ADVERSITY HAS ADVANTAGE

adversity:a state of misfortune or affliction

a stroke of ill fortune; a calamitous event; "a period marked by adversities"

the people in iraq as you described are not suffering from this but from terrorism

even God says from adversity shall we Triumph


from adversities shall we rise to discover our strenghts

the case of the niger delta in as much as i think is not a good case study

can also be veiwed from this perspective

a region where the local heads, enjoy the from the labour of others

a land nigeria has gone corrupt on, yet the land has nothing to show for it,

then they had adversity

now that they are taking a fight

they are staging a revolution

and the result of the revolution

we are beginning to see now the significance of the niger delta

about 6yrs they werent acredited as a major minority tribe

now a nation is on its knees because of them

you, olanajim think the way you do because the gains they fight for

doesnt in anyway affect you


me as a case study

until a few years ago ,

i thought life was all vanilla

everything was mapped out for me

i knew who i thought i was ,

but circumstances or adversities

shapened me pretty quick

and things i never knew i had within me

surfaces,

east ender

hmmmmmmmmmmm

am hungry ,

are you sure your vengence would be filling

@poster


that was pretty dumb

and for once i would have to disagree with most people here

cheating on a person is just not the act alone

cheating aint easy, apart from the act you need a mindset for cheating(by not feeling too guilty)

this my dear you sadly lack, the reason why you dont enjoy sex with your hubby is cos you are guilt ridden , sadly so i doubt that situation would change anytime soon


except

1) you continue cheating actively and develop the mindset

2)you come out clean and hope to God he can forgive you(cos we men have a tendency to forget our own misgivings but not our wife's)



thats the bottom line ooo


if you dont do any of this above,i doubt you would get a 100% out of that marriage you would either remain guilty all the time or have little or no cravings for your hubby

its Psychological


all the grammer and eloquence written here , are just words of people that mean well, but dont know sh*t about your situation,

you got you into this ,you definately can get you outta of it



am rooting for you and your marriage working though

hate to see unions breakup, the more marriages work for people the more hope

people like me actually have at making it also work for us

@ islander

who is Curious George?

you got a pet monkey?

well its not the concept the gentlmanish


denotes but, the use and origin of the word itself

over the centuries we have gotten distorted by what brought up

the orginal title


To a degree, "gentleman" signified a man who did not need to work, and the term was particularly used of those who could not claim nobility or even the rank of esquire


and A gentleman is a man of good family

this means that anyone Perceived as not coming from a good familiy isnt one

no matter the said person's personality or conduct

meaning you can be a rogue and still  be termed a gentleman on account of the familiy you spring from

At the last the wearing of a sword on all occasions was the outward and visible sign of a "gentleman"; the custom survives in the sword worn

did you that before the 19th century the use of term gentleman was a doubtful value

because the so termed people where the societal lazy ones who did little but play court to the queen and king



political and social changes of the 19th century gave to it a wider and essentially higher significance


By this usage, the test is no longer good birth, or the right to bear arms, but the capacity to mingle on equal terms in good society.

In its best use, moreover, "gentleman" involves a certain superior standard of conduct, due,  "that self-respect and intellectual refinement which manifest themselves in unrestrained yet delicate manners". The word "gentle", originally implying a certain social status, had very early come to be associated with the standard of manners expected from that status. Thus by a sort of punning process the "gentleman" becomes a "gentle-man".

In another sense, being a gentleman means treating others, especially women, in a respectful manner, and not taking advantage or pushing others into doing things they choose not to do. The exception, of course, is to push one into something they need to do for their own good, as in a visit to the hospital, or pursuing a dream one has suppressed.

In some cases its meaning becomes twisted through misguided efforts to avoid offending anyone; a news report of a riot may refer to a "gentleman" trying to smash a window with a trashcan in order to loot a store.


so the question i need to pose to you all is Who is gentleman?

are you?

apart from the highlight portion there

what attribute is endearing?


to me the japanese 'Samurai ' have value for title than , the french,latin , or italia which is where the 'gentleman was culled from


meanwhile thanks fatty,you actually made me readup some of these yet again
