Love exist, but it is not easy. All the precious natural resources mined from the ground like gold, crude oil etc must be refined before their beauty or worth or value can be appreciated by all and refining process requires high heating. likewise love must go through a refining process through time to become real love.

mr @poster the love you see in the western world is simply a delusion and not love, it is deception, it is not real but based on mere lust, and infatuation, of which does not last therefore when it dissipates or when the whole feeling stuff dies down, the individuals involved have nothing in common again.

life is filled with good and bad times and true love must always be constant whether it is good or bad. I think the reason why a lot of we humans do not attain this state of true love is because of selfishness and self centredness which leads to satisfying our own selfish desires and lusts. for love to work the two individuals must be committed to each other, if the commitment is from one side, the other partner will get tired with time and thereby the relationship will suffer. so before going into any serious relationship the two partners must be committed to each other, find out what each side likes and dislikes, any common ground and how to address the differences and become compatible.

in fact to maintain real love in a relationship is not easy, it requires commitment to one another because nature of man is filled with many lapses, mistakes, frailties and weaknesses and this weaknesses can rear up from any of the partners during the relationship.


i am not trying to be christian apologist but based on the weakness and mistakes of human nature real love is certified by staying put and still in love despite the weakness and mistakes made from a partner (of which is not easy mere talk but requires serious work). this statement to me is the highest definition of true love 1 Corinthians 13 4 - 7 (Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.)


even I myself has not reached that level of saying i can be able to give real love because as a human with all my weaknesses and frailties it will require a lot of commitment for me but denying that there is nothing like real, true love is delusional, there is true love and my aim in life is that my relationship with my wife( still single but ready to settle down although not yet found the one) will become a real true love relationship that will stand the test of times.

AND ALSO TRUE LOVE IS NOT SEXUAL LUST, FEELING, INFATUATION THAT FIZZLES OUT WITH TIME OF WHICH MANY PEOPLE CALL THE SO CALLED 'FALLING IN LOVE' ALTHOUGH ALSO ON THE OTHER SIDE GOOD RELATIONSHIP IS ENHANCED BY GOOD SEX LIFE BETWEEN THE COUPLE DEPENDING ON THEIR EXPOSURE TO LIFE because THERE ARE THOSE WHO WERE EXPOSED TO SEX MORE THAN OTHERS, AS WELL AS THOSE NOT EXPOSED TO SEX AT ALL.

mr negro like said before we are not looking at niger delta oil because oil does not make a nation greatly prosperous. saudi arabia is the worlds largest oil producer but its GDP and Economy is nothing compared to nations like china, japan, south Korea, Singapore who do not have any natural resources but today are the leaders in global production. in our homeland we will focus on production and manufacturing and global trade, because that is the only true way for any nation to become prosperous of which all the sub Saharan Africa are lacking thereby are poor.

Your claiming that igbo elites have abandoned there homes in east for lagos is a big lie, an average igboman goes back to his home town in the East more than 6 times in a year so he has never forgotten his home, afterall during xmas ur Lagos is dry because most easterners go home. thats the way it will be the day we all decide to go our ways, then let me see what ur Lagos will become.

the igbos are not grabing any land, the day this country citizens decide to go their way we will not ask anybody to join us or grab them. it will just be only south east, let Anioma join Niger delta, but we will not accept anybody when we are developed fully, our borders and immigration will be strict. I am so sure and certain that it will be well for my homeland in no distant future.

today south sudan is now a country, so lets see and wait how things unfold.

@negro after going through your comment i have come to conclusion that you are not smart at all. claiming that oduduwa will swallow igbo is a very deluded statement. You look at Lagos and you think you have anything, hahaha you are deluded my friend, i dont know the parts of the world you have been to but if you have visited some cities like kuala lumpur (malaysia), singapore, taiwan, hongkong, seoul and see the level of world class development of these cities at par with any city in the west etc you will weep for Lagos and know that lagos is a cesspool, slum and nothing to write home about, no planning or modern development. And most of you come here out making noise about lagos or South west, your region is nothing compared to what is seen in the rest of the world dude.

One thing i know is that with steady electricity in Nigeria, the level of industrialization that will spring up in the south east will shock the entire black Africa and the rest of the world, just mark my word. I see in the next 20yrs with steady electricity and industrialization the south east will be highly developed and there will be massive emigration of our people back to our homeland.

