Romance / 8 Signs You Are In A Healthy Relationship by EstarKeys(f): 5:42pm On Mar 17, 2016 |
8 Ways to Know You're in a Healthy Relationship Some signs to look for As anyone who has navigated the world of dating well knows, romantic relationships can create some of our greatest happiness and some of our deepest heartache. They make us think, stress us out and bless us abundantly. Most of us desire to end up as part of a happy couple one day. We want relationships that will last and bring us real joy. And God wants that for us, too. Therefore, it’s important for us to know what a healthy, lasting relationship looks like. We may need to assess the one we’re already in—or we may want to know what to look for in the future. Below are eight key traits of a healthy relationship that can help create the foundation for long-term, side-by-side growth and happiness as God intended: 1. It Feels Stable There is a sense of consistency to the right relationship. This doesn’t mean it’s never hard, but you shouldn’t feel like you’re riding a roller coaster where amazingly happy moments are followed by extremely awful ones. Some people assume a relationship is good because there are good times. But, just as good relationships have hard times, even bad relationships have some good times. The key is recognizing how often the bad times come and how severe they are. There should also be a stability in your own thinking about the relationship. It’s a problem if you feel like you’re wildly in love on Monday, but on Wednesday, you feel ready to end it. 2. You Like Yourself in It Like it or not, dating will change you. The more time you spend with someone, the more you pick up their tendencies, speech patterns and habits. Your partner’s personality will bring out different facets of your own. If you don’t like the person you become around your partner, that is a huge red flag. On the contrary, some personalities will complement yours and help you become a better version of yourself. This can be challenging and hard, but in a way that feels good—like you are growing more and more into who you want to be. Also, in a healthy relationship, you should feel loved and respected. While we are meant to find our self-worth in God, He also wired us to feel good about ourselves when we are being affirmed and cared for. 3. You Connect on the Deep Stuff Small variations in habits, likes and personalities are usually not a bad thing. However, as research has shown, there are some areas couples really need to connect on in order to have a rich and lasting relationship. You and your partner have to be able to agree and dialogue about the big stuff that affects your daily thinking and view of the world. This includes faith, relationships with family and communication. Many people get into and even stay in relationships because they fall in love with surface stuff like affection and the fun they have together. But these things can only take you so far. The best relationships have depth to them, where the couple can practice faith together and communicate meaningfully. 4. You Feel Close to God When Adam and Eve sinned, their inclination was to hide from God. We also tend to hide from God and others if we’re ashamed or we’re doing something we know is wrong—even if we don’t want to face it. How do you feel about praying for your relationship? Besides making you feel guilt, an unhealthy relationship will likely distract you and dampen your interest in God. The right one, however, will help you feel closer to Him, be grateful toward Him and even feel a greater desire for Him. 5. There’s a Mutuality It can be easy to fall into a place of helping someone when they need it, or relying on someone who feels like all we ever wanted. But it isn’t healthy. It prevents us from growing or respecting ourselves, and it doesn’t form a strong foundation for the future of the relationship. The healthiest relationships have a “give and take” to them where both people help one another out relatively equally. There may be times when one partner is struggling, but the dynamic over time should be that of a mutual partnership, not a codependent relationship where one person is the caretaker, and the other person is leaning on them totally. 6. You Feel Safe Obviously, physical safety is paramount in a relationship. But you should also feel safe emotionally. You should feel comfortable around someone; able to be yourself. You should be able to bring up an issue if you’re upset and not worry that your significant other is going to yell and storm off. A relationship can only be successful if both people can communicate honestly and feel safe express their hurt or fears. They need to feel they will be supported, not judged. 7. God is First for Both of You God made us for Himself first. There’s only so much satisfaction we can get from another imperfect human being. The best relationships are those where both people completely enjoy each other, yet also recognize their personal relationships with God are immeasurably more important. Only as we lean into Him will we have the resources to grow and give to others. 8. Friends and Family Approve Let’s face it: Sometimes we just don’t see what’s in front of us when our emotions are involved—or sometimes we just don’t want to see it. That’s where our friends and family come in. These loved ones who know us pretty well, can often recognize if a relationship is good or bad for us. Of course, they don’t always agree. But be sure to listen if you have a few friends and family members who voice concerns over red flags in your relationship. They are concerned because they love you, so be willing to ask for and heed their advice. God’s Desires for Us It’s good to keep in mind the kind of love God has in mind for us. It’s special. It’s a mixture of a comfortable friend and a passionate love (check out Song of Songs). It’s one that will reflect His care for us, bring us closer to Him and to our potential. Too often, we are tempted to settle for less than what He has planned. Along with asking ourselves about the above signs, our best tactic is to pray. Our thinking can only take us so far, but God can reveal what’s really true about a situation, and if we invite Him to, He can lead us to what is right. He loves us enough—and is powerful enough—to bring the best relationships (romantic and otherwise) into our lives. #E.starkeyz |
