We all know about the coming of Christ, but there is more to
it, that meets the eye these days….
Young people die every day at a very young age and due to
various reasons we can and can’t explain, if at all you don’t know any young
person that has died below the age of 50, at least in the past three years you
know of famous celebrities, that have passed on in a tragic way that are about
or below the age of 50 (GOD has promised us we would live up to 70)…………
When we die, we are meant to be in heaven and how we live
our lives down here will be attained too. (This only applies to Christians,
non-Christians go straight to hell)
People who die at a young age get to see Christ at an
unexpected time, they believed that they had much time on earth to live their
lives and act as they want to. They never knew they were going to see Christ so
soon and they were not prepared for the place they were going to “Heaven”
Nobody plans to die young, likewise our beloved ones that
have passed on, in all we do lets all be prepared for the UNEXPECTED MEETING OF
CHRIST
YOU MAY BE THE ONE
GOING OR HE MAY BE THE ONE COMING
Virginity is a
very sensitive word for individuals, some people just laugh at it because they
have lost it or they don’t really take it serious, some consider it as no big
deal, but deep down in the minds of everyone it really means something, especially when we are sober, is it still worth keeping?
We think of how we lost it? Why we lost it? The moment when we lost it was it
worth it? Was the person we gave it up to worth it? People put their conscience
to rest because of one phrase “EVERYBODY IS DOING IT”, I asked a young girl
what virginity meant to her and she insulted me right there and then, Inever
knew it was a sensitive issue for everyone.
I was in a lecture
way back in school when a lecturer was talking about trees, he said trees are
like girls, a forest that has not been touched at all is called a virgin
forest, while a forest that has been touched is called a secondary forest, and
they keep on going in there without no stop taking it down, it becomes a
degraded forest, and there is still an incessant cutting down of trees from
this forest it eventually become a desert, well all the guys were laughing, I
was trying to find out the kind of look the girls were wearing, they looked
like someone was narrating their darkest secret which they were ashamed of, the
man’s explanation was so funny to me, I took out my phone and I started
recording the big joke and a girl from behind hit me and said ‘’why are you
trying to record it?” this just proved how not so funny it was to some people.
Virginity used to be real stuff back then, where parents hammered
down on it and teens took it more seriously when I mean back then I mean my
great grandparents back then!! But now it’s just something the movies have made
to look like it’s just mare emotions, we’re in love or we’re just attracted to
one another so what the heck let’s just do it
I remember while I
was growing up there were some meals I just hated and some I can’t just go a day
without them, it always seemed like the meals I hated seem to be the only thing
that will keep me alive, and my beloved mother will force me to eat them. I
always wish I could eat all the sweets, snacks and meals I wanted every day,
but they tend not to be nutritional at all, but I did everything within my
feeble power not to eat these undesirable dishes, Iwaste time to avoid my
horrible breakfast, skip the unwanted lunches, throw away the tasteless dinner
and I always snick and hide to have my delicious delicacies when they are not
provided. You need to hear the sermon about my meals when I was ill, my mum
made it seem as if I was sick because I refused to eat the dishes she wanted me
to eat, that if I had being eating them I would not be sick, she makes me feel,
all the food I like eating were just over rated! True or false I don’t know?!
It’s the same for sex, being a youth you get the sex talk that abstinence is
best but we think we know best and engage ourselves in strange endeavors, well
we will live with results of our escapades whether good or bad.
In the Yoruba
culture in the olden times, it was a big deal to find out whether the girl to
be married to is a virgin or not, the girl will be checked and if she passes
the exam a full box of matches will be sent to the family of the girl, if not
the box of match will be half full. The weather has changed now we have what we
call “Global warming”, so did human practices in some Yoruba homes, a wife to
be must be pregnant before she gets married, they all treat virginity like it’s
some vintage practice.
Growing up I learnt there was HIV around, that it
spreads like wild fire and it kills people, so there were Ads about how to
prevent it which was abstinence, later as time passed and they figured it
wasn’t working, condoms were being advertised, it seemed to work well they
figured out that everyone likes to do it now and everyone likes to do with
anyone they can find, the Ads were now begging everyone to just stick to one
partner.
