BusinessRe: Why Are Nigerians So Quick To Accept Inflation? by kumulus(m): 12:20pm On Nov 06, 2021
SeaTrade:
It is very bad and terrible out here honestly,price hike across a value chain and people keep patronising like nothing happened.
It is making me think that Nigerians are not as poor as they claim,they just want to play pity party.
No, it isn't pity party. We Nigerians are just plain stupid...can't tell our left from right, both rich and poor.

The average Nigerian sees inflation as an opportunity to make more money wether he/she provided goods or set, they fail to see the overall effect. They become more entrenched in the rat race.... They make "more" to spend much more lol.

Imagine the garri seller making the excuse of inflated garri prices being higher dollar-naira rates....at the end of the day he/she will buy other goods and services at inflated prices as well. The ratio never stands in his favor.

Whether you Believe in GOD or Not, You know that the World is not Normal. You know there is Something wrong with the Earth.

Allover the world, there are Unprecedented, Brutal and Apocalyptic Fires, Floods, droughts, Heatwave, earthquakes, Hurricanes, plagues, Famine, Pestilences etc.

The World is witnessing live the Shadows of the Coming Wrath of GOD on this Earth.

KING JESUS SAYS, (Luke 21:28)
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.


JESUS is Coming! The RAPTURE is By the Door! There is No doubt about it.

FamilyRe: Why Do Kids Become Bitter Towards Separated Parents? by kumulus(m): 7:50am On Sep 26, 2021
Often we make the erroneous conclusion of thinking divorced parents or those parents living separately are "separated" where in fact the case of separation is far from being a physical thing, far from it. I believe the character displayed by the child in such situations is 'apathy', arising from the differences in desires, the child wants the parents to be peaceable with each other and can't/won't understand why they cannot be but the adults fail to see this overly exerting demand of the child because their individual sense of reason has become impaired by ego, unforgiveness, resentments and such other ill thought forms. The child worries over them for too long and loses his/her self in the midst of these thoughts (mitotes), his/her peace is gone. In the most poorly managed cases, peace of mind could've become ever evasive. Now this child becomes very unforgiving towards the party he/she perceives to be in the wrong.

It's a shake so many children had to grow up as internally displaced individuals even while living with their parents and family, the topic of child psychology/development is one that need be taught to parents and intending parents effectively...an area where imo there's great failing. The government, religious bodies and other such social institutions should be more responsible and create avenues to realign the people on the path of becoming informed.

Do you have an idea of the population of Nigerians who are actively suffering from PTSD, ASDs and other such psychological conditions without even having the slightest awareness. I'd shown symptoms of ASD all my life and I didn't know until last week, neither did my parents. There are many sufferers amongst us, we need healing. The family units in most societies actually be doing the most effective damage to people but this topic goes undiscussed. Years of perpetual abuse by those authorities in our lives as we grew had left majority damaged, behaving badly even when the intentions aren't so yet not able to understand why you do things the way you do. Misunderstood and misjudged by the society, the problem get worse even, only recourse b comes self awareness, self knowledge and from that, effective self development.

The elders of our land would say; "bí ikú ilé ò pa ni, tí ò de ò lè pa ni" (the enemies of your father's house as the church people will put it grin) and "ilé ni a tí ñkó èsö r'òde"......

I hope we rise to fix our many ills.....

Christianity EtcRe: Why Is My Prayer Not Working? - Pastor Bolaji Idowu by kumulus(m): 11:21am On Sep 19, 2021
anointedlinks:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5doncDfkT20

Paraphrased excerpts

Some people ask, why should I pray? God should already know what I want.

Prayer is permitting God to do what we want (e.g. A landlord has to get authorization to enter in his tenant's flat and fix faulty plumbing, so also God has to be given authorization through your prayers, for Him to act in your life).

He will not override your will.

Place a date on your prayer requests so that they don't bounce like an undated cheque.

Enquire from God why your prayer is not working (e.g. A cheque with inconsistent writing of the amount in words and figures will bounce, and you have to go to the bank to ask why, so you can correct that).

