Nairaland General › Why You Must Stop "COMPLAINING" Now! by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 5:57am On Feb 16, 2018

Good Morning all.
From my short experience, i bring before you, few of the core reason why you just have to stop complaining.
1. It solves no problem. The problem is already there. Whether you complain or not, it makes no difference.
2. It is a time wasting factor. If it's a problem you can solve, then there's no point complaining. If it's the one you can't solve, then it's useless to complain. Just get to work and move on.
3. It may in turn, cause emotional defects. Some people, at the cause of their complain, will be forced to remember series of similar events that happened in the past and by that, the weight of them all will just be at heart during that moment.
4. It may limit your ability. Great victory is as a result of solving great problems. Even if yours is complex, you can still give it a try rather than just complaining.
HAVE A NICE DAY.

Education › Some 'Albert Einstein' Quotes That Will Inspire You. by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 6:17am On Feb 14, 2018*

Albert Einstein, the great GERMAN Physist. His life itself will inspire you.
*Anyone who have not made a mistake never tried out something new.
*If you can't explain it to a six year old, then you don't know it yourself.
*You can't solve a given problem at same level that the problem was created.
*The two ways you should live your life are; first, as though everything is a miracle and second, as though nothing is a miracle.
*Wisdom isn't a product of schooling; but as a result of a life long desire to acquire it.
*Logic will take you from A to Z, but imagination will take you everywhere.
*Imagination is the highest form of research.
*We wouldn't have called it 'research' if we already knew it all.
*Give me an hour to solve a problem and i will spend 55mins thinking about the given problem.
*If 'A' is success, then A is x+y+z; where 'x' is work, 'y' is play and 'z' is the ability to keep mouth shut.
*Life is like a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.

Education › Re: Test Your 'MORAL PSYCHOLOGICAL INTELLECT POWER' With This Question. by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 10:59pm On Jan 22, 2018

Phaneroo:
I saw from this that all he spent on the drug was $200 but set the price at $2000. To me this could be much difference ($1800) but still depends on factors such as how many is being sold and the kind of people involved and the stress in developing the drug. I wouldnt conclude that the price is too much without knowing all these.
If at the end this price is worth it, i would blatantly oppose selling it to him unless he has the money .If he persists and he sincerely doesnt have it, i will give him the drug but i would encourage him to pay the rest when he has it. We would regret it at the end if the woman dies and didnt do anything to help. Sometimes scientist/doctor are faced with hard decisions esp in this country. The wicked king in Jesus' sef answered the woman whe she persisted and was sincere. Thanks.

Everything he spent to do his research and produce this drug was $200.. Let's say he is selling it for $2000 cause he is the only one that has it. So?

Education › Test Your 'MORAL PSYCHOLOGICAL INTELLECT POWER' With This Question. by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 8:30pm On Jan 22, 2018

Ray happens to be a scientist.
At the cause of his study, he discovered a certain drug which he spent a total of $200 to fully develop it and at the end, he placed the cost at $2000.
The wife of James was diagonised with a strange illness of which she is expected to live for the next few days unless she takes the 'Ray discovered drug'.
As a man who don't have the full amount to buy this drug, James went to appeal to Ray with the little he had but Ray insisted on full payment.
Through appeal to people around, James was able to raise a total of $1000.
With this money, he went back to Ray to plead again.
This time, he even pledged to pay back the balance with interest but all thesame, Ray won't give in.
Out of frustration, James broke into Ray's home and stole this drug.
QUESTION.
(Based on your own understanding and definition of what moral is)
>Do you think Ray was wicked?
>Should James have broken into Ray's home?
>Who are you in support of and why?
You can challenge other answers with your view.

Nairaland General › What's Your Say About This Argument? by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 7:33pm On Jan 14, 2018

Let's assume a group of 20 men between the age of 25-30 being kept in a room alongside a Lion.
This lion is a grown one that is all fit and these 20 persons don't have anything like a weapon except their bare hands.
Who will make it out alive?
Do you think the men or the lion will win?

