For today only.

Friend!...Happy new month to you🤗. 

Trust you have been good. Well, I am writing to you today about something on my mind. 

Do you ever feel like you have gotten past the point of making wrong decisions in a certain area of your life, and then boom, just one day after you have certified yourself, you make a major disastrous decision? 

I am with you on this one😩. 

Here is the thing. Up until yesterday, I still did things which I am not proud of today. And yes, if you check it out, you will discover it is the same with you. One moment, you think you have a grip over everything, and the next moment, you are losing it all helplessly. 

The truth is, you have very limited control. Limited foresight too. So, despite everything, you can only be so careful, you cannot be so certain. 

And that is what gives birth to this message: Do not, in a bid to avoid stepping on stones, refuse to walk.

 Do not decide not to explore, just because you are scared. Do not leave out moments because you are scared that it might not be the same tomorrow. Do not bury that dream in you, because you fear that it might be dead on arrival. 

Yes, things might go south, but the beautiful thing is this...You started. You experienced it. You enjoyed it while it lasted. Take pride in that. Do not be ashamed to say "Yes it was this way, but things have changed". Pick up your lessons, and keep moving. 

This is why we are humans. 

So friend, 

Create the moments. Live life. Enjoy people. Savour every bit of talk time. Give out and receive love. Start somewhere. Leave out the worrying, and enjoy the moment before you. We will get there when we get there. 


Dear friend, Cheers to a beautiful new month. Everything is working in your favour. Do stay safe and take care. Yours truly, Joy❤.

About this blog.

                      LET'S BEGIN WITH THIS!!            Hi  dear...How have you been?Trust you've been great?         Thank you for agreeing to walk down this path with me.  It's all the reason I'm happy you're here. I mean...who doesn't like company??             That trashed, let's look the way of the blog. What is it all about? Why did I decide to write? For fun, education, information, communication, or what have you?..You can guess all day long, but let me save you the stress. My purpose of owning a blog, cuts across all those purposes I earlier mentioned, and more. Sounds like a brag,right?...Okay, let me cool you down with this...you are the main  reason why I am blogging today. Trust me if you were not there, I wouldn't dare. I'm writing just for you!💝            Let me not spill the whole bean...

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...

The Limit of your Goodness.

            TILL YOUR SHADOWS STOP SHOWING UP...            I too, face this issue everytime…Fredrick has been getting on my nerves lately. His own was now too much. All I badly craved now was to pour venom on him..through words, or even literally. Rebecca is nothing close to grateful, and never takes note of any good I do, and I just want to scream my  grievance into her face one day, and stop myself from doing good anywhere around her.                  And then I keep asking,"when do I stop  being good?, When is the right time to strike these persons with the fact that I also have a bad side, and I’m not made with goodness all around? Which time is the best for revenge or total back-off?.             Well then, here's the answer you may not want to hear, but need..." Till   your shadows stop showing up ".☺️       ...

Triumph over pressure.

 Hiiiiii.. Welcome, and thank you for coming again🤗.  So, it is about pressure today, because the effects that come from giving in to pressure, multiply as the days go by. Worse still, the persons who make it a duty to pump tons and tons of pressure into this world space are not reducing either.   Just look around you. Everywhere is so busy, and sometimes, it may seem like you are merely a spectator, standing by, and watching everyone else do the big things.   Maybe in just one aspect of life, maybe in many others.  Yes, we get them everyday. Especially everywhere on social media. Most of the times, it would look like the train of achievement is packed with people, and moving already, leaving just you behind.  Hi again, here is from me to you: Pick challenges, but leave pressure out of the entire equation.  You know that beautiful thing which you are building, keep at it. One thing you should know is this, our stories are different. Some per...

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.  _____________________________________________

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...

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...

What are you saying??

So, right from when I was very much younger, I used to hear my mom say " Go and sit down, they are too small" or even " you're too small" (referring to me now). She uses it whenever you come with some kind of threatening news or something. It is not like you asked for her opinion on how small they are or anything, she just says it out of reflex, and because that is what she believes. That issue is too small to be the one to disrupt her peace.  Sometimes, she follows it up with.." Do you even know who you are? ?" Or "Do you still remember the God we serve ??". I have not told her yet, but that phrase made me smile always, and gave me the calm I needed for the moment. It boosted my faith many a time, and it still does.        I have had the opportunity to converse with many persons, literate and illiterate, believers and unbelievers, leaders and followers alike, and I have come to know, that it is not based one's status or whatever. Inste...

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...
