Different Stages Of Interpersonal Relationships
**Stages Of Interpersonal Relationships**
1. Acquaintance
2. Build up
3. Continuation
4. Deterioration
5. Ending
Not all interpersonal relationships get to the last stage and it's very normal and there is nothing wrong with that. It just means the relationship was either mismanaged or not meant to be.
Successful interpersonal relationships get to the third stage (continuation). They last until death do us part. Others relationships? Not so much. Some bonds are available for a limited time only.
In these cases, the relationship will go through all five of Levinger’s stages. That means both parties will eventually part ways. This is super common in romantic entanglements. It’s also typical when there is a transition to a new workplace or you graduate from school.
It’s also normal for a relationship to not progress beyond the acquaintance stage. These are known as secondary interpersonal relationships.
Some common examples are:
neighbors
your fave barista
friends of friends
others you interact with on a semi-regular basis
You can exchange pleasantries like **Hello** and **Hi**, **how are you doing or faring** and oftentimes, it doesn’t go beyond this, and nothing evolves any further and remember that it is very okay and just normal.
**How Do Interpersonal Relationships Occur?**
Like I had earlier said from the definition or meaning of interpersonal relationship, it is something that can be developed over time or something that can be built either intentionally, consciously, or unconsciously. If you build it, interpersonal relationships would come.
There’s no denying it: Relationships require effort and no relationship is perfect. Conflict is bound to happen. Both sides have to work to maintain a positive connection. The most important thing you can do is maintain clear and open communication.
Solid communication doesn’t just create good moments. It also helps you get through the not-so-good ones. Build your relationships on the basis of talking and listening. This will help you work through issues and form stronger bonds.
**Also, keep in mind that;** The most important relationship you’ll ever have is with **yourself**. Take care of yourself and your feelings. It’s the only way to ensure a healthy relationship with others. If you don’t consider yourself important and take proper care of yourself, handling another person may be a difficult thing to do, and maintaining a relationship, in this case, becomes or seems impossible and I don’t think you want that that, do you? So first, take care of yourself and you will be able to keep and maintain a healthy and reliable interpersonal relationship.
**Important Relationship Habits**
There are many important relationship habits one should exhibit especially in maintaining, a good, strong, and healthy bond and relationship with others or the people around you and in your circle. I will list a few of them and I hope you find out more either through research or self-discovery.
1. Establish and maintain boundaries
This is very important and also very crucial. In every relationship, boundaries should be set and each party should respect each other’s boundaries and never cross the line.
2. Trust and Honesty
Be honest and trustworthy. Without trust, there is no relationship and any relationship not built on trust is bound to shake, or even crumble or crash so every bond of friendship or relationship should be trust-bound.
3. Listen to each other
A good relationship is one that has the interest of each other or one another at heart. One should learn to give a listening ear to either their friends or partners. Judge less and listen more, it really helps in strengthening the bond.
4. Respect
Who doesn’t love a relationship that there are so much respect and regard? It is not until you kneel down and worship your friends or partner before one can say you are respectful in a relationship. Like they say that actions speak louder than words, your form of respect should be seen in your actions and also felt with your words and speech, both work together for a better building of a relationship.
5. Feedback and constructive criticism
One who doesn’t like correction would find it difficult to keep or fix a problem in relationships when it arises. Be open to feedback and constructive criticism, it is for your good and the betterment of the relationship, not to destroy the relationship but to make the bond stronger.
Learn to manage your emotions, demands, and expectations. Put in an effort to make the relationship work well even when it seems everything is going wrong. And many other important habits.
Interpersonal relationships are essential to our overall health and happiness. Just remember to manage your expectations. You aren’t going to have a soul mate-level connection with everyone you meet. And that’s okay!. Each interpersonal relationship has something to offer and always be on the lookout for whatever it is or there are.
Thank you for visiting my post today.
Happy New Week;
Have a wonderful Day!

Interpersonal Relationship ~ What You Need To Know
Interpersonal Relationship
I am very excited to be writing this subject today. You know in my past years of blogging in different platforms, I have been given something priceless and that is the relationship I have with some people in all those platforms, the bond and everything is one thing I would never take for granted, and for this article, I will be talking about **INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP**
So briefly we will be looking at everything we know and ought to know about **interpersonal relationship** and at
**What Is Interpersonal Relationship**
The concept of interpersonal relationship involves social associations, connections, or affiliations between two or more people. Interpersonal relationships vary in their degree of intimacy or self-disclosure, but also in their duration, in their reciprocity, and in their power distribution, to name only a few dimensions.
Close relationships are sometimes called interpersonal relationships. The closest relationships are most often found with family and a small circle of best friends. Interpersonal relationships require the most effort to nurture and maintain. These are also the relationships that give you the most joy and satisfaction.
An interpersonal relationship is an association between two or more people that may range from fleeting to enduring. This association may be based on inference, love, solidarity, regular business interactions, or some other type of social commitment.
Interpersonal relationships are formed in the context of social, cultural, and other influences. The context can vary from family or kinship relations, friendship, marriage, relations with associates, work, clubs, neighborhoods, and places of worship. They may be regulated by law, custom, or mutual agreement, and are the basis of social groups and society as a whole.
A very common and simplest way to define what an interpersonal relationship is, aside from the long statement is the strong connections we feel with those closest to us. It could be with friends, colleagues, family members, or even romantic partners. And these relationships are built on mutual respect, trust, and loyalty and they can provide us with support, care, and even love.
An interpersonal relationship is something that everyone experiences and it's not something which other people are biased. It's an everyday thing. As we work with people, relate with them, automatically we are forming a relationship with them. We meet people every day and if not every day, from time to time in our lives, we keep meeting people and forming a bond with them. And this is what interpersonal relationship is, from the moment you are close to a person or some group of people, a bond is generated which for some, could last a lifetime.
**Types Of Interpersonal Relationship**
As we know that relationships are of different types, the same it is with interpersonal relationships. We don’t relate to everyone the same way, we relate with people differently and the bonds and relationships we have with all those people are different and of different stage.
So we will look at the different types or kinds of interpersonal relationships that we have.
**FAMILY**
source https://pixabay.com/photos/family-mother-daughter-outdoors-4447538/
The first and most important bond or relationship we have is our family. We don’t choose this relationship, it was given to us right from the first day we arrived on earth.
It is the most precious of them all and even though the family has their differences in regards to everything surrounding them, it is still the most important relationship ever.
Some family members have individual differences, but they are bonded in love, care. They support one another and always have one another’s back.
Family can include our parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, caregivers, and guardians. These are the first relationships we ever form. We often have close ties to family members. These bonds can last a lifetime. Sometimes we hold different values or ideals than family members do. And that’s OK! But it’s super important to maintain open and respectful communication. In some cases, personal differences can’t be overcome and the interpersonal relationships with family members might become strained or non-existent.
**FRIENDSHIP**

We all know the bible verse that says that ***some friends stick closer than a brother.*** That is what it feels when you meet the right kind of friends with like minds. The bond of friendship is one that should never be underestimated and it's something great.
Unlike a family bond or relationship, friendship is a bond in which you decide and choose for yourself. Before you are closely bonded to a person or with some group of person, it must have been your decision to do so and even if the bonding grew unconsciously, you will realize with time if its healthy to stay in it or rather if it's better to disconnect from it or leave.
Friendship is a complex interpersonal relationship. Complex in the sense that it cannot be explained or there is no formula for it since we meet different kinds of people and friends throughout your lifetime.
**ROMANTIC**
source https://pixabay.com/photos/romance-lovers-happy-man-woman-1934204/
This type of interpersonal relationship is defined in terms of the concepts of passion, intimacy, and commitment. Sometimes the mutual attraction evolves from **“I like you” to “I love you”**. Though in most cases this kind of relationship happens automatically without any bond of friendship while some would start from a normal bond of friendship before developing into a romantic relationship.
There are distinctive differences between friendship and romantic relationships. The love you have for your friends or how you feel for them differs and varies with that of romantic partners. You can totally love your friends but you aren’t in love with them, whereas it's not the same for anyone you are sexually or romantically attached to.
**WORK**
source https://pixabay.com/photos/people-girls-women-students-2557396/
Many people don’t often form any kind of interpersonal relationship in their place of work because they already configured their mind to be on the lookout for business and work and nothing else. Some are stuck with the **minding my business** slogan. They aren’t loose to form any bond with their coworkers.
But on the other hand, some are open and free-minded, they like associating and correlating with other people, and with time, they form a mutual relationship and a strong bond. You may see your coworkers more than you see your own family, so it’s normal to form strong bonds with your work peeps. Your shared experiences can create relationships that impact the workplace dynamic.
We don’t always agree with colleagues, even if they’re a friend, but it’s important to maintain respectful communication to ensure both work and friendship are valued.

My First Portrait Sketch On Medibang Sketchbook
So, guys, I had started learning to make digital sketches, I downloaded and explored different sketchbooks to see which is much easier for me to use. I tried the Autodesk sketchbook but I couldn't really use it even when it has a lot of features. I went ahead to try adobe sketchbook, Ibispaint X, and then I finally found Medibang sketchbook, and I think I love it cause I can understand and navigate better.
I have been trying different landscape sketches but today I decided to sketch a portrait. The model photo is my friend's, she was so surprised and happy at the same time to see me making a portrait of her 😁
I will show you the process and I must say, making a digital portrait sketch isn't really an easy task so I applaud all the amazing artists whose work I admire a lot.
I made my first portrait and I don't think it's really bad as it is my first trial.
I started with the outlines, I sketched out the outlines, I started by making it a little rough before deepening the lines and added more strokes.
Then I started filling in colors, first I chose a black color for her top, leaving her pendant, bracelet, and bangle white.
I filled in her skin color, the bangle, pendant, and bracelet.
Then I filled in the trouser, a little below her waist, her trouser was showing, so I filled in blue color.
I finished that step by painting her hair all black, filing the lips, the eyebrow and lashes, and also the eyeballs.
Then I changed the background color from white to sea green.
I didn't really like the first background color so I changed it to another color that is much deeper and better.
And that is all for the portrait sketch.
You know I didn't really do this for any reward, I just wanted to try something and I was so glad that my friend liked it when she saw it.
That was more than enough.
I hope you guys like it too, tell me what you think, and thanks for visiting my blog.

