Ozid: Compliments of the Season to you all. Here are some things to do in 2022 if you don't want to be disrespected.
(1) Stop looking for who is not looking for you. (2) Stop begging. (3) Stop saying more than is necessary. (4) When people disrespect you, confront them immediately. (5) Don't eat other people's food more than they eat yours. (6) Reduce how you visit some people, especially if they don't visit you as well (7) Invest in yourself. Make yourself happy. Stop entertaining gossip about other people. (9) Think before you talk. 80% of how people value you is because of what comes out of your mouth. (10) Always look your best. Dress the way you should be addressed. (11) Be an achiever. Get busy with your goals. (12) Respect your time. (13) Don't stay in a relationship where you don't feel respected and valued. Walk away. (14) Learn to spend money on yourself. That's how people will learn to spend on you. (15) Be scarce sometimes. (16) Be a giver more than a receiver. (17) Don't go where you are not invited. And when invited don't overstay your welcome. (18) Treat people exactly the way they deserve. (19) Except they owe you money, two call attempts is enough. If they value you they will call you back. (20) Be good at what you do. Be the best.
I hope you learn from this, thanks.
Feel free to add yours!!! That number 18 is my mantra this year, yes even for "family" this year! |

What of orphans and abandoned children, do they automatically die from having no one around them? You can say that again! |

dazzlingd: Happy new year everyone.
Money is sweet and all the daily struggles of life from going to school to learning a skill or taking a professional course or learning a trade is all to one goal; to make money and plenty of it. However in the cause of searching for this golden treasure, we often forget some things that taste better than money.
1. Good health:
The day you lose your health is the day you will realise that being in good health is the most important thing in life. There are wealthy people in poor state of health that wish they could trade their entire riches for a good health. If you can sleep and wake up without pills, eat and excrete, breath in and exhale, walk, run and jump. Having your internal and external organs functioning perfectly. You don't know the treasure you have
2. Family
When you wake, you have your loved ones no matter where they are in good condition, you have your parents in good state, it could be your spouse, your children or siblings. You have a people to lean on when in trouble and laugh together in victory. If you have these, you dont know how many people envy you quietly. Don't wait till you lose it before you realise
3. Peace of mind
Mental health, being emotionally and psychologically sound. Nothing beats these things. You aren't suffering any police case, you aren't a suspect of robbery, murder or fraud. Nobody is chasing your life. You are not running from bitter enemies. You not being set up. Not a victim of circumstances and disasters. Those suffering these abandon their dreams of chasing money to running to and fro the earth looking for peace.
Once again, I wish you a successful 2022, live the life and enjoy every moment. And for those who might be suffering any of he above, I wish you a better year 2022, good health, peace of mind and a happy family plus more money.
Like the curious case of Benjamin button, each year will come and go, enjoy the moment, live a life you are proud of and if at any moment you aren't happy with the choices you made, I hope you have the strength to start all over again and stay happy. Peace of mind and good health is really key and important. Family is really overrated in my opinion especially if you have not had it good in life. My 2 cents. |

That is why we always say one should not be lazy or negligent, such person not only reaps the consequences, others do too. |

Life she cares not for things u hold dear. U re right in what u said."[b][/b]if u become sick or bedridden, she will treat u same way. She has no compassion in her, that a grounds for divorce as d scales has fallen of ur eyes. My exact opinion too! The two worst people to live with are those that are either negligent by being lazy or wicked in my opinion. |

God1stson: If her mother had died in that incident you will not be talking like that. One thing that drives people like her wife is selfishness, anybody like that will still repeat the same thing over. I had a sister who knows I suffered acute ulcer yet most of the time she puts excess pepper in food. I complained severally but often she repeats it, I even gave her d option of grinding dry pepper and put it in her own afterwards but she didn't buy it. Since I was d one providing d money for food, I had to start giving her half of what I intend giving her 4 feeding. So any day I enter and taste one spoon and is peppeperish I will quickly go to Mama's care restaurant, the woman knows I don't need 2much paper or will buy indomie. Since then she is more cautious about putting pepper but I had remained committed to the half percent of feeding money so no more excess money for buying make ups or clothes from d remainder of the feeding money lol I do the same drastic decisions too. I still remember in service, my roommate who cooked for both of us and the food had onions and was even raw after cooking! I hate onions with a passion and must not see it in my food. Once, I took the first spoon and I had a bad experience, I rora left the food for him and went to buy food outside. That was a message direct enough! After that day, I never saw onions in the food he cooked again! I am that kind of person if the salt is not enough (too little salt) or too salty or onions is in my food or egg, I will leave the food for you and either cook my food or eat outside. That is always enough direct message! |

God is depending on you to stand for Him and resist that attack. It is not easy.. but u need to stand strong in & for God & overcome PLS sir.. U should forgive her and overcome d enemy in your marriage Forgive a negligent or we don't even know wicked person? Both categories of people are people one should run far away from as the results of their actions could lead to death as just happened. |

