RomanceRe: Did U Smile Today? by olanajim(m): 10:23pm On Nov 12, 2007
The only way is for him to smile even when hit by Naija police. He must always say "cheese"! He must never cry when a babe slap him twice. He must smile tipatipa.

That is the first step. If he can do that, he would radiate joy like sun rays.
RomanceRe: Why Do Women Love Sweet Lies ? by olanajim(m): 10:17pm On Nov 12, 2007
Lies are sweet? Yeah!

But i'll rather break your heart, now and tell the truth than wait till you put me in trouble in the court of my conscience. The better option is for my to shut up!

@poster,
did u meet such women? You're lucky! Experience is your best teacher.
FamilyRe: Are You The First Born In Your Family? by olanajim(m): 10:10pm On Nov 12, 2007
First born and last born are special because of their position, they can't hid like the middle men.

They also shares some traits together. I think parents made them all!

He can't change his destiny unless he learn to smile. He needn't panic, he "must be born-again". So said the bible.
FamilyRe: Are You The First Born In Your Family? by olanajim(m): 7:20pm On Nov 12, 2007
Kayhell,
while agreeing with you, I need to let you know that being first born isn't about leadership alone. You can't take away the fact that this crop of people are often exposed to both negative and positive value system. Being in the middle mean being in comfort zone. You compare them at all for many reasons.

One thing about first borns is that, they are first for better or for worst.

RomanceRe: Please Help,there Is A Guy Stalling My Love-life by olanajim(m): 3:58pm On Nov 12, 2007
Wao! Funny indeed. Is the guy your twin brother? How come he know when you are chatting a new gal? Do you walk everywhere together? Lives together?

Well, he is doing that because he read through your weakness. Your cowardice. He is using you to fulfil his fantasies.

Better wake up. You would be getting bad reputation from those ladies and others. And ladies won't take you serious again since you are working for someone else.

Cut him off your friend lists and stop telling him about new gals as you have been doing.

I don't believe your story though. Because you can't win a lady's heart and that lady would go after a useless man simply because the man ask you to donate her to him. You may end up "donating" your wife someday.

I don't need to ask of your age, it is "teen grade". Just be careful.
RomanceRe: Is Making It The Reason You're Not Married? by olanajim(m): 3:47pm On Nov 12, 2007
I go with joey. Any lady that come after I am made is going to work hard to convince me she is real.

Luckily God had promised to protect me from evils. Seen and unseen.
RomanceRe: What Do I Do? I Need your Advice Please. by olanajim(m): 3:40pm On Nov 12, 2007
@poster,
your story is touching but it is all about FEAR and INSECURITY from your path. For the lady to tell you that aspect of her life must have been a result of trust and confidence she had in you and not necessarily because of you story.

Let me ask you few questions:
Do you love the lady to the point of marrying her?
Did she or her attitude to you show that she want a life-long commitment with you?
If the above are YES, then her past does not matter. The story she narrated was nothing but her trial. She was molested, cheated. That does not mean she was lose. In fact you should be proud of her unless she has other imperfections that bother you.

If you are going for your masters after service, plan in advance.

My advice is that you take a second look at her and be patience. Forget about what other guys are doing plan to win. Use the period you are together to know her more and measure her commitment. That would enable you know how to trust her in your absense. Talk to her and hear her view on your plan. If you want to marry her think/talk about marriage and not her attack.

The more you think of the attack, the more you hurt your own emotion. What happened to her had happened to many people. She was being honest to you by telling you.
LiteratureRe: Help:: How Can I Concentrate Better When I Read? by olanajim(m): 6:07am On Nov 12, 2007
I think you have poor academic foundation. This is obvious. You have also invested most of your intellectual times ( in the past) on pastime and funs. But you are determined to make something out of life. It is not too late, brother.

I also see you as having memory problems. ( Please, let me know if I am wrong and put me right so I can adjust.)

I also imagine you having a little trouble in class. Again I want to confirm this too. And if possible, try to be specific.

The first step is to change your attitude. You must also take Gwaza's advice very seriously. There is no hard and fast rule about concentration. You must learn to concentrate.

You also have habits of drifting aimlessly while reading. What are things you think about? Can you be specific? Perhaps we can have a glimpse of the problem. Concentration is a subject of your attitude. You can't change anything without changing your attitude.

Please give us a feedback so we can have deeper understanding of your case.

I am sure someone out there would read it.

Meanwhile, I want you to change your mindset from that of "I HAVE CONCENTRATION PROBLEM" to "I AM CONCENTRATING". See the result in your mind even though, you haven't get there. Believe strongly that you will get there.

Pray over it and always relax before you read and after. Have a "can do" attitude and stay focused.

