Life Kicks Everyone's Butt One Time or The Other

Everyone has got Ability, but sadly, not all have got the Opportunity. We're all quick to blame the Prostitute, but we've got no idea about what pushed her to that Institute. We're all quick to say "She's merely a Tailor" but if she didn't struggle to be one, we'll still call her a Failure. Now he's done his best to become a Mechanic, and you gore him, tell me, who's going to fix your engine when it starts to Panic? You say he's too gifted to be a Bricklayer, but you hardly remembered him in your Prayer. *Deep thoughts here. Life Kicks Everyone's Ass One Time Or The Other. The best of men do not get the best of life everytime, and the ones who seem to be getting the best of life at the moment must have had their butts kicked by it one time or the other. Stay hopeful in this fight for success. Once you keep it strong you'll still get there. Its not the Honourable that turns Capable, but the Capable turns Honourable. Today you'

Billionaire Offers $65m To Any Man Who Can Woo His Daughter

Millionaire offers $65 million to any man that can woo his daughter A businessman from Hong Kong has offered a $65 million dowry to any man who can win the heart of his lesbian daughter. Cecil Chao announced the financial reward of HK$500 million after his daughter, Gigi, married her same-sex partner of seven years in France earlier this year. “I don’t mind whether he is rich or poor. The important thing is that he is generous and kind hearted,” 76-year-old Chao was quoted as saying. “Gigi is a very good woman with both talents and looks. She is devoted to her parents, is generous and does volunteer work,” he added. He also rejected “false reports” that Gigi, 33, had married abroad, saying she was still single. Chao, who owns publicly-listed property developer Cheuk Nang, could not be reached for comment. Same-sex marriages are not recognised in Hong Kong, a socially conservative Chinese city where homosexuality was decriminalised in 1991. Chao is well known in Hong Kong’s soci

Life's Essay...

Life's essay has got so many punctuation marks repeated as many times as possible, but features just one Full stop. *If you've not gotten the ".", then you don't give up, it simply means the essay continues. Challenges that come in life, merely punctuates the free flow of life essays, as none is capable of ending it. As we journey through life, we'll encounter situations and occurrences that could feature more than once in a lifetime. Life's essay is only ended where death (The Full stop) meets it, and until that final punctuation, no punctuation (Situation) should be mistaken as the end of the road. Life's essay comes in different styles and formats; Some have it long, Some have it short, Some have it suspense filled, Some have it thrilling, Some equally have it free flowing. What you're faced with at the moment(once it doesn't kill you), can only be a part of the essay, and it will sooner than later COME TO PASS away. Friends, because you w

Flood; God's Own Punishment for The North?

"The recent happenings in the northern parts of the country might just be signs of God's own justice on that part of the country which is characterized by the dreaded, destructive and life claiming activities of the Boko Haram sect." Popular views from the media and social networks shows that some agrieved citizens of the country who have lost lives of friends, families, and properties couldn't but show no form of sympathy on hearing about the Adamawa flooding, and most recently the over flowing of the River Niger. A tweet I retrieved(respecting anonimity) stated "They better stop blaming Cameroon or any other African neighbour, na God dey punish dem, and na God go punish them for all the people wey dem don kill". Could this be true? Is God begining to punish the North over the prevailing Boko Haram activities? In the wake of the River Niger incidence,no fewer than two million people have been affected by flood in Kogi State as River Niger continues to ov

PRIORITY

...Its so amazing, that we leave the main things, to choose the vague things, just to boost our ratings. I go a gazing, I can't but scream, 'na weytin'! When I find myself hating, 'cos on silly things, so much importance we're placing. I see the shame awaiting, Even though today the trail we're blazing, and we're feeling like Masons, in no time, realities we'll be facing. By that time, we'll be shaking, Seeing the many mistakes we've been making, then we'll look up to God and be faithing, a sorry case, we've only just begun the wailing. Life's a mix of PRIORITY and WAITING, Do first the main things, look next, the play things, then you'll be the one dictating, how life's rotating. Akogun Olalekan (c) 2012.

W.W.W (What Women Want)

What women want! My version of the popular World Wide Web. Let me ask a simple Question? What do women want? I decided to ask the women themselves,I am going to publish the few answers I got as the response came in. Mind you I didn't edit the responses, So as to bear out their minds,I promised the women their names would not be publicized. Read and Learn from them! Miss A said :We just want happiness,Its broad I know but thats what we want. Miss B: I doubt if women know what they want. Even if we list things we think we want or traits Expected in our men. It cant be done no man can be 100percent perfect same with a woman So its all wishes, in the end a woman will always settle for whatever her man has except she is not ready to settle den she'll keep pursuing d pipe dream dt a perfect man exists My view. Miss C : An honest response won't make a difference. Thanks Miss D: There

Working or Just Busy?

