Happy was just bin human bt nt withstandn backstabbing n tarnishing ur girl's image was totally uncalled 4 kkk. Most of we ladies behave just lyk happy, some might not voice it out or even take a drastic action but some decides 2 take it all in. Anike darln just 4give her and move on but be very careful.

I wouldn't blame Happy because....1. She knows Admiral longtime ago b4 she even linked Anike. 2.she just exhibited a feature of human being. 3.may be she wanna disconnect Anike n connect herself or 4. She is protecting Admiral's sexual life so dat he can urgently seek medical attention.

To The author, Rachaelfst, and all of us reading, i say WELDONE! God bless us more.

Happy Sunday Everyone,


I'd like to say one or two things about Happy's case before moving on to the next episode.


First and foremost I want so say this, that as human it's very difficult for us to celebrate other people's success.

Irrespective of gender, There is 99.9‰probability that some of us will do the same if we found ourselves in Happy's shoe.

Do you think it's easy to watch people close to you succeed while you are still struggling to get to the top?

Friends will tell you "Congratulations, I'm happy for you" but the truth is that most of them don't mean it, they can only pretend to be.

Some will not even take any evil step but deep down they are bittered. Some will even keep their distance from that successful friend/family.

More reasons why we must surround ourselves with good people and stop flaunting our success on people's faces. Especially in this age of social media.
People now runs the affairs of their lives on social media platforms. There are some things that needs to be private cos we live in a wicked world.


Now this is exactly where I'm going. The question is how can will manage successful friends around us?

I thought about it and there is just one answer I could come up with....

It will only take God's grace to overcome things like this. Envy is one of the fruit of the flesh, If you are been controlled by the flesh, then trust me you'll found yourself in Happy's shoe. We are all quick to judge her but are we going to do better?

If you are deeply rooted in God's words then you can easily overcome the flesh. The bible says

"Godliness with contentment is great gain"

When you are not controlled by your flesh, then you'll be able to look past other people's achievement and hold on to God for a better tomorrow. The bible says

"He makes all things beautiful in his time"

Your friends are doing great today doesn't mean God has forgotten you, your own time we surely come.

The person that bought a car last year is now using a old model because the new model is out.

Lastly,

"The race is not for the swift, nor the battle to the strong but time and chance happens to them all" Eccl 9:11


Putting off another person's candle won't make yours shine brighter.

Let's have the right mindset and the world will be a better place for us to live in.

Thanks, God bless!

I agree with @rachealfst...dere s no friend or family agn in this world...even some parents stab their children behind not to talk of friends...

I wonder why we have to put all our lives on social media...most of the things happening to humans is as a result of the things we ve discussed wit odas...

m nt saying we shldnt share our feelings wit odas bt we shld knw who to talk wen it cums to critical issues....

Happy action just reminds me of one Yoruba proverb which says 'Ore ni gbani, Ore ni npani' meaning a friend saves and also kills. He who friends betrayed should not be angry, even siblings betray each other. Thanks you Rachael for this beautiful story. May the Lord bless you richly and enlarge your coast.

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

Its in man's nature to be wicked. That's what man inherited from his father Adam. That trait is passed down to every man born of a woman until he/she encounters Christ.

It's in Christ that all these traits are dealt with. We become a new creature.
Hebrews 8:12. For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.

Man will always have these traits until he is born again. To handle these traits, get a new nature. Then draw men to this light also. That way, every person is accounted for.
