The Woman's Place

In these few years God has blessed me with on earth,I have seen so many things:the good,the bad,the ugly.I am so curious about men and their way of thinking.He is driving on the road,he is looking,in the office,he is looking,in the park,he is looking,even in church he is looking...Chei!what is it?.He gladly boasts that every man is wired that way,he couldn't be different. Ladies,have you ever been looked at by a guy so badly that you almost puked?There are those whose stares make you feel like smacking them behind and saying,don't be silly!.There are others whose stares make you feel embarrased and uncomfortable but there are those who make you feel like a queen made to be worshipped.Hahah...yea,I know that feeling...hey,don't worry the feeling is mutual.I like it too.I mean who doesn't want to feel wanted?. However,I am particularly curious about why some men just go bonkers at the sight of a woman.Why his nose will trace a perfume to the owner?Why his mouth will hang ...

A dear friend once shared his childhood memories with me.He painted a picture so vivid,I felt I was present there.He remembered his late father who didnt have any formal education teaching him some letters and numbers in his local dialect.The old man did this best,when it had just rained and the ground was wet.The rains would have washed the ground so clean that the old man could use it as his slate and his forefinger would naturally become his chalk.He would inscribe the numbers and letters for my friend who will read aloud to the joy of his father.His fast learning abilities convinced his father to invest in his education.His father's joy strenghtened his willingness to study hard.He made a vow to his father to make him proud.He swore to make a difference in his family and clan.He has successfully done this.Today,he is a great challenge to his contemporaries.Though,the old man is dead,if the dead have any feelings,he would have no regrets that he showed his son love.Love is stren...

I cannot but keep asking why our world is the way it is.A place where stand is run and run means a command to stand at attention.Why is evil so easy to live with and the good so hard to tolerate?Why would people consciously decide to become armed robbers and prostitutes and wholeheartedly blame it on the society?Why do politicians shamelessly steal public funds and the name embezzlement hypes it endlessly?Why would a married man constantly prove that marriage is a license to commit adultery?Why would dating an older man who is married be celebrated by any woman at all?Why is sex so cheap these days?Why are religious leaders worshipping money rather than God?Endless whys...but wait...why are we so judgemental and so quick to draw conclusions? I was on my way home from work last week at about 9pm when I saw a little boy.I couldn't resist stopping to ask him what he was doing at that time in the heart of a city.Just before I opened my mouth to ask,I saw a bowl full of satchets of wate...

As each day passes,I see that so many people do not understand what sharing love is all about.Just last night,I saw a man,not a boy.I mean a full fledged man beating up a lady just by the roadside as if she were some common thief.On inquiry,I discovered she was his girlfriend.Did I hear you say,what?!!!.mhnnn...the feeling is mutual,but come to think of it,he may have had a reason which he felt was good enough to beat her up.Someone may say no reason is good enough...chapter closed. I remember sharing with you earlier that every person has a reason for every action he/she takes,wether good or bad.If he had beat her to death,he will still have a reason for his action and he would engage the services of a lawyer who will readily defend him in the court of law.That's the kind of world we live in...simply void of love. You know,on television this morning,I just kept hearing the news on rape.In case you are thinking the victim may have caused it for herself,well sorry to diasppoint ...

When life is just incomprehensible and seems to make no sense every passing day.When what you have is not what you want and what you want is not what you have.When can cook won't cook and can't cook will cook.When you are tired and angry,down and out.When you know you have to talk to someone but won't talk to the person.When you love so much but feel not loved.When you think there is no hope and tomorrow seems like a thousand years to come.When you can't help but cry and feel alone in the world.When life has no meaning anymore...remember this:It doesn't change God and so it doesn't change love,since God is love. Life has it's intricacies and is full of endless surprises,sometimes is happy times and other times it is generally sad.Whatever feelings we have about life,the truth remains that it is not peculiar to us.Many have walked the paths we are on now and many more will still walk on it.Life is what we make of it,like the saying;"how you make your bed...

At a point in my life,it was obvious I lost so many friends.Oh,but truly, life sucks at times... The frequent phone buzzing,the numerous e-mails,the endless list of acquaintances and so-called friends who just appeared at your doorstep without invitation or prior notice simply disappeared.I suddenly did not matter anymore.A drama of betrayal unfolded before me and taught me that every scene in the act was the interpretation of the human world.A world void of true love and the gift of sharing love even in the smallest of ways. A friend of mine was recently betrayed by someone he was helping out.So bad it was that his life was even threatened by the guy.You see,no matter how much we may want to judge bad behaviour and conclude that there is no good reward for bad behaviours,always remember that everything anyone does is done for a reason.People can be bullies in order to get their way,they can turn abusive,put others down,put up all sorts of behaviour just to get some kind of attention,b...

You know,any given opportunity to share love is actually an opportunity to be blessed.Think about the first time you ever put a smile on anyone's face.Can you remember the joy you felt and that sense of fulfilment that filled you momentarily?. On her corridor,she always hung her clothes.It seemed like everyday to me,because whenever I was returning from school,I was sure to see her clothes on the line.I would always climb the bench on the corridor so my little fingers could at least touch the hem of the garments. I always looked forward to her return,so I could tell her I helped her remove her clothes from the lines.She had a lovely smile that crowned my day.Once I got that smile from her I hurried off,because to me that was the only appreciation I needed-her happiness.I was about four and she was well over fifty, a childless widow. Oh,and the Umbrella repairer who had his little shop just by the school gate.I could never forget him.The car would always stop me by his shop.Once I g...

Knowledge,to me is closely linked to our identity.sharing is generally a willful method of disemminating useful information to other people.By sharing, we build realationships so that what we share is received and treated with respect.Actually,knowledge sharing and relationships are interlinked.It is therefore,imperative that we share love which is the bedrock of any lasting relationship. Why am I sharing anyway? I know you are just wondering why you should bother about sharing anyway,you probably feel you are not loved enough or not loved at all.mhnnn...the question is how much love do you give,how much love can you afford to share? Well,you know what they say,habits die hard...I simply love to share and again I share out of a sense of responsibility for my future...."what you sow is what you reap!".I feel there is a huge gap that needs us to fill it,simply by sharing love. This love could be for that husband who isn't living up to responsibility,that wife who wouldn...

I hear the birds singing,the sound of the rushing wind makes me want to fly,the sight of the stream dancing on the rocks with heels as bright as the morning.The trees saluting nature's decision with a bow to all directions.The sun hides behind the sky so blue that only the blue roses scattered along this path I walk can match its beauty.Amazed at nature's picture...I wonder Now I can hear the birds songs clearly...I want to know you more,I want to exchange ideas,I want to appreciate your personality,I want to give you a platform to be yourself and achieve your goals.I basically want to share your dreams.Join me,come let us share.... Let me make your dreams come true,let me fulfill your heart desires,let us share nothing,absolutely nothing but love.Living is loving and loving is living life absolutely...
