Every morning, dad will give me one naira note. I'll go to school, feed from it, return home (To and fro Tfare), and return change

Mama of blessed memory will light those and put in our room till dawn.

The best things of yesterday are no more today. The one of today will be no more tomorrow. What is latest or in vogue today will tomorrow be out of fashion and obsolete. Therefore let us think well because today will soon become yesterday and tomorrow will soon be referred to as past.

Material things do not necessarily bring you happiness. That is a fact of life. It is a hard fact to understand sometimes, especially in a society that tries very hard to teach you otherwise.

Sadly, many have taken for granted not only the most basic material needs of life, but so many people act like they must have every material thing this world produces. We get so focused on acquiring "things," on having the most current "thing," that we lose sight of the fact that these material "things" of this world come and go. They are here today and gone tomorrow. In our drive to have the temporal things of this world, we end up paying very little attention to the eternal things of God

AM SERIOUSLY THINKING , WHAT IS LIFE ?
A man is born today, Tomorrow he is dead. A man lives in a mansion today, Tomorrow he lives underground. A man drives a car today, Tomorrow an ambulance drives him. A man reads biology today, Tomorrow a biography is been read of him. A man eats whatever he wants today, Tomorrow he becomes food for insects. A man is always early for work today, Tomorrow he is termed late Mr/Mrs. A man is seen resting in his house today, Tomorrow he is resting in a coffin. And they say "Rest In Peace"!A man eats all kinds of fruits in his house today, Tomorrow he becomes manure to those trees. A man is known today as the richest man ever, Tomorrow he doesn't even know where or what will happen to his riches. What is life after all?

Lifestyle is not a competition and there are different ways to get a lot of things done, different lanes all leading to the same destination. Just because your neighbour is doing things faster does not mean you are failing.

Happiness doesn't come from having everything, but making the best out of what you have, it's all about how you see yourself.

Happiness is not having what you like. Happiness is liking what you have and being contented,

You were born in a first class hospital, I was delivered at home, we both survived.

You went to a private primary school and I went to a public school, we both ended in the same high school.

You woke up from the bed and I woke from the floor, we both had a peaceful night rest.

Your outfits are all expensive, mine are all simple and cheap, we both still cover our unclothedness.

You ate fried rice and roasted chicken, I ate local made food but we both still ate to our satisfaction.

You ride on Lexus jeep, Range Rover, G Wagon, Hummer Jeep and I use public transport but we still got to our various destination.

Don't step on others to get to the top
Don't destroy others to become a success
Don't deceive others to make a living
Stop judging people because you too have your own life to correct.
Don't be a teacher when you are to be a student.
Don't follow the crowd when you don't know what they are following and who they are following.
Don't stop when you are still on your journey.

3 What profit has a man from all his labor In which he toils under the sun?

4 One generation passes away, and another generation comes; But the earth abides forever.

5 The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, And hastens to the place where it arose.

6 The wind goes toward the south, And turns around to the north; The wind whirls about continually, And comes again on its circuit.

7 All the rivers run into the sea, Yet the sea is not full; To the place from which the rivers come, There they return again.

8 All things are full of labor; Man cannot express it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, Nor the ear filled with hearing.

9 That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.

10 Is there anything of which it may be said, “See, this is new”? It has already been in ancient times before us.

11 There is no remembrance of former things, Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come By those who will come after. (Ecclesiastics 1:3-11)

I REPEAT, The best things of yesterday are no more today. The one of today will be no more tomorrow. What is the latest or in vogue will tomorrow be out of fashion and obsolete. Therefore let us think well because today will soon become yesterday and tomorrow will soon be referred to as past.

When you met him, you didn't make it public. So why are you telling the whole now it backfired?

From the word go I tell ladies, open your mind, stay alert. They won't listen.

One mofo on a previous thread said 10 reason why ladies love being around a ¨bad¨ guy. This is one of the result. When you meet a nice guy, you say he is too dull, you want adventure.

As for me, abeg i de choir practice.

Congrats to them

Roland17:
While i do not support the physical abuse meted at the girl, some pertinent question should be asked.


Separating the girl child from her biological family to rewards her behavior is setting bad precedence which would be detrimental for the girl and her family, now and in the future.

Personally, I thought a scheduled counselling/ therapy session for the parents and the girl would be beneficial and should have been the first call. The sessions would assist the parents understand their wrongdoing, while suggesting better ways to handle similar situations, and in the instance that fails, alternatives like adoption should be proffered.

This approach would have been sustainable. Society has only succeeded in breeding animosity between the girl and her biological family. Suddenly, all the sacrifices and efforts of her biological family in raising her have become irrelevant.

Society should actively seek ways to keep families together, not disintegrate families and the institution of marriage in other instances.