Marriage Celebration And Rites In Hausa Land
Hausa is one of the ethnic groups in Nigeria, the most populous and dominant group in northern Nigeria. The Hausa people are so strict with their marriage issues, such that a Hausa man and a woman are not supposed to be involved in any kind of sexual activities on or before their marriage. Unlike in most places which this isn’t really a problem so far there is an understanding between the couples and they both agree to whatever activity they wanna get involved in. Marriage is a hot topic for the Hausas and they get married at a very young age.
It is said and known that Marriage rites and requirements for the Hausa people are the simplest among all the ethnic groups in Nigeria. It is based on Islamic law otherwise known as the Sharia Law since the majority of the Hausa People are Muslim.
In the Hausa Tradition, the only thing the man provides is a house while the bride’s family will help furnish and set up the house for them. They so much believe and encourage making marriage rites less expensive for both families so as to prevent adultery in society.
MARRIAGE RITES FOR HAUSAS
Image https://loveandlifestyl.files.wordpress.com/2020/04/images-57353879114410735848..jpg?w=349
First thing first, the man and the woman intending to get married will both agree before any other proper rites begin and on this note, there is no physical contact, not even a handshake. This is why I said earlier that they are a little too strict with their marriage practice.
**Na Gani Ina So Stage**
Na Gani Ina So is the Hausa way of saying, I have seen and I love it. In this stage, the groom-to-be family makes arrangements and visits the bride-to-be family for the purpose of making their intentions about marrying their daughter known.
They don’t go there empty hand-handed just like in other ethnic groups. They go there with gifts and food ranging from kolanut, fruits, calabash, etc. The bride’s family would then decide if they accept their proposal to give out their daughter for marriage. Accepting the gifts brought by the groom’s family is an indication that the marriage proposal made has been accepted.
Image https://fabwoman.ng/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Hausa-Traditional-wedding-Food-FabWoman.jpg
Prior to this, both families must have made their own research to know and find out about the family and know If for sure they should carry on with the marriage process.
**Courting Stage**
This is when the intending couples are formally allowed to date and court each other so that they get to know each other. Though they are allowed to date and know each other, however a lot of restrictions are placed to avoid physical contact.
Normally in the Hausa Culture, it is a law that a man is not supposed or allowed to touch a woman except there are related and relatives don’t get married to each other that is why there are no restrictions between relatives.
The couple uses this period to get to know themselves better and if in the process of their courting relationship, they find out that they aren’t compatible then the marriage process is put to hold or better still terminated without any further process or activity but if they are both ok and compatible, the traditional marriage rites continue.
**Gaisuwa And Sarana Stage**
Gaisuwa in the Hausa language means greeting while Sarana means date fixing. Just as the name implies, in this stage, the date for the wedding ceremony is fixed alongside the bride's price.
The bride price is known as Sadaki in Hausa. The bride price of a Hausa bride is cheap, usually according to Islamic law. It has a minimum price which is usually a quarter kilogram of a gold piece (Rubu Dinar in Hausa).
However, the price could be higher depending on the wealth of the two families. After the price agreement is certain, the next stage is Sarana which is fixing a date for the wedding ceremony. At this stage, the man and woman can be said to be engaged. Still, no form of sexual contact.
And this stage is like a signal to other suitors and former friends of the bride. No other man comes for the woman again knowing that she is now engaged and to be married to someone else and all other friends of the bride back off.
**Wedding Ceremony (Aure)**
And this is the day that the bride and the groom are pronounced husband and wife. The wedding ceremony is known as Aure in Hausa and some people prefer to call it the wedding Fatiha.
On this day, the bride remains indoors with her friends and other older or elderly women. She is decorated with Lalle (Kunshi) which is known to other people as Hienna.
She is also made up and decorated with jewelry and this makes them even more beautiful.
Image https://netstorage-legit.akamaized.net/images/vllkyt6kptccqn03b.jpg?imwidth=1200&impolicy=default-amp
But on the other hand, the groom remains outside on the ground. The Sadaki (bride price or dowry) is being paid and declared to the hearing of everybody that a particular man came to marry a woman in the family of this or that and the amount of dowry is also mentioned.
The bride’s family will accept the dowry and the Imam (Islamic Leader) will pronounce the couple husband and wife. And this marks the beginning of the union between the man (husband) and the woman (wife).
Image https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR08M1gmAyKqAJW6kbgCq8GCmJz7iXPcuu-rQ&usqp=CAU
This is how the traditional marriage rites in Hausa land are performed or carried out. Though this isn’t the end of the wedding ceremony, it is not a must or a necessity but many other groups and cultures perform it and so does Hausa, and theirs is called Walimah which is known as the wedding reception.
**Wedding Reception (Walimah)**
The Hausa people call this stage Walimah which is the wedding reception where all the eating and drinking is done.
This is not the only purpose for this stage. In this stage, the married couples are being admonished and advised, after which they are prayed for.
And then families, relations and friends who came to celebrate with them would shower them with gifts and presents and then everyone departs after the last prayers are said for the married couples.
After everything has been said and done, in the evening, the bride’s friends would accompany her and other elderly women carrying all her belongings to her new home, her husband’s place, and also preferably, that night, the couple who now have the full right will finally come in contact with each other physically.
This is the Hausa’s Traditional Marriage System. The newly wedded bride is known as **Amarya** while the groom is known as **Ango**.

Serving A Purpose With Your Gadgets And Devices
I needed something to gear me up for the week while searching around the house, I bumped into an old phone package, quite presentable and it made me suddenly think about its utility and usage.
You know this phone has served the greatest purpose than it was initially purchased for.
I know a person who makes sure any gadget at all which one owns should be able to serve a purpose and generate income at the same time.
When I started my blogging journey it wasn't really a smooth one in the beginning. Being that I was so naive and new to all this crypto thing, coupled with the poor state of my gadget then.
Though my gadget was in a very poor state, at some point it became very faulty but I never gave up with all the encouragement I received. I suffered battery issues, low storage, faulty screen and so many more.
My first Crypto earnings was used to repair my faulty phone. Though it had helped a little but since the model wasn't really a good one, I still suffered hanging issues and more.
You may wanna know what model or brand of phone it was and why I even purchased it in the first place, while I would gladly answer that.
First of all the phone model is **Itel 1556** and no, I didn't purchase the phone.
Though I was still very young and a little naive but I don't think I would have ever purchased **Itel product** I don't know but I dislike it with passion but since the phone was purchased by my dad, I couldn't do anything about it.
**Gadget Serving A Purpose**
Though the initial purpose of the phone wasn't to be used for blogging or anything related but along the line that is what it had been used for.
The phone served a purpose for the first year and some months of its usage through blogging
The phone was able to generate enough to fund a PC, and two other phones.
So technically, the phone has been able to generate over a million within its two years of usage.
So what's my point and what am I driving at?
Your gadget should be able to serve a purpose before you either decide to give it out or sell it out.
Your Gadgets Should Generate More
If at the end of the day, your gadgets doesn't generate a commensurate amount of money to which it was purchased or even more then it meant you haven't well utilized its usage and that is an error.
Every gadget was developed to serve a purpose and anyone that doesn't utilize those purposes is technically misusing those gadgets which shouldn't be so.
We sucked the life out of this phone to be sure it served a purpose for which it was created or developed and also for which it was purchased.
Aside from being able to generate more income to purchase a PC and two other phones, the phone has gone through hell to serve other purposes and it has helped foot so many bills to which I am grateful for
And I am sure that all these new gadgets generated would live longer to also generate more and serve many purposes.
So you see that it doesn't matter the poor stage of your gadget or device, it can still work something out if you manage it properly.
Thank you for engaging in my pep talk and I hope that you utilize your devices and gadgets well no matter the state they are in, you never know how much they can do until you use them to accomplish those functions.
Still your;

Necesitaba algo para prepararme para la semana mientras buscaba en la casa, me encontré con un paquete de teléfono viejo, bastante presentable y de repente me hizo pensar en su utilidad y uso.
Usted sabe que este teléfono ha cumplido el mayor propósito para el que se compró inicialmente.
Conozco a una persona que se asegura de que cualquier dispositivo que uno posea pueda cumplir un propósito y generar ingresos al mismo tiempo.
Cuando comencé mi viaje de blogs no fue realmente fácil al principio. Siendo que era tan ingenuo y nuevo en todo esto de las criptomonedas, junto con el mal estado de mi dispositivo en ese momento.Aunque mi dispositivo estaba en muy mal estado, en algún momento se volvió muy defectuoso, pero nunca me di por vencido con todo el aliento que recibí. Sufrí problemas con la batería, poco almacenamiento, pantalla defectuosa y muchos más.
Mis primeras ganancias criptográficas se utilizaron para reparar mi teléfono defectuoso. Aunque había ayudado un poco, como el modelo no era realmente bueno, todavía sufría problemas de suspensión y más.
Es posible que desee saber qué modelo o marca de teléfono era y por qué lo compré en primer lugar, mientras que con mucho gusto respondería eso.En primer lugar, el modelo de teléfono es Itel 1556 y no, no compré el teléfono.
Aunque todavía era muy joven y un poco ingenuo, pero no creo que alguna vez hubiera comprado un producto de Itel, no lo sé, pero no me gusta con pasión, pero como mi papá compró el teléfono, no pude hacer nada
sobre eso.
**Gadget al servicio de un propósito**
Aunque el propósito inicial del teléfono no se usaba para blogs ni nada relacionado, en la línea para eso se había usado. El teléfono cumplió un propósito durante el primer año y algunos meses de su uso a través de blogs. El teléfono pudo generar lo suficiente para financiar una PC y otros dos teléfonos
Entonces, técnicamente, el teléfono ha podido generar más de un millón en sus dos años de uso.
Entonces, ¿cuál es mi punto y hacia dónde me dirijo?
Su dispositivo debería poder cumplir un propósito antes de que decida distribuirlo o venderlo.
Tus gadgets deberían generar más
Si al final del día, sus dispositivos no generan una cantidad de dinero proporcional a la que se compraron o incluso más, significa que no ha utilizado bien su uso y eso es un error.
Cada dispositivo fue desarrollado para cumplir un propósito y cualquiera que no utilice esos propósitos está técnicamente haciendo un mal uso de esos dispositivos, lo que no debería ser así.
Le chupamos la vida a este teléfono para asegurarnos de que cumpliera con el propósito para el que fue creado o desarrollado y también para el que fue comprado.
Además de poder generar más ingresos para comprar una PC y otros dos teléfonos, el teléfono ha pasado por un infierno para servir para otros propósitos y me ha ayudado a pagar tantas facturas por las que estoy agradecido.
Y estoy seguro de que todos estos nuevos gadgets generados vivirían más tiempo para generar también más y servirían para muchos propósitos.
Entonces verá que no importa el estado deficiente de su dispositivo o dispositivo, aún puede funcionar algo si lo administra correctamente.
Gracias por participar en mi charla de ánimo y espero que utilice bien sus dispositivos y dispositivos sin importar el estado en el que se encuentren, nunca se sabe cuánto pueden hacer hasta que los use para lograr esas funciones.
Aún eres tu;

