Romance / Air Your View On Women Empowerment, My Observations by berndodlion(m): 1:53pm On Jun 15, 2016
[/b]I would start by saying women empowerment is good. There are few things I have against it.
1. Have you observed that men are no longer hired in sales department of many companies.
2. Initially, when a guy is toasting a gal, she is shy and most times bends to draw map with her leg. Now most guys become dumb or stammers when talking with a gal.
3. If you divorce your wife, you leave the house until proven otherwise. If she divorces you the worst.
4. Just see this Job advertisement

Breaking up is really hard thing to do but we can't stop if someone we love will leave us. I still have that break up letter he made. I love to keep valuable things grin
Keeping the letter is like holding to your past, discard it and forget him. If keep holding on to the past, you won't have have the fullness of the future

Had an accident after seeing him off, was admitted and spent two weeks writhing in pain cos I was badly injured and stitched. The dude came one faithful day and called it off reason being my 'beautiful' face won't be as it used to. I cried, reported him to God and moved on. New guy came onboard and helped me through, I became more "prettier." Years later, dude had a devastating accident that left him imbecilic, now he's back asking for my hand in marriage saying God showed him I'm his wife. I just laughed.
That guy is confused and stupid same time. Eaten his cake and expecting to have it back. Tell him that it is the devil showing him and not God.

Literature / It Is Not Late by berndodlion(m): 11:36am On May 07, 2016
#YOU_CAN_STILL_MAKE_A_TURN

The rain had just stopped but the cloud was still dark. It looks like it will still rain. I hurried out of the house, wouldn't miss fellowship today because I haven't been to it for a week now.

I was stopped from attending fellowship by these same weather and not today again. Reaching the park in a hurry, boarded a bus. It looks like the bus was heading to my destination.

I wasn't sure but from how it parked and with the kind of people inside, it certainly must be going my way. I never bothered to ask them, I thought it must be late now since we just moved and the last person was told that the bus is filled.

Even if it wasn't going my destination, how can I just stop now. It will look stupid as I talked within me. Reaching the roundabout that will determine its direction, it was now certain that it was going opposite my destination.

I can't drop here now, this roundabout is still close to the bus stop. How will they look at me as I pondered. We were now further the way.

No, I must drop now, I don't even know the area where the bus was going. At least I know here better, I can trace my way to the fellowship from here. But the distance is more than 2km. I finally dropped. I waited a little for bike but couldn't see anyone.

I didn't have any option than to trek. I made it to fellowship finally but about 10mins late. If I had dropped earlier, I would have been 15mins earlier.

We most times make assumptions in life. We see a person or organization and assume it is a good association. We see how they dress, talked and act and we say that's the way we will do as well.

Some have even chosen a wrong course of study because they think is their calling. That it worked for A doesn't mean that it will work for B.

Many have realised that they are heading the wrong direction but yet are afraid of people to make a turn. It is your life and not theirs and you are responsible for any decision you make be it good or bad.

It is better to make a decision for the right because the consequences of the wrong can be great. It doesn't matter how long that relationship has lasted as far as it's not leading to the right destination, unboard (end it) now.

Some one said that it is better to have a broken relationship than a broken marriage.

It is not late yet

7 Reasons You Should Not Live With Your Partner Before Marriage

Men and women have very different ideas about what living together means. Women typically see it as an almost inevitable step toward marriage, while men see it as a no-obligation “test drive.” Couples who initiate a live-in relationship under the fog of such contradictory assumptions are already in trouble

Cohabitation is a big step to take in any relationship and both parties involved have to consider a lot of factors before living under the same roof.

Couples in such relationships may grow apart in the long run if they lived together for the wrong reasons. This is one bad side of couples cohabiting.

If you and your partner are thinking of living together, here are some wrong reasons why you may want to reconsider that option:

1. To avoid or hasten a marriage proposal: This is specifically for the men, as much as living together means everything except that you aren’t married to her. Slowing down on a marriage proposal or hastening it may be a wrong reason to live together.

2. To help you discover yourself: You can never discover your true self by living with your partner. Rather, moving in together would complicate things for both of you.

3. To save cash: If you think you’ll save more money by moving in with your partner, it’s better to go get a roommate. Couples who decide to do this should have good jobs so one doesn’t become a liability to the other.