Christianity Etc › Re: Why Do Most Christians Fear & Respect Their "CLERGIES" More Than God Himself? by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 10:32am On Dec 31, 2017

We should stop working for the devil , ignorantly ,by posting things that brings down the churches of God gradually like that of Turkey.[/quote]No.. You re getting it all wrong.
When I said 1%, it was just a way to tell you that the true christians by heart are very few.
Secondly, I am not ignorantly working for the devil. A godly pastor won't permit some of the things we see in churches today; which is to say that some of the pastors are actually devil's instrument.
Thirdly, I never made mention that it's wrong to respect a man of God. Just take a look at that picture in my post to understand what am trying to speak against.
Lastly, you say salvation is a personal thing and we should mind our cross. But I tell you that, if you feel a wrong and refuse to speak it out, simply because you are minding your business, the guilt of that wrong will remain with and on you.
People like that will still speak against Catholic Church.
I only aired my observation.
Take it or leave it.
Thanks for contributing.

you are totally wrong.how can somebody respect clergy more than God.my question to op,who created the clergies.if your answer is God then we didn't shows respect to clergies more Than God.In My Own View, Pastor Are Also A Man Like Me, Why Would I Respect Him More Than My Creator.there are some human nowaday that show more respect to pastors/alfas,that is there own problem

I am totally wrong?
Are you trying to say that my claims are not real?
That it's every christian that respects God more than his pastor?
That there are no eye service christians?
That most church members don't build theories to defend the wrong moves of their pastors?
Look, out of a thousand christian, those who worship God re less than 1%.

Christianity Etc › Why Do Most Christians Fear & Respect Their "CLERGIES" More Than God Himself? by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 8:01am On Dec 31, 2017

I have encountered series of religious news in relation to christianity.
In my life as a christian, I discovered that men respect their clergy men more than God.
A man will feel somehow to kneel when praying in the church but will quickly kneel before the pastor for his prayer.
They will always try as much as possible to build up enough theory which will defend the pastor's decisions; not minding what's written in the Bible..
Make themselves to please the pastors but still remain unclean to God.
And so on...
Is it not wrong for my pastor to gain his own respect and even the one meant for God?
Why are those so called 'men of God' not not admitting they are just servants in the house of God?
*Just My View Sha*

Sturmbannfuhrer:
I used to work at a morgue. So there is this thing coroners do to corpses, they tie a small bell to the legs of the dead bodies. Reason is, if a dead body were to waken, the bell rings to tell the coroner the person is not quite dead.

During a heavy rainfall sometime in July, there was this very loud thunder that resounded everywhere. As soon as it subsided, the ringing of tiny bells just started and it went on for about three minutes. My colleague let out a blood curdling scream that night, I'll never forget in a hurry. Ran out of the morgue, resigned the next day. Why the bells rang, no one will ever know. Oh 2017!!

Mine was when I finally decided to get a voters card sometime in September, this year.
After finger printing, it matched with that of someone else who already did his.
On another attempt, it matched with that of someone else, different from the first person.
It made me remain in that place until every other person was settled before I was called upon for another attempt.
This time, it worked on first attempt!
I won't forgive that crazy computer for wasting my time that day..

**Continuation**
On reaching Ibagwa Aka, my dad rented a shop and house.
In the shop, another new business of provision sales was started.
Due to the fact that my father do travel often, in search for better opportunities, my mother became the instant sole manager of the business; not neglecting her initial frying business.
From the two businesses, the major family demands were soughted out.
From there, i made many friends from the neighbourhood which have a notable number of children.
I can still few of their names like Chinedu Eze, Uchenna Eze, Odinaka, Onyinye, Afam, uncle Chiji and also late Aunt Uka. MAY HER SOUL REST IN PEACE.
Due to that religious background, I instantly became a member of the Block Rosary in my area.
Our center is called "The Mother Of Our Creator" Center which is along the Achum Street in Ibagwa Aka.
The name of cordinator then (i don't know if he's still the cordinator) was Bro Sunday Mamah.
A tailor by profession till this day.
As a Rosarian, what was life like?

**Continuation**
CHAPTER TWO: Life After Taraba State.
A certain sharia riot triggered our return from Taraba state.
What caused this riot is what i can't tell till this day but the most said rumor of then placed it as a riot between the muslims and their christian counterparts.
Leaving Taraba by late 2000's, we headed to my maternal home in the Igbo Eze South L.G.A. of Enugu State.
Initially, it was a complete turn over of life as we didn't return with any property.
Thanks to the house which my father already built then.
A four bedroom bungalow.
After our return, my father kept travelling to Taraba alone and returning from time to time until it became obvious that his location of business have to be changed since the state isn't that safe again.
Upon returning to make up for a better place, my dad took we all to a certain Community called Ibagwa Aka in same local government as mine.
The current transportation cost from there to my maternity home is #50.
Guess what happened when he took us there!