Circumstantial Housewife? Anyone Can Be Established With Crypto
Some women or ladies have become housewives due to circumstances surrounding them and the condition they found themselves in and not because their original plan or aim was to be one. While some just choose to be perpetual housewives but notwithstanding why am I saying all this? Well, the major reason why I brought this up is to tell us how this can lead to most women diving into the crypto world.
As we all know that cryptocurrency is no more a hidden thing as the world keeps talking about it and every day it keeps evolving.
Most of the women who are learned yet stuck at home are finding ways to dive into the crypto space.
Some of them whose circumstances drove them home to stay as perpetual housewives are now seeing ways to rewrite their story and change their history from being a perpetual housewife to being a **Crypto mom** such a lovely name right? I would love my children and the world to address me as **Crypto Mom** someday, I think it sounds cool :)
I have read articles of ladies who resigned or quitted their jobs to stay at home and work for themselves even while taking care of the household.
The truth is, we are in the era where women are owing up to responsibilities, doing whatever they can to make sure they too can support the family and not depend on one body to do all the work.
Women are diving into the world of cryptocurrency and this is one thing that marks a great milestone even for the younger generation.
Gone are those days that society told the ladies where they belong and to those ignorant ones who thought a woman's place is in the kitchen.
From Perpetual Housewife To Crypto Mom
Like it or leave it, the world would only know your existence if you are an initiator.
Your story can only be best written by you and read by others as history.
And the way you wrote it is the way the society; the world would present it.
You can choose to be a pioneer and you be sure that others would follow right after. But until you step out and initiate an act of movement, you never know how much of the crowd you can drive.
How about changing the mindset of that housewife around you, regardless if she is with a lot of household responsibilities. She can still handle it and change her life alongside.
If you are here and you are doing well, why do you think your next neighbor can't?
And unless you try, you never know who can reset his or her mindset about this crypto stuff.
I had a friend whom I used to try to persuade to join me here but all my efforts seemed fruitless but I never stopped until last year, I promised myself not to disturb her anymore about it. She just has to come to the knowledge of how the world we live in is evolving and soon she would understand the need to join us here and realize how unreliable our fiat currency is.
Anyone Can Be Established With Cryptocurrency
It might seem impossible but it can become a dream come true but it will only need an optimistic mind to achieve this.
It doesn't matter who you are or what you think you can or cannot do, every successful person out there started from scratch.
They built their own ladder to the top, they didn't develop some kind of wings and fly to the position they are today.
There are many fields in the Crypto world one can dive into and establish his or herself. We have the investors, the traders, the content creators, etc.
Whichever one best fits one's kind of person then one can establish his or herself but first, they need to decide to belong and then take the necessary and required steps.
If at the end of this post, you find anything worth your time, then I am pleased but if not, I still wanna say thank you for stopping by.
SPANISH
Algunas mujeres o damas se han convertido en amas de casa debido a las circunstancias que las rodean y la condición en la que se encuentran y no porque su plan o objetivo original fuera ser uno.
Mientras que algunos simplemente eligen ser amas de casa perpetuas, pero ¿por qué estoy diciendo todo esto?
Bueno, la razón principal por la que mencioné esto es para decirnos cómo esto puede llevar a que la mayoría de las mujeres se sumerjan en el mundo de las criptomonedas.
Como todos sabemos, la criptomoneda ya no es una cosa oculta, ya que el mundo sigue hablando de ella y cada día sigue evolucionando.
La mayoría de las mujeres que han aprendido y están atrapadas en casa están encontrando formas de sumergirse en el espacio criptográfico.
Algunas de ellas, cuyas circunstancias las llevaron a casa para quedarse como amas de casa perpetuas, ahora están viendo formas de reescribir su historia y cambiar su historia de ser una ama de casa perpetua a ser una **madre criptográfica**, un nombre tan encantador, ¿verdad?
Me encantaría que mis hijos y el mundo se dirigieran a mí como **Crypto Mom** algún día, creo que suena genial :)
He leído artículos de mujeres que renunciaron o dejaron sus trabajos para quedarse en casa y trabajar por sí mismas incluso mientras se ocupaban de la casa.
La verdad es que estamos en una era en la que las mujeres deben asumir responsabilidades y hacer todo lo posible para asegurarse de que ellas también puedan mantener a la familia y no depender de un solo cuerpo para hacer todo el trabajo.
Las mujeres se están sumergiendo en el mundo de las criptomonedas y esto es algo que marca un gran hito incluso para las generaciones más jóvenes.
Atrás quedaron aquellos días en que la sociedad les decía a las damas a dónde pertenecen y a esos ignorantes que pensaban que el lugar de una mujer es la cocina.
De ama de casa perpetua a cripto mamá
Te guste o lo dejes, el mundo solo conocería tu existencia si eres un iniciador.
Su historia solo puede ser mejor escrita por usted y leída por otros como historia.
Y la forma en que lo escribiste es la forma en que la sociedad;
el mundo lo presentaría.
Puede elegir ser un pionero y estar seguro de que otros lo seguirán inmediatamente después.
Pero hasta que salga e inicie un acto de movimiento, nunca sabrá cuánta gente puede conducir.
¿Qué tal cambiar la mentalidad de esa ama de casa que te rodea, independientemente de si tiene muchas responsabilidades domésticas?
Ella todavía puede manejarlo y cambiar su vida al mismo tiempo.
Si estás aquí y te va bien, ¿por qué crees que tu próximo vecino no puede?
Y a menos que lo intente, nunca se sabe quién puede restablecer su forma de pensar sobre estas cosas criptográficas.
Tenía una amiga a la que solía tratar de persuadir para que se uniera a mí aquí, pero todos mis esfuerzos parecían infructuosos, pero nunca me detuve hasta el año pasado, me prometí no molestarla más por eso.
Ella solo tiene que llegar al conocimiento de cómo está evolucionando el mundo en el que vivimos y pronto comprenderá la necesidad de unirse a nosotros aquí y darse cuenta de lo poco confiable que es nuestra moneda fiduciaria.
Cualquiera puede establecerse con criptomoneda
Puede parecer imposible, pero puede convertirse en un sueño hecho realidad, pero solo se necesitará una mente optimista para lograrlo.
No importa quién sea usted o lo que crea que puede o no puede hacer, todas las personas exitosas comenzaron de cero.
Construyeron su propia escalera hasta la cima, no desarrollaron algún tipo de alas y volaron a la posición en la que están hoy.
Hay muchos campos en el mundo de las criptomonedas en los que uno puede sumergirse y establecerse.
Tenemos los inversores, los comerciantes, los creadores de contenido, etc.

Finding Aisha 2
If you missed the first episode, you can click HERE to read up. https://read.cash/@zellypearl/finding-aisha-a8690a17
Aisha was trapped inside the mirror for three days. When she arrived at the world beyond the mirror, she saw other younger girls of her age and even less who were trapped as well.
She didn't know her mission there but she was all out to find out. If she was also trapped there then it meant she was there for a purpose which she was going to find out what.
Aisha's parents were running a shelter skelter looking for Aisha all around the neighborhood. Her mom started blaming Aisha's class teacher for her daughter's disappearance. She told her Aisha got missing the night after which she came back earlier from school crying. The same day she accused Aisha of being and acting possessed.
She went to the school to hold her on the neck to return Aisha to her but the innocent class teacher knew nothing about Aisha's whereabout and she felt sympathy for the mother because she was so people.
***Where could Aisha have gone to? Why did she leave her behind and not say where she went to?***
Mrs. Beatrice left back home the first night after Aisha's disappearance. She spent the night in Aisha's room hoping she would show up where ever she was.
Now she regretted not paying closer attention to her daughter and what has been bothering her whenever she told her that she was hearing and seeing things.
***Could they have come for her daughter?***
***Where did they take her to?*** She wept all through the night still hoping that the next morning she would see her daughter running towards her.
Aisha on the other side was busy trying to find the truth about her and the other children that were in that part of the world.
She called Katherine, another girl of about her age one day and asked her what she was doing there and how she got there.
Katherine told Aisha that she too has been trapped there for months without any hope of returning home. Katherine started crying, telling Aisha how much she misses her mother and little sister.
Katherine is Eleven years old and has a little sister of about 3 years old. She misses her sister and her mom so very much.
Aisha patted her and told her not to worry that they would escape from there. She doesn't know exactly how they were gonna do it but she promised Katherine. She reassured her everything was going to be fine and nothing would happen to them
She also asked if Katherine have been hearing strange voices as well. Katherine said she heard voices since when she was three years old but the problem was that no one believed her not even her mom so she stopped telling her mom about the strange voices she has been hearing until one night when she was tempted to follow the voice's instruction and was swallowed up by the mirror which led her to where she found herself now.
Aisha told her the same thing happened to her. She told her how her class teacher said she was possessed because she told the whole class about hearing strange voices. And how she too heard the voice that night and was also trapped
This is when Aisha figured out that all this was a trap to keep the children locked up forever from their parents.
The strange voices were a trap, they manipulate the minds of these innocent children and make them see things they shouldn't be able to see for a normal child.
And the images they saw in the mirror struggling in their body are a way to draw their attention and make them curious to know why it was so. Again she promised Katherine that they would get out of that place and they weren't going to do it alone but with all the other kids.
Being that Katherine has been there for some months, she knew and spoke to some of the other kids. She also knew some secret places and passages around the place. Aisha told her to tell her all about these secret places and passages. Though she didn't want to at first cause she was afraid but Aisha asked her to trust her. If she wanted them to escape from there then there was something she got to have done and that is telling her everything she knows about the place.
Katherine told Aisha all she knew about the world there were. She also brought the other kids to Aisha who also shared their stories one after the other and all were similar to what Aisha and Katherine also went through.
Aisha promised to get the kids out of that place and she was going to need their collective efforts to make that happen. She told them that after three days of her stay there, all of them are going to leave and never come back.
The three days she wanted to use to make plans concerning their escape. Aisha was a smart girl and she was an outstanding kid as well. She spends three days making inquiries and drawing plans for their escape.
On the third day, Aisha told them that their escape plan was all ready and it was only time for implementation. She told all the other kids what they needed to do and where they are to be positioned at the time of escape while she and Katherine would look out for the guard.
**Time Of Operation**
When it was time, the other kids did exactly as they were told to while Katherine and Aisha were out to get the two guards positioned at the passage or entrance leading to the outside world. Both Aisha and Katherine grabbed a heavy iron and knocked out the two guards.
And then they signaled the other kids to move forward. They did as they were told, one after the other they all tiptoed and passed the entrance to the other side.
The interesting part is that each kid that passed through that entrance found his or herself in their room just the same way they left, every one of them.
When all the kids left and it was remaining just Aisha and Katherine, they both cried and hugged each other promising to look for each other when they get home to the other world. Katherine thanked Aisha for showing up for them and saving all the children that were trapped. They both waved goodbye and walked past the entrance.
Aisha returned to her room. When she got home, her mom was fast asleep on her bed, she didn't wanna disturb her so she let her sleep while she slept beside her. When Mrs. Beatrice woke up the next morning and saw her daughter, she cried and hugged her. She asked her numerous questions, but Aisha didn't know where to start with the answers so she only returned her mother's hug and promised never to scare her like that again.
When Aisha was settled, she told her mom everything that happened. Mrs. Beatrice was thankful that her daughter was back and safe, she also applauded her for her bravery.

