You are unstoppable.

          This space has been less busy for a while now. So many things happening at the same time. My apologies.
           So, what is it you've been going through lately?
           Have you been having some hard time, or maybe hitting rough phases, facing obstacles, or meeting bad energies at almost every corner?
            Let me share this with you.
            Never see reasons to quit yet.


            Whatever tunnel it is you are going through, it's just a phase. It will definitely pass. That I'm sure of. It is the exact time I'm clueless about.
            Another thing is this, you're never in it alone. There is hardly any person around who really doesn't have an issue which he/she is battling with. In clearer terms, you're better off than a whole lot of persons. Your case is not the deadliest. A whole lot of others see worse days. For this reason alone, never stop being grateful.
           In this aspect, you too can relate. Most times, we all just package. For the person beside you, for the culture, for so many reasons. You carry yourself at your best, when you're in your worst of times. So does your neighbor, therefore,do not be intimidated by dispositions.
            It would be well🙌.
            È ma de bè, è ma ju bè lôn. That place you want to get to , you will get there, and surpass it. You'll go far.
            Then,what  is it you want to do, or achieve. What is it that rousing in your belly you want to bring to life? What is that dream of yours you see both at night, and in daytime?
            And  what's holding you back? What's stopping you?
            Don't tell me people 😔.
            As much as you ask for opinions, filter your answers. Not everyone think before talking.
             So, what's your next barrier? Time, money, something else?
            Here is all I'll tell you. Begin somewhere today. Start taking baby steps today. The path gets clearer as you proceed.
            Let me share a personal story with you. So, at the time I was about to get into the University, I had to buy a form for an exam. It was quite expensive, but that wasn't even issue. From what was on ground, Dad could afford to squeeze that amount out.
             The main issue was the school fees which the authorities were already telling us we were going to pay, after a short period of gaining admission. Dad was having nothing close to that amount, and after examining everything, I told him not to worry, I would stay home for an extra year, while working, and trying to save up. He really didn't reply, but we were just watching the deadline for the sale of the forms, pass by very quickly. On the last day of the sales of those forms, I was just returning home when Dad grabbed me by the hand, and told me we were going to purchase the form. I quietly followed. On our way there, I then asked him why the sudden change of plans. Then he told me. If you're waiting till everything is complete before taking a step, you might end up never starting at all.
If you're waiting till everything is complete before taking a step, you might end up never starting at all.
           Long story cut short, I got the form, took the exam, performed well, got my admission, and when the time for the payment of the school fees came. Dad paid it, the means notwithstanding. Till date, I'm ever grateful that I didn't just allow that year slip by.
             I've said a lot. I should stop already. But let me leave you with these lyrics."If you know you're a star, say Irawo Irawo eeh". Irawo is the Yoruba meaning for star. So why am I bringing it in? What is it you are?? Keep saying it. Never stop calling yourself to existence. You're getting closer. You'll hit it seamlessly, and surpass extraordinarily.
            We call it a wrap here. Thanks for coming through today. Lots of love from your favourite writer, Joy💜.

Keeping the You alive.

                             Flowers, green grasses, and small clusters everywhere. It's an animal kingdom. A goat meets a fish, and they become friends. They come together, and discover their variances, as regards their way of living, habitat and all. Then one day, the goat begins to tell the fish, that if they must remain friends, the fish has to leave its own habitat, and come stay with the goat on land. What  do you think would happen if the fish, which is cut out to live in water, decides to please her friend the goat, and come to stay on land? Your guess is as good as mine.                In the above illustration, the goat, and the fish were the focus....In today's illustration, you are our focus.                   Your life is made up of dreams, values, beliefs, aspirations. Though some of yours could look like ...

How do you see humble beginnings??

             Frame It!!!....The best days are close already.           One day in my life, a long time after I had left secondary school, I was going through my school box, and lazily looking through all the last set of books I used during secondary school. Then I stumbled upon them. My different Journals and letters. The letters included those that were written to me, and those I failed to give out, due to lack of courage or any other reason. Boom! I sat down there and began to read. I've always loved reminiscence and reading with all my heart. So, I seamlessly spent quite sometime on that spot, reading those stuff, and trust me, I had a swell time. I laughed so hard, and I pinched myself at  different times. I am sure, you can guess the reason by now. Damn!...I felt stupefied and really surprised. For the letters I wrote, I kept on asking no one in particular..."Did I ever draft this?", "Like, Who does this? For those ...

On Comparison: What Reliance isn't seeing.

