Drink waters out of your own cistern [of a pure marriage relationship], and fresh running waters out of your own well. Should your offspring be dispersed abroad as water brooks in the streets? [Confine yourself to your own wife] let your children be for you alone, and not the children of strangers with you. Let your fountain [of human life] be blessed [with the rewards of fidelity], and rejoice in the wife of your youth. 1 Like |

PeaceIlya: Both were hard working. I tried to go that route, I realised it wouldn't be the best route for me. So, I decided to work smart, like not working at all but still making income. Secondly, I learnt a lesson to always resolve any issue with my wife and not allow it to lead to separation for the sake of the kids. |

My dad didn't like to talk much but he was a very very wise man. He has set the bar so high in terms of finding another mentor. I'm yet to find another like him He instilled solid values in me. I don't even know where to start. Hard work, self discipline, ambition, respect for others irrespective of their class, humility, respecting other people's time, being a good person, integrity, standing for what you believe in, vulnerability, kindness, being thoughtful... There are just so many He wasn't perfect but he was amazing 1 Like |

I learnt a lot from my dad though, we're not very close. Work smart not hard. Add value to yourself everyday. The more valuable you are, the more cherished you will be. The secret to success is in the Bible. |

My mum especially. If I had just 10% of her good heart, I'd be okay. She never discriminates. She preaches respect for everyone. She is accommodating, many people lived with us at one point or the other. Many women thronged our house for advice from her. I learnt from her the spirit of mind your business. She taught me never to be money crazed or be materialistic. I've held unto that till tomorrow. From my mum, I learnt how to be a loving mum and a strict disciplinarian. You could excel in both. My dad's attitude is live and let live. Nothing ever irks him. He has never beaten me. He just provides. He is a "hardworker", you can't be lazy around my dad. I learnt from him selfless giving just like mum. The two of them are givers. God bless and keep them for me. |
