***
***When will we decide that cancer and diabetes won't kill one more member in our family?***
**When do we say no more failed marriages in my bloodline?**
***When do we say no more bloodletting in our society?***
***When do we say no more clueless leadership in our land?***
***When do we say less of me and more of God?***
***When do we hand over the reigns to God and say God please take controls oh lord?***
We are expert at making mistakes that destroys us and God is an expert in saving us from our mistakes but in between the mistake and God's deliverance always a lot of pain and agony, ***is that the price you want to keep paying?***
Judging by our actions it seems we are prepared to keep paying the price. ***What are you eating? What are you drinking?what are you doing?*** The answers to these questions will tell you what outcome to expect for yourself and for your country. May God help us all do what is right.

Fine rotten apple!
The journey of love and relationship is something one need to really ask himself or herself if he or she is truly ready to start. ***I will not waste time but to go straight to hit the nail on the head.***
I have come to conclusion that the journey of relationship is not an easy walk. How would you digest this situation where you have someone you truly love and have shown her so much attention, on the other hand she professes the same love to you but her actions is the opposite of what she confesses to you.
Each passing day because of her weird attitudes towards you, you begin to wonder if you are truly getting it right with the way you show her how much you truly love her. When you approach her to know what could cause her weird attitudes towards you, Instead of her to really calm down and understand where you are coming from, she begins to talk down on you, blackmail you emotionally, get you confused with so many awkward statements and make you feel wrong for even coming to her to complain about her weird attitudes towards you.
In some cases she begins to accuse you of always listening to outsider, friends and allowing them to feed you with wrong information on how to run your relationship, the most painful part of it is when you try to make her understand that she is getting everything all wrong about her thoughts towards you, instead of her to see reasons and truly accept what you are trying to say and make correction or redress her statement, she rather insist that what she is saying is the truth and that you are trying to dodge from the truth.
She does anything she wants without communicating with you, Infact you get to know her Intentions and plans when she has finished carrying it out. She feels that she does not owe you any explanation towards any thing she wants to do. She does as she likes and feels it's okay that way and you can deal with it if you don't feel good about it. Nothing that she takes serious with you.
She keeps friends that are so wayward in their mode of dressing, lifestyle and character, when you want to tell her about the type of friends she is keeping, she gets offended and start to defend them, cover them up and make you look like the bad person when you are trying to make her see reasons over the type of friends she is keeping. Sometimes these friends of hers will invite her over for parties at late night hours and even make her sleep outside her house all night till the next day, when she comes back you complain about it she gets offended. In all of these her weird attitudes and behaviours, she still pretends that everything is going on well with you and her in the relationship and that you are the one that is really working yourself up.
When you have such woman or man in your relationship, what do you think will be the state of your mind, emotion and heart in this type of relationship? The answer is confusion, pain, sadness, heartbreaks and all the negative energies that are not healthy to your body system, heart and emotions. When you see yourself in such type of relationship, it will be difficult for you to really make the best out of your relationship.
It's even worst when the affected person is so much In-love with this person portraying all these weird attitudes and character, it will be very difficult for the affected person to really make the right decision either to quit the relationship or not.
It's an unhealthy relationship when you find yourself in such type of relationship. One thing for sure is that gradually love starts to fade away, hate and other negative feelings starts to occupy that heart that once loved and cared. I am really talking out of experience because I have been in such situation, I was so helpless and never knew how to handle the situation not until my heart that was once filled with love started changing to heart filled with pain, sadness and hate due to her constant weird attitudes she never wanted to change for better.
If you are in such condition in your relationship, please do all you can to make it work for better, but if you try and nothing changes please, try and walk away from such relationship because the more you are in such relationship the more you cage yourself and mortgage your heart from meeting that right person that will give you that desired love and peace of mind. Once you make a bold step to move on my dear, you will surely find that joy that knows no bound in another person.

To be a good writer, you must be a good liar!
You may be so confused with this topic I am about to share with you in this article, and be wondering what I meant by that. Anyways, before I continue with my article, I want to appreciate everyone of us for the effort so far in contributing one way or the other to educate and enlighten us in various aspect of life with our different articles. Let's continue to add more effort and our best in making sure we keep educating the world through this awesome platform.
Back to the main topic of the day, well as we all know that writing is the activity or occupation of composing text for publication. And this text can be in riddles, poems, stories, letters writing, composition, etc which are written down for one to read and make use of. Most of the stories we read from books, movies and documentaries we watch on the television are all writing down before been broadcast or printed in book forms and other formats.
If you watch closely you will understand that most stories that are been written down comes in different forms which can be known as fiction and non-fiction stories.
****FICTION WRITING****
According to Oxford dictionary, it defines fiction as literature in the form of prose, especially novels, that describes imaginary events and people. In other words, they are stories that never existed but are told for teachings and for educational purposes. For instance, stories like Alice in Wonderland, Lord of the Rings, The lion king, etc. These are stories that were acted but never happened in real life. The writer of these stories which were acted by different actors and actresses in fiction formats to bring out the stories in a movie form can be said to be good writer, because they wrote stories that never happened nor existed yet people that watched it fell in love with the movies and it was said to be one of the best of stories ever written and acted as movie on cinema.
****NON-FICTION WRITING****
According to Wikipedia, the non fiction story is any document or media content that intends, in good faith, to present only truth and accuracy regarding information, events, or people. Non-fictional content may be presented either objectively or subjectively. Examples of these type of stories includes true life stories, biography of a person, animal documentaries, etc.
Of all these two types of writings we have, the most popular and trending writing is the fiction type of stories. People tend to love and appreciate stories that are in fiction format because, these type of stories comes with suspense, thrill, and mind blowing actions that will put you on the edge to always want to continuously reading the story books and watching the story in movie format till the end.
Most bestseller books and movies stories are fiction based books and movies. According to study, it was revealed that kids from the age of 2 love to watch movies and read story books that are fiction based, they may not likely put interest to watch movies and read story books that comes in non-fiction formats.
When you dig deep and take a study to actually know why they love these types of fiction stories more than the non-fiction stories, you will be shocked to understand that their reason is nothing but the way the story line is been written down and when they read it, it catches their minds and put them in a dream world where their imaginations and feelings are expanded.
In conclusion, for you to be a good writer, it's very important that you know how to create imaginary stories that will captivate your readers and also educate them in a positive way. Do not feel or have this mindset of seeing a writer who choses to create his or her stories based on fiction as someone who does not understand the true meaning of writing. *****When you think outside your box, you will have every reason to create, develop and write down any thing that comes your way as a story.*****
Indeed, to be a good writer, you must be a good liar!

Making BCH your spending power.
As we know, the world we are living in is filled with lots of crypto tokens flying around the crypto world and bitcoin cash is not left alone. There are also fake and unrealistic crypto tokens floating in the internet space and people have been played into scouting, investing in these fake tokens and have lost their fortunes and life hard savings all in a bit to make wealth through these unknown crypto token. Even in the crypto trading platforms, they have been a lot of losses and dips in the crypto markets and that has really affected so much persons, firms, companies and cooperate businesses. But in all of these challenges and setbacks, BCH as an entity is seriously making all the necessary efforts and steps to be at the top where other strong cryptocurrencies are.
Because of the recent slow upward flow of token in the crypto world today most people have liquidated their assets and left in fear in order not to fall victim of loss in some crypto tokens thereby making some known tokens worthless, unsellable and unmarketable.
Now let us talk about the use of BCH as your spending power. You already know that we have different currencies around the world such as dollar, pounds, euro, etc and these currencies have been known and accepted to be used in buying and selling of goods and other transactions around the world. Of recent some countries of the world have introduced the use of cryptocurrencies as another means of buying and selling of goods and other transactions, BCH token is not left out in this new trend of using cryptocurrency token as means of buying and selling.
Because of this great step of change in crypto world, I have been able to have access to BCH through read.cash where I can make bold to say that all my transactions now depend on this great token called ***bitcoin cash***. I have also been able to walk through situations and conditions that I never knew I could pull through all because I was opportune to access BCH token. After my past experiences with my financial institution where I passed a lot of challenges to have access to my fund that I kept in my bank account, I decided to try using binance wallet, trust wallet and bundle wallet platforms respectively to save and access my cash in BCH worth, and to my greatest surprise, I had free flow of access and transaction with my fund without any issue whatsoever to sort my problems and also had access to grow my fund under these wallets I kept my BCH token.
imagine when I never had access to BCH token through read.cash, some of the recent financial challenges I had some months ago, I wouldn't have known how to solve them. Yes you may have your different opinions to what I am saying about BCH, but if you can be able to tell yourself the truth for once, you will agree with me that one way or the other BCH may have saved you from one stress or another.
I will surely advocate for everyone to try putting more effort in promoting and helping the BCH token to circulate to every corner of the crypto world and help in making it to grow and have more asset values where it can be seen as the only better token to be accepted around the world for usage for any transaction. BCH has come to stay in the crypto world and whether we like it or not, BCH will make the world a better place in no distant time.
As for me, I will make all effort to continuously increase my BCH collections and earnings, also promote bitcoin cash flow to the crypto world in my own community. The advert and constant introduction of BCH token and it's benefits to my friends is the beginning of a prosperous BCH growth in the crypto world, you too can also help BCH token grow in your own community where you belong to.

Home keeper
***You don't have to see me as your servant okay! We both should do our best to manage this home and make it what we want it to be. This was Mrs Victoria"s reply to her angry husband this morning as they were quarreling with each other and their voices were so loud all over the compound where we all live as neighbors and tenant.***
Most married couples and families have forgotten the main purpose of being in marriage with their spouse and have turned their partners to be their housemaids who they rely on to serve them and do virtually everything in the house. Of a truth, in our African marriage settings, starting from our forefathers from the year 1900 - 1990 even to this present day, we have seen a lot families and marriages where the women are left with the responsibility of taking care of the house chores, cooking and keeping the house clean. Most married men believed that once you paid your wife's dowry, she does not have any right to make choices and do as she likes, they feel it's their duty to control their wives's activities and movement, in this case women under them are helpless and does not have a say in their marriages. What ever pleases their heart to do, that's what they do and they don't care how the woman involved may be feeling.
On the other hand, some married women from this side of our world Africa, naturally believed that it's their fundamental and marital duty to take care of their families and making sure that everything both preparation of food, keeping the house clean, and taking care of all the necessary chores in the house are done by them, it's not in any man's duty to take care and handle such duties meant for them(women) in their various homes.
But of a truth, I ask you these questions;
I**s that truly the actual meaning of marriage?**
**Does it signify and define an ideal marriage relationship the world at large upholds?**
**Is it another method of indirect slavery of women in this our side of the world who found themselves in marriage union?**
**Is it also another method of trying to shove the women's right and dignity under the carpet and make them look inferior to men and in their families?**.
These are my personal mind blowing questions I have asked myself several times and yet I can't find the right answers to it. I believe that marriage relationship should be seen as a mutual one where two different Individuals who agree to come together in love and understanding, helping each other to grow personally and as one body, and also to start up a family they will join hands to build together. This was the reason the bible made it clear that ***a man shall leave his mother and father and cling to his wife and they two shall become one***.
If the word of God should see marriage of two persons as one, why then are we seeing marriage over here as one sided union? I watched a movie titled ****HOME KEEPER**** and in thIs movie, a woman was seen as the person that does every domestic work in the house and she does not have time for herself while the husband goes around to catch plenty of fun with his friends and at night he goes to the wife to still force her to perform her conjugal duties as his wife without having any feeling that this his wife is not just a sex toy but also her partner who should be respected.
Who told some men that it's their right to treat their women as garbage bags? And who said a man can not also help the wife to make the work load in the house simple and easy for their wives? In as much a woman is seen as a helper to the man in marriage relationship, the man should also have it at the back of his mind that women should be treated with utmost respect, love and care and must not be seen as a tool to be used to achieve any domestic or whatsoever task in the house.
*****Remember, husbands love and cherish your wife at all times as bible instructed.*****
For a marriage relationship to survive, everybody involved should see each other as one and must be treated with love and respect. The service of the home should be handled as one not just one sided, the husband should be able to help the wife in the family, while the wife should also help the husband in all things. Marriage is a partnership not a means to enslave anybody no matter the condition and situation that arises.
If we all should stand with each other and be the best helping hands to one another in our marriages and homes, the society and the world at large will be a better place for all of us to live and enjoy.