4.To avoid Being Used: You’ve heard the old expression, “Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?“It’s an ugly phrase, but there’s some truth to the message. Living together results in regular, no-strings sex for especially a man, thus removing the sexual motivation that is part of a marriage proposal. And don’t worry about his proposing just to bed you — there are too many sexually available women out there for a man to propose marriage just for sexual release.

5. Living together takes the excitement out of being newlyweds: Being a new bride and moving in with your husband to start a life — and perhaps a family — with those shiny new rings on your fingers to show the world your commitment, is a wonderful experience that many women still hope for. Put the cynics and haters on ignore — their bitterness reflects their own choices and reality, not yours. Many, many couples still live “happily ever after” after marriage and you can, too. You just need to know where you want to go in life, and what choices are most likely to get you there.

6. Couples who live together are less likely to get married: Cohabiting couples tend to have a more lax attitude toward commitment and don’t work as hard to stay together. When their relationship goes through a rough spot — as all relationships do — it is all too easy to just walk away. The legal and public commitment of marriage motivates couples to work through conflict, strengthen the relationship and stay together.

7. If you have kids, they need to be protected: Very few unmarried couples who have children end up staying together in other words. Without the commitment of marriage there is no real guarantee of what can happen to your kids. Many kids end up being molested and abused by their parent’s partner just because most of these partners don’t see themselves as parents to the kids of their unmarried partners. Of those couples that do keep their relationships intact until their children are grown, 93 percent of them are legally married.

This is important, since children who are raised by both biological parents in a low-conflict home are more likely to be emotionally and psychologically healthy than children whose parents are cohabiting or divorced. They are less likely to experience mental health or behavioral problems, or to live in poverty.

Romance / Your Biggest Problem In Relationship by berndodlion(m): 8:12am On May 05, 2016
One of the biggest problem we have in relationship is listening. As simple as it is but its caused a lot of damage.

There is a great difference between listening and hearing. Most times when couples discus and the woman is like are you listening to me? the man says be talking, am hearing.

The person in question is either watching television or pressing phone. You can't fully understand your partner well if you don't listen to her. What you probably heard may not be what she meant because her body movement or her eyes can communicate what her words can't express.

Try and put away all distraction both physically and emotionally. Listen one more time and see the difference.
This will help you especially when you are married.

You will thank me later guys.

That was the title of the poem. Many of you must have come across it or probably memorized it. It is in one the Junior Secondary School Intensive English.

Just a little extract of that poem by Rudyard Kipling. It is a father's advice to his son of what maturity is.

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise

Initially, it never made sense to me not until recently I began pondering over it. I realised that this is what maturity entails.

If you keep doing the right thing and staying on it even when no one believes in your success. If you can keep your virginity in a society where virginity is captioned lack of opportunity.

If you can remain truthful in a world where everyone lies and lie is regarded as small sin. Even where lies is categorised as necessary lies.

When they hate your sincerity and personality and all you do is showing them unreserved love.

And in all this, you are still yourself, not puffed up. Not regarding yourself as being better than them.

Romance / Why Are Ladies This Way? by berndodlion(m): 3:13pm On May 04, 2016
#ThinkingInText

Since UI was closed down due to demonstration by students (Non Academic Students), everyday seems to be a Saturday.

For sometime now I have been having reading disorder, what I call #SLEEPREADING SYNDROME. After I discovered that not having a reading table and chair increased the effect of this disorder, I bought myself one.

One of those numerous Saturdays in the week which was actually a Friday, I sat on this my beautiful table trying to experiment. Still trying to go through what I noted down in class, he then worked in making a call.

I continued reading as though very serious, when he said something which I guessed was a question put across to him. I realised he was on call with a female friend of his which he confirmed.

What is your secret desire? That was the question. Such an innocent question but with a deep meaning. He answered but she was not satisfied. She now rephrased it ' What is your secret desire concerning me?'

What he answered is not my problem now. I would advise us, please don't say what you don't mean in order to make someone happy.

There is this stupid philosophy that most people have believed 'Anyone who doesn't lie to his partner has no respect for the person's feelings. That's a big lie. You don't need to lie to anyone to make them feel happy because when they find out the truth you would have lost your trust.

It hurts more when people find out that you have been lying to them. Be yourself and be plain, it may hurt a little then but you would have saved a future.