Finding Aisha
Little Aisha never knew what was wrong with her until she turned 10 years old. She knew she wasn't like every normal girl and she has always questioned her nature.
When Aisha was 5 years old she told her mom she could hear strange voices but she didn't know where there were coming from. Being a little girl she was always afraid and frightened. Each time it happened she runs to her mother crying but the mom couldn't do anything about what little Aisha was going through, so she would only pat her to sleep.
She grew up hearing strange voices and seeing weird things.
It got to a point she could no longer tell her parents about it especially after turning 10 years old.
She believed she was capable at that age to handle anything on her own.
Little Aisha has always been an outstanding girl, independent and outspoken.
She doesn't like mingling with people her age and at 10 she was already looking ripe with all the females part fully developed.
The only difference between a 15-year-old girl and a 10-year-old Aisha was in the facial looks.
She still had a baby face and this is how she was easily identified as a small girl regardless of all the body development.
Aisha called her mom one day from school and told her she wanna go back home. The mother didn't understand why she wanted to come back home when it was just noon. Aisha's class dismisses by 3 pm because of the extra classes she attends.
When Aisha's mom got to the school, Aisha was already waiting for her outside the school compound.
Mrs. Beatrice asked her what happened and why she called at that hour, she wanted to know if she was feeling ill or something but all Aisha said to her mom was that she should take her out of the school premises.
When they got home, Aisha's class teacher called Mrs. Beatrice, Aisha's mom, and told her what happened in the classroom.
She said Aisha was acting possessed and scaring the other kids.
She couldn't understand exactly what the class teacher was talking about so she called Aisha to ask her about the incident but little Aisha remained silent and not saying anything.
She ran back to her room sobbing.
She laid on her bed for about an hour sobbing. Suddenly she starting hearing strange voices again. The last time she heard those strange voices was when she 7 years old, now it was coming back but this time she wasn't frightened, she was ready to know what was going on with her, why she seemed different from the rest, why could she see and hear things other normal kids couldn't.
She wanted answers to all the questions in her mind and the only way she knew she could get answers was if she spoke to those voices directly and not be afraid of them. She was willing to take the risk.
She got up from her bed, dried her eyes, and listened carefully to the voices.
When everywhere was calm, the voice spoke again to her with echoes. It has been calling her name the whole time **A-I-S-H-A**...
The voice was that of one person but with different echoes and resonance. Perhaps the same voice had been speaking to her since she was younger but she was too afraid to pay attention.
**Aisha Aisha**, the voice spoke to her again and she heard clearly.
Who are you? Aisha asked.
Though she was scared a little but she needed to know what was happening so she rose from her bed and stood still.
The voice told her to look into the mirror of her room. She did exactly what she was told to.
Little Aisha saw an image of a lady trampled inside a little child's body.
She walked closer to the mirror to have a proper look at the two conjoined images in the mirror. When she got closer she couldn't believe what she saw, immediately she stretched forth her hands to touch the mirror, she was trapped and the mirror swallowed her up.

Your Earning Ability Determines Your Financial Assets
You think it's so wrong when some people are a jack of all trades?
The answer is a big **NO**
That you try everything doesn't make you a scalar quantity, it only opens doors to discover what your earning ability is.
You might likely do well in a particular field yet it's not really profitable, seek something else. No law says you can't do that.
**Your Earning Ability?**
Your ability to earn is what would determine your financial assets.
What you do to regenerate income is what you can place your assets on.
People have different kinds of earning ability.
Some earn through their songs, music.
A good number earn from their writings or articles.
Another group earns from their artworks.
Everyone has their earning ability either one, two, or even more.
No one is limited to only one ability that is why you see people trying as many jobs or work as they can provide it would regenerate income.
How Does Your Earning Ability Determine Your Financial Asset?
A property isn't yours except it is yours
You can't own a car that isn't registered in your name neither can you claim your ownership of a house or company not established under your name. It is not possible.
Your earning ability is what will determine your financial assets and by this I mean, whatever assets you place your hands on or is registered in your name, shows that a price was paid for it and that price was only possible as a result of your ability to earn.
It is because you invested in one thing or the other that generated more income and yielded more profit for whatever financial assets you own.
Now I will ask you, what is (are) your earning ability(s)?
In other words, What is (are) your selling point(s)?
Are you utilizing your ability well in order for it to fetch you an asset later on?
Make your abilities sell now and you will have those assets as a remembrance someday.
.
.
SPANISH
¿Crees que está tan mal cuando algunas personas son un experto en todos los oficios?
La respuesta es un gran **NO**
Que pruebes todo no te convierte en una cantidad escalar, solo abre puertas para descubrir cuál es tu capacidad de ganar dinero.
Es probable que le vaya bien en un campo en particular, pero no es realmente rentable, busque otra cosa.
Ninguna ley dice que no se puede hacer eso.
**¿Tu habilidad para ganar dinero?**
Su capacidad de ganar es lo que determinaría sus activos financieros.
Lo que hace para generar ingresos es en lo que puede colocar sus activos.
Las personas tienen diferentes tipos de capacidad de generar ingresos.
Algunos ganan a través de sus canciones, música.
Un buen número gana con sus escritos o artículos.
Otro grupo gana con sus obras de arte.
Todo el mundo tiene su capacidad de ganar uno, dos o incluso más.
Nadie está limitado a una sola habilidad, es por eso que se ve a la gente intentando tantos trabajos o trabajar como pueden proporcionar, lo que generaría ingresos.
¿Cómo determina su capacidad de generar ingresos su activo financiero?
Una propiedad no es tuya, excepto que es tuya
No puede poseer un automóvil que no esté registrado a su nombre ni puede reclamar la propiedad de una casa o empresa que no esté establecida a su nombre.
No es posible.
Su capacidad de generar ingresos es lo que determinará sus activos financieros y con esto quiero decir, cualquier activo que coloque en sus manos o que esté registrado a su nombre, muestra que se pagó un precio por él y ese precio solo fue posible como resultado de su capacidad.
ganar.
Es porque invirtió en una cosa u otra que generó más ingresos y produjo más ganancias para los activos financieros que posee.
Ahora le preguntaré, ¿cuál es (son) su (s) capacidad (es) de ingresos?
En otras palabras, ¿Cuáles son sus puntos de venta?
¿Está utilizando bien su habilidad para que pueda traerle un activo más adelante?
Haga que sus habilidades se vendan ahora y algún día tendrá esos activos como recuerdo.

Scathy ~ Fictional
**Hell?**
No! That's the last place to dream of.
I can't imagine myself going there after experiencing such a harsh summer.
***Calm down Sara you aren't going there, it's just sex, there is no harm in having sex once or even twice.***
No Dan, there is every harm in it, how can you tell me there is no harm in defiling my body?
What if I get pregnant? What will I tell my parents?
What if God never forgives me for this sin?
And most of all, I can't go to hell because of this.
I am scared, scared for my life, besides I never told you I would sleep with you when I accepted your proposal as your girlfriend.
Dan, please tell me this isn't what you go around the campus doing with all the girls you have asked out since I knew you.
Do you ask them for sex immediately after they accept you?
It's just a week Dan, just a week and you are already asking for the impossible.
I can't do this, I won't do it no matter what you say to me.
***Let's call it off***....Dan cut in.
Wait what? You are breaking up with me? Simply because I didn't give in to your demands?
Wow, Dan! Just wow, you know what? I am better off without you.
I can't believe this, *Sara picked her handbag and head towards the door.*
***If She walks out that door, I will become a mockery to my friends, I promised them I was going to get her to my bed.***
***What do I do? What if I rape her? will I be able to live with the traumas after what?***
***I think I can deal with that later on.***
.
.
Dan grabbed Sara from her waist before she could reach the door, pushed her to the bed, and had his way through her entire body, like a vicious beast, he devoured her.
All Sara did was cry and scream until she passed out yet Dan didn't stop, until his last breath, he finally let out and got off her.
When Sara finally regain consciousness, she felt dirty and bitter. She couldn't control the tears rolling down her cheeks.
***What has she gotten herself into?***
***What will she do now? Dan has finally shown her what truly he is.***
***How will she tell her mom about this?***
***What will happen if Dan's action made her become a mother, she couldn't let that happen.***
***She was so bitter with numerous thoughts running through her head.***
.
.
You are a monster, Dan.
Yes, I am, Dan responded.
I can't believe I accepted you in the first place, that is the worst mistake of my life and I live to regret it.
No need to regret it, babe, I am sure you enjoyed the ride.
You are a beast, enjoy? Did you just take advantage of me and call it ***enjoyment?***
Now I know the demon you are and I swear to you that your life has been cursed already.
Sara said all this amidst the tears and bitterness.
She couldn't go back home the night after the occurrence.
She spent her night on a bridge where she wanted to commit suicide.
She didn't think she could ever face her parents ever again after what happened to her.
What about God? Will he ever forgive her?
Why didn't she follow the signs when she saw them?
She played blind and it resulted in this.
She roamed the streets for days and still couldn't go home.
She couldn't contact any of her friends or relative.
She wandered alone without water or food.
And when she couldn't take it any longer, she gave up the ghost.
Her body was found and discovered four days later.
The news got to her parents that were busy searching the hook and cranny of the city for her.
They couldn't forgive themselves for not properly looking into the welfare of their daughter
They prayed and sought God's forgiveness.
And later took the remains of Sara to give her a befitting burial.
A year later, Dan was arrested for sexual assault and sentenced to life imprisonment.
He paid the price of all the crimes he has ever committed in his life.

How To Make Wall Hanging Using Wool
Hello everyone!
It's a wonderful new week! I am certain this week is going to be a great one.
Today I am presenting this wall hanging ornament.
It's been a while I did any needlework.
So today u decided to do something and here is what I came up with.
Check out the process below.
Materials
Wool (Red and White)
Thread
Needle
Carton
Razor
Pen
scissor
Processes and Steps
First I measured out a circle using an open container and then I carved it out with a scissor and razor
I then cut a small piece of red wool and sew it around the open circle carton I carved out earlier.
Then I continued the same process with white wool till it covered up the carton, such that it wasn't visible again.
After that, I wrapped a part of the wools (white and red) on my palms to the desired amount I needed then I cut it out and tied it up in the center.
After tiring it up, I cut out the edges and made it spread out, and trimmed it well to make the edges smooth.
I tied the ropes on the round figure and leave them hanging.
Then I tied the last one in the center.
Side shot of the previous process.
And this is the final shot of the process.
I did a little needlework today and I hope you like it.
See you all next time!.
Making A Face Cap
Happy Thursday to you all.
Today I made a simple face cap using paper still and I will show you all the steps and procedures.
I am sure we are already used to the materials that I use in most of my works but I will still share the materials in case anyone wants to try.
Materials Used
Paper
Gum
Pen
Ruler
Scissor
First you measure and draw out this shape using ruler and pen. Then you carve and cut it out using scissor.
Pick the two ends and gum them together by applying at both ends
Measure and cut the face cover.
Then you draw and carve it out.
Pick the edges of each carved paper, apply gum and stick it all up.
Repeat this for all six edges.
Measure and cut out a small round ⚪ paper and stick it to the topmost part of the cap using the gum.
Then you apply gum to the cap cover and stick it to the body of the cap.
Making it form the face cap.
Here is the final result after doing everything.
And here is another shot.
That is all for making a face cap using paper. I hope you like it.
See you at my next artwork.!
Have a lovely day!