Make decision now to grind your way to success with read.cash!
Standing out with great success amongst your other opponents and contesters in the field of play comes with a lot of responsibilities and commitment. Becoming the best amongst the best as a winner in the field of play with different forces and strong oppositions is not an easy journey to walk through. It takes a whole lot of *****energy, determination, commitment, focus and consistency***** to achieve success.
Most people have failed to apply these five major principles of achieving success during their time of pursing success. As you know, nothing comes easy less you try and when you fail to make effort and put extra energy you will not achieve that desired success you may be needing.
You may have the energy and the zeal in your heart to chase success, but because you do not carry along with you other principles needed to achieve success, you will end up being at a place and filling disappointed. I remembered when my brother introduced read.cash to me, at first I was not in anyway having any interest about it, I found it to be so tasking and challenging because you have to think, research and make out time to write something interesting and educating in order for you to attract people on your page to read your work, also you have to read other people's articles, comment and also upvote their articles if you find it interesting, so because of that I didnt want to join read.cash platform.
As days, weeks and months passed, due of the energy, commitment and other principles I saw in my brother with the way he was pushing on read.cash and the result he was getting, I became interested to really know how to join read.cash. I went back to him and asked him to put me through, thank God he obliged and was able to assist me to register and open an account with read.cash, from there I started.
At first, I was confused and didn't know where to start, what to write and how to go about it, but one thing that kept me going was the overwhelming commitment, focus, determination, consistency and energy I saw in my brother each morning I wake up from sleep to see him writing and posting his article on read.cash, so I began to write and before you knew it, ideas and what to write started coming out, I had to make out time for read.cash from my tight and busy schedules each passing day. Due to the nature of my work, I decided to be staying awake till 3am early morning every day all in a bit to make sure I write an article that I will post at read.cash that day.
In less than a week of my input on read.cash, thank God read.cash picked interest in my articles and RandomRewarder started visiting my page and tipping me with BCH token as reward for my effort so far. That singular act of kindness I received from rewd.cash through randomrewarder, the encouragement from my brother each moment and desire to achieve success pushed me to keep writing and grinding to achieve success.
Although I must admit that it's was not easy because there were a lot of challenges, distractions and other unforseen circumstances that really came up in the course of writing on reading.cash. But my joy was full and overwhelming when I got a heavy BCH token reward from read.cash through randomrewarder in one of my posts I sent on read.cash.
The kindness I received from read.cash gave me much hope and believe that there is a reward for every effort in right direction and ever since that time till now, I have not stopped grinding and making sure that I do my best to achieve success. We all have our different pursuits and endeavours, it will be great if we all do our best in making sure that we put all arsenals we have together and stay focused, determined, committed and consistent in what ever we put our hands on in order to achieve success.
Always have this at the back of your mind that success achieved they say brings satisfaction of heart and peace of mind.
Don't give up if you want to achieve that desirable success. Read.cash platform is here to help you achieve your desired success, start now to grind more in all time and season. I know I have not gotten to where I want to be but I thank God and read.cash for changing me from my former status to where I am right now.

The true meaning of love is sacrifice; Read.cash an icon of true sacrifice of love with BCH reward!
Ever since I joined this great platform called read.cash, I have taken a keen interest to actually study the activities that take place in this platform, I have made some efforts to know how read.cash generate this free BCH token that RandomRewarder give to her members for dropping their articles in this great platform. I have also done rigorous pluses and minuses on their modus operandi to actually know how they get hold of this BCH token they freely share to their well deserved members, up till now I am yet to receive or find any answers to my search.
After I have gone round the circle to satisfy my curiosity over this particular issue, I decided to look inward to the real meaning of love and right there I understood that the actions and this kind gesture we receive in read.cash through RandomRewarder is the true meaning of love. Yes quote me anywhere and I will claim every responsibility for my statement.
Read.cash have shown the world and her members that;
**1. To love is to sacrifice rather than promises.**
**2. True love is being measured by the action that comes with it not on a mere word we say to the next person beside us.**
**3. True love always find itself on the side of appreciating that smallest effort one may think it's not important, not necessary or not enough.**
**4. True love comes with no bound, it goes beyond colour, tribe, ethnicity, religion, belief or race and it does not discriminate.**
**5. True love cultivates and germinates true sportsmanship in the field of play.**
**6. True love encourages rather than discourage.**
**7. True love promotes one's ability to grow effectively through sponsorships and support.**
**8. True love endures and gives all.**
All of these mentioned above are what we see from read.cash, and that's what it means to really say you love someone, all of these are embedded in sacrifice and if we want to make an example of it to other social media platforms, read.cash platform should be the first to stand tall because they have really shown so much sacrifice to people of different colour, tribe, race, ethnicity, religion, etc without looking back or having a second thought.
**If it's not true love what then can it be called I ask you my dear friend?** For a person or a social platform that does not know you from Adam to continuously reward you with the gift of BCH token as appreciation for your ideas and knowledges you deposit in their platform which they do not make use of either for personal gain or any other use rather than promoting, encouraging and assisting you to develop your writing skill and potentials more which other social media platforms fail to achieve or even put into consideration to reward, appreciate or even encourage their users to grow more through their platform and also for making use of their platform.
Just the same way in the holy book as Jesus Christ was said to have left his heavenly place and position to come down to the world, suffered and sacrificed his own human body for the sake of mankind to have life eternal. When you study the history of those that have given up their lives for the sake of love you will understand that during their time on earth, they made sacrifices and gave their whole self out for the sake of love, never expecting anything in return from anyone.
We could see that in the life of saint valentine who the world celebrate on every 14th February in his name as lover's day. Also in the true life story of titanic where Jack gave up his life for his lover Rose to stay alive, and many other stories we may have come across.
If you have not started making sacrifices to those you claim to love in your life maybe to your spouse, families, friends and folks or to anybody you find love with, then know it that you are not getting it right. Read.cash has shown it to all of us right from our first day of joining their platform to take a leaf from. I will continue to appreciate and show my gratitude to read.cash for proving to me particularly that they love me through the overwhelming numerous sacrifices of love they have shown to me and other people who belong to their platform.
**Read.cash, your platform is the best amongst the best!😘👍🙋 I love read.cash.**
***Thank you so much for reading my article 🙏 Rafd******9828******.***
Bitcoin cash earnings saved me! A testimony you need to hear.
I have always tried to work things out on my own, even when I know my chances are slim to settle my troubles when they come around, I have kept to myself and believing that I can handle my challenges not until this particular incident came knocking at my door and I didnt have any option of running away from it anymore. You might be wondering what type of problem could that be to hold me hostage and helpless. Yes, my house rent expired after I came back from the Christmas holiday and you already know how money and expenses are during Christmas period.
I was really thinking deeply and very disturbed so much because of how I can be able to raise money in a short period of time to renew my expired my house rent, I looked everywhere and I couldn't find money, I was lost and confused because my landlord was already on my neck calling me to make sure I don't tell him stories about his house rent money. I went out of my way to seek for financial assistance from my friends and all of them turned me down because they too have spent a lot of money and also have their own challenges they are already facing. For real I was not in any way angry with my friends because they turned me down, I already understand them and know that they too have their own challenges.
I know some of you will be thinking in their minds and asking **"why didn't you make plans to save money for your house rent when you know the house you are living in was under rent?"** Yes you are right to think in that direction and sincerely, I will not blame you if you do, but the truth is, I already made plans for it but because of my father's critical health challenges which I used my rent money and all the money I could lay my hands on to settle his hospital bills some months ago, because of that I was not able to come up with the house rent money which I supposed to pay by 4th January this year.
So you see, one may have plans to achieve a goal but unforseen circumstances will occur and take away your plans and change everything for you. This was exactly what I was faced with all through the remaining ember months of last year and carrying it over to this January. I was confused and didn't know where to start from and how to handle the present challenges I was facing. But you know,
***TIP 1: Having a good Plan and making reservation for plan B and C is the ultimate way of survival in time of difficulties and challenges.***
Thank God I made a reservation with my read.cash BCH earnings as my plan B. Immediately, I remembered that I have been saving up my BCH earnings in one of my wallets I created for it, for some time when I started newly with read.cash, I created a wallet and kept the password safe, there I was saving up some BCH I was getting from randomrewarder and people for the articles I was posting and I didnt know how much it was because I only saved my receiving wallet address of BCH and only paste the wallet address when ever I want to send my earnings from read.cash to my wallet. I didn't have the time to open the wallet to know how much worth of BCH I was getting from read.cash.
After so much disappointments from people I thought would help me in short notice, I remembered my wallet and how I have been sending my earned BCH from read.cash, I quickly searched for my dairy book and got the password to my wallet where I have been saving up my BCH earnings.
***TIP 2. Do not feel bad when you are turned down by the people you love and from your friends/ folks when you need their assistance especially financial assistance. Learn to understand that they too have their own needs and problems as you do.***
When I opened my wallet, I was shocked to see that I have saved a lot in that wallet from the earnings I received from Read.cash RandomRewarder and from friends also. My joy was overflowing and my heart was filled with hope and I became alive once again. I never knew I had such amount of BCH with me, I quickly sold some of it, settled my landlord and other challenges I was faced with because of money.
***TIP 3: learn to create a means to save up even if it's little of your earned BCH, because someday you will be surprised to see the importance of savings when the need arises.***
Right now, I am free and so excited because if not for the benevolence of read.cash in showing appreciation to her members on their articles they post in their platform with Bitcoin cash token, I know by now I would have been in deep trouble raising money for my expired house rent.
***TIP 4: always show appreciation and gratitude where and when it's necessary. Do not feel too big to say thank you to people and any platform that make positive impact in your life.***
I want to specially thank read.cash platform for bringing this amazing opportunity for all of us to join and deposit our ideas and knowledges for the betterment of our societies and the world at large. Thank you so much for the kindness from your heart to always appreciating and giving us your gift of BCH through RandomRewarder as token to our articles. Thank you also my great and wonderful personalities who one way or the other given their little to encourage everyone here in this community of like minds.
Please guys **BCH** all the way!
***Always keep the spirit high. I love you all and thanks for reading my article 🙏. Rafd9828***
Heartbreak sucks but Do not hold yourself back from experiencing true love again.
Hello my amazing friends here, I just want to appreciate you today for your love, contributions, wonderful ideas, experiences and knowledges you have been depositing in this great and exciting platform **read.cash**. if you don't belong to this family of great minds you are already missing a lot and if you are still delaying yourself from joining or make effort to contribute your ideas for learning sake you are also missing a lot too, anyways **Read.cash** is not waiting for you to wake up and make positive impact here, people like us that knows the value and the immeasurable experiences and knowledges we get every moment of our lives for being here will never stop appreciating and doing our very best to share knowledge and also learn from this awesome platform called **read.cash**.
I have this topic that has really pinched me so much in my heart and because of that I brought it upon myself to seek for opinions from people through discussions and I had them give their reasons and opinions on this said topic that I am about to discuss here now.
The title: *****Heartbreak sucks but Do not hold yourself back from experiencing true love again******.*
I was having serious discussion with a friend of mine I met newly on facebook, we shared our contacts and from there we started discussing and it happened that we were talking about love and relationship, I told her about the difficulties I am having in finding true love, finding someone who will love me unconditionally, and that I have not met any woman who is ready for such type of relationship. There she replied me by saying, there are still women who are ready to love unconditionally but the problem is from the men, once a man notice that you truly love him with your whole heart he starts to misbehave and take that woman for granted. I got confused with her response and said to her, I am loyal to true love but I have never found that woman that will love me just for who I am, not for what I have. I continued to explain to her that with the way this our generation is going, to find such a person will be so difficult in this our time.
I quickly told her that I am a broke dude financially but I know how to love and be loyal to my partner, immediately she saw my response, she replied **"hmmmm"**. I asked her why she responded in that manner, she replied again and said; ****"No money No love!"**** As I wanted to continue with the discussion, she quickly shunned me that she does not want to discuss this love issues any longer with me, I was surprised and out of curiosity I asked her what could be her reasons for not wanting to continue with the discussion, she replied with this sentence;
*****"men are wicked, I have learnt my lesson and I will not give my heart away to any man to toil with again."*****
I became astonished because of her response, I asked her what happened, she said she can't discuss that at the moment besides, she has moved on with her life. Right there I asked her these questions;
***Have you really moved on? Or does the heartbreak you had in your failed relationship changed your mindset and perspection about men and relationship?***
***Did the heartbreak make you take careful step in making sure that men don't hurt you again and thereby not fully giving your heart to experience true love again?***
Now listen my dear reader, most people have followed the wrong path in handling this type of situation that concerns failed relationships and heartbreak. They tend to believe that staying out of love, not giving their hearts or allowing their hearts find another true love will give them that strong peace of mind they wish and hunger for. To some they believe that joining the band wagon of people who go about faking love, walking out of love and breaking people's heart without feel of remorse or regret is the ultimate way of getting revenge or satisfaction of heart for the hurt they passed through in their past failed relationships.
The actual truth in all of these situations is that none of these steps taken can fetch you that peace and satisfaction you truly desire. The best win over hurt and heartbreaks from your past relationships is to let go of the past and try opening your heart for a better one, like they always say, when this door closes, another better door opens 😄😄😄😄. Remember that to love and be loved is the greatest experience one could ever imagine and when you keep holding onto the past and keep hurting yourself, you will not have the ability and the opportunity to truly find that next person who will bring out that spark of love from your heart again and make you have the best of it.
When you keep preventing yourself from experiencing true love, a time will come when you will seek for the opportunity to experience one but you will not get or see anybody who will be willing to offer his or her heart to you for a true love experience.
***Thank you so much and have a wonderful day. 🙏Rafd9828😘😘😘😘😘***
Live within your means!
I know of a man who always believe that he can impress people around him and because of that he goes for the things above his means thereby putting himself in great financial debt and danger.
You know about this wise saying great minds always say " ****Cutting one's cloth according their sizes******"**, this has been the greatest mistake a lot of people have failed to look at and find a way to make corrections when it comes to spending money and going for the things they like to have as property in life. One of the greatest joy and satisfaction someone may have in life is the ability to have what it takes to afford whatever thing that he or she desires without looking back or hoping on anybody or anything for assistance. Also On the other hand, one of the greatest mistakes one may have to live with in regret after is trying to go for the things he knows his source of income is not enough to get or acquire the things he desires and he adamantly goes ahead to get them at his own detriment or expense.
The quest to live large in the society, impressing families members, friends and colleagues at office, friends on social media or even at the different associations where one belong to, etc have also made a lot of people to regret and live in penury for the rest of their lives, most of them have gone to extra length to seek for loans from friends, families and even from financial institutions around them all in a bit to measure up with other men and women who they do not know how they make their money they spend without control.
It does not stop at that, you may see some people who may have friends and folks they hang out with, because one of the friends is throwing a big party and wants you to attend, instead of you to manage yourself with what you have, instead you go off the ladder to show-off to people that will be attending the party that you are richer or more classy than them all and because of that you put yourself in a financial debt with the vendors you bought the clothes and other items from for the said party. These things happen every day and this kind of life style have placed a lot of people on the regretting side.
Don't you think the best way of living a life is to live within your means? spending according to how you earn and spending wisely is the ultimate way of living a healthy and responsible life. You must not show off and try to live your life on the standard of human impression. Before you start to make some choices that will affect you later in life when it comes to living above your means, you must first consider these five questions below;
***1. Of what gain will I achieve when I spend more than I earn?***
***2. Do I really have the utmost satisfaction of heart if I end up going for the things I know my hands can't reach?***
***3. Do they have any reward for me for spending or living more than my means?***
***4. If I go bankrupt today because of the way I live and make expenses, will I ever get help from these same people that I have shown that I have it all with the way I live?***
***5. After everything will I still live happily ever after?***
I know if you can have a moment to ponder on these soul searching questions before you start living above your means, it will surely help you to have a second thought and control the way you live and spend your money. Most rich and wealthy personalities around the world today never lived their lives above their means. I believe that proper planning, discipline, self-control and financial management skill are the best approach to making a good successful living.
Leaning to live within your means can actually give you an edge over your colleagues and friends who spend without control, it can also bring you reasonable personalities who can entrust their investments in your care without blinking their eyes or looking back because of how you manage your life and your spending life style and also can bring good name to you amongst your friends and folks who come in contact with you everyday of your life.
Is not bad my friend to stop living above your means today and make a U-turn now to start living within your means. It pays to try a healthy and responsible living today. Start now my friend!