Never pray to God on the basis of your works (e.g. God I'm a worker in the church and still not financially blessed, why Lord?) because for every good thing you've done, you have done many bad things as well.
Pray on the basis of Jesus's righteousness.

Nothing withholds answered prayer like guilt, because anywhere there's guilt there can't be faith.

Your prayer requests should be specific so you can have specific solutions. E.g. If you ask for capital, but need 150 million capital, you may get 1 million in capital and not know that your prayer has been answered.

Most people don't ask specifically because of doubt that it will be answered.

Being specific helps to form an image in your mind that helps you recognise the answer when it comes (if you ask to see a white car on the road that is yours you may not know when it comes, but if you ask for a specific model with your name on it, the case will be different). Being specific helps your faith become focused.

The more specific your prayer, the more you release the potential of your human spirit (e.g. don't say I want a peaceful marriage, say "I want a marriage where I'm treated in xyz way."wink

Any prayer that does not touch you, cannot touch God. Your prayer must be heartfelt and with thought.

Some prayers can be mouthful but not heartfelt i.e. so loud but disconnected.
It's difficult to pray about what you're not connected to.

You can't push out power from an empty heart the same way an empty perfume bottle cannot push out fragrance until it is filled with liquid.

Ajiswaggs:
By January next year, I'm very sure they will still release IPhone 14 for 1millionaire. They know we Africans are mumu when it comes to material things.
It's not expensive because "Africans are mumu"....the manufacturers are not responsible for the comatose economy of these African States. The price range definitely wouldn't differ much (if there be any difference at all) from what we pay in the Americas and Erurope.

Boldly call your Brother and tell him he is an abominable fellow and that if he does not Desist from such Wickedness, you will Have no Choice but to open up His atrocities.
So you're asking him to condemn his brother and cover his wickedness, omor my eyes don see something today o.


@OP It's not a phonecall issue as some already suggested, pay the family a visit and find urgent means of taking the girl away to some place 'safer'. Tread carefully tho, a wrong step could make things worse. The wife did a very wise thing by reaching out to a trusted family, don't fail her!!

abbey621:
Some people in life too dey act script....Nigga you ain't more attractive than the average Joe, in fact any average guy can get women to look his way with just one constant, MOOLAH! Now to the bigger issue, what's love got to do with bumbing of skin? The sooner you realize physical attraction does not require emotional attraction, the better you are at fixing your situation. There's a reason why professional therapists recommend young people to date as much as possible, to experiment and have fun so that, when they finally do decide to pick a lifetime partner they would be experienced to know there's nothing out there they haven't explored. They would be 10 times more likely to focus on emotional bonding than physical. Just have sensible fun, be honest with the girl and leave the rest.
By being honest do you mean telling her straight up you want sex?

Perfection at the mental realm is what impedes growth or advancement. At the level of fleshing out ideas, perfection can never be over emphasized. Putting in ONLY the best effort can guarantee a certain outcome, faster and more effective results.

CelebritiesRe: Davido's Aide & Associate Obama DMW Dies Of Heart Failure (Pics) by kumulus(m): 9:05am On Jun 30, 2021
Take care of your mind folks, it's convenient to say it was drugs, alcohol and/or stress. People go through a whole lot of shit they're bottling up inside that's eating them up and putting too much PRESSURE on their hearts (I believe there's a science behind this). Last year I was having a hard time and thankfully I paid attention to my body and it's functioning, I noticed I wasn't breathing fine. My breaths were short-spanned and lacking depth and I was beginning to feel pains in my heart, I wasn't doing drugs nor alcohol at this time but I was worrying alot. I was horribly mind troubled and knew I had to take a break. Left where I was to spend two months at my old folk's, gratefully I touched base with myself and got back on track.

Pay attention to your mental health fellas, that's the root of all ailing and eventual death if proper care isn't taken.

Learn technical analysis, start with YouTube. Be sure to look out for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) traders, SMC offers the easiest strategies I know. Focus on understanding market structure and liquidity, these are the two key pillars price action on all asset classes are built on. Trading crypto goes a bit further tho, you'll have to research the coin or instrument to know it's potentials and future acceptability and relevance. Gird yourself fir some bumpy ride, trading isn't any fun when you're starting out.
