LiteratureTolerance by Teethomas(op): 2:03pm On Jul 19, 2025
Do not indulge in that which you cannot abide, for the weight of prolonged tolerance is a burden too great to bear.

LiteratureNucleus Of Goodness by Teethomas(op): 8:00am On Jul 18, 2025
The nucleus of goodness dwells within the midst of our daily interactions; the challenge lies in deciphering the map to the right mentor.

LiteratureGiving by Teethomas(op): 8:39am On Jul 10, 2025
Always remember, your service to others won’t always match their reward. Sometimes, you’ll meet rare souls who bless you beyond what you gave. But more often, you’ll find many who repay less than you poured in. Serve anyway, for greatness isn’t measured by return, but by the heart behind the giving.

LiteratureEvil And Its Undoing by Teethomas(op): 9:09am On Jul 08, 2025
Evil brews just a stone's throw away; but to undo its spell, you'll need a sun that shines through rain and an eclipse that waits on command.

LiteratureExperience by Teethomas(op): 7:47am On Jul 03, 2025
There is great profit in learning from the ignorance of others, for in their missteps, we find wisdom for our path. But to insist on drawing wisdom solely from our own painful experiences is to flirt with folly.

LiteratureA Heart's Reckoning by Teethomas(op): 8:26am On Jul 01, 2025
A Heart's Reckoning
I
Some hearts, though yearning for kindness, falter at its gate.
Unable to repay the gift, their hands remain too late.
Before you pour your goodness like a river's gentle flow,
Consider the recipient's heart, and the kindness that it may know.
I
For sharing your light with those who cannot see,
May lead to shadows of regret and a heart that's weary.
The wrong recipient may turn your gift to pain,
Leaving you with sorrow and a heart in vain.
III
So, choose wisely, to whom you give your heart,
For kindness, like a boomerang, may return to its start.
And though it's noble to give, it's wise to know,
The heart that receives it, and the love that it may show.

LiteratureHuman Nature by Teethomas(op): 8:10am On Jun 30, 2025
The duality of human nature is a mirror to your own; reflect kindness, and friends abound; reflect cruelty, and enemies multiply.

LiteratureA Letter To My Readers by Teethomas(op): 11:35am On Jun 26, 2025
From the oceans of inspiration,
Lies the rivers I write from.
To pen them down the right I do not possess,
But when my muse stirs, I perspire to write more.
II
On God's name I lay my apologies,
Over those my pen has hurt from my bleeding lines.
Your errors my pen must have designed,
But all is a coincidence of inspiration.
III
A juice of caution I will drink,
Hoping my muse will give a toast to it.
And to my readers kindly wear your armour of patience,
Just to withstand my strokes of words seeping from my diction.
Enough not to lay rebukes over a piece of writing that spikes your vices.
For to and fro,
We are all mortals.

LiteratureFriends And Foes by Teethomas(op): 8:45am On Jun 23, 2025
Same face, different heart; the foe and friend you know are one and the same. Treat them with love, and they'll wear a halo; treat them with scorn, and they'll don horns.

LiteratureQue Sera Of Us by Teethomas(op): 8:45am On Jun 16, 2025
I
Moonlit ripples and midnight glow.
Drunk on laughter,
Like the sharp perfume of spilled vodka after.
But the truth
I strayed...
Now I stagger through guilt,
Each step a wound regret has built.
II
"Leave me," you said,
And so I feast on thoughts instead.
Wrestling shadows in my mind,
In mazes memory left behind.
III
My heart hums que sera sera,
While guilt wraps round my mind like a scar.
Our years now echo like a fleeting song,
A love once loud, now gone too long.
IV
You see me to be weak,
I call you “judge.”
But all lost in love’s grudge.
Anger and violence took the wheel,
And our love boat capsized with no chance to heal.
V
Back and forth,
That’s how life flows.
And though we’re no longer two,
But in my memories, the haunt continues too.

LiteratureUnderstanding by Teethomas(op): 9:12am On Jun 11, 2025
Nothing is sweeter than getting an understanding from people naturally over a conversation than the understanding you get by talking it into them.