Let's talk about toddlers!
Having a toddler around you is a great work with lots of responsibilities. Because of their nature, the level of their brain development and how they see things, you don't need to take away your attention from them once they are under your care.
We all know how toddlers behave most especially when they are happy, relaxed, eaten and are well fed, immediately they have their sleep and wake up, the next moment you will have with them will not be funny at all. Is either they make you smile and happy, or they make you to shout all through the moment they are with you, or they convert you to be their security guard or Watchman because of the way they will be crawling up and down and turning the room upside down. Due to their nature, they are highly and hyper active in their behaviour, they like to touch anything their eyes come in contact with, they feel everything is safe to hold, touch or even eat, what ever that comes their way will surely enter their mouth. At this moment it's very critical and important that proper carefulness and watch is placed on them by anybody staying with them at that moment to avoid accident. They may not know the danger their actions may cause them if been allowed to do things they like.
**TODDLERS, THE ATTENTION SEEKERS**
Have you noticed that toddlers are attention seekers, they like to be given attention at all times and when you fail to show them that you are with them, they feel sad and cry at once. That's why most cases you may see a child that was happy and playing with you, but immediately you step away from his or her sight, the toddler starts to cry and will not stop until he or she sees you around.
**TODDLERS UNDERSTAND FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND BODY GESTURES**
In as much as they are still small and can not talk, they can see your facial expressions and understand your body gestures been made at them, that's why when you play with them and make a funny face at them, they can laugh and be happy, they can also get angry and sad when you make a face that is not friendly to them. They understand you when you make some body gestures to show them that you are not happy with what they are doing or even when you talk in a tone that sounds angrily at them because of their behaviour that is not pleasing to you, once they hear you, they try to stop what ever thing they are doing to look at your face. When they look at your face and see that you are not happy, they will gradually withdraw from what ever thing they were doing that made you shout or call them.
**TODDLERS ARE TOO INQUISITIVE**
Toddlers are too inquisitive in their nature, they like to see things for themselves, they are always anxious to know what ever their eyes or hands come in contact with. They don't give up on whatever their eyes or hands touches, that's why you see a toddler trying to climb the sofa furniture in the sitting room just to take away the television remote control from the parents, sometimes if you are not careful and they follow you to the kitchen, once they see the gas fire burning, they would want to climb the cooking gas just to touch the burning fire and if anybody is not there to watch over them, they get hurt.
**TODDLERS ARE GREAT PLAYMATE**
Toddlers love to play a lot once they are fed very well, they love to play and be engaged with lots of different things that could make them happy. If you have a toddler in your care, when once you play with them each time you are around them, they will always love to be around you. Apart from their biological parents that they see as their parents, the next person they know and love to be with is that person that always play with them each time he or she is around them.
**TODDLERS LOVE BEING AROUND THEIR FELLOW MATES**
Toddlers love to be around their fellow mates. They talk to each other and communicate in their own language and only them can understand what they are discussing. Your baby can stay quiet all by himself but immediately there is another one or more toddlers around, you will surely hear them talk at each other.
**THEY DREAM A LOT**
Toddlers are great dreamers, they dream a lot during sleep. You can see that when they sleep, they try to roll from one end of the bed to another with different types of noise while they sleep, at times when they sleep if you watch them closely you will discover that while they sleep they wear smiling faces, touch their faces and even hold their legs as they sleep unconsciously. All these are signs that they maybe having a wonderful dream as they sleep.
**THEY LOVE TO DESTROY THINGS WITHIN THEIR REACH.**
Finally, toddlers are very good at destroying things at home or even things around them. What ever they lay their hands on, it's either they tire it apart with their hands or they use their mouth to tire it into pieces without looking back. It's always advisable that when you are with toddlers please mind what you keep for them to play with, if you are not careful, if they lay their hands on your house documents and valuables, they will destroy it without knowing what they are doing.
In all, Toddlers are wonderful and adorable angels in their nature, being around them and watching them grow is the best experience anyone should pray for. I love toddlers and one day I will live to have mine someday soon.