.
.
Celine got home feeling indifferent about the discussion she had with her mom. She tried everything she could to keep it off her mind so that she won’t be brainwashed in any way.
It wasn’t that easy, I mean it’s not easy to forget the conversation you had especially if it came from the one you loved. Celine loved her mom so much as if she was the only thing she had in the world.
And her mom’s love for her was almost the same or even more. She is the only child and it feels as if the love of ten other siblings were all showered on her.
She is the best thing that ever happened to her parent as such they don’t take her for granted.
Celine reminisced the words her mom said to her, ***Jeff is nice and decent*** what was her mom really insinuating? Could it be that mom likes Jeff a lot for her?
She suddenly remembered the fun and nice time she had and spent with Jeff. The series of surprises and dates. How Jeff usually check up on her to know how she was faring. How he surprises her every now and then. How they study together and then drove back home together.
She remembered the first time she met Jeff in the Library looking so serious and handsome that she couldn’t help but blush a bit. How Jeff caught her staring that she lost her balance. (how silly of her to lose her balance just because some handsome guy returned her gaze lol)
She smiled at the thought of those memories but she suddenly snapped out of it.
She needed to call herself back and pulled herself together.
Early the next morning, Celine got an urgent call asking her to meet up as quickly as possible. Celine didn’t know what or who the call was from, but all she knew was that she had to hurry to the location she was given. She was somewhat scared that she started praying while on her way down there.
When she arrived at the location, she walked into the office and spoke with the receptionist. She was asked to settle for some minutes that she will be attended to.
She sat down while still contemplating what was going on. She was lost but she had to get hold of and see where everything was leading to.
Hello Miss Celine? You are up! She was lost in thoughts when the receptionist called her attention that she was needed.
**Miss Celine!** ***Miss Celine your turn, please.***
*Oh, thank you very much, Ma, so sorry*.
***It’s okay, get inside.***
When Celine got inside the office, she was offered a seat to sit. She was still feeling nervous and awkward and her fingers were displaying it. Everything is fine Miss Celine, relax. I know it was too sudden for you to have received a call this morning asking you to come and you hurried down here without a second thought…***Actually Sir,*** Celine cut in. I am not aware neither do I have any idea what I am doing here or why I am even here. Don’t worry Miss Celine you will soon find out.
You see while going through our old files, we happen to see some outstanding files and we had to set them aside for a careful check-up. Your application file was one of those files. **Application files?** Celine had forgotten all about the application or whatsoever. She didn’t even recognize the company again because it was far back when she just returned from school that she applied for a job in the company but for some reason, she was rejected so she had to go search other companies and places for the Job. After several months of walking from one company and office to another, she decided to accept the role of a secretary in the bank she was currently working at.
Yes, Celine, we saw your file among those files and the funny thing is that you were appointed and given the job but then why are you not here or why are you not working here?
Sir, you mean I was offered the job to work here? Gracious Lord! I had no knowledge about this.
I was asked to return after the day I was interviewed and I submitted my application. I came back only to be disappointed that I wasn’t employed so I had to go elsewhere and search for the job. *Do you mean this Miss Celine?* ***Yes Sir, 100%.***
Well, so were you employed somewhere else? Are you currently working?
Yes, Sir, I am currently working as a secretary in a bank. No company wanted to employ me then so rather than waiting and lingering, I had to set out for something else and that was the work of a secretary.
I see it wasn’t a bad idea at all. So would you mind reconsidering this job? Or are you okay with your present job? I will think about this Sir because right now I am very confused. Oh sure, Miss Celine. You only have two days to be done with your thinking or else we will give it out to someone else. Alright Sir, thank you very much. You have welcomed Miss Celine, have a wonderful day!.
Three days later, Celine was given her job back, she had used the two days assigned to her to settle and clarify things with the bank manager and her fellow colleagues at her previous workplace. She was so excited about the sudden restoration of her missed job, she called her mom and told her about the good news. She never taught her prayers could be answered in a flash. Just when she was in a state of a dilemma concerning the sudden engagement, God decided to make a way for her to speedily fulfill and accomplish the mission she set out to accomplish.
Her new job wasn’t a guarantee of that getting done but at least it was a step closer to what she dreamt and wished for.
Now she is working as a manager in a textiles and ceramics company which income was three times what she used to receive as a bank secretary.
Celine took her work seriously as she usually does, she goes there earlier than every other person, not minding that she was the manager. She set a good example and soon she was loved by so many.
A few months later, after the retirement of the acting director, Celine got promoted to take up the vacant position as the direction of the company.
Celine’s joy knew no bound, before she knew it her bank account was weighted. She started doing her personal project with her salary and the money she was getting. She expanded her mom’s boutique and divided it into sections. They had the clothes section, the shoes, the bags, and the accessories sections. It became a renounce and known boutique across the city. Her dad's business started booming even while he retired. They moved out of their old house and rented it out.
Celine became very wealthy and still very humble and meek. Her wealth didn’t make her to suddenly become rude, impolite, and disrespectful. She was loved and admired by all.
She did charity work with most of the riches she had, offered and donated to the orphanages and motherless babies home, she helped the less privileged and God blessed the more because of her cheerfulness and generosity.
One afternoon, Celine had a call in her office that a woman was asking to see her. The woman came uninvited and without an appointment. She was curious about who it could be so she asked that she was permitted in. Lo and behold it was Jeff’s mom.
Look who we have here. You are very welcome Ma. You may have a seat, please.
Thank you, Celine. You know I just returned from the state and I have been hearing about your good deeds so I decided to take a stroll and come see for myself.
Well, here we are, Celine responded, isn’t God just wonderful? I am so glad you decided to come to see for yourself what God can actually do. He can change even the poorest man into a wealthy man. He does wonders.
But you know what Ma, the interesting part is that I wasn’t poor, no, my parent were not poor yet you treated me like a piece of rag simply because I didn’t meet the standard of what you call wealth and riches.
But I want to remind you that riches, wealth is not all that makes a man.
Yes I did love your son and I still do but I had to pause for a little while and acquire the things you have seen me acquire today by the grace of God.
Yes, I have a new name, my family status has been changed forever, thanks to you.
Thanks for acting like wealth and riches were everything to you and helping me on this mission of proving you all wrong. Wealth doesn’t make a man neither does it make one any better. Yes, I am rich now, very wealthy even more than you are if I am not mistaken, but I still retain my dignity, I still honor and respect those whom honor and respect are due. I am the same Celine and I still respect you very much even after everything you did to me.
You are the mother to the man I love very much and will be getting married in a few weeks.
***Wait ! what?*** Samantha suddenly cut in when she heard about marriage.
Yes Ma, our engagement got postponed cause of the mission I was on. I have already accomplished that mission thanks to you and I will be getting married to the man I love. I guess now there won’t be any more issues concerning marrying your son.
If you would excuse me Ma, I have some work on my desk to finish within the next one hour. It was a pleasant visit, thank you for dropping by.
After a few months, Celine and Jeff got married to each other and their family was blessed with a daughter and a son.
Mrs. Samantha became a changed person after realizing that money wasn’t everything nor was it what made a person any better than another.
This was a lesson, Miss Celine, now Mrs, Celine Jeff taught her.
**THE END!**

The Engagement
Click if you missed THE BREAK-UP https://read.cash/@zellypearl/the-breakup-2e2fa0eb
**Two weeks! Two weeks! Two weeks!**
This kept ringing in Celine’s mind as she got back home the night after she had dinner with Jeff and Mr. Johnson.
She couldn’t believe her ears. Why did Mr. Johnson come back, only to add salt to her injuries?
She was already doing her best to stay away from Jeff in the meantime, so why was fate bringing them back together?
What will she do to save herself from such a tangling situation? She could have done this perfectly well with just Jeff, but now that his dad is involved what is there for her to do? How will she ever escape this?
She kept pondering on what to do that night that she slept off without having her night bath and Celine hates going to bed without having her evening shower.
She woke up the next morning to notice she still had on her the clothes she wore to Jeff’s house for dinner.
There was no point throwing a tantrum for not showering last night because she knew better not to ruin her morning with the thought of that so she let it slip this one time.
Luckily for her, it was the weekend and she had all the time for herself and that could help her come up with plan B about the so-called engagement but first, she needed to eat something cause her stomach was already crumbling.
She pulled out her dress and went to shower first before even thinking of entering the kitchen to fix breakfast for herself.
While returning from the bathroom, she got a call from her mom asking her to come and visit. She already had it in mind to visit her parents during the weekend but with the sudden happening, she totally forgot about that.
She promised her mom that she would be visiting later in the day when she finishes with whatever she was busy with.
`AT CELINE'S PARENTS`
*Hi Mom!*
***Hi, my darling girl. How are you doing? I hope you brought a lot of goodies for your sweet mom.***
*Yeah sure! What do you have a darling daughter for?* They both giggled.*
***Come on, dear! Sit here.***
*Thank you, mom!*
**L*****et me go grab some refrigerated fruits for you, be right back***
In split seconds Celine’s mind already went back to the conversation she had with Mr. Johnson the other day. She was looking sad, agitated, and confused. She didn’t notice the presence of her mom when she returned back from the kitchen.
***What’s going on dear? You look disturbed, is everything okay?***
Celine didn’t still notice her mom’s presence neither did she hear what her mom just said.
**C*****eline! Celine! Come on girl, what’s up with you? Are you feeling alright?***
*Jez mom! You startled me.*
Sorry about that my darling but why should you be startled? Is there something I should know about that you aren’t telling me?
***Celine, have you lost your job?*** Celine’s mom asked with a bit of shock and fear.
*Oh no mom, not that, I wasn’t fired or anything of that nature.*
*I am just….nevermind mom.*
Nevermind? Are you sure you will be okay? How can you say I shouldn’t mind when something is definitely bothering my daughter.
***Come on you know you can tell me anything right?***
Ok, mom, the thing is Jeff…..
Yes? What is it with Jeff? Don’t tell me you two broke up, is that it?
No no, no mom, Celine retorted. Though her mom was actually right that wasn’t the reason for Celine's long face and bad mood. The breakup was a secret between both parents.
Mom, it's just that Mr. Johnson, Jeff’s dad came back this weekend.
**Okay? So what happened?**
He invited me to a dinner mom and then he told us he had a present for us; I and Jeff
***And? What next?***
Mom, can you guess what the present was?
***A wedding ring?***
Oh my God! Mom, how could you have guessed that right? Did Mr. Johnson inform you about this?
No, my dear, Mr. Johnson never told me anything about such but my daughter, don’t you think it's high time you both settle down? I mean you have been seeing each other for quite some time now and their family seems good to me and Jeff is a really nice and decent man, that I know very well.
Celine’s mom had so much trust in Jeff and respect for his family but little did she know that Jeff’s mom was a serpent and she, Celine wanted to teach a lesson.
She couldn’t possibly tell her mom all about how Mrs. Samantha treated her like a piece of crab.
So she rather remains silent about all of that and let her mom still give them the respect she has already had for them.
Celine wanted to make it a life mission to teach Mrs. Samantha that wealth and riches aren’t everything or all that makes a man. And this is a mission she has devoted herself to accomplish.
But now the engagement is standing in her way. She can’t get engaged to Jeff if she wanted to prove her point to Mrs. Samantha and this is exactly what was bothering and disturbing her yet she couldn’t tell her mom.
My darling girl, don’t be afraid of anything. If Mr. Johnson already deemed it fit to approach you two with this kind of conversation then I think it's time you both put it into consideration.
Mom, this is my point, it is not a matter of consideration because Mr. Johnson already told us we will be getting engaged in the next two weeks.
How can he do this to us? To me? I am not even prepared or ready.
***What do you mean by that my dear?***
Prepare and ready for what? What are you getting prepared for?
You are already given two weeks for your preparation and this is just an engagement for crying out loud and not the actual marriage so don’t be scared. Go get yourself ready and if there is anything I can be of help with, you know I am always just a call away and I won’t hesitate to come running right to you.
After visiting her home, Celine was almost brainwashed by her mom into accepting to get engaged to Jeff. But she suddenly snapped it off her mind, look further to her life mission, and stayed more focused.
She needed to work extra hard and smart if she wanted to become successful and accomplish her task.