Now the way to prevent the contraction of this deadly virus and its
cousins STDs these days is to use the G unit “condom”, because according to
what is happening these days we might want to do it whenever, wherever and with
whomever we can do it with, you may not really love the person or even know the
person for that matter anything can happen, and my guys will always take all
necessary steps to play safe, they keep their little shot-gun anywhere it can
be kept just for the rainy day.
A freshman came to visit me and after the visit, I was escorting
her home and we met a good friend of ours Chris and his girlfriend, we were all
talking and playing, the freshman tried to tickle me and I jumped at it, she
found out that I was very ticklish then she said that one of our very good
friends told her that am a virgin, I just smiled all of a sudden Chris’s
girlfriend jumped to my defense knowing that it was true, said “oh no! He is
not a virgin”, that am not a virgin at all!! she went on to say it’s a great
pride for a girl to be a virgin but it’s certainly not good for a guy to be
one, and I just marveled at this sayings, actually this was not the first time
I was hearing that “it’s not good for a guy not to be a virgin”, what I wonder
about is the fact that it’s pride for girls to keep their virginity, and it’s
not for guys to keep it but what happens to the girls the guys lose their
virginity to, or have sex with, they have nothing to be proud about!!
There is nothing as complicated as sex, for guys and girls, apart from the unwanted results like HIV and
pregnancy, some people fell cheapened, like they have being devalued, they feel
less a human, for any human at all if they have to walk in in a room full of
people and they find out they have spent a night with at least twenty people in
the room, they feel less than garbage, for some people they think this only
applies to girls alone that guys take pride in it well I don’t think so. Back
in school I was walking with a couple of friends and one of the guys wanted to
pee, so he walked some distance from us and turned to the bush and said he
didn’t want any of us to see his stuff, we know him for sleeping around with
the next available thing, we called him public toilet that his stuff has seen
by everyone so what is there to hide.
Parents usually flair up when their kids tend to reach that age,
when they could start dating, they are not really worried about the fact that
their kids are dating but the fact that they could start having sex, just to
imagine their little one engaging in something they really need to matured for,
taunts them like night mares, they try the sex talk, and encourage they save
sex till marriage which they know they won’t because they themselves as parents
didn’t, so they a times say they should have sex with someone they truly love,
and always play safe. The save sex till marriage thing is beginning to dwindle
from generation to generation because of so many countless reasons, some people
just don’t believe in it , for some it just happen that they were too in love
they didn’t know how they lost it, some claim they had to have sex to keep
their beloved one, for some it was something they couldn’t control, a force
that took charge of the situation that one could not fight against then and
there and the reasons just go on and on, well for any critic there is one thing
they will always say YOU HAD A CHOICE!!!
The things that happen in one’s life tends to happen according to
one word ‘’principle’’, some people want to be rich, some just want a
comfortable life, some want to visit all the parts of the world, some want to
get married while some don’t want to, some want children and some don’t want
any at all, this life we live is governed by principles. Growing up as
individuals we all had some basic principles about life and
the choices we planned on making in it, well the laws we laid down for our
lives do not really cover all areas, but some people made up their minds on
what to do and what not to do about sex, some planned on saving it till
marriage and lost it along the way, some just planned on having it with the one
they love the most and so many more unexplainable reasons, while some still had
virginity with them and gave it all up in marriage because they had made up
their mind on what they wanted and they chased it till the very end.
Decision making tends to be one of the hardest
thing in a human’s life, we tend to find ourselves at tight corners atall times,
especially when it comes to the ones that will change our lives forever, a
decision one must not take the wrong turn, to me when making a decision I
always consider one thing, that when am in my 80s, 90s, or even more than these
age ranges, that what will I say I made
of my life and its choices, all I just want to do at that age is to smile and
say to myself not minding what anybody thinks of me is “you did the right thing
man” with no regret.
you cannot blame your parents for the life
that you have, they were supposed to give you one thing and one thing only life
and it’s what you make out of it that counts, and not what they did or didn’t
do stop blaming anybody for the happenings in your life it’s yours not mine
there’s only one person that can ruin it for you and that’s you!!