Helpless me!
I am really so tired of all these negative feelings and energy I get from this woman I have come to love this crazy.
**Does it mean if I don't call or text her she will not respond, chat or even call me on the phone for the whole day?.**
**Does it mean I am the one that remind her about myself to propel her to call me nor respond to me each day?** This is heart breaking I must confess.
I have really endured this attitude of hers for a long period of time and have been praying, hoping and waiting patiently for her to realise that her actions are rather tiring us apart than building the love we have shared for many years now. Who should I run to for assistance atleast to help me talk to her for her to understand that her action is gradually killing me and the love I once felt for her?. The funniest part of it is that she does not have any answer to her actions and weird attitudes towards me, and several times I have asked her to tell me her mind and intentions towards us all because of the way she behaves and after asking her questions , the only thing that comes out of her mouth is;
***"I DON'T HAVE ANY REASONS FOR MY ACTIONS AND I DIDN'T SEE ANY WRONG THAT I HAVE DONE THAT WILL WARRANT THIS QUESTIONS AND QUERIES.***
I am gradually going mad and very helpless because I don't really know how to tell her that I need a break and stand on my words because I love her so much and have shown her that I love her through my words and actions towards her and she now hold on the fact that I love her and has kept behaving in a manner that is getting me crazy and helpless.
This is the present situation I find myself in at this moment and I know some of you might misunderstand this and try to blame me for sharing my private love life here on this platform, some will even call me names and others may say I am not man enough to handle my issues, but of a truth, I am not bringing it here for you to see how bad my love relationship is or how the relationship is going but rather I am sharing it for your candid opinion and advise and also for you to learn from my story and know how to make corrections and adjustments if you are experiencing such at the moment in your relationship.
***What will you call this scenario where you are in a relationship and you are just the one working so hard to make your relationship work?*** You practically do everything just to make your spouse happy and in return she feels nonchalant about everything, very lackadaisical in her attitude towards you and you keep pressing hard and keep reminding her that she is not coming up with her own responsibility of returning the feelings back to you and after you made your opinion known to her, all she would do is to pretend that she does not know where your complaint are coming from, that everything is fine and nothing is wrong with the way she acts towards you and start to make you feel guilty and that you are truly the cause of your problems.
Someone outside may not know the type of trauma and feelings one go through when another person find him or herself in such situations. To some of us here, you may have passed through these type of ill treatments and feelings from your loved ones or someone you hold on a high esteem and I know you know how it feels to go through such emotional torture and pain all because you want to experience love and make it work. Because of that you subject yourself to rigorous challenges and pains and yet she does not act in a way that will make you believe she values your effort towards the relationship you share with her.
When the man eventually decides to let go of his struggles and efforts in keeping the relationship and accept to let go of the relationship, that will be the time the woman will wake up and want to make the love relationship work again and by that time it will be too late because the man's heart, soul, body and mind have long left the woman and the relationship because of her weird attitudes and behaviour. Most relationship you see today that has torn apart happened because of this particular issue I am facing today with my partner.
*****JUST REMEMBER THIS;*****
1. I tell you this, you don't need to take your spouse's effort to making sure your relationship work unserious. This is exactly what break alot of relationships, marriages and even ordinary friendships one keep with the next person beside him or her. The moment you start to behave nonchalantly and lackadaisically towards your partner and your partner starts noticing it and keep working hard to call you to order and you kept ignoring the warnings and signs, know it that you are the one that destroyed your relationship.
2. When you are fade up and tired of the relationship and you need a break, it's not good to keep leading your partner on in the relationship, it's good you come out open and tell your partner that you are no longer interested with the relationship rather than playing with your spouse's emotions and feelings. That's could cause more harm than good to the affected person in future if it's not handled in time.
3. No need of you loving your spouse out of pity. This is very wrong most especially when it has to do with one's heart and emotions. Is either you love him or her and show that person how much he or she meant to you and even without any personal attachment or reason towards your partner, you still love him or her. This is the best form of love, to love without any reason.
4. If you need a strong relationship there must be a proper and adequate communication between the two persons involved, love grows effectively when the two persons involved communicates very well and understand each other more. Paying attention and giving a listen ear helps alot when having a communication with your spouse, that also makes relationship perfect.
5. Value what you have no matter how small that thing is, you may be hoping on what is outside without knowing that the one inside is much more better than the one outside. Remember a bird at hand is far better than thousands in the bush. Learn to value that person that is there always trying to put smile on your face, value that person that could give his or her last penny for your happiness and also value that person that will not just look at your face rather from your voice on phone without seeing your face know when you are happy and when you are not happy. It takes one who has value for you to really put his or her ears down to know when you are sad and when you are happy.
I know you will not allow yourself to be used to cause pain to that person that truly love and care for you each passing day.

Do you faithfully keep to your new year resolutions?
Many people have before the new year day made a list of things they would want to drop as they enter the new year why others have also listed out things they want to start doing in order to solve their personal issues and wants. We have practically made it as a point of duty or would I say a yearly routine after thanking God and celebrating the new year we move Inside our rooms and houses and begin to discuss with our loved q ones, families and friends about our new year resolutions, some will even keep it as a secret to themselves alone never to discuss it with anybody about what they want to drop or take as either character, habit or their relationship with their fellow human beings as the case may be.
Before I continue with my article, I want to throw a little light on the concept of new year resolutions by some individuals.
***According to Wikipedia concept, it tries to explain new year resolutions as a tradition, most common in the Western World but also found in the Eastern World, in which a person resolves to continue good practices, change an undesired trait or behavior, accomplish a personal goal, or otherwise improve their life at the start of a new year. Also according to Meriam-webster definition, it defines new year resolutions as a promise to do something differently in the new year.***
Having seen some of these explanations about what new year resolutions could mean, my questions are; how often do we keep these promises made at every first day of every new year we are opportune to witness? Do we really just say these promises just to make others feel good about us, or to satisfy our consciences or do we just feel it's a routine and normal thing to say every first day of a new year and after that we go back to our normal way of life?
Let me not take your mind off from the point I want us to derive from in this article with the questions I am putting to you. Yes I have come to realise that often times we make promise of what we want to stop doing and the ones we want to start doing in our lives as a new year resolutions at every first day of a new year, but after a little time we fail to keep to those promises we made, we even forget that we had such discussions with friends and people we care about and as time goes on we go back to those things that we said we will not do. I have asked myself this question countless times of what use is it to keep making new year resolutions every first day of a new year when you know you can't fulfil the promises?
If I am asked to drop my opinion about this new year resolutions issue, I would suggest that people should just do their best to live their life and try to do the ones they can do before the year runs down without coming out to promise the things they know they can't fulfill before the year runs down. It's not an easy thing to keep to promises whether the ones you made to yourself or to other people in life . The worst of it all is actually that moment when you have made promises of the things like character, habits and lifestyle you want to stop living and within a short while after that first day, temptations and trials will set in just to shake you and remove your mind so you can not fulfil the promises and before you know what's going on, you have already failed.
Being rich and achieving all you want, goals and aspirations before the year runs down to end does not necessarily be attributed to the new year resolutions you made on that first day of the each year. Some who made resolutions were not able to fulfil the promises they made while some persons who never had time to start having a new year resolutions ended their year in success and dropped some of the things they never wanted to be seen with without even making any promises to themselves or to other persons.
The success of achieving anything in life starts from the mindset of being positive, being focused on the goals you are set to achieve, working hard and making sure that you actualise that goal before the end of the year. These are the tools one need to survive and make progress in life with. If we can learn to say less of what we want to do, achieve in life or character we want to drop but allow our achievements and our good character speak good about us it will surely make a great difference rather than making promises and at end of the day you will not be able to fulfil them all.
In conclusion, as we all are pushing forward to see how this year 2022 will favour us all, let's always bear in mind that to succeed this year is solely depended on the type of effort, energy and commitment you will put inorder to achieve success.
***I am wishing all of us a happy New year and thank you for reading my article 🙏 Rafd9828.***
She walked into the cold hands of death.
It was indeed a sad night for the family of late miss Kate Stephen as they all were crying in heartbreak and pain for the sudden death of their beloved daughter as she passed on to the great beyond as a result of love.
*This story I am about to share with you today is a true life event and will also serve as an advise to the young men and women in our world today who fall in love with their spouses and love with everything they have got without first making sure they observe their partner to really know the real lifestyle their partner maybe living.*
****Disclaimer:**** please this article is not in any way written to discourage young lovers from finding love and falling in love when they find that person their heart beats for, rather it's for educational purposes and as a guide to a healthy relationship.
****The Story****
**She walked into the cold hands of death.**
Miss Kate a young woman who was 22years of age, who was still pursing her educational career as an undergraduate medical student in one of the universities in Nigeria. One day she went out with her friends for a hang out at one of the fast food joints and there she met this young man who walked up to her and asked her for a date and after little pressure from the young man she finally agreed and they went out for a date, after several hangouts and dates they decided to give their friendship a chance to next level. As the days went by, they were so much into each other because the young man was out to make her happy by providing her with everything she needed at any given time. In fact, the lover mesmerised her brain and heart with lots of gifts, wonderful outings and love that she could not comprehend and before you knew it she lost her ground and forgot to really put keen Interest in finding more information about her lover.
After months of hot love experience and lifestyle, the lover decided to invite her to his place so she can accompany him to a friend's birthday party taking place in another city, immediately she packed her bags and few things she will be needing because they will be sleeping over as the party was scheduled to happen all night long. So they left for the place and on their way, she forgot to inform her roommate about her movement and she also failed to tell anybody even her close families of her whereabout all because she trusted her lover and believed she was in a safe hands.
On their way, she didn't know that the boyfriend who she was dating was a money ritualist and he has planned to use her for money ritual that night but lied to her that his friend was throwing a night party in another city . They left their city in the evening and as the lover was driving she slept off because she was tired, the lover changed course and drove her to the road close to a native and occultic shrine where they have planned to use her for money ritual and sacrifice instead of the party he told her about, when she woke up, she saw that the car has stopped and she couldn't find her boyfriend in the car, she immediately became afraid and tried calling the boyfriend but he was no where to be found, she picked her phone to make calls but network was not reachable to connect her call through to her friends or family for help, right there fear gripped her and she started crying and opened the door, she couldn't find her way because everywhere was so dark with crickets and owl crying so heavily that night.
She was intensed and decided to find her way to the main road with her phone camera light, as she was going, the boyfriend followed her from behind and hit her on the head with a wood and she fainted, the rest was history. She was killed by the one person she gave her heart to.
Unfortunately for the lover, as she was killed and her body parts were about to be cut into piece and be used for the money ritual and sacrifice, some group of animal hunters who were having their midnight animal hunting saw them, chased them and caught all of them that night with the dead body of miss Kate and handed them over to the police. When the news of her death reached to the family, they all were heartbroken and cried uncontrollably.
It was the boyfriend who was caught narrated this story as he was been interrogated by the police.
*****Now let us come to the table and see how we can advise ourselves from this true life event.*****
In as much as we are all trying to find that love and experience that amazing feeling of love with that one person, it's also important that we try to take note of these safety measures in order to be safe and protect ourselves from falling a second victim to this bad incident that happened to miss Kate Stephen.
***1. It's very advisable that we try to really know who we want to give our heart to thoroughly before moving deep with him or her. Finding more information about your spouse is a great deal towards a healthy and safe relationship.***
***2. Never allow yourself to be overwhelmed by what your spouse has offered you in order not to allow you see the need to watch your back at all times.***
***3. In case you want to hangout or go on a date tour, it's advisable that you tell your family or trusted friends about your plans before the actual day, they may give you tips and advise that will help you to be safe.***
***4. Learn to be smart with your head focused. It's important because in as much as you are trusting your spouse, it's also good that you use your head and common sense when need be.***
***5. When you are in a relationship, it's also important you make your friends and family to really know who you are dating. Making your partner to get acquainted with your family to really know who they daughter or son is going out with is a good step in right direction.***
***Finally, love is a beautiful thing, that it didn't go well with miss Kate Stephen today does not mean you should not try having a love experience with your spouse, all you need to do is to stay positive and always never allow your emotions to lead you, rather love with your heart and head and always stay safe at all times.***

The two face of a woman!
A Woman is known to be funny and somehow childish in her character when she is around that one person her heart beats for, she can really act in a manner that will take you off your feet and you start to wonder if she is truly the same person you met earlier that was so hard and tough to talk to. At the same time she can be so different and serious with the way she behaves or act to things and to people around her.
*****Have you noticed that love is the only thing that can make a woman behave so childish and will never notice that she acts like one?*****
When she fall in love with the right person that her heart beats for, she may never want to stay away from that person even a second, she will do all the things that you may not want to see her do, when you want to stay alone and have a quiet time, that's the moment she would want to create awareness, seek attention from you and disturb you in a way that will make you lose focus or distracted from what ever thing you were doing. Like you already know, everybody needs attention but I think women that are In-love seeks more attention than other women that are not In-love with any body.
In my many years of love experience with women, I have come to realise that every woman that falls In-love with their spouse act and behave almost the same way with other woman in love somewhere when it comes to staying with that special man they truly love. A woman's strength and ego fails beyond recognition when they find themselves around that one person their heart beats for each moment of their life.
When a woman is truly In-love with a man, she can go extra mile to give in all in her possession to that one person that her heart beats for. A woman's feelings and emotion is so strong that she don't really think both ways when she wants to do things for that person her heart beats for and love. But when a woman's feelings and emotions are not in any way attached to any man in form of love, she can be focused, strong and very straightforward to her dealings.
When you meet a woman the first time, because her heart is not filled with love and other sweet memories for you, she will be acting hard to get and at that moment she is in her right sense of judgment, she is incharge and in control of her attitude and words. You will not see the other face of her until you break into her heart and make her heart your own.
When it comes to true love, there is no pretence for the woman, when a woman is In-love with you, she would want to know every of your moves, every of your dealings and makes sure you are safe at all times. A woman that is seriously In-love with you will not have the mind to ask you for finance when she knows you really are not having at that moment, she will not feel bad when you don't spend for her when she need you to, but when she is not In-love with you, she does not care at all about your feelings, she will virtually be demanding money from you or anything that passes her way, she would want you to be getting anything her eyes sees whether you have the money or not, it will not be difficult for her to always demand something from you.
Every woman have this two faces of life in her but you can't see it until you hold her heart in your hands and bring out that special feeling of love from her. The best feeling you would ever get from a woman is only when she is truly In-love with that one person that her heart beats for. I have had the feelings and you too should also have the opportunity to experience the feeling.
*I want to use this medium to wish all of you here a wonderful merry Christmas and a prosperous new year, let all of us find the best of things in this Christmas season that will bring love, peace and harmony to our hearts as we all celebrate!*