@zellypearl
The Breakup
Walking out of the coffee shop was the last moment I could remember with Jeffrey. I did all I could to save the relationship but nothing seemed to be working.
Every time I was reminded of a place and the world I came from. I was no fit for Jeff, at least that was the only thing his mom kept throwing at my face each time she finds me and Jeff together. ***“When will you ever know your place, Celine”?***
I don’t place my dignity on what people say or think of me but jeff’s mom constantly made me lower my self-esteem than it was already.
All my life, my dignity, and self-worth were something I never toyed with, so I wasn’t gonna let Jeff’s mom ruin that for me simply because I loved his son.
**Love** is a good element in every relationship and so is **trust** and faithfulness, but I was never going to sell my dignity for a dose of insults.
I am not from a wealthy family like Jeff’ but I am not poor neither.
My dad is an engineer in a renounce company and my mom owns a big boutique she is managing very well with paid workers to help her.
With that, I am well taken care of and my academic and social needs/expenses were met even before I started working.
We weren’t poor and we still aren’t poor yet Samantha, Jeff’s mom always made it seem as if we were some piece of rags compared to their wealth and riches.
If money makes one insolent, rude, arrogant, impolite, and all sorts of things then I rather become poor, but if I can be wealthy without displaying all those negative or bad attitudes then I need to prove some of the rich and wealthy people with characters wrong. This was my mission the night I walked out on Jeff.
I loved Jeff very much and there was nothing anyone could do to change that, but rather than just the love, there was a mission I needed to embark on and this mission wasn’t only for myself but me and Jeff.
If I was going to save our relationship then I needed to get up and do something about it. Jeff could go the extra miles for me, but I didn’t want to be the reason a drift was created between Samantha and Jeff.
Mr. Johnson, Jeff’s dad is a respectable man, the exact opposite of his wife Samantha. He rarely stays at home due to the nature of his work. He is a businessman and he travels a lot for business meetings and meets up in different places around the globe.
Mr. Johnson loved his son Jeff very much and he also took me as his daughter. He blessed the day I and Jeff started seeing each other and anticipated the day we both would finally get married.
***What was I going to tell Mr. Johnson about my breakup with his son?***
***What will be his reaction to this shocking news?*** I knew he wasn’t going to take it lightly either treat the matter with patience and mercy.
I wasn’t gonna ruin the good relationship I had with Jeff’s dad. I didn’t intend or plan to hurt him neither disappoint him.
I asked Jeff for a favor, no! rather I asked him to grant me a wish of not telling his dad about our breakup.
He declined, hoping I would change my mind because of that, although he also knew that whenever I set my mind on something, there was no going back on it. I wasn’t bothered nor disturbed about Jeff’s declination because I trusted him too well not to go against my wishes.
The day I broke up with Jeff, I told him there were some things I needed to sort out about myself as such I needed to be alone. I wasn’t hurt in any way and I wasn’t planning to hurt Jeff either. He agreed to give me the time I needed for myself while I work on saving our relationship in disguise.
The next morning I woke up to a slight headache, I reached out for a glass of water that was placed on the table closed to my bedside. I took a sip from the glass and put it back
I checked my alarm clock, it was already past 7 am, I quickly rushed out of bed and had my breakfast and bath, dressed up, and set out for work.
I was working as a bank secretary and I needed to be in the office before 7:30 am.
I got to the office at exactly 7:20 am before the manager arrived.
Just when I settled to begin my daily work, I received a message alert on my mobile phone. I didn’t bother checking since I had a lot of work placed on my table already, so I needed to get to it before attending to the message on my phone.
Little did I know that the message I got was from Jeff. He wanted to inform me about some dinner we will be having with his dad later in the evening. His dad wasn’t in town so coming back, he decided to have a dinner hangout and I was specially invited.
I was perplexed when I read the message later when I was off work and was already at home. I couldn’t help but wonder what I was going to do about the message I received.
Should I just ignore the message and give excuses? Should I accept the invite or rather should I decline? After all, I and jeff aren’t seeing each other again, but then it was supposed to be a secret between both of us.
If I decline, what explanation or excuse would I give to Mr. Johnson for not coming or why I declined?
I had to do something about it or better still accept my fate one more time and meet up with Jeff for the dinner night.
It is just dinner so I don’t think anything could go wrong. I mean one dinner night wouldn’t harm a single soul would it?
After much consideration and analysis, I decided I was going for dinner, and nothing would go wrong being that I was fully prepared for anything.
* **~~At Mr. Johnson’s House~~** *
*Hello, there my princess!*
***Good evening Mr. Johnson, Hi Jeff.***
Celine greeted both Mr. Johnson and her Ex Jeff and then helped herself to a seat.
Jeff rushed to help her settle down so that it won’t be too obvious that something was up with them.
While they were still eating in the absence of Samantha, Celine suddenly asked of her not because she longed for her presence but because it was a polite thing to do.
***She is out of town, Jeff responded.***
How are the two of you faring? Mr. Johnson asked Celine and Jeff. they looked at each other and chorused, we are doing fine Sir/dad.
That is good news then because I have something for both of you.
This time, they both became worried because they couldn’t think of anything that Mr. Johnson could get for the both of them that he couldn’t give them individually, why use the phrase ***both of you?***
While they were still pondering on what it was, Mr. Johnson slipped his hands into his side pocket and brought out a shiny little box wrapped with red ribbon.
What could that be? They all wondered.
*Please let it not be what I am thinking,* Celine, prayed within her.
You see, while on my tour during one of my business trips, I got my eyes on this, and then I thought it would make a good gift for the both of you.
He placed the box on the dining table and asked them to take it, open and have a look at it if they wanted to.
Jeff picked up the box first and opened it, his eyes couldn’t believe what he saw. He raised his head to look at Celine. She looked confused and wondered why jeff had such a look on his face.
She grabbed the box from Jeff and she received the greatest shock of her life; **An engagement Ring**
What? Not now! Celine thought, but what was she going to do to save herself from this situation she already found herself.
She let out a long sigh and this made Mr. Johnson ask if there was a problem or if they didn’t like the present.
They both struggled with words to say **NO**. Celine responded that she was just surprised and asked Mr. Johnson why he bought them a ring.
Don’t be silly my daughter. You guys are going to get married any time soon so isn’t it wise to get you two an engagement ring while preparing for the ceremony two weeks from now?
**Two Weeks?** Celine shouted! Yes, dear, you two will be getting engaged two weeks from now.

Your Time Is Your Money
You know that adage, **Time Is Money?**Whosoever came about that adage knew better. He or she had critically straightened it out
Perhaps if the person didn't do that then we wouldn't have known how costly our time is.
Losing time is as good as losing a whole sum of money.
If you doubt me then try spending or should I say **wasting** just an hour of your time doing anything unprofitable and then come back and tell me the experience especially as a businessman.
A businessman is very mindful of his time, he doesn't risk it for anything in the world.
And time is indeed money.
As a blogger perhaps or if you are financially engaged in one thing or the other, you had plans of doing one or two things that could fetch you some coins at a particular time or for some hours. How do you feel when you lost that time without doing anything or achieving nothing as earlier planned, either consciously or unconsciously?
If you have never felt your worst then whatever that stole your time must have been for a good reason, still, your mind will be constantly reminding you that you just lost the time you would have used to achieve something tangible for yourself.
**TIME IS MONEY**
So they say, and it is. Time is money. When once it is gone, then it's gone and there is nothing you can do to bring it back.
If you want to stop losing your money then stop wasting your time.
Stop misusing your time on unnecessary things that at the end of the day wouldn't fetch you any positive result.
If you must utilize your resources well then you must learn to manage your time.
Not only for your own benefit but the benefit of others as well.
Draw out a plan for yourself and work according to it unless otherwise.
**MANAGE YOUR TIME**
Managing your time well is the best thing you could do for yourself and your finance.
Specific time should be allotted for specific tasks you have for each day. If not you might end up missing your time or wasting it on certain things that don't even worth your time.
When speaking of "*money**, you cannot leave out **time** because the two works together.
To become more profitable, use, and manage your time well.
Be mindful of your time and utilize it well to fit your purpose.

Fantasized Dream
It was one cold and windy evening, the sky was still half-bright but kinda cloudy as if it just escaped a heavy downpour. I was walking in the beautiful garden behind our house, admiring the large scented petals of our flowers, inhaling and exhaling the sweet-smelling fragrance from the flower while raising my head for a moment to breathe in the refreshing air that evolved from the neighboring surrounding.
I stood for a while and gazed at the cloudy sky, fantasying and admiring the beauty of nature, muttering a silent word of appreciation to God for creating the universe so beautifully and placing everything in their respective position, as I was about to pay attention to the singing of the birds and stay totally fixed in it, I was suddenly distracted by an approaching noise from behind. I turned to look and behold to my greatest surprise, a tall, really handsome looking guy was already a few meters away from where I stood. I could felt my jaw drop cause I couldn’t contend with such a figure, for a moment I felt really stupid for having to drop open my mouth at the sight of a mere mortal like me, while I guess that was what my mind was telling me at that point. As if I was reminded by someone that my mouth was still opened and that I needed to shut it.
Good lord! Such a figure, I muttered to myself when I could finally regain half of my consciousness, lol.
Just when I was able to blink and try to think, all my mind could think of was; where is he from? What is his mission here? How did he appear in our garden? Was he looking for something or someone? Or could it be that he lost his way and wandered into our garden? Wait is that even possible? I retorted to the last question. While I was trying to reason and perhaps figure out ready-made answers to the endless questions my mind kept bombarding me with, the amazing figure already moved a step slowly to where I stood, and before I could realize what was happening, I felt a warm kiss on my forehead, he leaned forth and held my head for it.
My heart skipped for about a second or more, and I could feel my feet shaky in a way as if my body couldn’t carry me at that point, I raised my head to look at him or perhaps into his eyes, which when I did all I could see was a warm smile radiating from his lips revealing his one-sided dimples. I gazed at him for more than a minute looking silly and dumb.
He noticed my mute state and walked slower to me, this time way slower that I was struggling to even blink, he held my hands tightly as if I was going to run away, or perhaps I really might have, because the whole thing was confusing and so complicated.
After some times, as if he knew my mind had already fallen off guard, he rubbed my hands warmly saying slowly and very sweetly “**Let’s Fall In Love”**
It was a bombshell to me, and I found myself struggling and squeezing for proper breath. I tried to utter some words but my lips were failing me, I struggled and struggled yet nothing was coming forth. My heart was racing like a horse and my breath was killing me as a result of trying so hard to speak as well.
When I tried and tried countless times but still no positive result, I couldn’t contend it any longer and so I screamed out aloud, just then did I realize that it was but a “**FANTASIZED DREAM”.** I smiled as I shook my head at my foolishness and went inside the house.