I don't mean you should be so blunt and inconsiderate but show a little diplomacy and maintain your integrity. Your integrity matters a lot and let people respect you for your honesty.

By the way, Is it wrong for a gal to tell a guy her feeling before the guy does? After all they said ladies first.
Please give reasons for your answer.

Science/Technology / NASA Confirms Earth Will Experience 15 Days Of Complete Darkness by berndodlion(m): 9:09am On Sep 25, 2015
WASHINGTON, D.C. (NEWSWATCH33) – NASA has confirmed that the Earth will experience 15 days of total darkness between November 15 and November 29, 2015. The event, according to NASA, hasn’t occurred in over 1 Million years. Astronomers from NASA have indicated that the world will remain in complete darkness starting on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at 3 a.m. and will end on Monday, November 30, 2015 at 4:15 p.m. According to officials, the ” November Black Out” event will be caused by another astronomical event between Venus and Jupiter. Charles Bolden, who was appointed to head of NASA by President Obama, issued a 1000 page document explaining the event to the White House. According to the report, on October 26, 2015, Venus and Jupiter will engage in a close parallelism, only being separated by 1 degree. Venus will pass to the southwest of Jupiter, causing Venus to shine 10 times brighter than Jupiter. The light from Venus will heat up the gases on Jupiter causing a reaction. The gaseous reaction will release an unprecedented amount of Hydrogen into Space. The Hydrogen gas will make contact with Earth’s sun at approximately 2:50 a.m. The amass amount of Hydrogen making contact with the sun will cause a massive explosion on the Sun’s surface. The explosions will cause the Sun’s surface temperature to increase to 9,000 degrees Kelvin in an instant. The sun will then attempt to cease the explosions by emitting heat from its core. The heat will cause the Sun to dim to a bluish color. Once the sun reaches the bluish color, it will take approximately 14 days to restore its normal surface temperature, returning its normal color to the Red Giant. While the sun is cooling the surface, the light from the sun will be much dimmer. Because it takes anywhere from 7 to 8 and a half minutes depending on the Earth’s rotation for light from the sun to hit Earth, people GV will not know the event has happened until 2:58 a.m. on November 15th. Some areas of the world may experience brief moments of light for 7 to 8 minutes, but the Earth will then go back to complete darkness until the Sun’s surface temperature has been restored.

Politics / Defected Ex-pdp Chairman, Inokoba, Dies by berndodlion(m): 5:09pm On Sep 02, 2015
A leader of the All Progressives Congress in Bayelsa State and former Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, Col. Sam Inokoba (retd.), is dead. Inokoba, who on Saturday, August 15, 2015, led other PDP heavyweights and faithful to defect to the APC, died in the early hours of Wednesday. It was learnt that the APC leader died at the age of 66, a month to his 67th birthday, at the Military Cantonment Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos State. Though the cause of his death has yet to be known, a source very close to the retired Colonel told our correspondent in confidence that Inokoba died of food poisoning. Before his demise, Inokoba’s health had been generating some concerns as he was alleged to have slumped on some occasions at public functions. www.punchng.com/news/defected-ex-pdp-chairman-inokoba-dies
Politics / DESOPADEC: Udu Youths Give 7 –day Ultimatum, Threaten To Shut Down Oil Wells by berndodlion(m): 5:03pm On Sep 02, 2015
ASABA- ANGRY youths of Udu , Udu Local Government Area in Delta State, have given the state government a seven-day ultimatum to address alleged marginalization of the area in the reconstitution of the board of the Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission, DESOPADEC, or they would shut down oil wells in their location. The union made the challenge in a letter dated September 1, to the Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, signed by the chairman, Comrade Sunday Subi. They said the state government has not appointed any Udu indigene as commissioner or head of department in the oil commission since establishment, whereas Ughelli South and Uvwie in the same bloc have served on the board with Ughelli South re-appointed when Udu has not taken a bite. Their words, “We hereby issue a seven-day ultimatum to the state government to wade into this matter and reverse this ugly trend in the interest of equity, peace and justice. The hallmark of the present administration is prosperity for all Deltans and not prosperity for a section of the state.” “In the face of the unprovoked marginalization of the Udu people in matters relating to DESOPADEC, we the Udu people, particularly the youths who, hitherto, have conducted ourselves in the most dignifying and law abiding manner have clearly realized that our simplicity is being mistaken for cowardice. We may have to pick up the gauntlet to prove to all and sundry that we are no fools, to rescue Udu from this wantonly wicked marginalization.” They asserted, “We, therefore, use this medium to call on your good self to reverse this trend, otherwise, we the good people of Udu and indeed the youths shall resort to self help by shutting down all oil wells and installations in Udu as a first step to register our grievances.” The group warned, “This may be our last communication with you and the government of Delta state on the above subject matter except our request is acceded to within the shortest possible time. We refuse to be second- class citizen in any guise, just as we reject the yoke of hewers of wood and fetchers of water for others in Delta state.” linkis.com/www.vanguardngr.com/g2eNM#