Devil came visiting me within 12hours!
Good morning great friends and amazing people, it's really been a while since I dropped my article, well for sometime now I have not really been active because of the present financial condition and challenges I found myself of late, I have been battling with lots of personal issues and challenges at my work place, my family and within me. The story I am about to share with you is what I am currently facing right now and it's a true life event that is happening to me right now, it all started yesterday. In fact it has really been a hell of a month for me and yesterday incident was the highest of it all.
Up till this moment of sharing this story, I am still finding a way to see how I can settle my present financial challenge I am having with my landlord as he left my apartment yesterday evening in anger without a word to me.
**Disclaimer**: *Please my story is not in any way shared here as a means to extort money from anybody, rather this is to inform this great family of mine of my present state of condition since we see ourselves as one family of great readers. Please your personal assistance, advise, opinion and suggestions is really needed by me to help me pull through from this present situation I have found myself.*
****MY STORY****
Oh! What am I going to do right now? I have thoroughly searched all my belongings and the entire room yet I can't find my missing money. My entire savings I withdrew together with my November and December salaries I collected from where I do a contract work as a fashion designer yesterday gone, I can't find it again.
Could it be that I lost my money on my way back from work? Or did someone steal the money from my pocket as I was trying to hustle my way to enter the moving bus going to the city where I live after my work closed? God! What's is happening? All these were going through my mind as I have turned my room upside down when suddenly I heard a loud knock on my door, to my greatest surprise it was my landlord who came to collect his house rent that I was supposed to pay him 4months ago which I promised him to come yesterday in the evening to collect, as he kept knocking on my door, I didn't know what to do, I was so confused because I have already pleaded with him some days ago to come today and take his money which has long overdue for me to pay.
I was confused and lost all my thought on the next line of action to take inorder to make my landlord understand my present predicament, immediately I peeped through the eye of my door key and saw how serious his face was and how ready he was to break my door if I waste another second without opening the door as he was knocking. I hurriedly responded to his knock by asking who was at the door, he replied and said, I am your landlord! Please open your door and give me the house rent you promised to give me today, I have come for it.
I opened the door and immediately he stretched out his hand and said, please can I have your house rent money? I was speechless and was moping at him for some minutes and he repeated the second time, please can I have your house rent Mr Patrick? Since you opened your door you have been looking at me without uttering any word to respond to my comment. What's going on with you?
After he finished asking me question and I opened up to him to narrate my ordeal, how I lost the money I was supposed to give him today as I promised him some days ago. As I was still narrating my story to the landlord, out of anger my landlord shunned me immediately, stopped me from what I was trying to explain to him and quickly left my apartment. At that time my heart started beating faster than it should, fear gripped me because I was really not having any idea of the next line of action my landlord was planning to take because I failed to keep to my own words and agreement I had with him before now due to loss of the money I was supposed to give him today.
As I was about locking my door to wait for the next action my landlord was planning to take, immediately I heard another knock on my door and because I was so afraid, I refused to check nor ask who was knocking, when the person knocking noticed I wasn't responding he kept knocking until I opened the door and behold it was Mr Ifeanyi who borrowed me some money to settle my mother's health issue, oh! You are inside and you refused to open the door right? Well, I have come to take the money you borrowed from me and I must not leave your house without the money. I began to beg him to understand my present condition and what I am experiencing at the moment because of the money I lost today.
Mr. Ifeanyi refused to accept my plead and immediately said he will not leave my house without taking something that worth the amount of money he gave me. I pleaded and pleaded yet he refused and went straight to my wall television I was using, carried it and left my house. The television current price in the market is $235.00 and I was owning him $220.00 which I used to take my mother to the hospital for an emergency hip correction operation two months ago. Her surgery took a lot of money from me.
As I was trying to calm my mind down and understood what was going on, my phone started ringing and when I picked it was my younger brother from the village, he was crying on the phone that my mother is been rushed to the village clinic for an emergency, I asked him what happened, he said our mother just fainted while she was trying to cook dinner and has been rushed to the hospital, the doctor is demanding for some cash deposit before they can commence treatment on her, you know our Nigerian system and how they handle patients.
I have not slept all through the night till this morning, I am confused right now and really don't know what to do. I have called my landlord and he has not picked my calls ever since he left my apartment last night, I don't know his next action, my younger brother said the doctor just administered some Injections on her to revive her and I must come immediately to make deposit so they can run some tests on her and commence full treatment.
I am seriously losing my mind right now and don't know where to start from. Please your advice is personally needed by me because my landlord has threatened to evict me with a quit notice some months ago and I pleaded with him to give me little time to come up with the house rent. This one he left my place without a word, I don't know my fate and right now, my mother's condition is really very critical and I have no money anywhere with me. What do I do?
***Thank you for reading my story, God bless you 🙏 Rafd9828!***
Please lie on your sword!
You don't have to keep fighting everyday all because of this particular misunderstanding, why not allow peace to take over this constant fight and lie on your sword just for a moment, he said.
It all started as a joke when they were arguing about the method used in sharing the money that was given to them by one of the high ranking political party officers with other government officials that came to their ward for a courtesy call visit and after their stay decided to give the youth leader and the entire member of the party some cash to share amongst them.
When the program ended, the youth leader decided to play trick and unfair game with the sharing of the money amongst his members, before you know what was happening, misunderstanding and argument started and within a short period it turned to a serious fight that led to a long lasting fight amongst the youth which caused destruction of properties and serious injuries to some members who were fighting.
When the news of the fight reached to the hearing of the community head, he quickly called in the police and other security agencies in the community to quickly move in and stop the ongoing fight at the community square where the incident was already going on. When the police and other security agencies approached the scene of the clash, they immediately started calming the situation down and making arrest of the people that were involved in the fight.
After the fight was calmed and arrest were made, the community head requested that they all be gathered at his place so they can resolve the fight amongst the youths, the police released the detained persons to the community so they can settle the issue at the community level, when the youth leader of the party was asked what transpired at the place of fight, he began to say that he was about sharing the money given to them by one of the top party members of their party who came with his friends to the occasion that was held at their party secretariat and the sharing method didn't go well with the other youths so misunderstanding erupted and before we know what was happening, it turned to a serious fight that led to destruction of properties and Infliction of injuries on some members.
When the youth leader finished narrating his ordeal, the community head immediately started admonishing them all and he apportioned blame on the youth leader for not being a sincere and upright leader, he continued to tell the youth leader that he supposed to share the money equally because the money given to them was for them all to share equally, so there should not be any reason for such move that could bring misunderstanding.
***The community leader said a good leader should always have at the back of his mind that he is to sacrifice at all times.***
***You should not allow greed and position you are occupying to cover your sense of reasoning and your heart into forgetting to do the right thing.***
***You should learn to carry everyone along that is under your care and make sure you propagate peace and tolerance.***
***Also being a leader should not make you to see yourself as superior more than others, because it's these same people that putin the position you are occupying and they should be respected and catered for.***
***Finally he told the youth leader to always think about his members welfare and wellbeing first before his own and by so doing, he is projecting unity, peace and love amongst his members and the community at large.***
***After he finished talking to the youth leader, we turned to the youths of the community that were there and told them these;***
***Please everyone should learn to stay in peace and never allow the enemy to use them to cause problems and bring misfortunes to the community where he or she belonged to.***
***They should all learn to stay out of trouble and do not take laws in their hands, rather when such incident occur, they should try and go to the appropriate authority and make their complain and aggrevances known for a proper action and correction.***
***He thanked the police and other security agencies for their prompt action and calming of the situation that almost wanted to disrupt the peace and harmony of the community.***
***Finally both the party youth executives and the entire youth members of the party should shield their swords and lie on their swords for peace to reign in the community.***

Take the junk foods away now!
Hi everyone, welcome to this wonderful and amazing segment of food intake and the right information for the best food that your body maybe needing to function well. I know a lot of us here in Africa and other part of the world usually love eating good food and some of us as well eat junk foods to survive. I will be discussing more about junk food and how it's important that we try and take keen interest about foods that are cheap, affordable, nutritious and can replace junk foods that we have come to appreciate more which have really been of harm to our health and life.
**JUNK FOODS**
Junks foods are one of the most popular foods in Nigeria. Junk Foods are consumed daily both by the old and young. Junk foods have very low nutritional value and according to Merriam Webster dictionary, junk foods are foods that are not good for the health because, they contain high amounts of sugar and fats.
Many people eat junk food for convenience purposes. Junk foods are generally unhealthy but in my opinion, junk foods prepared in fast foods are better than locally made junk foods. Sadly, many people depend locally made junk foods like, bonce which are literally made with sugar, water, refined flour and fried with unhealthy oils.
I have observed that, in many places like tertiary institutions where junk foods are sold, some nutritious and healthy foods are also sold at relatively cheap prices. So, i decided to make a list of 5 healthy foods you can eat in place of junk foods.
**Here Are Five (5) Healthy Foods You Can Eat In Place Of Junk Foods.**
***1. Moi-Moi***: the primary ingredient for making moi-moi is beans which makes it very good for your health. Moi-Moi is also made with other healthy ingredients like, crayfish and with **#100 naira** you can buy a wrap of moi-moi.
***2. Boiled Maize:*** Boiled corn is a common sight in public places. Yellow corn has been proven to have a lot of protein which makes it suitable for people trying to lose weight. Also maize has a lot of fiber and other nutrients. With **#50-#70** **naira** you can buy a boiled or roasted corn.
***3. Beans And Roasted Plantain:*** Instead of buying junk foods why not opt for beans and roasted plantain. You can even decide to eat just beans or plantain. People who sell beans and plantain also sell potato and yam, so if you don't like beans you can go for yam or potato.
***4. Okpa:*** Okpa is a very common food in the South Eastern part of Nigeria. Okpa vendors are found in public places including tertiary institutions. Okpa is made with a special kind of nut called, Bambara nut. Nuts are very good for the health and okpa is far better than junk foods. With just **#100 naira** you will buy a wrap of okpa.
***5. Zobo***: Many people consume soft drinks when they are not at home. For example a lot of students consume soft drinks commonly known as minerals. Drinking too much minerals is very bad for your health because of the high level of sugar and preservatives it contains. So, instead of taking soft drink, drink zobo. Although, people who sell zobo add a lot of sugar to it, it is still better than soft drinks. Zobo has over 13 health benefits.
***In conclusion***, some sickness and terminal diseases we suffer in our old age are actually caused by the junk foods we take during our youth age and some careless and unhygienic foods and drinks we consume also contribute to these problems that surrounds us as people. For you to live a healthy life, you must surely find your way to good foods and healthy style of eating habit and taking of well nourished meals each passing day of your life. Because when you ignore these things and keep on eat anything that comes your way, definitely you are creating way for sickness to pin you down when grow old tomorrow.
Do all you can to avoid junk foods if you want to live long!