Why Do You Help?
How often do you render help to people?
Do you help people only because you are expecting a favor in return?
Are you a type that helps people because of some motives best known to you?
I am sorry to put it to you that many have refused any kind of help from a person simply because they are afraid of what the other party might want in return and if they don't have that thing to give, then they feel indebted to the person.
In the same way, men have been tagged as helpers with benefits. Society and some likes of men has made it look like no man can ever help a lady without asking for something in return
They have constantly reminded them that there is no free thing. They say even in Freetown nothing is free.
Securing titles and positions in society has been made the same
If someone helps you secure a position or stature today, it's because they will be needing your help tomorrow.
But was this how it was supposed to be?
When did we get to this point? That none can genuinely offer help because of an alternative motive?
It now seems impossible for people to help without anything in return and even if some people are genuinely lending a helping hand, some will still be in doubt about their genuine help.
I will pause and ask again, how often do you help a person in need?
Do you only help those that will be of benefit to you either now or in the future?
Before helping a person, ask yourself these questions;
Why am I helping this person?
Will there ever be a point in my life that I will use the help I am offering now against the one I am helping?
If you can't honestly give answers to these questions then perhaps you should think again.
You shouldn't help a person to the detriment of needing something or a favor in return.
Help because you want to help and not because you need a favor in return.
Don't be pushed by your motives to help someone.
Do it because you genuinely want to do it.

Empowering Women
Are you among those ignorant fellows who still think a woman is limited because of her gender and stature?
Are you among those who still think a woman's place is in the kitchen?
If yes, then I will advise you to do away with the ace mindset and start thinking right.
Gone are those days when women had their place limited to the kitchen.
Gone are those days a woman was made a housewife while the men the breadwinner.
**Empowering Women**
Some of the women right now didn't have a foundation laid down for them. Some are still struggling today because of the ace ideology about women and their roles.
But we can really change the way all this turns out for our children and our unborn generation.
**Lay A Foundation**: This is very necessary and important. The foundation we lay for our children especially our female ones matters a lot.
When you empower your girl child, you empower the nation.
And talking about empowerment. Not only socially but economically and financially.
When a woman is financially stable, she is respected by society.
Wouldn't it be nice if both husband and wife are financially stable and economically engaged in something?
It is not a bad thing if a man (husband) has $200 worth of Bitcoin in his wallet and the woman (wife) owns $100 worth of bitcoin as well.
I mean wouldn't that be nice?
**Educate Them**: After laying a foundation, the next on the list is education. Both formal and informal, teach them, they ought to know about the revolution of the economic system and what they are bound to face.
**Investment**: investing in a woman is investing in a nation.
It takes a financially stable and confident woman to stand up to challenges, whatsoever it is thrown at her. Investing in a woman and empowering them gives an opportunity for growth and development. And the level of poverty can be reduced if not completely eradicated
Empower a girl child!
Empower a lady!
Empower a woman!
Empower a nation!

The Best Christmas Present
The clock struck 8 pm, everyone was still wide awake on was Christmas eve. The kids were already excited to open the Christmas presents but they had to exercise a little patient till the sun was up in the morning.
Sylvia was busy with the decorations while Claire was helping out in the kitchen.
Little Dave was playing with the dolls and toys. Everyone was busy with one thing or the other, the house was filled with excited people, some were singing and making merriment of the season.
source https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/images/christmas-eve-traditions-games-1544031739.jpg
Everyone was excited, happy, and having fun except Celine. She sat at a corner close to a window, looking through the sky. She had always been the same every Christmas eve, the night that breaks into Christmas day. No one could guess right why Celine has always been that way on eve night, no one except her mom and grandma.
Little Celine lost her dad when she was only six years old, the trauma was too much for a little girl her age to cope with. She cried every night wishing it was all a bad dream or nightmare she could wake up from.
Every eve night, Celine misses her dad the most because of all the fun things they used to do together.
She remembers how her dad used to buy her different kinds of toys, take her shopping on Christmas eve, how the decorated the Christmas tree together and how he would hang her on his neck so she would place the Star on top of the Christmas tree and how the dad will swing her after putting her off his neck that she giggles and laugh so loud.

The two of them once scare her mom that she ran out of the kitchen to find out what happened that Celine was shouting so loud only to find out that her dad was behind her loud and terrible screams.
Celine couldn't get over her dad even when she has turn thirteen already. It's been 7 years since the departure of her dad but the memories are still very fresh in her mind.
While everyone else was busy celebrating and jubilating, Celine was always at the corner of the house, looking at the sky through the windows.
As if hoping for a miracle to happen and her wish granted.
If only Santa Claus grants wishes, all she could ever ask of was to bring back her dad. She misses him so much and nothing and no one could fill the vacuum in her heart.
Celine! Celine! Grandma called out to her. Come here my child, help me with those packages.
Celine ran to grab the boxes Grandma was pointing at, she got them and handed them over to her
Grandma opened one of the boxes and in it was a hardcover book with the encryption **"WISHES"**
Celine fixed her eyes on the book for a while and hope grandma would open the pages. She was eager to know the content of the book with such a title.

Grandma noticed the looks in her eyes and asked if she could read the pages to her. She immediately answered 'oh yes please'
She flipped the pages till she got to page 10. Celine asked her why she didn't start from page 1. Grandma responded that there was something she needed her to see in the particular page she flipped to.
She handed over the book to Celine and asked her to read what she saw on the page.
The subtitle she read aloud **"Our Loved Ones"**
***Though departed***
***Yet never apart***
***Distance created***
***Only what the eyes could see***
***Memories in our hearts***
***One that could never be erased.***
***Loved, nurtured, and cherished***
***Even in years to come..***
She wanted to read more but was stopped by her grandma. You can finish the rest later my dear child, her grandma said to her.
Tears almost rolled down her cheeks as though she understood the lines from the page she just read.
Celine was a young and smart girl. She didn't need her grandma to explain or give interpretation to the words she read in the book.
Celine's grandma pulled her slow to her and whispered some words to her "I know what you are going through my dear, I see and feel your pains" but my child, you shouldn't keep torturing yourself that way.
Search your heart and you will find that which you are always searching for. ***Our loved ones may have departed from our sight but never from our heart***
The memories of those you cherish live forever with you.
Wipe your tears, nurture, and cherish the sweet memories you once shared. He wasn't gone forever, he still lives in you.
The words of Celine's grandma strengthen her for the night. But more than her grandma's words, the lines she read from the book which was supposed to be her Christmas present changed her life for the better.
Grandma told her to keep the book that it was hers. Grandma's Christmas present to her.
Celine's gloomy Christmas eve turned out to be the best for her.
She hugged her grandma and thanked her for the Christmas present. The best present she had received on Christmas.

Cryptophobic? Read This
**CRYPTOPHOBIA**
Cryptophobia simply means the fear of cryptocurrency.
You and I can agree that there are still many out there who are cryptophobic and if you are here or you know someone who is, then you might wanna tell them my story.
**Why Are Most People Cryptophobic?**
If you are here and you still feel there is something wrong with being afraid of Crypto, then I want to help reset your mind a little. No matter how much we know about blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, we started somewhere. I mean we all started from scratch. We weren't born into the world of crypto though we can't say the same about our future generation.
It is okay not to know anything about Crypto. It is still okay to know little. We learn every day. You don't expect to wake up one day and know everything about cryptocurrency.
I have friends who I communicate with on a daily basis and some will be like ***"I don't even understand anything about this Crypto of a thing"*** and I have people who I talk to about Crypto earning and they will look at me and be like, what gibberish is she making now?
It is very okay to think and feel that way. This was exactly how I felt two years ago.
Now can I tell you my story? I am sorry but I always bring myself to the table each time I want to speak to someone out there.
source https://i.pinimg.com/736x/af/c2/96/afc2966dd3728e7a4531bed48d2de911.jpg
**My Story: Was I Cryptophobic?**
You can say I was, but for a different reason.
Do you know that feeling of sitting for a lecture of about an hour or two and at the end of it all, you realize you got nothing, I mean a single thing? This was how it was or should I say what crypto was to me. Don’t blame me and I won’t blame you either if you are scared of the so-called **CRYPTO** with giant spelling lol.
Yes, I was young and naive. I just finished my secondary education and I had nothing to do. I was introduced to a crypto platform called Steemit. What was I supposed to go and do in a place that will be filled with Crypto grammars I knew nothing about? How do I relate when I didn't even understand the language of the Crypto world or blockchain?
All I was told was, so far you can **WRITE** you will be fine. Little did the person know I wasn't going to be fine but I followed instructions anyway.
The journey started back in 2018, not long enough right? I know. I have only been in the crypto world for two years now. But I have become a changed and better person in the last two years. I remember how I started, my challenges and struggles, and today I am a little bit advanced than when I started.
I was worried, what would I say to the people. What was I going to write when I knew nothing about crypto? I thought about it for days even after making my introduction post, it took a while before I started writing and blogging on the platform. But guess what? Do you wanna know how I started?
I was told that I really didn't have to face crypto or finance contents, that they had different communities of my interest like art-related articles, poetry, fiction writing, sport, Christian-articles, creative content community etc.
I was told to pick those of my interest and then start writing.
Start with what you love most, what you know you can write on, and then see what happens next. Again I heed to instructions and I started the journey. Was I after the tokens after the first start? The answer is a big **NO**. I wasn't even bothered or concerned about the tokens. I just continued writing and having fun. I didn't even take it as a serious blogging platform but I wasn't spamming either lol.
This continued for months until I started reading other people's articles and I was challenged to do better. I was not going to remain a toddler in writing forever. I agree these people were way older and more than I was but that didn't stop me from wanting to do better.
Most times I used to feel they had more eyes on their articles because they are seniors on the platform, though to a great percent it is true.
So I strive every day to beat my reputation and level up fast and also become a senior girl hahaha, lame right?
To cut my story short, I stand to tell you how Cryptophobic I was. That word with a **C.R.Y.P.T.O** was something I never thought I would know nor understand anything about even in years to come.
I can't say I know much about it but the good thing is that I am not cryptophobic again. I am open to learning more about Crypto and everything it has to offer this generation and the next.
So if ever you are sit in a gathering of people talking about cryptocurrency and you feel you are the only naive person among them, do not feel bad or any less of yourself. If you want to know more, ask questions.
The only way to be free from the fear of crypto is to face Cryptocurrency as a whole. Get involved and know more about it. Sooner or later, you will realize that there is more to cryptocurrency than the huge name it carries.

Search The Heart
When tough times draw near and we are no longer close
Search your heart!
When it seems I am letting go and giving up on you
Why not search your heart!
When distance becomes a barrier
Please search your heart
When it becomes unbearable to forgive or forget
Do well to search your heart
When my attention is drawn away from you
I insist you search your heart
Though your mind may play some games on you
I rather you search your heart
Your feelings might have been toiled with
Your little treasure room might have been shaken
I will advise you to keep calm and search your heart.
You truly might still find love.

