The Man Called God.

There is this popular man everyone has heard of called God, whom even the devil acknowledges as sovereign but detests that acknowledgement with  preposterous pride, doing all he can to match up with him since ages, but just can't because no one can ever stand up to him. We humans have this man in our lives for grattis, he asks for no wages for his services, he just wants to be a father, someone we can lean on to eternity, wants to be the the center of our lives. We accept him into our lives but as time goes on begin to doubt him, his love, capabilities, promises and presence. As humans as we are, we slowly let go of his hands and begin to chase the wind when things take the wrong turn.  As frail as we are, we begin to query his existence as we become overwhelmed with life, engrossed in expectations, hopes and plans that have been thwarted . We tentatively ask the questions, "Is God truly with me?, where was he when this happened? as powerful and loving as he is, this should ha...

A MOTHER, A JEWEL.

A mother is not just a woman that has procreated, this word has more to it than it purports. The love of a mother is the sweetest thing a child could ever ask for, as unquenchingly intense as always. A mother is an invaluable gift from God. Don't be astonished at the extent a loving and responsible mother would go just to see a sparkle of joy in the eyes of her child. Mothers dream come true when they see their child contented, comfortable and always wreathe in smiles and are the first to be happy when their children actualize their dreams and aspirations. A mother's love knows no bound, as it breaks all boundaries for her child's sake. The hard work, patience, unrelentless prayers accompanied by encouragement from a mother is what gears and sustains us the children to our purpose in life. A mother would move heaven and earth to protect her child from harms way as she would not mind putting her life on the line to exonerate her child from looming danger. They endure pain, h...

Giving up must never be an option!

      We all get to a certain point in our lives where thoughts of throwing in the towel become soo overpowering that we feel there is no hope, presenting giving up as the only remedy to the situation. Whether we succeed or fail in our endeavors is determined by the amount of input exerted, be it resources,  hardwork, determination, perseverance and many more. We can not help but sadly  think of why things are not going as planned looking at everything we have done within our power  to make it materialize but  still falls through, and we tend to be so good at being hard on ourselves at the end. Every tom, dick and harry has passed through this phase of life.      Success is like a seed, it has to be sown and taken care of till it blossoms and bears fruits. Every great person in the world today has a background story to which we pour out our hearts when they tell their stories for inspiration. Success did  not walk up to them saying ...

Overcome that fear!!!

     Fear is covertly a contributing factor of failure. It makes one forfeit awesome chances and opportunities of a lifetime. It does exceptionally well when it comes to subduing and restricting people from their passions. It is normal to be afraid but one also has to be conscious of its replications. My mother always calls fear a "thief" as she says, "fear is a thief that sponges off and feeds on your passion, taking what you deserve away from you forever at the long run, and its end product is regret and misery". I could not have agreed less to her metaphoric description of fear, as we all would possibly see eye to eye on the basis that we have all personally encountered fear in one way or the other, and know exactly how it operates.     It is very cardinal we overcome our fears by parading bravery and courage, as it yields delectable results eventually. Story time!!! Reflecting on a personal experience I had in school. I think it happened during my first year...
