Hello you, It's been a long month! A lot has happened during the week, good and funny ones I must say! In all, I'm having a good ride. How have you been? You know better not to beat yourself up about unachieved goals right? We go AGAIN, and AGAIN! This week, I'd be talking about "words of affirmation" and a couple of ways we can properly relate with people who have that as theirs. I've always wanted to talk about this, because somehow, love has a lot of drama inside it, lol. Love language is one of the many drama. It won't be weird for me to think that we all know the five kinds of love language, but for a refresher, I'd tell you again. They are; Words of affirmation Physical touch Quality time Act of service Receiving gifts Even if some school of thought argue that there are more, I personally think these five cuts across the basic. I'm focusing on "words of affirmation" because that's mine 🙃. Love language is simply how you qualify...

You remember the vintage scarf story I shared here ? Imagine if I didn't go with enough money to cater for the cost? It would have been painful because I have had previous scenarios where I saw something I liked, or I had plans to buy some new stuff but after spending money on other things that were not quite as important... I find out that I did not have enough to cover the cost of the initial stuff I wanted to buy. It's like that with other things in life. Sometimes you make up for the cost as you go, but it is often advised that you have enough to totally cater for the cost at the initial stage. Decisions are a huge part of our adult life, and it is typical of us to always do a risk evaluation during the process to pick which has a huge success tendency. Afterwards, we go ahead with it, incurring costs as we go. Now imagine you didn't do a proper cost analysis? You would run out at some point, exhausted and too broke to continue. When I first came across a related vers...

Expectations are not such a bad thing, whoops! I pulled a plug there... While we look forward with anticipation for a change, we should make adjustments for that change. We desire this change in the first place, because the former state isn't conducive or acceptable anymore, how can this be a bad thing? Today, I want us to look at this from a positive perspective. The way God wants us to handle expectations, the right way. Back story... I was with my sister one evening, and we were having phone conversations with different people. She suddenly let out her frustration "I'm tired o, why can't I post what I want in peace?" That was an indication that there was a gist to come, so I put my phone down to hear everything. Seeing my interest, she further narrated... Prior to this day, my sister already developed interest for destination videos, and luxury interior designs, so she shared them on her status and stories. That day a guy who was an admirer gave his 2cents. ...

Hello virtual readers, we can all agree that a lot has been happening lately and we are currently doing the most to stay sane. I'm even more perplexed that a girl was outrageously killed by someone probably younger than her for the simple crime of looking for a job . A  large number of people my age are home doing nothing and it's not a public holiday. I've been thinking about my self more than I usually do, like a self appraisal to measure growth. Not coming from a place of defeat, I'd like to say I had great hopes for myself, and this has made me think about my younger self for a while now with mixed feelings - happiness and sigh. Watching the final episodes of S uits , the part where Louis in a therapy session, reconnected with his younger self to overcome his fears made so much sense to me. Now, to my younger self, I have got a couple of things to say to you. Here it goes Dear Younger self , Please smile, or I'd give you a knock!  Talk more, just say anything...