Dear Santa Claus
I have never asked you for anything during Christmas
I believe you are just a fantasy that children were normally deceived with.
I haven't thought about making a wish before and even hoping for them to come true.
I may or may not even wish for anything this Christmas as well.
But I do know many children out there around the globe who believe in you and are already making and sending their Christmas wishes.
And waiting in anticipation for their Christmas presents and gifts
Some always wait for this season to make those wishes.
And children believe anything cause they are tender and fragile.
They believe in Santa Claus and they believe their wishes will always come true.
If I am to make any wishes this Christmas. It will be to see smiles on the faces of those young children.
Dear Santa Claus!
I wouldn't ask for anything for myself.
But I ask that you honor the wishes and heart desires of those children; Poor or Rich.
To those that wish even after knowing their conditions that they may never get what they desire.
To them who have enough but still believe in Santa and send their wishes and accept their presents.
To those who don't even know what they need or why they should wish for anything.
To those who want to make those wishes but they can't.
If you can grant me just one wish, it will be to honor the wishes of all the children all over the world.
Gift them unexpectedly and unusually.
Put smiles on their faces!
***No matter how hard life is with you and how difficult we are all striving to make ends meet.***
***Let's remember that we are in a season we should share in love.***
***Become someone',s Santa Claus.***
***Put smiles on the faces of one another.***
***Make someone happy today and be intentional about it.***

Bruised And Gifted
**Coffee?** No thank!
**How about juice?** Leave me alone, would you?
***Ok! Sorry miss, I was hoping you needed a company.***
Do I look like someone that wants that?
I ***guess you did, that's why came around.***
Well then, please stay away from me, I would really appreciate that.
He thought I needed someone to talk to, or is that how pitiful I looked?
I just needed to be alone on my own.
I needed my space, I was in die need of freedom.
Freedom from self-pity and self-hate.
I needed to clear my head and find myself.
I walked into the coffee shop unconsciously and sat in a corner.
My mind was far gone until he came around to disturb my already troubled mind.
Why did he do that? Why on earth would some people not just mind their business?
Would he have done the same to some average person? A guy maybe?
Is it because I was a girl? And so he thought he can just walk up to me and strike a conversation?
I was already so mad for no good reason. My annoyance with myself and the life I was living had already overshadowed my thinking.
I was almost at the edge of the road bridge when I suddenly recalled myself.
What was I doing? Who was I angry or mad with?
This is exactly the prison I needed an escape route from.
The same reason that took me to the coffee shop.
I have a mental disorder of always losing my mind at different intervals of time.
Getting mad and angry for no good reason.
I wanted some freedom from this whole mess.
I couldn't continue living such a messy life and ruining other people's lives as well.
How do you describe someone that throws a fit simply because a surprise birthday party was organized for her?
How do you describe someone that constantly scares the life out of her fiance that he is having second thoughts about marrying her?
Who did she offend? What did she do to deserve such a life?
Why was she made a vessel of s
All she has ever sort for, all her life was freedom from self.
To turn a new being, be a different her.
Be like every normal person without some kind of mental disorder or issues.
She longed to go to fun places with her loved loves.
She wished to sit among other normal girls like her and hold hands with her fiance.
Was it too much to ask?
Why did God create her with such a beautiful gift yet something that is standing to tarnish her destiny?
What was his purpose for treating her this way?
When she couldn't even stand on the stage for more than 30 minutes without creating chaos.
God if you can't change me, then why not just take me away was her daily prayer.
She couldn't continue living such a life.
She was tired and fed up with herself and her crazy life, so she calls it.
The bridge was the only option left for her. To end it all.
To end her pitiful life and not be a burden to others.
But little did she know she had been watched and guided every step of the way.
Just when she decided to put an end to it all, a voice spoke to her saying **"there is no problem greater than you"**
Your problem is far too small for you to end the gift you were graced with.
You were made to be a blessing to others and a blessing through your gift, so do not end it.
For the first time in her entire life, someone spoke to her differently.
She didn't know who it was but the voice just couldn't be ignored.
And from that moment she took charge and control of her life.
She didn't see her mental disorder as a problem anymore.
And her life has been peaceful since then.
**Are you facing one problem or the other?**
**Maybe someone you were born with that cannot be changed**
**Something you would have to accept and live with for the rest of your life.**
**I am here to remind you just like the voice that spoke to the girl "there is no problem greater than you"**
**The Lord knew we are strong enough to handle all the problems and challenges before He allowed it.**
**He wouldn't have just closed His eyes to it.**
**He knows us and knows our various capacity as such there is nothing we face that we can't handle.**
**Do not make your problem look greater than you cause you are greater than every problem you face.**

Nurturing Depression
You were fooled into believing it looked like you
Or perhaps you thought it actually was you.
You knew the name, and you could say it out loud.
You welcomed it even when you didn't want to
Enthusiastically it came to stay and never willing to go away.
You pardoned it for two to three days until it became a part of you.
Now you wish to chase it away but how?
You wish to share but when? where do you start?
I welcome an unknown stranger in my home
What if society blames me?
What if my family and friends desert me?
What if it doesn't wanna go away?
What do I do then?
It's too much for me to bear
I cannot take this anymore
I want you out of my life and out of my home
**I am not leaving is the constant response you get.**
**I like it here and I never wish to go away.**
We both can't live together again.
**Well maybe you should have thought of that when you let you in**
On a quest to get rid of the visitor
You got rid of yourself instead.
And that didn't change anything cause it left after you were gone.
It found a new home and settled with another.
The same repeated itself until it wiped out an entire generation
Are you also a victim as the person in this story?
Are you consciously or unconsciously nurturing depression?
If No! Good! Do not give it a chance.
If yes, then get rid of It and not get rid of YOU.
Never welcome and nurture **DEPRESSION**

My Photography Work
Happy Lord's Day beloved of God.
We have beautiful weather today and I just couldn't take my eyes off the sky.
The cloud was just too lovely. I decided to take a few shots today and share with you guys to also behold the lovely clouds.
If there is one thing I love so much about photography and nature, it's the sky because of its beautiful and lovely formation of the sky.
I love to imagine the cloud forming different kinds of animals and objects.
When I was quite younger, I used to believe the clouds change into different animals like cat, lion, rabbit, horse, etc lol.
Sometimes I see a horse and a horse rider.
Today I captured a few and edited them in a different color.
Below are the shots and the different editing.
**First Editing**
In this image, I edited and increased the contrast and reduced the brightness
**Second Editing**
This is the second editing. I changed it to black and white. I love monochrome images cause of the ancient look.
**Third Editing**
I made this particular one look a little warm and cold as well 🤭😂
I don't know how they call this type of editing but I like it that is why I changed the color and made it look this way.
**Fourth Editing**
This night editing. I made this shot look like it was taken during the night. Part of the image looks darker than the other part and this is the perfect edit for it.
I am not a photographer neither do I have a professional camera.
All the images I share is from my phone. I captured it with my phone camera and edited with my phone as well.
I hope you like my photography today.
**Camera:** Infinix Hot

The So-called Ghost Startled Me
I sat up in the middle of the night. I have been lost in my thoughts for about an hour or two, don’t know exactly as I didn’t check my time. I could have easily gone back to bed and try to force myself to sleep, but was that really an easy thing to do?
***Have you ever longed for sleep yet your eyes keep denying you of it?***
***Have you closed them tight, yet you still find yourself in the present world?***
This is what happens to us when we try so hard. They say sleep is nature, it comes when it wants to, you cannot force it or push it around even if you wanted to.
This is what I experienced for about an hour. Did I engage myself? Yes, I did, I tried fiddling with my phone, surfing the internet but that didn’t keep my mind off my thoughts.
Suddenly as if I was pulled out from my world, I felt strange forces in my room. I dared not to light up my room because I almost freak out.
And my mind decides to play very rough and expensive games with me. The conversations I had with my brother about ghosts came flashing.
I remembered how he said that we have ghosts living with humans in their houses. How he said that some even sleeps with us on our bed, How he told me that some deliberately wakes us up every night and send us to the restroom.
***But the thought of the restroom?*** He said they are even more in there, like what the!
My bladder just had to disgrace me at that moment and I was seriously pressed.
I reluctantly sneaked out of my room and opened our corridor door heading to our restroom. Only for me to sight our bathroom door opened. ***Now tell me this is a joke.***
Who could have kept the door open? We never do that cause my mom shouts so much at anyone who mistakenly leaves the bathroom door open.
I didn’t wait for a second, I ran with my urine back to my room hahahaha. Please don’t tell me you were expecting me to use the restroom after the mysterious happening? No!
I am not afraid of ghosts but then our mind has a way of playing games with us.
Wait! Did I just say I am not afraid of ghosts? I lie! Hahahaha, I can’t stand their stories let alone their appearance.
When I got back to my room. I closed my eyes and squeezed it hard and tried to sleep. I begged the Almighty to give me sleep lol.
Just as I was trying to recover from the fright, more came along. I heard a strange noise. As if something was passing by and it was making sounds.
I heard the sound from one angle to another. Oh no! They have finally got up with me.
Even in the darkroom, I could tell that my eyes were already popping out from its socket, it widened as though I wanted to see what was making the sound in my darkroom. **Strange and crazy right?** I mean how on earth did I want to see in a dark room? What was I thinking? That I am a cat or wolf? Or that I have some kind of special powers?
The sound came again, and just then I jumped out of my bed and reached out for my room light switch. I put on the light and behold my so-called ghost turned out to be a giant cockroach lol.
***Oh, how I ate cockroaches***. I murdered it, No! Actually, I crippled it before finally sending it to its grave. What nonsense lol.
Still wondering why Cockroaches possesses wings to fly. Where exactly are they flying to when they can actually walk or crawl. Isn't that abusing of the wings
Ghost may be real but never be played by a cockroach or any creepy flying things.

Bed Of Roses?
Was life only supposed to be a bed of roses?
I often hear people curse the day they were born simply because it's not going well with them or they aren't getting to where they desired and aspired to be.
Some even curse life and see nothing good out of life.
But was it supposed to be so?
Is life supposed to be a bed of roses?
We all know that challenges come and every one of us has a taste of its doses.
They say challenges come to either make you or mar but whichever you chose is what works for you.
So far you are a living being and you are existing on earth, life will always throw coal and dirt at you sometimes.
But you should always be ready at every given point in time to handle everything thrown at you; either roses or thorns.
If life presents you with roses, good for you.
But if it's thorns you are given, why not make the best use out of it?
Another saying goes this way ***"How you lay your bed, so will you lie on it".*** Imagine if you lay your bed with thorns, what would be the outcome?
And if you lay your bed with roses, you understand what that means as well.
So it's left for you to choose which one you want.
Life isn't just a bed of roses. It comes in different mixture and textures but it's in our place to polish and furnish it the way we want it.
Stop wishing and assuming that life is a bed of roses cause it really isn't.
Be ready for anything and always keep in mind that there are still hidden thorns even among roses.