Politics / Nigeria's Senate Rejects Gender Equality Bill by EstarKeys(f): 8:30pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
Nigerian lawmakers have rejected a gender equality bill that is expected to have eliminated all forms of prejudice against women. On Tuesday, the senate voted against the Gender and Equal Opportunity Bill on the grounds that the constitution has already covered the rights of everyone. Despite the bill not proceeding to a second reading, several senators supported it stating that the gender and equality bill was long overdue. When passed the bill is expected to provided a platform to fight gender discrimination in political and public life while also prohibiting violence against women. The sponsor of the bill, Senator Biodun Olujimi proposed the law to speak on women’s freedom of movement, female economic empowerment and access to education for the girl child. |

Romance / How To Make Everybody Like You by EstarKeys(f): 3:37pm On Mar 13, 2016 |
Yeah,everyone kant like u, but Here are 5 easy steps to make pple likeu very easily.. 5.Look good For some strange reason most people associate likeability and attraction with physical appearances. These people have it all wrong. While physical appearances do play a role in likeability it is a tiny one and when you get down to it, it is your personality and behavior that really make a difference. But still, need to look open, honest, natural, friendly, outgoing and clean.Be clean and have good hygiene. Having shampooed hair, kept nails, clean teeth, and fresh-smelling pits really makes you more appealing to the people around you. Guys, if you choose to wear facial hair, that doesn't mean you don't have to groom it. 4. Your body language A half of any conversation is done through body language. Without noticing it, other people pick up signals that you send through your body. Remember the smile thing? Also, when you are talking to someone do not distract on you smartphone, or tv or anything else. Avoid the unconscious body language that signals boredom or disinterest. Crossing your arms at your chest tells other people that you're bored and don't want to be talked to. This might seem small but it makes a big difference and makes the other person feel that you care. So for example rather than just saying yes you should nod your head, smile, and use the rest of your body to show your approval. 3.Ask for help Well, we already know that people like to talk about themselves, but there is one more thing that every person likes and does: people LOVE giving advice. If you want someone to like you - ask him/her for an advice. You think it should be in reverse but it's not.This is known as the Benjamin Franklin effect, after Franklin’s legendary technique for turning his bitterest rivals into his closest friends. By asking a stranger for their help – getting some advice to settle a disagreement, wanting to know where they got those boots, what they think about the brand of phone they’re using – we’re asking them to do something nice for us. Since doing nice things for people usually means we like them, it follows that they must like us because they’re doing us a favor. 2.Pay attention This may sound a little weird, although it's true. People are very interested in themselves and if you take the time to notice they love to talk about themselves. All you have to do is be interested in them. Be genuinely interested in the other person, and for those few minutes make them the only attention in your life. This doesn't mean you shouldn't take part in a conversation - ask questions, show some interest, no one likes to talk to a plant. 1.Smile What does the smile mean? It means that you are happy. If you're saying "hi" to someone with a big, sinciere smile on your face - this person fairly thinks that you're happy to see him/her. Smile is a message of pleasure and happiness you are sending to everyone including yourself. And tell me: have you ever seen a forever-grumpy person that everyone liked? I don't think so!Positivity and happiness are universally attractive and liked. A simple smile to one of your co-workers can make his/her day. So don't underestimate this powerful weapon. Why not add yours? Lalasticlala# |
Career / Purpose by EstarKeys(f): 9:37am On Mar 11, 2016 |
I created this work and i jux felt like sharing this piece with us.jux read with ease,thanks! This life jux goes in circles,and circles. we all know what a circle looks like.u jux tend to move round and round and round without a prominent end. Life isn't jux about working so hard. It isn't jux about aiming for the best,because the worst will always come. No matter how perfect ur life maybe presently,U don't have evrything. YES! Nobody has everything. We jux strive to get what we need,and it doesn't always come. Almost every individual wants to study a proffesional course,we all want to be regarded in a "BIG" way,but dats not wat life is all about. Some of us are pushed into doing what we do not enjoy doing all because of pressure with peer groups and family members. Life is all about PURPOSE. Discover your purpose and ur life will radiate to the core. YOu don't shine where someone else shines. Being different is a spectacular strategy to getting to the greatest heights in life. What makes you unique amongst ur friends? What is that something your known for? Why not work hard towards it than push it aside and clinging tight to ur academics? See, u go to school to get a certificate,and u know wat? A certificate is a mere piece of paper bearing ur name nd ur acquisation in ur past years in school though it fetches you a great deal,buh most times,it aint enough. You live an average life with it. Do not be dismayed about your present situation now. your friends might be studying a lucrative course now,and your still bent on getting an admission. Do not worry,your case is different. "Its not about howfar you've gone in life,but how well". The greatest men and women we have known so far are those that went through the most painful experiences in life. They were those dat were being looked down upon. They were those dat made the least grades in school. Don't mind wat pple say about you,because "those dat mind don't matter and dos dat matter don't mind. Why don't we discover our purpose. The world will be a better place instead of dwelling on the acient era. Things have changed. You can change your priorities today. No time is late. I will leave you with a question.."WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE?...#E.starkeyz# ...Iforall#, crazyman# 1 Like |