You have heard of it, you
just never seemed to try it!!!
Its a type of sex
that is 100% safe, no protection is needed, the medical society have satisfied this
sex style to be safe and both partners are guaranteed to have total
satisfaction only if you both want it badly…..
ATTENTION!!
This style of
sex is not intended for married couples, most of them have grown old and
marriage is mostly boring that they can’t attempt anything new they should
probably keep off!! It’s designed for people who are looking for ways to
improve their sexual lives and have the energy for it!!!
Its demands that you and
your partner be totally connected body, soul and spirit…….
Total attention should be
given to it during the process; satisfaction is only derived, on how badly you
want to improve your sex life?!!
It’s easy, applicable to any
kind of person with all shapes and sizes……
You are not committing any
kind of sin during this process, you don’t have to feel guilty during this
process, just relax and have fun as you’re meant to be and satisfying your
partner as well!!!
And this sex style
is……………………
Abstinence!!! I Know you are probably pissed
after that phrase, but what the hell aren’t you tired of the relationships
based on sex all the time, don’t you want something real after all these years!!!
Several abortion, unwanted
pregnancies and sexual diseases have ruined the lives of many, think twice
before you decide to get down next time, is it worth it??!!!
A survey was taken a few
years ago, and a question was asked would anybody like to know when they will
die, most people did not want to know while others just wanted to know, well
the truth is nobody wants to know when they will eventually kick the bucket, we
all want to imagine we have all the time in the world to ourselves, actually we
don’t, when you get to have a conversation with an elderly person you will
learn that life is short, you will probably wonder and ask yourself but this
person had about 70 years to live and he says life is too short?It’s really short when you had a lot of time
on your hands and the only things you achieved were but a few things.
Everyone remembers that
terrible earthquake that hit Haiti, and all the donations that was made to help
the citizens of that country to regain their lives, the donation that caught my
eye was that of a little girl she was able to donate N90,000 ($600), and
everyone was surprised, well I was also surprised, the thing that crossed my
mind was if this little girl who was less than 12 dies now she would be
remembered forher ability to do
something great when we think of it as impossible, then I began to wonder what
if I die now and am a decade older, what great thing will everyone around me
remember me for apart from my human qualities, was I able to do anything
remarkable that will cross their minds? Well I wonder about the people I know,
what about the people I don’t know? Will this just be foot prints on the shores
of the beach, and no trace at all can be made to the fact that I was once here!
I have to do something out of the ordinary to make sure these prints stay on
this beach or else I have just been a waste of space on this planet!
Have you lived on this
planet for at least a decade and a half, that, means you can count up to five
people that you know, that have died before the age of fifty, whether the death
was natural, or the person had an unforeseen event that lead to his/her death,
we can all make that count. Does this prove that the time we have to live in
this round ball called earth is getting shorter? Yes it is! And what can do we
have to say for this short time we have on this planet? The psalmist says “the
life of man is like a fleeting breath”.Let’s all make haste while the sun shines, because when the night time
comes we can’t but work no more, opportunities for us to achieve some remarkable
things in life do not last forever. I’m not saying we’re all going to die soon.
Its quite scary, but the death of anyyone around takes us by surprise, and all
we have to say about their lives if we were to write a book about them will
just be a paragraph.
We are meant to go to school in the early part
of our lives, after this process we are equipped to achieve greatness in our
lives. In school we get educated, we are laying a solid for foundation for our
lives, in school we learn to read the map of life, we learn how to use the
tools we are provided with, like how to manage our talents, how to get some
skills and sharpen them, with this and more training in any school we find
ourselves in the world, we will be empowered to get on with life, be
self-dependent and achieve greatness no matter how little.
