I Am The Greatest.... Yeah, Just Walk The Talk!!!

I talk-write ( hope you get the meaning. I've been told I write -in short bursts- the way I talk. That should be because I kind of get gusts of inspiration of what to write at a particular time and in the next minute, I usually get the dry spell. So I just pour it out in writing as it pours through my mind before that imminent dry spell strikes. And I'm just too forgetful nowadays ) too much. Well, it's fun and a kind of vent for me. I hope big. I believe I'm gracefilled. I believe I'm special. I believe I'm the best. I am the greatest! Now, I hope my (too much) talk meets up with my output. I work so hard. I sleep late or not at all. Zero social life. I do my amateurish photography by myself to near perfection as long as each takes. I research and write for an  inspirational and philosophical blog . I attend seminars and read relevant books. I'm apprenticed now and then to broaden my scope. I do stand a whole day on my legs weaving beads. I ha

My sister called my attention to the fact that my smile doesn't get to my eyes. I was baffled because I never noticed. Then I started paying more attention and I realized it's true. So what did that signify? How did I get here? ( I, known to smile excessively even when it's not warranted. And even when in pain. It used to be my trademark. I've even been advised to work on reducing it before πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€). Hmmnn, I guess the pain is way past my mind. It is now reflected on my face. Guess there's enough the mind can take. -(Debby Cletus) You remember the illustration (beaded jewelry) pieces for my blog post "    IT MUST BE HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF ?" πŸ˜€ Nothing makes one more proud and fulfilled than seeing your output been slayed this beautifully... I have come to realize that there are some pains that are just too deep it can't be shared. Some because they are too sensitive and some because nobody would ever understand. Let's just say

When I was young, I used to share bed with my younger sister and she always gave me sleepless nights πŸ˜€ because of her turnings, pushings and kicks while asleep. No ado about that really but we'll come around to its significance soonest. So as the normal thing to happen, we were expected to be close considering our sharing a room right but that's where the closeness ended. Our proximity in age and my sensitive nature meant grieves somehow for me🀣🀣🀣. Like when we had misunderstandings, my dad especially used to say, "is she not your younger sister? You should be able to assert your seniority." Or "too bad you ain't able to show her you are older." etc. You should know this meant kind of emotional pain. To cap it up, there's this older somebody again who usually aggravated the situation by always taking her side and always blaming me for any fallout. "You are the elder. Elders are expected to take BS." "She's younger, how is

Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. Wait on God's perfect timing and trust Him for the outcome... -( lifecoachcharlie.com  ) At a time in my life, I was sacked at my place of work, a multinational company at Eleyele, Ibadan. This was as a result of the carnal relationship between my ex-wife and the commercial manager of the company. I had a beautiful wedding in the year 1995 with this wife of mine and we were living happily. The company had a policy: the whole family (nuclear) of each worker had access to free medical services at the company's clinic. That was how my wife found her way into our office and started a relationship with our commercial manager. Then, one day, problems were detected with one of our accounts in Kano State. So we had to go there and verify. Getting back from Kano, I discovered my wife's infidelity. Then I was told by our union leader that my name was on the retrenchment list. He also told me the commerc

I don't come into things easily. I don't easily achieve... No matter how hard I strive. Several unfinished projects. Several unsuccessful attempts. Many stops midway. Trials over #trials. Adversities upon adversities. Pains! Emotional traumas! Disappointments!!!  There's always a #delay.. I have eventually accepted my FATE and thereby come into #peace with my   existence and #destiny. Truly, it isn't easy ooooπŸ˜΅πŸ˜±πŸ˜€πŸ˜€ accepting or coming into terms; but gradually, it's entering me. But well, what can one do but accept! All I try to do is ask God for the #GRACE to decipher every single #opportunity that rarely knocks; grab and make the best of it. And also, the #PATIENCE to wait out the time in between... Accept your FATE then you will be well... -(Drowning Pool: Reminded)  I wonder which one is harder: accepting your FATE and living with it; or living in denial the rest of your life.. -(GU Family Book) Accept FATE, and move on.
