When has a topic/discussion on "discovering one's purpose" become a threat? Isn't this the same message we hear from highly paid motivational speakers?

No that's not it. If you actually read the OP let's be honest with ourselves
It’s a writeup that basically asserts that marriage is somehow inherently a better purpose than work, but done in a way that attempts to be lowkey by way of just alluding to things. Perhaps if she had just stated her preference rather than ‘telling’ people what the standard is along with the usual thinly veiled patronizing tone and smugness, people wouldn’t have been as turned off.

Her vibe is very 'white woman tears'(the stereotype) adjacent to me

None. grin

Remember body language is also a form of communication? WITHOUT WORDS?
Your nferences are never direct and OFTEN loaded with ambiguity. That is usually the M.O. of A TYPICAL literary con-artistry. Pastors, Lawyers and Politicians use such mechanisms to brainwash naive folks around them by twisting and weaving in and out of a given subject matter.

You see?

It is not what you DID NOT WRITE that is the problem, but the SUBTLE INNUENDOS from your writings that leave room for misunderstanding and ambiguity. Your clarifications are even worse.

We can always read between the lines.

I asked you for clarification and you ignored my questions to you. Hey? You had the chance to state UNEQUIVOCALLY what you meant.

Do you remember this posts of mine from page 1-3 asking you to explain what message you were trying to send. Your subsequent responses were even more evasive and derailing. The more we asked for some clarifications, the more you disingenuously digressed and jumped from side topic to side topic.

Then to add insult to injury, some “adventitous IDs” sprung up “in medias res” to DERAIL and MISLEAD you as usual. Having achieved their mischievous aims in leading you astray with their baseless hi-fivings-and-divings, your lost control of YOUR OWN THREAD and became extremely disoriented. HMMMM! Very entertaining lessons in mind-control I tell ya!

Even when multiple well-meaning posters gave you your due respect, and offered suggestions to you for better presentation of ideas. you tried to insult their intelligence by dilly-dallying and meandering in, out and around unrelated subject matters. You could not process simple constructive criticisms.

If we did not find some of your topics interesting or entertaining, we would not be posting on them.

Unfortunately for people like you, NL is not full of illiterates and gullible posters. Some here are PSYCHO-FORENSIC SCIENTISTS. They watch and study online personas and can see RIGHT THROUGH THEM! Yup!!!

Most of us have all grown up on NL and will not really want to regress to the micro “NI-ZOO-RIA” NL was 5 to 7 years back with Seun’s poor management.

Desist from encouraging online, intellectual juveniles and sadists in using you to promote their sadistic, chauvinistic, mysoginist agenda on and off NL.

We ALL want to change lives . . . For the stronger and better.

We will not always agree, but being condescending and patronizing is not healthy in changing lives for the better on or offline.

You are a woman like me. I think!
We must NEVER body-shame or soul-shame fellow women for the entertainment of “little boys” and “spiteful little girls” on NL, who are waaaaaay too dysfunctional to maintain healthy relationships with anything around them on or offline.

You don’t see these same little boys attacking themselves for cheap female attention do you? undecided

Why must YOU and your threads be used ?

I don’t get it.

Thanks!




This post has gone through several modifications.

It is false to say people standing up for me derail my treads first; it is false to say I am condensing and patronizing.

So it is ok to insult Bukatyne however, guys should not insult the ladies that insult me? cheesy

For the last one year, certain monikers have jumped from one of my threads to derail and imply what was not said. I would have believed my threads are misleading if they commented on the ones about responsibilities of men or women knowing their worth. Nope, they are noticeably absent in those.

Remember I asked you what marriage was to you on this thread which triggered your tirades?

I engaged the first three or some monikers on this thread before the clowns started.

He who comes to equity MUST come with clean hands.

When you are ready to address whatever perceived issues about my threads, I might be here.

Till then, let's enjoy.

If the women bring their madness, the men are ready for them.

@bold:

When I told a poster that marriage and work are both means to an end and compared the difference between purpose and work? Check the post here, the bold decided NOT to work for this portion angry
https://www.nairaland.com/5848414/placing-wrong-emphasis-work-aka#89403863

This line is lifted directly from the OP:
Every body has the duty to discover their purpose and fulfill it.

In summary, work is just work: a means to an end of living a better life and fulfilling your purpose/assignment in earth.


This is another line capturing everything;
Discover your purpose (the hard part), then marry someone who keys into that purpose and vice versa. While at it, you would surely have a work to earn a living.

How can I think marriage is our purpose and tell people to look for it?

[b]Work is to provide your means of livelihood: Marriage is for companionship, prevention of adultery and raising godly children. Marriage like work is also a means to an end. The advantage of focusing on marriage over work is that you train kids who will carry on with your legacy. Marriage however differs in that it affects every other decision and fulfillment of your purpose. To break it down, let's use Mary (the mother of Jesus) as an example:

Mary's purpose was to birth the savior (Jesus Christ). Let's assume she was a farmer (the Bible didn't say), that's her work. She was married to Joseph (an excellent choice because he was godly, fair and righteous). Imagine Joseph was a rebebe man: it would not have been easy for her to fulfill her purpose; she might never have even fulfilled it. That's why I would rate marriage above work.

Some other examples of work vs purpose are:
1. Jesus Christ: He was a carpenter (work) however, his purpose was to save the world.
2. Peter: Was a fisherman (work), his purpose was to be an apostle and being Christ to the Jews.
Etc. Etc.

Discover your purpose (the hard part), then marry someone who keys into that purpose and vice versa. While at it, you would surely have a work to earn a living.[/b]

It is sure to produce the best results.

My style: If I mean something, I say it.

And I try not to read in-between the lines assuming for other people, that's why I question posters who bring stories here.

It is good you admit that none of my posts actually say what you have 'assumed'.



Stop the “twisting”.
Was I the only one you ignored? grin
I went about my business until your corny reply about “what does marriage mean to you. . . . Blah-blah-blah. . . We learn every day” off topic.

Then “my open marriage dis and sleeping around dat” ! ARGGGGGH! O gal face ya topic abeg.


WAS THAT THE QUESTION I ASKED YOU? undecided

Asking meeeeeee shocked what marriage means to me? Extremely offensive AND UNCALLED FOR, and so I let you have it! kiss

Was that the TOPIC of discussion? grin


After almost 12 pages you still cannot state the aim of your thread, so I am entitled to my subjective interpretations with or without your help! kiss

So please, do not make personal references to NL posters of whom you know zilch about their lifestyle or QUESTION THEIR LIFE CHOICES! Not ya BIBNEZZZ!

Face the topic of interest, learn to be a mature host on your thread, avoid tunnel vision, GROUPIES, and KEEP YOUR PERSONAL FEELINGS ABOUT ME IN CHECK. . . . Or I will return the favor. kiss

Crying to moderators, supermods or Seun is not my style. I will HANDLE you myself. I don’t use GROUPIES either. Not my turf!

Your opinions are your opinions and you should NEVER apologize for it.

Lovely response @ bold texts... cool

A thread that had gone a whole 7pages filled with unprovoked attacks on your person (from herself included), all this before any of your so-called defenders stepped in to change the tide... this observable TRUTH is what she's now trying to rewrite by patronizing you. Lmao... cheesy

What a classic expression of one who is psychotic, manipulative and downright mischievous. A Nazi of devilish proportions.

Meanwhile, this is for your strength of character in holding on to what you believe in regardless.