People tend to think that
they have attained success, by accumulating the things of life, we all tend to
take the wrong turn on the road of life by chasing the two “Fs” fame and
fortune, we all think that when we achieve these two or at least one of them,
fortune, we think we have reached that perfect place, where we can say we have
achieve greatness. So many rich people have died and have not made any positive
impact in the lives of anyone around, they failed to develop themselves or try
to go an extra mile in doing something remarkable, because they think they have
accumulated wealth and they feel they do not have to go further, people fail to
realize that getting fame and fortune to one’s selfis not reaching the finish line, but it’s
just being equipped to start a race in life to achieve a whole lot” to whom
much is given much is expected”.
We may not have the
opportunity to do anything extraordinary like save the world, create something
remarkable like a new technology gadget or social network, we may not be really
talented to act or sing but we should learn to do what we do very well and at
most at our very best.
LIFE IS LIKE A PLAIN SHEET OF PAPER, WE’RE
THE PAINTERS OF OUR LIVES WHAT OUR PICTURE WILL LOOK LIKE IS DETERMINED BY WHAT
WE’VE PAINTED
In the year 2001
MTN came into Nigeria being the first mobile phone network in Nigeria, which encouraged
other mobile phone service providers to come into the country. Over the years
the services of MTN have being ofaverage performance which comes with a high price (which cannot be taken
in other countries) they gained 42million users over the past 11 years and
making a lot of profit from us (and giving back so little to us).
The wacky internet
service that we all depend on from Blackberry phones to computers,
MTN connects over
42 million Nigerians everyday including politicians and all office holders,
business owners and their customers, Doctors to patients, loved ones in distant
villages and so on.
Let’s all imagine
if for one day MTN has a system shutdown in Nigeria, the paralyzing effect it
will have on the economy and its people, it will be …………
All we really had
to watch on T.V was NTA, until cable came into the country which was first
introduced by DSTV and other cable providers followed suit. The effect of cable
in the economy was positive; one could get updates of the outside world and
watch what one wants to watch all day and all night at an exorbitant price.
Some Nigerian stations rely on some Dstv
stations for their international NEWS coverage, Dstv Entertainment
channelsprovide music lovers with the latest
music, people who love to get the latest gist about any and every thing about
the entertainment world at anytime..
The love for sport
got encouraged and increased by the number of channels dedicated to sport for
sport lovers. Nigerians used this to create viewing centers for sport loving
fans who could not afford to watch the match in their home alone or who could
not afford it at all
Now let’s imagine
if we send Dstv packing the ripple effect…………………….
Nigerians that
shop at Shoprite shop there like the mall has always being there since the very
creation of the country, they have every and anything at affordable prices, and the
design and structure of the whole mall encourage other shops to be opened in
the mall.
They bank our
money with their bank “Stanbic bank”, they enable Nigerians to talk from
wherever they are in the country at anytime with MTN, they provide the nation
with what to watch when they turn on the T.V with Dstv.
All these
companies and more also employ a great number of Nigerians
Can South Africa
hold Nigeria to ransom as the power and number of their companies increase each
day in the country?
I wonder what we
Nigerians are looking at as South Africans are setting up our country for us…..
Well I never knew we had an
accent until I heard a white woman being interviewed on the NEWS I can’t really
recall the T.V station and the white woman spoke like a Nigerian in proper
Nigerian accent no strange tone nation was found at all, one will wonder if she
was Nigerian. I mean it was as if she has a whole generation down here in Nigeria
like every other ‘’Naija”. I screamed immediately she finished speaking that
this has woman got a Nigerian accent. It just never occurred to me that there
was one? Well how would it ever occur to me, when the most wanted presenters in
Nigeria are using funny accents you don’t regularly hear every day, the choir
in church will have to use some kind of foreign accent to deliver their special
number, and presenters keep on speaking in accents so strange you will wonder
if they are speaking in tongues.