The wisdom of the heart!
I have been wondering the components that make up the heart of a human and the ideology of him that designed, created the heart and put it in man and other animals. Human beings and other lower animals that fill the earth have this special organ that makes them unique in their special ways. And inside this heart lies the engines that propel the body to function well both in human and in other animals on the planet earth. The heart produces and pumps blood to the whole body system thereby making sure that all the other organs of the body functions well, when the heart is weak, it affects other organs of the body and can short the entire body system down which may lead to death.
The heart also interprets, show and reacts to what the other organs of the body tries to dictate. When the eyes see what may seem to be good or not to be good to the eyes, weird or awkward and unacceptable, the heart will interpret it either in positive or negative way to the whole system, and this will go to the extent of affecting one's emotional, mental or even physical way of living through the way one thinks and behave. This can also been seen in other lower animals.
****THE MIND****
The mind also connects to the heart and this is the reason when something touches the heart, it affects the mind and can change the whole body system of the affected person. There is an interconnectivity between the heart and the mind in a human body. The mind is the invisible heart that we have but can't be seen. And that's where the wisdom lies. Right now, let's talk about the wisdom of the heart.
****THE WISDOM OF THE HEART****
The heart(mind) is the place where the voice of right and wrong speaks through. The success and failure of man begins from the heart(mind), what ever achievement or plan one has solely depend on how the heart projects it and wants it to be, and from there, comes the final success or failure of man. Some will always say that maturity is of the mind and heart not of physical looks and strength. The way you react to things that come your way everyday of your life is determined by the way your mind views it.
When you want to take some decisions that seem evil, the mind speaks truth to you about the action you want to take and the resultant effect of the decision. Even in your stubbornness and deafness to heed to the truth, the voice keeps speaking to you not to go on with your intentions. The heart(mind) is designed in form of conscience to speak the truth to you when ever you want to fall apart from the path of truth.
The burning desire of man starts from the heart (mind), and it's so important for a man to always listen to that voice of conscience speaking through him when ever he wants to begin a journey. The wisdom of the heart is so designed to always guide one's ability to make the right choices that will be of great benefit to him. When you have the ability to listen to it, it will surely give you the right feeling that you are on the right track.
Why not try today your best ability to do those things that will add value to your life, by making sure you give your heart a listen ear, because the wisdom of the heart will surely speak the words that will help you become a better person to yourself and your environ.
When you allow yourself to be nurtured through the wisdom of the heart in you, you will be found worthy by people around to always run to for any advice whatsoever that will build one's spirit in the right direction.
I want to wish all of us a very wonderful new month and also welcoming every on of us to this wonderful season of Christmas celebration. Let's make the best out of it as we enjoy the season.

Living is a process of sowing!
Oh yes! Let me sound it loud again, ****"LIVING IS A PROCESS OF SOWING".**** Maybe you do not know that life and all that we live for emanate from this sentence.
Before I continue with this article, I must not forget to thank these special persons that have stood by me and have kept supporting me even when I don't deserve their love, support and encouragement due to my inconsistencies of late in this platform as a result of unforeseen circumstances. Let me mention their names @ThisisGrace21, @ErdoV, and @TheRandomRewarder. These amazing people have stood by me and have shown me so much love. My love for you guys is unquantifiable and immeasurable. Thank you so much and I will not forget your kind gestures. And I will not forget also to thank you that have kept reading my works and have one way or the other contributed in my comment and like section so far. You are appreciated. I also encourage you guys to keep putting your ideas, knowledges and experiences down in form of articles so that we can learn from you to make the world a better place for us all.
***Lets continue.....***
The life and personal experiences a lot of people who have lived before us and died which we read in the history books and hear from story tales and even witnessed with our eyes have shown us that in life what ever you do today will surely speak for you tomorrow and as one of the verses of the holy book (bible) will always say " ***for what so ever a man sows, that he shall reap."*** With what one of the verses of the holy book said about life, this should be an eye opener to you and I that the process of living is something that one should be very careful about, for what ever decision, choice, and position you take today in your journey of life should be of great positive effect to you so as to brighten your tomorrow.
Most of the regrets we have today and misfortunes we have recorded so far are as a result of the type of decisions and choices we made yesterday that we shouldn't have made, when we fail to plan well and fail to do things accordingly and as at when due which will help us have a better ending, we have failed to sow the right seed which should have germinated, grown, flourished and be harvested tomorrow.
When you are wicked to yourself and to people around you, when you fail to see yourself in others and do things that will not bring happiness to your soul and to the next person beside you, the seed you are sowing at that time will surely not germinate good seed tomorrow.
When what comes in your mind all the time you are having a business dealings with the next person is to always cheat and dupe your business partner, definitely you will not make a positive head way in a long run.
When you don't develop yourself either in academics, business trade or any other platforms that will build you and make you successful tomorrow, definitely you have sown the seed of failure as a person in future. ***Remember an idle mind is a devil's advocate.***
Having a good and early planning in life and following it up to the end will surely yield a positive result and a happy ending tomorrow.
When you have the opportunity to assist and build lives around you and you fail to do that, in future during old age when your strength and bones will fail you, you will be left to suffer alone.
As a young girl and as a young boy who have refused to listen and obey the instructions of your parents and decided to follow bad associations and friends, later in life you will start to regret of the steps you made that never brought success rather than regrets to you in future.
As a husband who have failed to take good care of your wife and children and decides to spend more time and money outside your home with friends in bars and clubs with other girls, at that time you are sowing a seed that will germinate in future in the minds and hearts of your family as an irresponsible father and husband and definitely regrets will surely set in future by you when the family will turn their back on you and you will not have anybody to run to.
That wife and mother that will not take good care of her home and husband and refused to make sure that the children are well taken care of, she has already sown a seed that will surely germinate regrets in her life in the nearest future.
Generally life we are living is indeed a process of sowing and if we all fail to sow right and live a right life, surely we all will live in regrets and disappointment tomorrow, but this is actually the right time to make a change in the right direction for a successful future if we all should accept to make a positive change today!

Make a good name for yourself!
Do you have what it takes to be called a good person? Does your name speak good of you around your community, office, school or even amongst your peer groups, friends and family? You may be wondering why I started with these questions in this discussion of mine. Yes, it's of very importance that we all examine our lives and how we relate with our neighbors and the environs we find ourselves in.
Most of the problems we have come to experience in our daily lives amongst our fellow individuals and even within ourselves are associated with the way we understand life and living it. Do you know living happily ever and living unhappily ever also depend on how you value and see things and people around you. ***The way you want to be addressed tomorrow totally depends on how you carry yourself today.*** Most people have lost their self respects and self worth today because they refused to do those things that supposed to place them in that right places where their names and attitudes will speak good of them.
Some persons and group of persons who have been given opportunities and privileges to be in that position of higher authorities in their various societies and communities have totally lost their ways all because they allowed power and material things to change their main course and purposes for being in that position, they forgot that good name is better than gold and silver put together.
Some of us who are in the buying and selling circles, where you meet a lot of people who come to patronise your business, because you want to make excessive profit and gains, you begin to tell lies and try to sell fake products to your customers and render bad business transactions to people who trust in your words and judgements to do some buying and selling but not knowing you have compromised, they will not mind if what they did was good or not, all they are after is their own selfish gain and pocket fill, thereby forgetting that good names are better than riches and what money can buy.
What about families, where some blood related brothers and sisters in a family are not after things that will help the growth of the family positively, rather they will be thinking and doing things that will only favour their personal selves rather than things that will favour the entire family.
Even in our different churches, mosques and other spiritual and traditional denominations, we have seen a lot of highly respected spiritual heads and leaders of these gathering doing all their possible best to grab what ever thing their hands can reach to fill up their personal and selfish desires rather than saying the truth so that people who listens and trust In their teachings can change in their evil ways and begin to do good deeds. This is what we see in our everyday life experiences.
Don't you know that doing good and making sure that your attitude speaks good of your name is the key to a happy and satisfactory life? Everything in life is not about money, wealth, fame, affluence and popularity. Even in that little space of yours, you can make a difference and make your name count for you in a positive way by doing those things that will give your name a better mark more than gold and silver.
***Why not start today and make the right decisions to do those things that people will see even from a far about you and still recommend you for greater things.***
***Why not allow those things that will change that your name from good to bad to go their way so you can live happily after.***
***Why not make a good name for yourself by doing everything right without fear or favour. When those earthly rewards and gains are over, definitely you will need your goodness and good character to speak good of you at the other side of life.***

Just step in my shoes!
You have been giving me so much pressure to step up my games and make sure I finish these business deals we have with Mytech communications, Paul & Peter investments, Ojezz foundations, Franklin automobiles, Rafdesigns fashion designs and four other companies on my desk in just 12hrs sir. Please Sir, can you give me that opportunity and free hands to handle these deals?, also can we take it easy so we don't make mistakes and end up losing these deals with these companies because of rush?. Mr Ben the head operations manager pleaded with his boss Mr. Thomas the CEO and managing director of the company where he was working, but Mr. Thomas insisted and commanded him to make sure he finishes all the business deals as he instructed him within 12hrs or he considers his job with the his company terminated.
Because of the pressure on Mr. Ben the operations manager to seal up the deals on his desk, he ended up making mistakes with some of the business deals and lost huge amount of money for the company. When Mr. Thomas heard what happened, he got so annoyed and summoned Mr. Ben to his office to explain what happened why they had to lose such important business deals, when Mr. Ben came into the office, he kept mute and couldn't respond to the questions the boss was asking him, and because of what happened the Boss immediately gave him a termination letter stopping him from working with the company.
Mr. Ben out of anger replied to his boss and said, Sir, you have been in this company as the owner and running it for some years now and you have refused to allow your employees to make their suggestions and contributions to the best of their knowledges in order to add in the growth of this company, he continued to say that if you had listened to him when he pleaded with you to give him some time to handle these deals than rushing them, these losses and misfortunes would not have emerged, but out of your stubbornness and not giving a favourable playground for your staff to put in their own ideas and knowledges you have finally lost these great deals that would have fetched the company enough profits.
With due respect sir, ***why not step in my shoes for just a moment so you can handle these pressures coming on my desk and maybe let another person mount pressures the way you did earlier today sir and see if you will not make same mistake that I made today.*** After he finished replying his boss he hurriedly cleared his desk of his belongings and left the company premises in anger.
The managing director after given a second thought about what Mr. Ben said to him, decided to handle the office of the operations manager together with his own position being the CEO and managing director of his company. Business deals started coming in from left and right and it was now in his position to strike deals with these potential companies seeking for business transactions with his company, he was now faced with so much pressure at the office because he needed to meet up with these companies business proposal and requirements in order not to lose the deals with these companies.
Finally after so much pressures he could not meet up with all the requirements and needed documents for the deals to pull through, he ended up losing much more business deals than Mr Ben did when he was working with his company.
After the bad experience he had since he took up the position of Mr. Ben and being in his shoes as the operations manager, he had to call Mr. Ben back to work and apologized to him for everything and how he treated him, he then increased his monthly allowance and salary, also he said to him that he will allow him to proffer ideas and solutions which will bring positive change to the company. He now gave Mr. Ben a free hand to work for the betterment of the company.
From this story, this is what most people have been passing through in their various places of work, offices, homes and even within the circle of friends and families around the world. The ability to understand that it's important to give everybody that enabling environment to bring out their own very best and ideas in any area of life one finds him or herself is the best approach to a healthy and success society.
Do not always feel that you know everything and the ideas of the next person sitting beside you is not important. We all are important.
Always learn to give people that freedom to express themselves because when you do that, you may be giving that person the opportunity to bring out the best in him or her.
Delegation of duties and allowing people to handle their own work without interference is also a key to a successful output. You may come in when you know the person have tried all the possible best and failed then you can step in if you have a better ideas and solutions to the problem.
Finally, let's give each other that benefit of doubt to always trust that we will do our best when given the opportunity to.