Family / Tips For A Success Marriage Life For Women by berndodlion(m): 3:41pm On Sep 02, 2015
SOME THINGS A MUM TEACHES HER DAUGHTER BEFORE MARRIAGE AND EVEN WHILES MARRIED

1. My daughter, don’t cause a separation between your man and his siblings; it could be dangerous for you when they finally speak with one voice.

2. My daughter, I know that some of you girls don’t wish to marry a man whose mother is still alive, don’t ever think like that, if you do, well, I think your son’s wife- to-be should start wishing you're dead now.

3. My daughter, listen to me, when I married your father, he was as tiny as his salary but I chose to grow with him and today, those cars out there are some of the results of what we started so little, together, and we’re proud looking at them.

4. My daughter, there is this thing i see happening in your time, some of you girls now get pregnant before the wedding day, well, it never happened in our time because no matter what, we never opened our laps before the wedding.

5. My daughter, well, yes, I once locked up the cloth of your father because I got to my limit of patience and that was the only thing I could do, but one thing I haven’t said was that we settled the issue that same day and that was the last time I tried that.

6. My daughter, when your Father was riding a bicycle, I was always happy to hop on it and ride with him, not because I didn't see those men in their little cars but because my eyes also saw those men trekking to their farms.

7. My daughter, if you and your husband eat a little food with love, you both would be satisfied. Times are not always the same; support him in every phase he’s passing through.

8. My daughter, don’t ever close your laps to your husband in bed , the day he paid your dowry was the day you lost your will to do so, don’t be stiff and try to satisfy him even if you were angry with him.

9. My daughter, under the cocoa tree that I did meet with your Father was open and good enough for our discussions, yes; it was open and good enough if you understand what I mean.

10. My daughter, in our time, we had sexy legs and firm bosoms to show our men, in fact, we had the finest ones, yet, when we dress, we cover those parts of our body, not because we were not civilized as you people would call it, but because we know that the eyes of men are hungry, many of them would only come, touch and go their way.

11. My daughter, there is this thing you girls now practice, they say it’s feminism. Well, you can prove to be equal to a man in the society but please, not in your marriage because at my old age, I don’t want to start counting your husbands.

12. My daughter, marriage is not a Rehabilitation Center, if he’s not good enough for you before marriage, nothing he does would be good enough after marriage.

13. My daughter, you can see I still wear my night gown, yes, because to my husband; your father, I still want to look sexy. So, take good care of your body, look good for your man and don’t look like a grandma after giving birth.

14. My daughter, I’m your mother and still, I'm not interested in you coming to me always if anything goes wrong with your husband. Though nowadays I see some mothers controlling the homes of their sons and daughters, I would only say; shame on them!

15. My daughter, for you to have a peaceful home and well-trained children, have one voice with your husband, join him to say NO when he’s saying NO before the kids but later when you both are alone, you can plead with him for a YES, if not, the children will see a loophole to misbehave, either to you or their father.

16. My daughter, your generation does not see any pride in been a virgin before marriage, it’s a shame! Your father met me a virgin and he brought more yams to my parents and up till today, he’s still proud of me when we discuss in that direction.

17. My daughter, I know that no man out there is complete, but when you are looking for your tall, slim, fair and handsome, if he’s a woman-beater, please, go for the short, fat, dark and ugly that will give you the respect you deserve as a woman.


18. My daughter, when I say over 52 years of marriage, it wasn't that I did not see any reason to leave your father, I saw a lot of them but I bear his faults, i forgave him to stay marff My daughter, these are part of the wisdom i have gathered over the years. And If I had taken my time to tell you all these, and your marriage doesn't last like that of your father and I, then I had wished i never gave birth to you.