Before you reply do this exercise: IMMEDIATELY YOU FINISH THIS, PUT ASIDE EVERYTHING YOU'RE DOING AND GET A PIECE OF PAPER AND A PEN. WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE THINKING. DON'T BOTHER TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS, JUST WRITE EVERYTHING THAT GO ON IN YOUR MIND. AFTER 3 MINUTES STOP, THEN READ YOUR THOUGHT PARTERN. You will repeat the exercise the second day and on. This would allow you to understand your thought flow partern and their nature. From what you write, you will observe what is taking away your concentration. Give me a feedback.

For instance, being first born requires playing leadership role especially if you are from a large family. This is not a problem if you have parents that groom you for that role. But some parents are careless about first borns especially when they are poor at the on set.

The following are of important when studying firstborns:

1. They are born often while parents are inexperience about child raring,
2. They are often born without silverspoon or at the twilight of their parents' financial stability,
3. They are in most cases victims of unplanned pregnancies. That the couple marry eventually is a relief. Unfortunately many are subjected to pain of suffering for being born,
Let set it rolling and delibrate the challenges facing them past and present.

Now that we have first people here can you guys discuss issues affecting first borns? Both negatives and positives. Let see if ideas can be shared and experiences compared.

HealthRe: Info Bout Yoga Need Ur Help! by olanajim(m): 9:06am On Nov 11, 2007
Mandi, I want to know more about yoga. I'd had a couple of information and had once tried it. I think the exercise fit my nature.

That Hindus invented yoga does not make it anti christ. Christains worldwide print devotional books spread their message to all religions. But yoga didn't tell you to embrace hinduism. So I see nothing wrong in it.

I am always seeking to improve my knowledge and awareness of things around me. I also want to know if I could use the exercise to improve on my intuition and meditation.

Kindly get in touch with me if you can't share the idea on this forum. My email is on my profile.

@poster,

I would love to help you. But you have to resolve to help yourself.

1. Do you watch tv for up to 5 hour a day? How many hours do you spend in front ot TV and how many do you spend on reading? Be honest pls.

2. Do you have worry problem? Financial, family, or love obssession with a beautiful lady?

3. Do you plug your FM radio to your ears when reading, or listen to music simulteneously?

4. Did you always understand the subject taught during class session?

Pls be honest and let hear you.

SportsWhich Football Club Should I Support And Why? by olanajim(op): 6:37am On Nov 10, 2007
Just curious. I have never really have a life contract with any football club but I enjoy the game and the players.

I want to know what you guys consider before being a fan of a club for life and why you think it is the best. I want to know why fan can die for their team and many more.

Why must I join your club? And which fc offer the best partnership with fans?

Don't mind the proponents of African queen. Some people are just negative minded and Nigeria has rich supply of the pack.

I insist you should speak with him to know his mind. Don't bother your head with worry.

Ask yourself, "what is the worst thing that can happen?"
list them out and accept the worst. Then, calmly proceed to solve the riddle.

As a MD,I supposed you should know better. Murphy's Law states that: "if anything can go wrong, it will!"

so I repeat that you should hear him out first. A man of 40 cannot be push about anymore. He make his decisions.

FamilyRe: Things Are Getting Out Of Hand, Pls Someone Help Me Out! by olanajim(m): 11:25pm On Nov 09, 2007
@poster,
advising her to go back is not a good option if the problem that sent her out is still there. Moreover, you said the kids hate their father. It merely point to the possibility of the man being a wicked, uncaring father and husband.

Instead of advising her to go back, advise her on how to pick up her life and take care of her children.

Why must she flee into a waiting arm of a boyfriend without meditating on her life? Why would she be with a man she is not married to while her house is burning?

Why abandoned her children to a grandmother simply because she had been forced to marry at tender age? She is not the first or only one to have gone through that experience. She must stop behaving like a pampered 16 year old girl and accept the responsibility she had to bear.

Those children may become her biggest asset if she can stoop to conquer.

Tell her that the guy he is putting up with in lagos would one day turn his back on her. That is a revealation from my intuition. I strongly believe that she is putting herself in bigger problem.

My advice is that she should go and get job. It is apparent she is still struggling to make a living else she won't have to send her children to unprepared grandmother.

Next, she should examine her own life. She had wasted years, almost half of her life fighting against circumstance instead of working toward turning her problem to opportunity.

Thereafter, she should take care of her children.

As for the man, I would have lambasted him, but he would probably have a point if given the chance to speak.

@poster,
why not discuss this with him? It could be either way.

So parents don't want their ward marry foreigner, and others don't care a hoot. Talk to him.

Generally, it is gladdening to see a young man coming to spend xmas at home with his foreign wife.

Being first is a burden and a challenge.
