FINAL WHISTLE

Image
I watched a local football match at a school playing ground. As I sat down, I asked one of the boys what the score was. With a smile, he replied; "They are leading us 3-0"! And I said, REALLY!! I have to say you don't look discouraged. "Discouraged?" the boy asked with a puzzled look ... Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle? I have confidence in the team and the managers; We shall definitely overcome! Truly, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy's team! He waved at me gently, with a beautiful smile as he left; I was amazed, mouth wide open; Such confidence; Such beautiful faith; As I got back home that night, his question kept coming back to me: "Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle?" Life is like a game. Why should you be discouraged when The Almighty God is your Manager? Why should you be discouraged, when there's still life? Why sho...

SEX AND ROMANCE IN MARRIAGE

Image
It is obvious that we all want to have a taste of marriage. We wish to marry and have our own kids. Many singles are really praying for this marriage even when they have no clue about it. Remove sex and romance out of marriage and most people become confused about what marriage is all about. Look here, marriage is not where you rush to like an award night. It is not a company that you are free to employ a manager to help you take care of it while you sit in your chair, with your legs crossed and a glass of wine on the table as a CEO. You want to marry right? But can i ask you some questions? These questions are for both the bachelors and spinsters. 1. What is marriage? Can you explain to us without making it look like a primary school topic and definition gotten from the syllable? 2. How good are you in management? I mean home management, emotional management, time management, financial management, Etc. 3. How patience are you? 4. What can you offer, out...

BUS TIME OPPORTUNITY

Image
So on Tuesday I had an engagement at Ajah Lagos and not being too sure of the traffic situation ( not after a terrible traffic experience the previous day ) I decided to do public transport and generally enjoy the Lagos spirit once again (lol) While making my way to Mile-2 a thought dropped in my heart. The journey to Ajah is about an hour if you lucky to get a sane driver and semi sane conductor Lol not the type that will be stopping at every bus stop looking for passengers who are not looking for them! So am I going to just sit in the bus for this 1 hour and probably block my ears with an earpiece far away from all those talks about Buhari and Atiku that one unsolicited political analyst is bound to give as if any of them is his distant cousin.... No! No!! Am going to use this one hour the best way I can! I will preach the gospel! ( this isn't the first time of me sharing word on transit but there was something bound to be different about this one ) So how do I get t...

Who PUSHED ME?

Image
A man had one very beautiful daughter. When the daughter was ready for marriage, the father sent news around town that all the eligible young men should come to compete in a test which would determine who was fit to marry his daughter. On that day, all was set, all the able-bodied young men came out. Some came with paper and Biro and others with cutlasses and swords. The rich man took them to his swimming pool and addressed the men: “Any of you who can swim from one end of this swimming pool to the other would marry my daughter.  In addition, I‘ll give him 15 million dollars, a car and a house so they can start life well. I shall be waiting to meet my son-in-law at the other end. Good luck!” As the young men, all very excited at the prospect of winning, started taking off their shirts, a helicopter came over the pool and dropped alligators and crocodiles into the pool. Immediately, all the men turned back and started wearing their shirts again. Disappointed, some of ...

"BEAUTY IS NOT ENOUGH"

Image
                                                            "BEAUTY IS NOT ENOUGH" David picked up his phone and called Margret (the lady he wants to marry) "Hello! Margret, am in my family house now. You can come over let me introduce you to my mum." Margret was happy, she jumped on her bed. "Is your mum at home now?" She asked with a lot of excitement. Trusting that  David's mum will accept such a beautiful girl like her. "She went to the market in town but she will be back shortly. Please hurry up and come over." She threw her phone on the bed, picked up her towel and rushed to her bathroom. 45 MINUTES LATER She was seated in a bus. The bus conductor was still calling for more passengers. A woman in her mid fifties walked in to the bus. "please my daughter let me sit close to the door while you shift i...

20 LIFE CHANGING THOUGHTS

Image
1. Take risks in your life. If you win, you can lead; if you lose, you can guide. 2. People are not what they say but what they do; so judge them not from their words but from their actions. 3. When someone hurts you, don't feel bad because it's a law of nature that the tree that bears the sweetest fruits gets maximum number of stones. 4. Take whatever you can from your life because when life starts taking from you, it takes even your last breath. 5. In this world, people will always throw stones on the path of your success. It depends on what you make from them - a wall or a bridge. 6. Challenges make life interesting; overcoming them make life meaningful. 7. There is no joy in victory without running the risk of defeat. 8. A path without obstacles leads nowhere. 9. Past is a nice place to visit but certainly not a good place to stay. 10. You can't have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time. 11. If what y...