I came visiting my parents yesterday after years of not seeing them in person due to the nature of my work, although we communicate most times on phone and on video calls but I never had the opportunity to be with them in person until yesterday. I was overwhelmed and almost dropping tears as I saw my one time most beautiful mother on earth gradually aging and getting weak with old age sickness and could barely see my face because her eyes were getting weak by the day, a great dancer of her time was not able to make her dancing moves efficiently because of her constant waist pain. Oh! my amazing mother that was so strong, young and very energetic when we were growing up under her care, who could multi-task herself at the same time to organise and arrange all the necessary things the house may be needing without having any ***"break in transmission"*** was now weak that I could feel it even from afar as I was coming into the house to meet her, she managed to walk to welcome me home after years of being away. A vibrant mother with a heart full of love and compassion for her children and anybody that comes around her.
One thing I could not forget to share in my story about her is her unchanging taste of her (ohà soup) one of our african native soup Igbo tribe to be precise, even in her old age, her meal was always the best of meal anyone could eat, her hands were still ever strong in making good and natural taste food, I almost finished 5 raps of fufu because I have really missed the tasty meal of my beloved mother.
After the meal, she was so excited to share with me all the stories and events that happened around the community while I was away. You know one thing about our aged parents, they love to share stories because it's part of what comes with old age, when my mother was young she barely have time to tell us stories because she was working hard to take care of us, but now due to old age, she kept in her memory all the events that happened and even remembered the ones that long happened when we were kids, she told me all the stories all through the night. I could feel her joy and excitement as she was busy smiling while narrating her stories.
I looked into her eyes and I saw old age gradually creeping on her and even in the sound of her voice, but in all of these changes that comes with nature, ***I could see an undying love and happiness in her heart because that was the oil that kept her heart and whole self alive till this moment.*** Even as her body and eyes were so weak and old age sickness gradually holding her down, she was so strong in her heart because ***the strength of a person comes from within.***
This morning as I was still enjoying the morning sleep after long night of discussion with her, I heard my mother knock on my room door as early as 5:20am this morning, my mother woke me up so we could pray together because that has been our every morning prayer ritual when we were small. Because of her age, she has a nanny who comes to the house to take care of the domestic chores in the house, my mother who likes to take care of herself and do things on her own was not able to due to her present health condition and old age.
As I was in my room, I began to remember all the things my mother used to do on her own and how she was running the house and merging it with her work when she was strong and vibrant and immediately tears began to roll down my cheek and it was dawn on me that ***my beautiful rose flower is gradually fading away.***
****LESSON TO KEEP IN THE HEART****
***Let me tell you this, no matter how beautiful, young, strong, rich, wealthy, energetic and good looking you may be today, tomorrow you must surely go down and gradually fade away, but only one thing will always stay strong and alive when you get to that old age, and that thing is love! That's why you have to always start in time to learn to love yourself and people you may meet in your life, when you love yourself, you will always do all you can to make yourself happy at all times, learn to appreciate any stage of life you find yourself most especially during old age, because that's the only way you can survive when the troubles that comes with old age appears.***
***All of us alive and young today will one day grow old and gradually fade away. So let's start today to do all we can to live a happy life by learning to love because that's the only way we can live happily after when everything must have left us.***

A broken burning candle!
I have asked myself this specific and direct question as to why I always keep pushing forward even in the most difficult moment of my life? Even when I have failed several times trying to make a positive difference out of my life. What could be the energy source behind my relentless never give up spirit?
I have gone through a lot of difficult moments and experiences both in positive and negative situations of life, I have also passed different test of faith, strength and also emotional, physical, mental, psychological, financial and other phase of human challenges life can throw at us as humans. In all of these winds that blows at us each passing day of our lives, we are still pushing and hoping that one day everything will be alright.
Most of us have been faced with so much difficult conditions, ugly situations and harsh challenges of life, and when you see and hear the level of what befalls them from afar you will begin to ask yourself and wonder if they will ever pull through from it, because of the level of what they are passing through at that moment. In some cases, the person watching may even lose faith and hope that they will not pull through from what they maybe passing through and decide to give up on the whole thing even before they give up on themselves but after a short while, the person you may be having in your mind that will not survive wakes up the next day victorious.
If you are so keen enough to watch the strength and persevering fighting spirit of the fox when it comes in open confrontation with one of the higher predators of the forest, they hardly give up to fight even as they are small in size, they still show so much strength and power, doing their best to win the battle that are before them.
Like the candle stick that is broken, even in the present state of being broken, when you light it, it still strive to show light for the user to see, it does not because it's broken refuses to do what it was meant to be, No!
***Today at the market I saw something that struck my attention and I was so baffled and surprised, I went to market to get some sewing materials for my customers and the market was filled up with a lot of people that came from far and near to do business and when I came close to a man holding some cloth materials, I didn't know he was totally blind, I was not seeing anything but he was carrying some cloth materials on his hands and was calling customers to patronise him.***
***I was so much touched in my heart and tears began to drop from my eyes. As I paused to really observe the blind man, he was not with anybody assisting him, Infact he was just calling for customers and asking anybody that comes close to him if they want to buy his materials he was holding in his hands, he didn't allow his present health condition of being physically disabled to stop him from surviving, it didn't make him to feel less of a human and even hate his own life and people around him.***
***You could see the relentless and persevering spirit in him never to give up no matter the challenges he maybe facing at that moment.*** The blind man I saw today was a typical example of a broken burning candle that I chose to give to my article today.
After what I saw today at the market, I was forced to say this word to myself;
**"I** ***do not have any reason whatsoever not to keep pushing forward to make a great difference."***
If the blind man could not give up on himself even when he was not seeing the people he was calling for to patronise him due to his health condition at that moment and still kept on doing his best to survive, then what will be your excuse as someone that is not physically challenged nor disabled not to make it in life.
We should all do our best never to allow anything whatsoever to get at us and prevent us from shinning and reaching to our desired hopes, dreams and aspirations in life just as the blind man I met today at the market never allowed his health condition to bring him down.
Thank you so much for staying with me all these period I was not online, I am strong now and will always do my best to educate us and inform all of us positively.

Being good is good enough!
Thank you so much for not leaving my page all these period I was not able to write due to unforeseen circumstances that came to my door step these few days. I have been sick with malaria and you know how this side of our country is, you have to always try and to treat malaria and when you don't do that, you are prone to fall sick because of mosquito bite.
Thank God that I am getting better now and I want to appreciate all of you that are still waiting patiently to go through my story. I know it's not easy to be sick and at the same time trying to meet up with you guys. You may be wondering why the energy and why going through the stress instead of resting until I get totally better before I can continue writing, but I tell you this, the burning desire in me to always come here and write something each day is because of **YOU**!.
****BEING GOOD IS GOOD ENOUGH****
The love I have received so far from this great family can not be measured with any measuring device, the kindness I have witnessed since I joined this family of great potentials and excellent people with amazing hearts is something one can not throw behind in a hurry, I remembered my first week on read.cash, I was so afraid that I might not really be seen nor heard since it was my first time, like some of the posts I saw before I joined, there was no comment to some of the posts even when the writers did their best, yet there was no comment nor tips, when I saw that, I became worried and afraid that I may experience the same thing if I join. but to my greatest surprise, my doubt and fear were bursted when I saw some comments and tips for the first week of my joining this amazing family, I couldn't believe it until I saw my big surprise tip so far in one of the articles I posted in less than a month I joined read.cash.
I couldn't believe it until I saw it happen to me and right there, my mindset changed and I began to see the overwhelming love in the hearts of people that are here as one family, ever since that day, I have been receiving and giving out to the family even in my little earning in order to support other people here who have been trying their best to give us what will help us be a better person to ourselves and to the society at large.
Yes I know I am still not strong enough to bring out my best and to continue writing due to my present health condition, I can not forget to appreciate your courage and confidence in your continuous writing and putting down knowledge for the world to read and get healed, most people may not really understand what great work you are doing here because they are not in the same place with you, but I tell you your words, knowledges, ideas, etc have gone beyond the walls of your hearts and the walls of your houses to the end and edges of the world reaching and touching lives positively.
There is no way you will not get your reward for being good to people either through your words of advice, encouragement, your finance support, prayers and any other way you may choose to follow. ***Ask yourself this question, is there any consolation for being good and nice? yes there is! if the man behind the RandomRewarder can be able to tip you with huge amount of BCH without knowing you from Adam, then you have to really know that being good is what the world need to survive.***
I do not have much to say today, because I have been down over a week now and recovering gradually, i know once I get better on my feet, nothing will ever make me drop my speed in giving out my best in this platform. I hope and pray today that you do your best to be nice and good to people you come across every day of your life. Don't give excuse not to do good and be good to people around you. The world need your goodness and kindness to survive!

I am not in competition with you!
This is where most of us if not all of us have gotten it so wrong with the turn out of even in our lives, always having it at the back of our minds that the next person beside us is competing with us and because of that we will do all within our powers to outshine that person even when the person we are competing is not aware of what is going on. We have even taken it to the level where all that comes to our mindset is how to step on the next person's life so he or she will fall off in order for us to stand tall and be recognised as the best. Have you ever asked yourself some questions and try to really think deep as regards to the final consolation that will be given to you for putting all these efforts in order to bring your neighbor down just for you to be at the top.
Now let me open your minds and hearts to the truth about the final consolation price we will get at the end of the unnecessary competition we chose to run with that person beside us. I tell you this, the final consolation price for all the efforts you may have put in order to be above your neighbors is nothing but ****REGRETS!.****
Yes regret will always be the final consolation price and this is what most people may not understand in life when they put all their arsenal to work just to take over the center stage when they are out there in an unnecessary competition with their neighbors, friends and colleagues.
****Disclaimer:**** *I am not in anyway attributing that being in a competition is totally wrong,* ***No!.*** *What this article is trying to explain to the audience is our existence as humans with one another, our life struggle with one another in trying to make a great and positive difference should not be based on competition. This is based on my personal opinion and thought.*
Have you ever wondered why the holy book(**bible**) said that everything in life is vanity? All the wealth, properties, riches, fame and affluence we strive to achieve in life are all vanity and will not be taken to the next life after death.
Some of us believe that there is this everlasting joy and satisfaction of heart after steping on other people's toes and lives all in a bit to win in life which they see as competition, but of a truth, that joy and satisfaction of heart they have always wished and hoped to get after their win will always turn to be far away from them when they eventually get to that relaxing stage.
You may have seen some retired aged people in your communities today who during their time they were working in some offices, stepped on other people's opportunities to take over their positions and after all the money they have made during their working years still end up being poor, regretting their mistakes and what they did in the past.
Now know this, we all were created on a different dates and times, we have our different purposes, aspirations, dreams, mission in life, etc. ***Why do we have to allow certain factors to determine our existence amongst ourselves? Why should we allow our selfish desires and wants turn us against each other that we will regret in future? Why do we have to leave that track of responsibility that fate has placed on our shoulders to start chasing shadows, and unnecessary things that will put us off and create enemity within ourselves and to our consciences?***
The best part of life is when you live above your worries, and that can not be achieved when you get into unnecessary competition with your neighbor, you can not achieve that when you always leave your own life surviving track to enter into another person's track just to finish your own race, you will not achieve that when you always see everything around you as competition and see yourself as the right winner in everything, you can not achieve that when everything you do each day is to trample on peoples opportunities and taking it by force.
You can and will always achieve that through seeing yourself in your neighbors, friends, colleagues,etc lives, you can achieve everlasting peace of mind and heart when you take life easy and when you open your heart to accept everything with love and work hard to earn what is rightfully yours without hurting that next person beside you.
That your friend made a positive great difference today in academics, finance, personality, etc, does not mean you are not doing your best as you should, everything in life is time and when your time comes, you shall definitely get what rightfully belong to you. Do not in any way see life struggle as a competition because, some people that went through that lane of seeing life as a competition are still regretting their actions and mistakes up till this moment I am writing this article.
Do your best today to make a positive difference by not taking what rightfully belong to others to yourself. I tell you today dear reader, I can not and will never be in a competition with you in order to make it in life, I will run in my own track of doing the right thing, staying focused and believing in myself and in the right time of breakthrough, because in that lies that everlasting fulfillment of purpose and utmost satisfaction of heart and peace of mind.