Malawian: If it is laziness, she could have finished cooking, removed the mother's portion before adding salt to the rest. It was intentional. Once or twice might be laziness, more than twice? Naa I don't think so. The views saying it is intentional seem to have a point! Because if it is really more than twice, that is not even in the negligence territory anymore! |

dangotesmummy: yes or invite the househelp to take care of her.wives usually or innately see their husbands mother as a baggage or an intruder who should not be seen around their husbands or exist.only a few genuinely love their mother in-laws the way they love their own mothers or children.the love for their children is unconditional but the love for their mother in-law are many times fake because there's no how if the doctor said their child was sick and should stay away from salt ,there is no way she will ever forget and if any househelp dares it she will come after her ruthlessly All this advice is for naught already and purpose is defeated as he unfortunately lost his mom. |

wirinet: [color=#990000] [b] Now, that is sad! No other advice can be given on this unfortunately. The last advice I will give him is to divorce his wife but take care of the kids. If a woman can commit murder like this due to her negligence, I fear to think what she will commit in the future. Neglectful women are a ticking time bomb and a keg of gunpowder and sooner or later, one shares in the bad results of their negligence. I rest my case |

Don't leave your mother in care of your wife again.its very dangerous as you can see Abi. And the way to do that is for the mother to go back to her house to prevent such opportunity from happening again. |

Theonlysonofher: While others are celebrating the new year today I am here sobbing because my marriage is at the verge of breaking.
I loved my wife with all my heart but I don't think I will ever forgive her for what she has done to my mother.
I am the only child of my mother. I have three sisters on my father's side. I am married with two beautiful daughters. my mother suffered from diabetes, bp and high cholesterol. She is on a special diets strictly no salt or too much sugar.
She came to stay with me because the person who was taking care of her wasn't doing her job properly so I had to bring her to my house so I will be monitoring her health.
I have a house help who prepares all her meals with less salt and she also makes sure she takes her medicines on time without fail. Everything was fine, my mother is not a troublesome person, she gets on well with my wife and most of the time she is in her room resting.
On the 20th of December my house help had traveled to the village to see her people and she will be back in January 4th so my wife and I have to take care of my mother making sure that her foods is less salty and medicines on time.
Since I am always working so my wife had to take most of the responsibility. It is only for a week and fews days until the house help is back.
She had agreed to take care of my mother during this periods of time and I thought everything was fine but I noticed my mother become distant and tired unlike her and I had no idea that she was actually dying and I have never suspected that my wife was maltreating her.
So Thursday being 30th December I was at work when my wife called and asked me to join her at the hospital because mama had a seizure.
I rushed to the hospital and my mother was in a coma state and I asked her what happened to mama, she said mama woke up that morning complaining about shortage of breath and she told her to go back to bed and rest hoping she will be fine by the time she will wake up. Only for mama to fall off the ground and started shaking with foam coming out of her mouth.
I was in panicked I couldn't stop praying for my mother to get better and I didn't leave the hospital, my wife went home to take care of the children because she has left them with the neighbour and I had spend all night prayer vigil at my mother's bedside and glory be to God my mother woke up yesterday being 31st but the doctor report was not a good news for me.
Actually my mother was poisoned with salt and guess who did it? My beloved wife couldn't bothered to cook a different meal for my mother, she used to feed her the same meal we ate knowing full well that mama cannot eat the same foods as us because we are salt lovers, especially my wife, she love eating too much salt which I have warned her over and over again because it is also not good for her health.
I confronted her, she said she only fed mama the same meals we ate twice only but according to the doctor it was more than two times.
I am hurt that my wife doesnt love my mother or treat her like her own mother because if she truly loved her like her own mother she would have put her diet on consideration and not allow her to eat the same meal as us. I love her mother and u treat her like my own mother.
It pains me a lot when I remember five years ago when her mother was in coma state and she was staying with her at the hospital, she is her only daughter amongst three boys.
I used to visit them everyday after work, I will bring foods and I have even washed her mother clothes with my own hands, I have done with love because she is my mother. I called my mother in law this morning and I have informed her about what her daughter has done to my mother and she couldn't stop apologising and she is very disappointed with my wife.
But see how she has repaid me by hurting my own mother.
She has apologised to me and to my mother, I have forgave her but I don't think I can stay with her again because one day if I become sick or bedridden she might treat me the same way.
Honestly speaking I am not even at home with her and the kids, I am at my cousin brother's house since yesterday I left the hospital and my mother is still in the hospital because she needs more treatment and hopefully she will recover by next week.
I don't feel like going home today and I don't know when I'll go home but I will always be there for my girls because they are the best thing that ever happened to me.
What other advice would you give me on this situation? What are your thoughts? Thank you for reading all I love this community. There is a solution to this if you have the means, money that is. Once your mom gets well, that maid that knows how to cook her food along with her, should go back to your mother's house to be cooking her food while you get another maid for your house. Chikena. Also, treat that maid well to avoid had I known in the future. I will take this drastic decision if I were in your shoes, no matter how your wife feels about it. It will send a very strong message that there are consequences for being lackadaisical and lazy. My 2 cents. |
