Sad. Little boy probably with his own dreams and aspirations just got 'cut off' by trigger happy police man. I think recession has affected the value of human life these days, people just get killed like chicken. Na wa o Na real wa oo |

airminem:Yeah, that's what the post is actually trying to point at, we humans see ourselves as sovereign in our beliefs and action. So if we want people to change their mind about something, we should learn how to do so adroitly without making an offence. |

I'm having a rethink about the the title of this post, maybe it should have been "Humans do not want to be 'told' to change". In other to protect our ego, we humans resist being told that we are wrong - whether its about our favorite football club or about our religion or about the politicians we choose to support - we feel that our ego is threatened when we are told by others that we are wrong. Permit me to share with you an excerpt from James Harvey Robinson’s enlightening book 'The Mind in the Making:' "We sometimes find ourselves changing our minds without any resistance or heavy emotion, but if we are told we are wrong, we resent the imputation and harden our hearts. We are incredibly heedless in the formation of our beliefs, but find ourselves filled with an illicit passion for them when anyone proposes to rob us of their companionship. It is obviously not the ideas themselves that are dear to us, but our self-esteem which is threatened. . . . The little word “my” is the most important one in human affairs, and properly to reckon with it is the beginning of wisdom. It has the same force whether it is “my” dinner, “my” dog, and "my" house, or “my” father, “my” country, and “my” God. We not only resent the imputation that our watch is wrong, or our car shabby, but that our conception of the canals of Mars, of the pronunciation of “Epictetus,” of the medicinal value of salicin, or of the date of Sargon I is subject to revision. We like to continue to believe what we have been accustomed to accept as true, and the resentment aroused when doubt is cast upon any of our assumptions leads us to seek every manner of excuse for clinging to it. The result is that most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do." I couldn't have said it better than Robbinson. We humans may change our mind by ourselves but will resist being told to do so, in other to defend our self-esteem from being trampled upon, we resort to "reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do". The lesson: Never tell anyone outrightly that they are wrong. Isaac Newton said: "Tact is the knack of making a point without making an enemy." When people tell us bluntly that we are wrong, we become defensive. Alexander Pope said: "Men must be taught as if you taught them not And things unknown proposed as things forgot." If you want to prove to people that they are wrong, then follow Dale Cornegie's advice, " If you are going to prove anything, don’t let anybody know it. Do it so subtly, so adroitly, that no one will feel that you are doing it." As Isaac Newton adviced, when we want to make a point that's against what others belive or accept as truth, let's do it with tact, without making an offence.

I think the reason betrayal hurts so much is because it usually comes from a loved one. Bukola Elegede, (a.k.a Asha ) sang: " So it was you, it was really you, you picked up the knife, then you cut me into two, you stabbed me at the back, then you twisted it in..." Your enemy cannot betray you only your friend can. Why? Firstly, it is because we usually have 'no deal' with our enemies where we would expect their loyalty. Secondly,it is also because we don't usually confide in our enemies, we confide in our friends, family or spouse and we usually expect them to be loyal to us. Events around the world have shown that the people we confide in may sometimes(if not most times) betray us, we have heard of stories of spouses betraying each other, brothers betraying brothers, sisters betraying sisters, children betraying parents and so on. The common thing about all these betrayals is that they involve two parties that had trusted each other before. No man believes that his friend can betray him not until it happens, then they say, " I didn't believe she could do that" or ,"I trusted him,". The spate of betrayal going on in life has made our parents and elderly ones to always tell us," Don't trust anybody", "People are dangerous," "People cannot be trusted". But the fact is that we all need loyal friends, we need people we can trust,we don't have to be cynical every time . We can not live our life happy if we don't trust anyone (to some degree). We cannot do away with other people, they need us, we need them. So what do we do? How do we get loyal friends? If you want loyal friends, first learn how to become one. Don't ask people what you yourself cannot give, can your friend confide in you? Also, never put TOO MUCH trust in people, trust some of them, but not too much. We also have to know that not everyone can be trusted equally. Make friends, but be careful, watch out for YELLOW ALERTS warning you of impending danger. Having loyal friends will make our life happy, we will feel safe, secured and loved. But we have to be wise with friendship and people we call our 'loved ones'. I will end this with one of Voltaire's statements, he said, "Lord, protect me from my friends, I can take care of my enemies". source: http://olusolasblog..com.ng/2016/07/betrayal-wound-that-may-not-heal.html cc lalasticlala |

Sad, atheists are humans too, they have got fundamental human rights! Even if they refuse to believe our God, they have the rights to do so. "Because I Don't believe in what you believe does not make me the devil and make you the saint" - originalKsp |
chuks34: bamikole07: Sexytemi: chicwoman:The reason most women-bosses are bad is because of the 'inferiority' they feel in their matrimonial homes. Their husband is the 'head' and they have got to listen to his last order, this make them feel inferior. So, when they get to the workplace they own, they want their voices heard, so that's why they usually behave badly. I am saying this from my experience of working with a female boss. She always yells, shouts at her workers. I didn't understand her, not until I witnessed the mouth-lashing she recieves everymorning from her husband. |
ipobarecriminals:This is why these 'Pastors' will always release 'Prophecies' because they know whether it turns out right or not, there will always be an 'explanation' and 'defence'. They should just tell us they are predicting based on their own knowledge and not pretending to be recieving information from God. |