 So what is it? RELIANCE : I've not been feeling so fine lately. My health has been deteriorating without mercy. Of recent, I've had to visit the hospital twice for tests, to reassure myself that I'm not actually a sickler. VALERIE : Okayyyy...your OCD won this time around. RELIANCE : Stop it. You would have done the same if you were in my shoes. VALERIE : Oya now, no vex ma. RELIANCE : See ehn, that is not even my issue. So many things have been on my mind lately. VALERIE: (Sitting up) Hmmmm...Do you mind sharing? RELIANCE : Not really. Errhm...do you remember Ola? The girl we used to call smallie dah year? VALERIE: (Thinking aloud) Smallie...Ola...who...wait, wait, the one from our secondary school? RELIANCE : Ehen!( claps her hand)...I saw her. VALERIE : (Brightens up her eyes, and begins to smile) Oh my God..where? How was she looking? Where does she live? RELIANCE : Calm down madam...abi, I should leave you to do the talking? VALERIE : Sorry oo..Oya, I...

Discipline.

 Hi there. Welcome back!🤗 Trust you have been good? Today, you would be learning something really crucial to your development as a person, and that is the art of discipline. Sincerely and soberly, How high have you been holding up your head in this area? Have you been taking charge of your responsibilities, or have they been making a mess of you? Well, by God's grace, you would stay in charge from today onwards.  _____________________________________________

A truth in time, saves lives.

                Make a mental scene of you, telling a lie about something to someone. After some time, you're now asked to reiterate or defend it before a large number of persons, and you do so, to save face. Next up, people have adopted the lie, and expect to see your life in that light. Let's just say this is the point  where you decide you're not returning back on your words. Somehow, you forge ahead. However, as much as you dreaded it, you finally get to that point where you can't keep up any more. You come face to face with your fears, and end up in a fix.  Pretty bad, innit? Most of the times, you either just sideline that life with no explanations, or you take the bold step of having to go back and tell everyone the truth. Thing is this. Why go through all of that in the first place??  One of the new year resolutions I made, is to be truthful to myself and others, come what may.  Reason?? For all that there is.  Yes...

KEYS TO A HAPPY LIFE 2.

                KEYS TO A HAPPY LIFE.                So friend, picking up from where we left off, here are the remaining tips I thought to share with you. Let's ride!🏄‍♂️ • ENCOURAGE OTHERS:   Everyday, we  meet weak people. We see persons struggling with the level we scaled years before. We come across persons fighting battles we fought and overcame a long time ago. In our classrooms, on social media, in our areas of interest or career, and just everywhere.             You remember how hard it was for you trying to start out?. Or maybe yours was bliss at the beginning. Yeah, it happens. You had no stress starting out. Probably, you were surrounded by the right persons, or you were just blessed. That’s a very nice one.  You're one of the very few, and I am happy for you🙌.              However, that person b...

For anything, anytime!

  Reliance: I now started Wondering if I actually look like an onions. Vanessa: (Laughing hysterically) Oh my God!... It's well with us. But wait, ( She sits up, and glances at the clock on the wall) Reliance...It's almost ten a.m. What time did you plan to open your shop? Reliance : I'll go by eleven joor. Sales have been pretty low this week, and I'm just not happy about it. It's killing the little vibes I gathered to open the business. Valerie: So, what exactly do you want? Reliance: C'mon...I have over a million naira worth of goods in that shop, and I keep on selling only a handful of goods per day all. Valerie: Is that so? But at the time I passed yesterday, the whole place was scattered, like you had just sold over a hundred thousand nau.. Reliance: (In shock) Jesus!..what time was tha.. Valerie: In the afternoon joor..sometime between 1 and 2. I was on a bike, so I couldn't really stop to greet, but with that sight alone, I was just hail...

WE ARE STILL HUMANS.

         Just before you carry out that action..                 The moderator  rolled in the announcements, and this was among. The third meeting in three weeks, was mentioned. Where the pastors would go and discuss redundant stuff that could wait, or be finalized on phone. But as usual, the senior pastor would hear none of that. He actually holds such meetings in high esteem, and sees anyone's failure to come, as disobedience.                Having  that realization hit him once more,and remembering that he was stuck, the junior pastor cried out in my front. Yeah...he blurted out:"It's still the same things we are going there to discuss"... and I'm quite tired and hungry😥. He just wished for a way to escape but there was none. The moderator would not even take his message, not to talk of relaying it to the senior pastor.             ...

Keys To A Happy Life

                           Let's talk, friend... What really do you plan to use all of those compliments which you've bottled up within yourself to do??. Let me guess...maybe save them all up till you're able to buy a fortune with it? Funny, right??..But this bothers me pretty much, so you have to tell me please. We'll come back to this later though, let us just not begin as enemies.            We would be learning about  keys to a happy life, today. I  garnered my information from a few personal encounters with persons, and my own application to life. Therefore, this list would not be exhaustive, but they're sure effective. Choke with Love:   Have you ever been stuck in a very tight corner with affection that the next air you sought to breathe was freedom? To me, and some others out there, that's one of the best feelings. I understand so well if you do not like...