I know many of us would have
come across an American soap or movies were someone has to portray a Nigerian
and the person is just saying something we can’t identify with. It’s really
annoying when some Hollywood actor is speaking pidgeon English sounding like a
dork. We know Hollywood for their humungous budget they spend on movies yet
can’t cast someone who can speak proper Yoruba or make the big actor or actress
learn Nigerian accent. I have not seen any of them get it properly.
As the saying goes ‘’when in
Rome act like the Romans do”, when young Nigerians leave the country to some
foreign land where everything they do is different from how we do things around
here, they tend to do what everyone is doing to belong, so the native accent
disappears and the foreign one comes in, when they come back to the home land,
they never lose the foreign way of speaking, even when they speak their
traditional language, they speak it in such a funny manner. There is nothing
bad that could possibly happen to anyone of us when we travel to any foreign
nation and we still maintain our GOD given NIGERIAN ACCENT!!! You’re just being
really patriotic when you keep your accent, because when you go white like
Michael Jackson it’s really hard to come back, ‘’Naija accent hard to get
o!!”
I remember the phonics classes
in primary and secondary school, when the teachers tried to teach us the proper
way of pronunciation they end up sounding like, someone that has half of his
tongue cut off. I remember a particular day when my class teacher Mr. Ossai was
teaching us phonics, he had been taught the proper way words should be
pronounced, so a class was organized and he started teaching us. Mr. Vincent
and a supervisor who probably taught him was in the class, as he was his
teaching, he just burst into laughter, and it was funny!! He probably too didn’t
get it why do we have to sound so funny to pronounce English the right way?
Check the Ghanaians out they don’t have to sound funny to pronounce the words
in English properly yet they still rock the English language, it’s said that
they are one of the only nations that speak English very well, well according
to the way the dictionary says words should actually be pronounced.
Well to everyone out there
wondering how the Nigerian accent sounds like, it sounds actually different
from every Nigerian language. We have over a 100 languages in this country and
every one of us have a different way of speaking English. As long as your
traditional language is Nigerian and you speak English and sound funny what the
heck!! You’re speaking English the Nigerian way, which is the Nigerian accent,
even if you sound a lot like this “I dey craz” like the Hausas do. Well for
anyone still wondering how the Nigerian accent still sounds without any
traditional influence listen to the President of the Republic
of Nigeria the way he sounds is the way the Nigerian accent sounds!! O SE!
Steven
Spielberg directed a
great story but not a great movie as everyone makes it to be……
Albert
Narracott (Jeremy Irvine) is a young chap that watched the birth of a foal in
Devon England, since the birth of the horse Albert has been monitoring the
horse and trying to get in contact with it.
Ted
Albert’s Father goes to a horse Auctioning, and buys the horse, he was young
and untrained, not capable to really do much his friend warned him, that he
needed a plough horse for the farm. Bringing home the horse the son is excited
and the mother unpleased at Ted’s decision to buy an animal that can’t be used
on the farm, but Albert convinces his mother he would break him in.
Ted was
just begging his way through rent, due to the long period of time it took the
horse to be trained. Finally the horse is trained, and he works on the farm and
helps with production, but there was bad rain that destroyed the crops on the
farm.
Ted sells Joey
to Captain Nicholls (Tom Hiddleston) a Calvary officer, he gets trained and he
is ready for war.
Captain
Nicholls was killed in the attack of the Germans, and Joey was used to pull
ambulance used to convey injured soldiers by Private Michael Schröder (Leonard
Carow), who had a brother Private Gunther Schröder (David Kross), that was
fourteen.
Michael tried
to run away with his brother, using Joey and Topthorn, a horse Joey got
attached to when he just got into Calvary camp. They first ran off to a farm,
to later leave for Italy the next day, but they were found by their own
soldiers, and they were executed for desertion by firing squad
A girl
with brittle bones Emilie (Celine Buckens) who lives with her Grandfather (Niels
Arestrup ) on the farm, found the horses, and took care of them. They were
later found by the Army, as Emile was riding Joey, they were taken from them
and used to pull Artillery
A German
soldier taking care of the horses pays special attention to them, but at the
end Joey’s friend Topthorn dies, Joey later runs away to no man’s land running away
from being attacked , finding himself between the trenches of the British and
the German’s. He was wrapped around with barbed wires and was later rescued by
a German and a British Soldier coming out of their trenches, they flip a coin
deciding who gets him; the British Soldier Colin got Joey.
