SINGLEHOOD IS THE FOUNDATIONAL SEASON


Singlehood Season is like an opportunity, when lost, it can never be regained. Even though you quit your marriage, it is not the same, you can never be like the way you used to be when you were yet unmarried.
      There is never any building without a foundation and we have various kinds of foundations. The structure of a building determines the kind of foundation that would be layed for it. The way we lay the foundation of a bungalow is different from how that of a five or six or more story building would be layed. It is impossible to lay a foundation for one floor building and later build a three floor building on it, if tried, the house would collapse.  How STRONG the foundation you layed for your life during this Season of Singlehood determines how WELL your life would be in the later Seasons.
       It is however essential for singles to understand that, the period to lay the foundation for their destiny is a limited period, the season will expire someday, no matter how long it takes and whatsoever you do during this season determines the shape and how your life will look like in the later years of your life. 
      This season is the foundation of every man's life. It is a season when you lay  foundation for your Marriage, Career, Child rearing and whatever you would become after the Season. Whatever virtue you can not add to your life or at least lay its foundation during this season becomes difficult afterward. And they say, "as you lay your bed, so you will lie on it". Whatever foundation you build in your singlehood, is whatever you would build upon after the Season expires.
       No wonder, we have a lot of married people struggling with their lives after marriage, some after their marriage look like it is straight from their childhood to marriage. Some look so confused as if they did not have the time to prepare before they matched into marriage, forgetting how many years they used in their Singlehood Season.
       Singlehood season is once in a lifetime. Whatever you lay as foundation during the period becomes what you build on in the later Seasons. Do not mismanage your Singlehood, don't use it to build a rough foundation for your life. Hence, make most of the opportunity and build a strong, solid foundation for your Life.

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." Where...

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....