And mind you we are not looking at niger delta oil because oil does not make a nation greatly prosperous saudi arabia is the worlds largest oil producer but its GDP and Economy is nothing compared to nations like china, japan, south korea, singapore who do not have any natural resources but today are the leaders in global production more than even the west (mind u the western world if totally messed up economically US economy is going down rapidly due to debt, Europe is in serious economic crisis with the exception of Germany and a little bit of France other european countries are in serious mess including the UK).


so mr@negro one of black man's problem is that he only looks at the now and not 10 20 30 yrs time thats why there is no planning for future, I have lived abroad and back in Nigeria and when i go throughout the country i laugh at how myopic the country are, no planning for the development of tomorrow, only leaving for the now, i look at lagos and laugh no planning and development I heard that Fashola dey do this and that and when i came back i was dissapointed and i had pity for lagosians because what i saw of lagos is absolutely nothing compared to even what you see in some 3rd world cities like Cairo or tunis. but numb skull, dullard, brain dead, backward man and vision-less folks like @negro will come here and be bragging about how Lagos is this or that, at least the only place wey make sense for na only Abuja because it is well planned and developed.

I HEARD ONE DUDE TALKING ABOUT OWNING THE WORLD AND CLAIMING THAT YOU SHOULD GO AND OWN CHINA AND THE ARABS. LET ME SET THIS STRAIGHT  

GOD HAS SHOWN HIS GREATNESS IN THESE OUR TIMES TO THE WORLD THAT HE IS A BIG AND GREAT GOD.

the richest people on the surface of the earth today controlling almost 50percent of the worlds wealth are the Jews, and these are the real heirs and children of our father Abraham. and they are partaking of that Abraham's blessing from God. even the Arabs also who are Abraham's children too partook in their fathers blessings that is why God blessed with almost 70percent of the oil wealth in the world. You see God is a God of wealth, anybody that tell you any other thing is a liar, look at the two races that are connected to God the creator Jews and Arabs through Abraham and see the wealth that God has blessed them Because of their being the seed of his friend Abraham.

Concerning Christians the bible made us to know in Galatians 3; 13 to 14 ; Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is every one who hangeth on a tree vs 14 that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
and also in Galatians 3 vs 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise. these passages are showing us that we the gentiles have become partakers of those Abraham's blessings, which means by believing, acting on and activating that blessing we will receive it and when we receive that blessing it can enable us to become creative, work hard and achieve great things on this earth.

ALL YA AINT SEEN NOTHING YET, THIS IS JUST THE BEGINING;

[b]Pentecostalism is the greatest religious force on earth if u guys dont know and the same pentecostal waves blowing all over the Nigeria cannot be left out. Infact Africa needs this wave and move of God more. A lot of news companies in the west have researched on the impact of Pentecostalism in the world, news groups like new york times, times magazine etc.

Let me show u the impact it has all over the world; One of the biggest pentecostal congregation church in world is located in south Korea pastored by david yongi cho, that church has been able to produce men that have developed members that built world class companies. the owners of Samsung, LG, Hyundai and many other Korean multinationals are members and even ushers int hat church. this is what an impact of a pastor can do on members.

hill song church in Australia has a lot of there members owners of global world class companies, the church has so much impacted Australia that there current Prime Minister recognized their contribution to their country.

Pastor Paul of House on the rock is busy impacting a lot of young people who will go on to change the face of this country and this continent with creative ideas and developing world class African firm. This is not just mere talk, it is a reality. you can keep on hating on, we dont care rather we are determined to bring serious effective change and progress to this country and continent. the black man is not cursed rather he is greatly blessed and we will show case to the whole world that our God is good.

U AINT SEEN NOTHING YET.

[color=#990000]pastor paul does not only preach about money, this year alone he has preached on building a strong prayer life, dieing to the altar. i have been in service where he has blasted young men and women that sleep around and live dirty life. pastor paul is a very balanced preacher, he is an all round and he is building up the life of many young people by teaching them to fear God, think big, believe big, work hard, and impact your society. to me he is a good role model for young people of nowadays especially in Nigeria where every thing has been messed up. so quit all these your bashing you dont know a bit of what is going on there.[/color]

it is all down to mental weakness, inability to use our brains and thought process. there is nothing a white or asian can achieve that we blacks cannot do or even surpass. it is just that we have left the use of our brains, living aloof. if we africans begin to think deep, use our brains, remove brain lazziness and rise up to the challenges facing us we will even surpass the rest part of the world, it is not rocket science it is pure what you put in you will get as output.