Albert
went blind in the war due to the gas that was released in the trench of the
opposition in the war, he learns that a miracle horse survived the war, as the
horse was about to get shot due to the injuries it incurred, Albert makes the
owl noise he used to raise Joey, the noise catches Joey’s attention and he runs
to Albert, and he gets to keep the horse after explaining that, the horse was
his by telling of the markings on the horse
In keeping
Joey, Albert had to win in biding Joey out of an auction because, only officers’
horses were transported back home while the rest are auctioned off. The soldiers
gathered up money to help Albert, but someone already out bids them to 100
pounds, Emile’s Grandfather.
Albert
begs for him but Emile’s Grandfather says it’s all he has left of Emile, as
they leave , Joey runs back to Albert,
as he sees this, he returns the horse back to Albert, saying its what
Emile would have wanted.
Albert
returns home with the horse………
My
thoughts
It’s a story
about a horse “Joey” been handed around to different kinds of people, doing
different kinds of jobs, in different of places, and finally finding his second
but first true and official owner.
Steven
Spielberg directed a
great story, not a great movie; it was just a horse that just happened to move
or to be moved by someone or itself. Joey had different owners, but destiny got
him back to his true owner.
Virtues of
the movie
There are
different ways to be brave
You can be
brave enough to refuse to be proud about the good you have done in life like
Ted Narracott
Or You can
Fly over war without looking down it will be called “being brave”….any how you
choose to be brave but don’t judge any man on not being brave, everyone has
their own way of displaying the act of bravery..
Walking up to a girl is hard, so methods
are created to ease the approach. Punch lines are developed like, “What is GOD
doing right now? He probably must be sleeping; I wonder why he would let a
precious gem like you out of his sight tonight? Some girls would trip for that
kind of approach, but most girls have had enough.
The boys have done their research and
they found a style that seems to work, “Famzing”. It’s the act of approaching
chicks in a manner one would approach an old friend. It makes whoever that is
approached to immediately feel comfortable. One does not have to bother about
subjects to bring up during the conversation, because the girl that caught the “famzing
virus” will also be bringing up stuffs.
There was this chick that caught my eyes;
I was tired of the regular approach, what is your name? What are you into? Or
what do you really like doing? The regular blah, blah, blah, got me sick. So I
took to famzing. Did it work? Oh Yeah! She did the talking must times, I just
have to ask some questions, and I don’t have to bother myself how to keep her
interested.
Famzing doesn’t let anyone really know
anything about each other, I learnt her name when someone called her from a
distance, and she learnt mine when she wanted to store my phone number. The
peril of famzing is that you end up knowing little or nothing of each other.
We always talked about life situations
and happenings, and it’s our different contribution that kept the discussions
lively, we both had different views of life.
We got closer with each time we met, I
found out that she was the kind of girl I would like to put the ring on her
index finger, as I was about to ask out her after about 5 months of famzing, at
that particular moment in time, another topic came up, and she was talking
about how hard working guys are meant to be, and I decided to ask her, do you
think am hardworking?
The whole world came to a pause for me
with her direct answer, I don’t know you and I don’t know anything about you!!!
Why didn’t I see this coming? Why did I let this famzing thingy go too far?
In all I lost her, as I was planning on
using the valentine atmosphere, different things came up in our lives we had to
move to different ends of the world.
Famzing makes people just friends, instead of
more than friends if not handled well. The girl or even guy will not have
anything to think about you (the real you), learn and know how to drop the
famzing act, six months people use to court, I used it to Famz! Well she’s in
town for Valentine at least we have that to share before we go our separate
ways.