When love turns to hate!
***"All my experience with you since we started this relationship up till this moment have been sweet, with so much wonderful experience, memories and beautiful stories, but right now I don't think I am seeing that again after what you just did, you are not really that man I want to spend my life with anymore, you could allow yourself to be controlled by your friends to test the love I have shared with you for years, this shows you never loved me enough to trust me nor even believe in me. You have really made me lose all that I have worked for, my self respect and worth you have placed them all in the hands of my mockers to laugh at me. I regret ever giving you my heart, my love, my time and everything. I am tired of this relationship and everything, please I hate you Johnson! I am done with this relationship, please I am living you and this relationship, it's over between us okay!"*** These were her words as she was living Johnson's house with her bags in anger!
These words woke all the entire neighbor up including me this morning as one of my neighbors were having a serious quarrel with his girlfriend. All of us the neighbors gathered to find out what was going on between them and to find a way to settle their differences. All our efforts to calm the situation down was fruitless as they continued to shout at the top of their voices in anger and rage.
There is this saying that goes this way, ***when two persons that are so In-love shout at each other on top of their voices during a fight, it's assumed that their hearts are so miles away from hearing each other even when they are so close at a particular place and time with one another.*** It's obvious even when we try to separate them from further fight, they continued to exchange words with each other and before you knew it, the girlfriend packed her bags and left the house and swore never to have anything to do with the boyfriend again as long as she breaths.
These two couples were before now two love birds that always disturb all the neighborhood with their love play and romance every moment they are together in the building were all of us share different apartments as neighbors. They have dated ever since I packed into my apartment for three years now, they loved each other so much and somethings I get jealous of the both because of the way they loved and treasured each other any time I see them in the compound. There were envy of all in the compound and the boyfriend told me of the days we were discussing that he was making plans on taking the relationship to the next level which was making her his wife, I was so happy and wished him well, I was waiting patiently to receive a wedding invitation card from him any moment so we can dance, drink and celebrate with him.
After the girlfriend left, I called Johnson so we could discuss what really happened that will warrant this beautiful love life all of us have cherished and envied between them in the compound just crash within a twinkle of an eye? He started explaining that he caused the whole misfortune that befall him and his relationship, he continued that he allowed friends to deceive him into believing that his girlfriend was not who she told him to be, that he should try her out with some test to be sure if she was really In-love with him and if she is faithful to him, so they agreed to place a bet on her girlfriend without her knowing that she is been tested, he allowed his friends to plant a young man to start toasting her for friendship and before you knew what was going on the young man started disturbing her for friendship which she told the young man that she has a boyfriend she loved so much and can not cheat on him for any reason, but the young man insisted and kept on trying his luck on her.
Johnson said that his girlfriend came to him and complained about a certain young man disturbing her for friendship, instead he pretended that he was not aware of what was going on. The young man continued and eventually found his way to her heart with every opportunity he could grab in order to make her give him a chance for a date. Before you knew what was happening, the young man they planted to test her bridged the contract by opening up to his girlfriend and told her everything they planned right from the beginning, Immediately the girlfriend got so angry and confronted him to really get the truth from what the young man told her, and questioning Johnson her boyfriend , he admitted that the young man was saying the truth.
His girlfriend after hearing his explanation got angry more, she felt disappointed and betrayed by the one she loved with her whole self, she decided to end the relationship.
This incident got me thinking and I began to really think in this direction. Maybe I should say this as an advice to you reading this story.
***Never you allow your friends to put you off and push you to do things that you will live to regret later.***
***Why must you test your relationship and your partner? It's not necessary to do that, remember you are human and as human no one is perfect and you should not expect a perfect love from anyone.***
***Not everything that happens in your relationship that you need to share with friends, I tell you this you may not know who thinks good about you and your love life.***
***Do not expect much when you are in a relationship from your partner. He or she may have his or her own flaws.***
***Finally do not give room for third party to decide for you on how to run your relationship with your partner. Most failed relationships today have been attributed to this particular reason.***
I know you will learn from Johnson's love experience and never allow yourself to make such mistake tomorrow in your own relationship.

Life is short, so ginger yourself!
I have so much to share, so much experience to drop here for us to really learn from. It will not be out of context to discuss today about life and the need to make every effort to have a better life and have a memorable experience that will live with you when old age come knocking at the door of our lives.
I have heard a lot of personal stories of how people were not able to live up to expectations, responsibilities and their aspirations, also how some people were not able to attain that desired dreams in their lives before living the world.
I want to ask you this important question that you really have to think about. ***What is keeping you from getting to that point you have ever hoped, dreamt and desired for as you were growing up?.*** I know most people will give one answer or the other as to why they were not able to achieve and make their dreams a reality. No matter your reasons for not living up to your dreams, I believe those reasons are not important and good enough to withhold you from getting to that place you have wished to be in life.
Often times we allow certain things that are not so important to shift our focus from achieving those plans we may have nurtured in our hearts and minds to bring to reality. In some cases we allow our personal relationships with our parents, friends and relatives to affect us mentally, emotionally, physically and psychologically and when such situations arises, we so much lose focus and the spirit to keep fighting and pushing harder to achieve our dreams. It even gets more worst when it has to do with one having a problem with own self. If care is not taken, the person may not come out of such conditions if there is no help coming from people around.
Some of the failures, misfortunes, disappointments, etc we face everyday of our lives may have happened all because we gave room to fear, doubt, disbelieve in our potentials and the ability to give ourselves a push to make a positive difference with the little opportunity that may have been given to us through fate and chance. The worst thing that will ever happen to a person is to allow himself or herself to be overwhelmed by challenges and problems that comes in our way every day of our lives. The moment you allow your challenges to hold you down and prevent you from pushing ahead, you have already accepted defeat and there is nothing you will ever do to change the outcome. But if you hold your ground and believe that your ability to overcome is above every challenges and circumstances on your way, you are already a winner and before you know it, you have already won the battle.
No matter what you are already facing as a challenge to push forward to your greatness and dreams, once your mindset is filled with all the needed energy to win, you will surely pull through.
I know you may have heard about this words of wisdom which goes this way ***"the way you make your bed that's the way you will lie on it"***. Some will also say that ***"it's better to start in the morning to search for the missing black goat before nightfall".*** What this simply implies is nothing than doing your best to push yourself in the positive direction to make a better living with your life on time.
You do not need any body to take you by the hand to make your life a better one, all you really need is to tell yourself that you can achieve and have anything your heart desires, then put all efforts and arsenal to work without fear or doubt in your mind, be positive, be patience and believe in yourself even when it seems so tough and rough on the way, and within a short while, you will get result that will put smile on your face forever.
So my dear friend who is reading this right now, don't give up okay, remember that life is too short, you need to ginger yourself to achieve that success you have dreamt for.
Let me use this medium to thank you so much for not dropping on the way so far in this perilous time where everything in the world is sounding like a broken record, I urge you to always stay focused and try giving yourself a chance to make a positive difference in that environment, society and community you find yourself.

Short cuts makes long delay.
Have you noticed that when you take short cut to anything in life most especially when it has to do with acquiring wealth, riches, success, etc, without waiting for that right time, after getting to that success through short cut, you will end up losing it and start life afresh, this time it will take long period of time to achieve success again if you are lucky enough for a second chance.
Yes! It's true and I have really seen such case happen almost everyday of our lives. I will tell you a story about a young man in my neighborhood that went through that path of short cut to making wealth and eventually after acquiring all the money and properties, he ended up losing everything within a short period of time and up till this moment, the life condition he saw himself now is really something one can't comprehend. He is facing abject poverty and everything seem so difficult and nothing is connecting for him till this moment I am writing this article.
My mother will always say this to me, ***my son please calm down, no hurry in life, just take one step at a time.*** You may have heard some people say this to their love ones ***" please take it easy, everything will be alright and fall into place at the right time"***. There is truth in all of these words we always hear from our parents, loved ones and even from our friends when we seem to act or behave in a kind of way that seem not right.
Even from the beginning of the world creation, the first day God created the heavens and the earth, the day and night, then the second day he created the firmaments of the earth and after that other creations emerged, God in his all knowing ability and capabilities did not rush or created everything just in one day, he followed the sequence of time to make all things good and perfect. So therefore, it's really an awkward situation to see someone believing he or she will take the shortcut to success and expect to stay without having a repercussion in future.
Remember that what goes around surely comes around in life. ***Aww!*** I have even forgotten to tell you the story I said I will share with you when I started my story in the beginning.
****NOW MY STORY****.
I know of a person in my neighborhood that I will not like to mention his name in this article for personal reasons, after little time of struggling to survive after graduation from the university, had an opportunity to travel out of the country which he eventually did and few months of his travel, he made a lot of money that got a lot of people wondered and confused of his source of sudden riches and wealth. Immediately he returned back to Nigeria, he started living luxurious life and flamboyant lifestyle, after a short time, he began to lose all the finance, properties and eventually went bankrupt i.e, not having any money with him at all to take care of himself nor another person beside him.
Before his financial downfall, he was a strong and vibrant young man who graduated from university but was not happy with himself due to no job and no money coming in, so he couldn't have patience to wait and keep trying to push in a legitimate way to make it in life, he decided to join fast lane of young guys using internet to defraud people of their money, not long as he joined the business he traveled out of the country, stayed fee months and returned with lots of cash.
But all the money he made couldn't last more than three years everything vanished and life became so tough, rough and hard for him all because he didn't wait for his right time of success to come by, rather he chose to use short cut to make wealth which could not last him for a life time.
This is exactly what most of young people of our time around the world today are faced with, instead of having patience, believing in their selves and allowing their selves to follow the right way to success, having faith and positive mindset that one day they will meet their success box and everything will be alright, but no, they choose to follow short cut to success which will not give them that inner peace of mind at the end.
Why not take the decision now to remove your mindset and believe that there is no inner joy, fulfilment of purpose and success in following short cut to acquire success, all the people that followed this path of short cut to success in life have always regretted their actions. I urge you today to believe in yourself, believe in your hustle and believe in your dreams that one day as you continue to strive to change your world in a legitimate way, that soon your hustle and struggle in life will turn to success tomorrow.
Never choose short cuts to success because it makes long delay in life and the regrets after is overwhelming and unimaginable.