We’re all allotted the same 24 hours in a day, so why is it that some people manage to accomplish amazing feats with their time while others struggle to maintain even a basic level of productivity? The answer isn’t gallons of coffee or cases of Red Bull.  In fact, the secret is simple!  The people who are able to accomplish more in the amount of time we all have are those who are skilled – whether naturally or through concerted practice – at making their work as effective as possible. If you want to be more successful, one of the easiest ways to bring about this change is to become more effective in your daily work.  Here’s how to do it… Step #1 – Understand the difference between “effective” and “busy” We’re all busy, right?  Take a look at the tired and stressed faces around your office and you’ll see just how “busy” people are these days! But just because we’re busy doesn’t mean that things are getting done effectively.  By understanding how these two key terms differ, you’l

Twisted

OPTIMISM sustains your mystery, but pushes you closer to victory. The question remains, "Why suffer more over a possibility?". The believe that breeds optimism stretches your mystery, works you out psychologically, physically and mentally. Being certain and confident when you've got no rights to, goes a long way to boosting your chances, since you'll want to try more, do more, and believe more, though you're likely to hurt more in the process. Looking the other way, I found some serious fact, and I can't but share with you the other half of the twist. PESSIMISM ends your mystery, gives it all up, and closes the chapter of any possibility of a breakthrough. The conclusion that breeds pessimism comes with a rest of mind, acceptance of fate, with little or no need to worry, seeing there's no way out. There onward, all you need do is go on with your life, perhaps try some other things, well, that's if your pessimism is not a lifestyle. Let me quickly

IMAGINE

Imagine a life without a Stop for every start. Imagine a life without a Death for every birth. Imagine a life without a Delete for write. Imagine a life without a Right for every left. Imagine a life without a Woman for every man. Imagine a life without a Man for every woman. Imagine a life without a Devil for every Christ. Imagine a life without a Delete for every write. Imagine a life without a Undo for every do. Imagine a life without a Tear for every smile. Imagine a life without an Expiry for every BIS. Imagine a life without an Ignore for every BC. ...............To be continued. ...I tell you, LIFE IS VAGUE WITHOUT ITS PLAGUES.

The Heart of Man

Look him straight in the eyes and he'll give you a smile, but refuse to be carried away, it just might not be reflecting what's inside. He might sing, he might smile and still be dying right inside. The heart of man is complex, lots of work you need to do to comprehend its goings-on inside. The earlier you choose to live by these facts, the better placed you are to getting there in time. The way to know a happy man is not through his smile, the key to recognising one remains through his unguarded/ spontaneous words and deeds. Though the thoughts and intents of man dies with the seizure of the beating heart, but from thence we'll prove a point, that the subject "The Heart of Man" we talking about here goes beyond the physical cardiac structure responsible for the pumping of blood. The splitting open of the physical heart of man can never reveal the intents, plans and plots of him. So criminal, so deceptive, the mastermind of all surface actions. So confusing, so

Articles Of War!

The art of war is one which entails much dexterity and skill, strategies and counter strategies. Skills, preparation and confidence are keys to success in any battle. Confidence and dexterity on the part of the leader of the fold, and devotion, loyalty and hunger for victory remains vital to the other men of war.And permit me to inform you again that you are in for a war! “As for me, I’ll rather lead a herd of sheep with a lion, than let a sheep lead a pride of lions” so says a man of understanding. Expertise at war involves every form of preparation (i.e. pre, post and during). The articles of war remain vital in the art of war. Consider this with me; what would you say of a man dressed in a blazer suit, though beautiful, carrying with both hands sacs filled with substances unidentified, and marching to the front of battle with earphones plugged into his ears and his head swaying from side to side in response to the sound produced from his mini sound system? A goat heading to slaugh

Another Mystery Baby Is Born

Barely three months after the reported birth of a baby with a mini-Quran in Mushin area of Lagos State, another oddity has occurred in Sagamu, Ogun State as a woman was said to have delivered a baby boy with an Islamic rosary, otherwise known as Tesbeu. Investigation by Sunday Sun revealed that the boy was delivered on Tuesday at Rotoluwa Maternity Home along Aiyepe Road at about 11.45pm. Mrs. Gbemisola Hamsat, a 35-year-old mother of five, was said to have been delivered of the baby and the rosary. Expectedly, the strange delivery has turned their 2, Odujoko Street, off Prison Road, residence into a Mecca of sorts as people thronged the area to confirm the tale. The Matron of the Maternity Home, Mrs. Sarah Olurotimi Oloyede, a traditional birth attendant, confirmed that she took the delivery of the somewhat strange child. Oloyede’s words: “I heard a sound of something dropping into the bed pan before the placenta came out. “It sounded as if it was an iron or something with wei