Joseph, son of
Israel (Jacob) andRachel lived in the land ofCanaanwith eleven brothers. He was
Rachel's firstborn and Israel's eleventh son. Of all the sons, Joseph was loved
by his father the most. Israel even arrayed Joseph with a "longcoat of many colors".Israel's favoritism toward Joseph
caused his half brothers to hate him, and when Joseph was seventeen old he had
two dreams that made his brothers plot his demise. In the first dream, Joseph
and his brothers gathered bundles of grain. Then, all of the grain bundles that
had been prepared by the brothers gathered around Joseph's bundle and bowed
down to it. In the second dream, the sun (father), the moon (mother) and eleven
stars (brothers) bowed down to Joseph himself. When he told these two dreams to
his brothers, they despised him for the implications that the family would be bowing
down to Joseph. They became jealous that their father would even ponder over
Joseph's words concerning these dreams. (Genesis 37:1-11)
The ability
This young teenager had the ability to turn wood to paper
from paper to money, everybody that was his boss easily noticed this, as young
as he was his father sent him to search for his older brothers alone, his
father loved him so much, trusted him and believed that he could do adult
duties like search for his brothers kilometers away from home which included,
having dangerous encounters on the way. No matter how much we love someone or
our parents love us they cannot entrust some duties to us because they believe
we will falter. Joseph must have being getting all duties assigned to him well
done, which proves his ability to carryout harder task and be trusted with
them… Can you be trusted with small tasks from there to bigger tasks…..?
At Potiphar’s Crib
This young teen has just been
sold by the last people he would never think that would sell him, is now going
through emotional depression, he is shocked, bewildered at what is brothers
have done to him, he just lost his mom when she was giving birth to his younger
brother, now he has lost his whole family in a twinkle of an eye. Instead of
getting comfort and tender loving care from somebody, he got the job of a no
class citizen, he did not let his emotional stress affect his approach to work
for his master, instead he worked hard at his assigned post, and he did not
complain. He did his job well and he was promoted, to handle higher tasks, he
did well and he was made to handle the position of the guy that supervises
everyone, he did his so well and he became attractive……………..
Tame that Hormone
Joseph probably learnt how to
control his hormones when he learnt what happened to his sister Dinah, (she was
raped by her supposed boyfriend, the boy his family and friends were killed by
Simon and Levi), so when Potiphar’s wife tempted him, he had flash backs about
Dinah, he remembered that he was a child of God, and he cannot afford to do
anything wrong, he just got promoted and besides he has being a good boy he got
sold what will probably happen if he started acting badly………………………….
The no reason experience
“This is what I get for being a
good boy only GOD knows what I will get if I was a bad boy geezz”
Joseph got demoted from a no
citizen, to a prisoner geezz!! Life really got complicated for Joseph, “I lost
my mum, am trying to adjust to the fact of just having a step-mom and no real
mom, I loose my whole family in a flash for no reason, I get a good job in an
officer’s house, the officer’s wife starts coming unto me, geezz I never knew I
was that good looking, I avoided her now I get locked-up for good behavior, but
they claim I tried to rape her, when she even assaulted me oh my! I need a
lawyer!
After Joseph finished thinking to
himself he found a group of people ‘the for no-reason club’, they were sent to
prison for no reason, one a butler and the other baker, they had bad dreams Joseph
asked them about it interpreted it for them, one was going to be restored to
the palace the other was going to be evicted from planet earth forcefully, in
three days. Joseph quickly told the butler that he should remember him when he
is restored.
Three days past, three months,
Joseph was still in prison but he handled every little job that was given him
well, he got promoted to head of prison operations……..
Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The king had bad dreams about
some good cows and plants eaten up by bad cows and plants and they did not
change after they ate them, the king was worried so he called his juju guys to
help, but the devil did not understand the dream too, so he could not tell them
anything.The butler had a brain wave
and remembered Joseph that interpreted his dream and he told the king, the king
got excited and wanted to see joseph………….
