Dealing With Addictions Let me start off by apologizing for my absence these past few days. Like always, it wasn't by choice, it was rather forced by the disruption of power. The power disruption was caused by a fire at the substation that serves my area, and a whole lot of other places in my state. The fire was quite huge, and for a developing country where the most little problem take time to deal with, I didn't need anyone to tell me this was going to take quite a long…

Some Painful Moments I was reading on nairaland.com when I came upon this thread, talking about some of the most painful things that can happen to us. These are things we hope and pray against, but life is full of uncertainties. Here are a few and my individual experiences and take on them. **Losing A Crucial Match** This one is something I've experienced twice in about the time period of a week. The first time was on Tuesday when the Nigeria National Team nicknamed 'Super…

Kind Of Frustrated Hello readizens😂. I got that from someone's post, don't remember who now, but it sounds catchy; readizens😅. I trust you've had a good business day, whatever your source of invoke might be. I haven't posted any articles in the last fourty eight hours and I've got a good reason for that, maybe not so good a reason but a reason nonetheless. I've really not be committed to much these past few days. All I've had to do has been read.cash and football. The past…

I Hope I Can Continue It's been a really rough period for me, this past weeks. So rough, I'm beginning to ask myself if some things are worth the trouble, and sadly chief among those, is read.cash. I've never made a secret of my purpose on this platform. Just like everyone here, I'm here for a number of reason with a scale of preference of course. My first purpose of been on this platform is and has always been to earn. But I've always also known that to earn on a platform…

It's Not A Sin To Be Rich ***Note: All images are from https://unsplash.com/photos/2rhz3Nuq12c*** There's a trend lately that's beginning to worry me. In the days of my parents, people were either respected for their moral values or disregarded for their lack of it and I like to think life was better. Somewhere along the way, the place of moral was gradually been taken over by wealth and affluence. In such a system, the rich were glorified and everybody aspired to be part of…

Walk Away!! One of the biggest story making the rounds in Nigeria media today is that of a very talented gospel singer who recently passed away or should I say was recently murdered. We are talking about a woman with so much potential, a blessed voice, with an amazing mastery of vocals, rhyme and rhythms. Her ability to use the words of her mouth to make a connection between one and the spirit was quite splendid, and all of those are now gone with her, to the land where…

Ageing Against Civilization Growing up, I was made to believe that there was so much wisdom embedded in old age. I could observe that people with white hair which symbolized the length of days or should I say years that has been spent on earth, were idolized and mostly consulted before things were done in most families or communities as the case may be. I was once told by an elder that words of old men and women should be treated like gold for they are hard to come by.…

Travel With Me I got this from @Kushyzee article, and seeing as I'm struggling to put together the original article I had planned, I decided to do this as well. I'm on a trip to one of those independent islands that aren't really a country but aren't really under any other country. Those british overseas territories kind of island. Let me say the Cayman Island, what would I choose? **Adventure or Relaxation** For me, this would actually depend on my state of mind and being…

SmartBCH Is Dying By the time smartBCH was been launched, I was still just a random student in one of Nigeria's foremost universities trying to make good grades both in academics and in character. By reason of being a full time student, had to depend on my parents for the bulk of all my expenses, and for those of us who have or are studying in a Nigerian university, you'll know it's never enough. By this time, all I knew about crypto was bitcoin, ethereum and litecoin. Fast…

Can't Do Without These In today's world where humans crave ease and comfort, we use different things to reduce the burden on us. As of today, we have so Many gadgets, techs, products and/or services that take care of different things for us. Some of us have become dependent on a lot of these things, and I'm not better. I was clearing my notification bar today when I read @King_Gozie article about things he can't live without. I thought I would answer for myself. So what are…

Shattered It was going to be another long day in court, though it didn't have to be. I still remember it like it was yesterday, the death of my colleague and friend. As I reversed my 2013 toyota camry from the parking lot, I started reliving it. It was a humid evening with quite a lot of cool breeze. We had been assigned to the Fowler case a week before and that's what we were on ever since and that was the reason John was riding with me that evening instead of going home,…

Travel With Me (Conclusion) This is a completion of the first part of the article 'Travel With Me'. You can find it here. https://read.cash/@Talon/travel-with-me-b36f18fa **Paragliding Or swimming** Given my adventurous spirit, if I were to travel for a vacation, I'd like to think I'll definitely go for paragliding rather than 'mundane' swimming. But that will depend on the efficiency of the health care industry of the place in question you know, just in case of "accidents'.…

Relationships In today's world, a lot of things are becoming a shadow of what they used to be. Recently we heard of the group of students who were selected to go to Dubai to represent their school in a competition. They went there and while their teachers had gone to bed, they gathered to play truth or dare that resulted in some of them engaging in sexual activities (that some married people aren't even good at). It's alarming and even become quite alarming when you realize…

A Three-Day Weekend I don't know really. But come to think of it, is it possible that someone is playing with time itself? If I didn't know better, I would totally say so, but maybe, just maybe, I don't know better, I just think so, like every other person of course. I know I sound insane, sort of, but you've got to understand that this sh*t is real. The average person will stop working on Friday evening/night, not to mention those whose work/job require them to turn up at…

A Three-Day Weekend (Conclusion) This is a continuation of my last article. You can find it here https://read.cash/@Talon/a-three-day-weekend-089251ec As a recap though, we all know how it is this days, that it almost seem like there's someone messing with time, who just fast forwards the time whenever it's weekend. Time seem to be extremely fast on weekends. You sleep on a Friday night and it seems the next time you wake up, it's monday. I know, the feeling isn't great.…

Redflags A time comes in our life when we have to decide who we want to spend the rest of it with. This is one of the hardest decisions you'll ever have to make, because it consequences are far-reaching and long lasting. One's choice of a life partner can lead to one living a happy life and fulfilling destiny, but if gotten wrong, it can totally ruins one's life. Hence, the choice of a life partner is not one that should is made in haste. It's important to be able to make…

Yours To Live! I've come across different types of people in this life and I have to say that some of them were very disappointing. Myself being highly introverted have spent quite a number of my years on earth observing people. The more I looked, the more I started to see that the human race is constantly evolving in respect to character and I just can't say if this evolution is for the better or not. Amongst the many types of people I have come across or just noticed out…
