THE SUN STILL SHINES

Dear single, let's examine this scenario together. There was a young lady who leaves in a room apartment. As a normal thing to her, whenever she's alone in the room she barely coveres her nudity. On an afternoon she heard a knock on her door, who's it? She asked. A thick voice responses and said, it's me Suraj your neighbour , as her habit, she is putting on nothing to be called a cloth. She rushes to her wardrobe and reaches out to a skimpy gown which she carelessly loads on her body to cover her nakedness. She opens the door, truly it is Suraj. He is welcome and after he leaves, she notices that her gown doesn't go down, because she put it on in haste. She feels broken but was too late, even though she adjusts her dress, her fault has been noticed already.

Let's bring out her mistakes, first she didn't ask the purpose of his visit before she opened the door, second, she was so in haste to open the door for Suraj that she couldn't examine herself well. Third, she's careless.

Sweetheart, you know that marriage is a very common institution that is to a reasonable extent known to majority as Suraj and his voice sounds so familiar to The lady. Many singles rush into marriage without thorough examination of themselves, just like the lady did. When marriage knocks at their door, they don't take time to answer the following questions "Am I ready for it?"," If I'm ready, what are the evidences of readiness?" . If these answers are positive, It will set a pace to ask the next questions, "Why Do I have to get married now? What is the purpose of the marriage? What are the things to be achieved? If again, you are able to answer the questions, then you can open the door.

On the other way round, if you fail to set yourself before you open the door, you might later be intimidated at the end like the lady and it might be too late.

Darling, you're lucky, you still have the time to build up yourself, why not tell marriage to wait at the door till you're ready to find answers to those questions.

Your single hood is a blessing, it's a season that prepares you all-rounder. Why not stay steady and get yourself prepared before you get started.

Oh! You think the little time you have is no longer enough to prepare? no dear. The sun still shines, you can still make your hay.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them) Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal. Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal. Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....

The Best Way To Fight Against Poverty

Poverty simply means lack of basic necessities of life. It means being poor in a specific aspect. Meaning that, one could be poor financially (Financial Poverty), spiritually (Spiritual Poverty), intellectually (Intellectual Poverty), morally (Moral Poverty). Appearantly, the major focus of the world is financial poverty. You are seen as being poor when you are broke. However, being broke is not the source nor the head of poverty. A man may be financially poor but intellectually, spiritually and morally rich. I often say it that, "money is not all man needs for life". So, if all you have or crave for is money, you are still a pauper. Financial Poverty is one of the strongest tools of the devil to win people into his kingdom. It is so strong that, even the so called "annointed of the Lord" are falling into the devil's trap through the tool. Our society, especially a country like Nigeria where majority of the citizens are subjected to financial povert...