From P to P to P to P because of one P

There was a supposed story that one night
President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine
and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn't too luxurious. When they
were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the President's Secret Service
if he could please speak to the First Lady in private. They obliged and
Michelle had a conversation with the owner.
Following this conversation President Obama asked Michelle, "Why was he so
interested in talking to you?" She mentioned that in her teenage years, he
had been madly in love with her. President Obama then said, "So if you had
married him, you would now be the owner of this lovely restaurant," to
which Michelle responded, "No. If I had married him, he would now be the
President
We
all know the super stars, but we don’t know their managersand publicist, we all know the great sports
men and women but we tend to forget the names of their coaches after some time,
we all know the record breakers but we don’t know the people who kept them in
line. We always admire the beauty of the cake and never the utensils that were
used to make them……….
Who
else would play the role of telling Mohammed Ali the right way to throw punches
and dodge them? And keep on encouraging him to keep on going, to keep on
pushing that there is a break through right out the door? Who else will carry
him on than his under dogs? There was always a particular time when the greats couldn’t
keep on going, there were some times they just wanted to quit, they were just
swerving on the wrong part. But there was that wife that put them on the right
part, there was that Personal Assistant that explained the repercussion of the
next action. There has to be that person looking for a way the Singer can sell
more records, there has to be that person that helps the scientist not to quit
on the seemingly research, what life will be like if there was no one to tell anyone
that there will be light right out the tunnel one day.
For
us humans we play the underdog for one person or the other, we must learn to be
patient, ready to take insults from our Supervisors or our friends, because it isn’t
easy being everyone’s hero, because there are always great expectation wanted
from them by the world, and any mistake blows of criticism will hit hard. One
has to be humble, don’t be envious of the celebrities, most celebrities are
always thankful to some people because they know they couldn’t be where they
are right now without you, because you were there to help them birth their dreams
amidst all impossibilities and difficulties to carry on when no positive result
was showing up, when the divorce hit hard on them you where the shoulder to
lean on, you pulled them through the bad situations and made them reach their
destination. When you play the background guy you are able to view your trainee
the way they cannot see themselves, they can’t view their flaws themselves, you
can see were they are getting it wrong and you help them pull through to get it
right “no man is an island”. The President can’t rule on his own he needs his
advisers to give some new ideas to get the nation to the next level, he may not
acknowledge his advisers when people are praisinghim “a job well done”, but who cares? What is
on your mind is getting the job done, you see the task ahead of them and you
know they can’t carry on by themselves and you know the best turn the whole
working process should take.In
Basketball there is a training where a person throws the ball to a player and
the players makes a basket, the result of the basket is dependent on the on how
the player makes the basket and also how the ball was given to him, you work
hard for someone to make the basket and the whole result a times just depends
on your pass
There
is a saying that goes that “behind every great man there is a woman”, but right
here “behind every great man there is a person(s) pushing the buttons to make
everything work out”, the guy that found Justin Beiber said in his movie “Never
say never” that” “we are comfortable being the underdogas far as we make everything happen”in all you do tryyour best in being the underdog because
without you there is no them.
THE ULTIMATE SATISFACTION OF AN UNDERDOG
IS THE SUCCESSFUL REALIZATION OF DREAMS OF THEIR TRAINEE
Several things have occupied Nigeria over the years that
have being bad. For instance corruption, poor infrastructure, injustice (making
useless of the human rights), high mortality rate between mother and child
during delivery. But we have not addressed all these things by taking drastic
actions to tell the Government that what they are doing is wrong and we can’t
take it.
The removal of subsidy on petrol is something we cannot get
by, we cannot afford to over look the senseless action by the Government on the
masses. This action will affect us in every areas of our lives in which we
cannot keep up with own very existence, that is why we Nigerians have decided
to fight back, with all we can, we are not going to back down on what we want,
that is the former Price of Petrol which is “N65” which is now “N141” which is ridiculous,
a 120% increase!!!!
The effects of this
action are on the blog titled “Ten things that will happen if we let
Deregulation Of Petrol
stay”