**CONTINUATION**
As a growing up kid in Taraba State, the best of my days there were recorded from my time of friendship with Rev. fr. Bature.
Although he is a friend to children but to me, it seem like i was the only legal friend.
He gave me all the freedom that i would ever gave asked for.
I could remember on the occassions of christmas, after going there with my brothers to be entertained.
After that, he will strictly tell us to tell every other child that comes to his house that he's not around..
lolz...
As a grown up, i just wonder why he kept using us to lie then..
It's always fun to be a child.
After then, what next?

Literature › Re: A Short Journey That Never Ends. "My Story Of Life". by AuthoritySpeaks(op): 7:12pm On Dec 15, 2017

**Continuation**
Born into a root-faithed Catholic Family, life was all i could have ever wished for from the initial stage.
My parents, a member of both the church chior and Catholic Charismatic Renawal, were among the best classified figures in the church.
By that, there's this kind of deep relationship between the priests in our parish and my family.
My dad wasn't rich but he was not poor either.
Then, in the setting of Mutum Biu, my dad traded provision and also worked as a Volcanizer.
On the other hand, mum tries to also contribute to the family affairs through the sale of fried yam, bean cake (akara) and other related things.
As the only son of the family, whose father died earlier than expected, my dad at an early age, was faced with the responsibility of taking care of his three sisters.
This and other factors, were what pushed my father out to search for green pastures just after his SSCE.
The wish of my parents were actually to raise a happy home.
Did this wish of theirs turn to reality?

Divepen1:
To start with, your call for criticism sounded like a confrontation. I'm not sure I'm bold enough to stand your prowess. I'm writing firstly as a reader; secondly as a lover of Literature; thirdly as a writertainer; fourthly, on behalf of everyone that might assume you are putting on a wall in your post.
Your story is smeared with a lot of adjectives that are disfiguring the beautiful imagination you're pushing us into. More so, your tense usage is another thing you should deal with. You were oscillating between the past and present tense in your tenses, especially the auxiliary verbs.

Lest I forget, avoid abbreviations like plague. And try to ladden the write-ups with enough things to hooks us.

Try reading on places you can hook your readers. I wrote a version of it here:

Thanks bro.. I just changed some things. Hope it is better now.

****Continued****
As a bait to draw sympathy, many people are found of always telling their sickness story when still a baby but, in mine, I hav/had no story to tell.
Infact, my mother is still unable to recall any memorable event of me falling sick as a child unlike some of my siblings.
The only memorable event, which i can relate to with my childhood (as a baby) can only be linked to the occured changes.
Looking at my then picture, my head was running short of hairs unlike the 'me' of today and I came with a very fair skin..
Probably that had to change because of the northern harsh weather conditions.
Although I can't get a more detailed and advanced information about my stay over their, maybe due to a short stay, but I will tell you that my stay over there had many things to do even far later in my life and it was fun.
I can still remember, without being told, my Catholic Reverend Father Friend, whom i looked forward to just be like when I grow up.
He was more than a friend to me then.

EPISODE ONE.
CHAPTER ONE: The Life Begins.
It was a joyous moment as the cry of a new born is heard in the family of the Mamahs' on the 2nd of May, in the late 90's.
The fourth child, & their third son is born!
Many heard of this; which as a result, numerous number of legs trooped in to confirm as well as to celebrate the goodnews.
The neighbourhood is lively once more!
It all started in the then little community of "mutum biu (hausa)" in the Gassol L.G.A. of Taraba State.
"Although we humans may put up some principles or logics but at the end, God has the final say".
My parents hoped to have me as a girl child (preferably) probably to balance the already available one girl child & 2 boys.
A boy is the first child, a female(and my only sister) as second, while my immediate senior is a boy. Maybe they wanted the circle to move in that form but as nature will have it, it was not as wished.
That was how I became an official member of the family.

In the life of every man, there is always this secret that will always remain with you.
There is always be this experience which you will ever live to remember.
There are also others that we will ever live to regret.
There are some you will always want people to hear of.
There will be some experiences that other ears except that of a trusted friend will never be priviledged to hear of.
Life is always on a both side.
You sad today, tomorrow, you are happy.
You are poor today, tomorrow, you are rich.
You fail today, tomorrow, you succeed.
And more disheartening, we live today but tomorrow, we are gone.
And it becomes a history of our existence.
If the events of life smile at you today, do same in return because you may not be opportuned to do that by tomorrow.