LiteratureDevil And Angel by Teethomas(op): 8:59am On Jun 08, 2025
The line between devil and angel blurs, defined only by the intentions you nurture. Sow kindness, reap friendship; sow malice, harvest hate.

LiteratureRelationship by Teethomas(op): 11:15am On Jun 06, 2025
The depth of our positive intentions in relationships will always reveal itself in the in-depth of our peace and the shallow state of our argument.

LiteratureSelflessness by Teethomas(op): 7:57am On Jun 05, 2025
I
Give too much, and they'll take the floor
Selfless acts can breed selfish score
You pour your heart, they drain the sea
And expect more, a debt to be.
II
Give too much, they take with glee,
Kindness turns to currency.
Selfless hearts can pave the way,
For selfish souls to seize the day.

LiteratureSelflessness by Teethomas(op): 9:59am On Jun 04, 2025
Excessive selflessness can paradoxically cultivate an atmosphere of entitlement, fostering selfish tendencies in those who benefit from one's generosity.

LiteratureTruth Aired by Teethomas(op): 7:32am On Jun 02, 2025
One of the reasons why people will have the truth and yet decides to seek for lies in the truth you've aired to them is because they know they have not been totally honest with you, so they find it hard to believe that you can be this honest with them.

LiteratureThe Weight Of Truth by Teethomas(op): 9:09am On May 31, 2025
I
They hear the truth, so clear, so bright,
Yet search for shadows in the light.
You speak with honesty, bare and true,
Still doubt grows strong in all they do.
II
Why do they question what you share,
As if your soul lays traps in air?
It’s not your words they can't receive,
But in themselves they won't believe.
III
For deep within, they wear disguise,
Their hearts entangled in small lies.
And when you offer truth so free,
It threatens their dishonesty.
IV
So rather than admit the cost,
They claim your honesty is lost.
Not knowing how to stand or see,
That truth feels foreign to the guilty.

LiteratureTransparency by Teethomas(op): 8:12am On May 28, 2025
In baring your soul too freely, you may sow the seeds of doubt—the very harvest you hoped to escape.q

LiteratureLove Talk by Teethomas(op): 8:28am On May 23, 2025

LiteratureTruth by Teethomas(op): 7:37am On May 05, 2025

LiteratureChange by Teethomas(op): 10:55am On May 03, 2025

LiteratureKindness by Teethomas(op): 10:42am On Apr 28, 2025
Before extending kindness, consider not just the need, but the capacity to receive and appreciate it. Some hearts may struggle to acknowledge or reciprocate goodness, not out of malice, but out of their own limitations. Choose wisely who you share your kindness with, lest it be met with unintended consequences.

LiteratureIdentity by Teethomas(op): 10:26am On Apr 02, 2025
There are three parameters to your identity in life : the first is who you are to yourself that people do no't see you to be, the second is who people see you to be by your appearance that you are not to yourself and the last is who people see you to be that you truly are. None of these identities is worth ignoring for you never can tell which one will speak volume during your trial season.

LiteratureRelationship by Teethomas(op): 9:28am On Mar 21, 2025

They recognize that relationships typically have a limited shelf life, ultimately falling victim to either the strain of DISTANCE or the wear and tear of ARGUMENTS.

LiteratureCheating (relationship) by Teethomas(op): 11:24am On Feb 15, 2025
Cheating in a relationship has no boundary, it's not about what we fail to do or what we do more than it's expected. No matter the level of our perfection or imperfection, a cheating partner will cheat regardless. It's not a cause and effect theory, it's more of a thing of the mind.

LiteratureLove Mutuals by Teethomas(op): 10:52am On Feb 08, 2025
We can't simply give what we don't have, we can't love until we are loved. To love completely,you will also need love from the person to successfully journey that path.

LiteratureLove Discussion by Teethomas(op): 10:19am On Feb 02, 2025
It's not about the discussion we have or the ones we failed to have that really put an end to things we do not like with our partners. Most times, a simple active conscience will suffice. A heart that will not stop certain things will not irrespective of the discussion .