Romance / Before You Date Someone (e.starkeyz!) by EstarKeys(f): 1:34pm On Jan 05, 2016 |
BEFORE YOU DATE SOMEONE. ...Spur one another on toward love and good deeds.(Hebrews 10:24) NIV. Here's some advice for makin ur dating experiences something u can feel good about afterwards.Not everyone is meant for us.Dating isn't jux a childs play,its a serious thing,its like a covenant,buh pple misuse it in the wrong way. I know no beta,but I created this lil piece myself to lead dat someone reading dis,deris always someone.and more of my piece are yet to come in my next episode.tnk u. 1. BE SPIRITUALLY PREPARED. Talk to God while u are geting ready.Time spent before the mirror is important but time spent with God,is all important.This is neva more much to do when ur looking for dat someone to spend ur lyftym with.Its a great step to take. 2.TALK OPENELY ABOUT SEX BEFORE IT BECOMES AN ISSUE: U gotta talk about this in the positve way.physical intimacy is a wonderful thing,but the Bible confines it to marriage where two pple are committed to one another.So think protectively and proactively.Genuine love doesn't say "if u loved me u would"... It says "I love you too much to take advantage of u or cause u pain or ask u to do something u feel is wrong and dat you will feel bad about tomorrow"..(Ist corinthians 13) 3.LIMIT THE TIMES YOU ARE ALONE. A second alone is enuf to ruin ones destiny,it doesn't takea life tym.It can easily lead to things you will regret leta.When ur friends start saying they neva see u any more, chances are dat u are becomin too exclusive and setting yourself up to failure.Don't alwaz date as a couple,spend time in the company of others too.It even helps to boost ur relationships with pple out there.Dnt live together.you re not married yet. 4.DO IT RIGHT THIS TIME. If you have been permissive in past relationships, don't be discouraged. "If we confess our sins,he is faithful nd just to forgive" . That means u kan start again with a clean slate. No tym is late.no time is erly eida.there is no end to anything except DEATH. Av lernt dat de strongest relationships alwaz put God at de center.They strive to demonstrate de kinda love paul describes in 1st cornth 13.LETS MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY....tanks for reading!!!

Food / The Secret Behind Storing Yams So It Doesn't Grow Moulds by EstarKeys(f): 1:44am On Dec 12, 2015 |
How To Store Cut Yam So It Doesn’t Grow Moulds. “howdo I properly store a cut yam?”, “how can I storeyam after I cut it without spoiling?”. We are goingto talk about this topic today in order to addresstheir questions. Often we buy large tubers of Yamand need to only cook a small portion of it when weneed to eat. So, what are you going to do with theremaining tuber? If you leave it that way, it growsmould and gets spoiled or turns brown and hardthat you have to peel it off. When the questions came, I though this shouldnot be a problem for anyone because there is away I saw mum do it while growing up and itworked every time. So, I took some time out andspoke to different people, asking them how theypreserve their cut yam tuber. I got a lot ofinteresting answers and I will address the mostshocking one first.Someone told me she just leaves the yam thatway and cut off the spoiled part when next sheneeds to cook the yam. Well, I would say that isnot proper and safe for the following reasons;Why waste that part of yam that you cut away?You could save that yam by preserving it properly.When your yam grows mould and you cut thecontaminated part away, do you think theremaining part of the tuber is safe?You know why this is wasteful and unsafe? Mouldis a fungi and when they grow on foods, fungibreak the food down and make us of it. They growtheir HYPHAE (the part that looks likemicroscopic roots) into the dissolved food. So,when you cut off the mould growth on the surface, you could still have the hyphae left in theremaining yam. The root is as unsafe as dangerousas the growth, sometimes more dangerous. Don’tcauseFood Poisoning for yourself. NEXT [2]. :: Tip For Preserving Cut Yam ToPrevent Mould Growth…So how can you store your cut yam?Here are some of the tips I have used and othersthat I got from people I spoke to; Tip.Number 1 : One of our respondents, supportedby some others said “I cut the quantity of yam Ineed and just put the rest back in the fridge”. Ithink this makes sense because these organismsneed elevated temperature to grow, thereforestoring them at low temperature like that in therefrigerator inhibits their growth. Tip Number 2: “Cut the piece you need andimmediately put the other end in a small bowl with2 centimeters water.” I tried this before and itworked, but I did not store it for more than twodays. If you have ever tried it for a longer period,let us know. This probably prevents the exposedpart from atmospheric oxygen, which aids thegrowth of the spoilage organisms. .NEXT [3] :: Tips Number 3 and Number 4…Tip Number 3: Growing up, I applied palm oil on thesurface of the Yam that I have left and it workedfine. Tip Number 4: A reader of FoodsNG alsorecommended this, “rub the exposed, cut, rawflesh with lemon juice, it cuts down on thebrowning and prevent mould growth”. 1 Like |
