This past week...

I just noticed that almost everyone in my office is either itchy,acting frustrated or just nursing a wound under their skin.Have you ever worked in an environment where there is so much animosity that you literally feel it?If not,then welcome to my world!.You know I keep asking why anyone should blame anyone for his/her situation in life.I am personally of the school of thought that celebrates taking responsibilty for oneself:your actions and circumstances!.Life has different shades and for God's sakes everyone must at one time or another see these different shades.If it was all green or purple once upon a time,then be sure to welcome black and blue times too.

A colleague of mine would walk into the office wearing this long face you would think this  dear colleague of mine just hit a trailer!.This same person would let off vibes on FB,(thank God for Facebook,at least you can rant there!)dissing the company and the bosses,calling them mediocres...hahaha,chei!.Why would you remain in a place where the people who lead you are mediocres?If mediocres are bossing you around,what does it make you?Your guess is as good as mine.If you are working in a place you genuinely believe is below your standards,the sanest thing to do for your beloved self is to move away quickly so that the "mediocres" don't rob you of the A-Class left in you.Don't frustrate yourself and others showing face in that same place every working day acting coy.Nobody should have any excuse to stick around medoicres.Why overburden your dear heart with so much animosity?Why suffer yourself so terribly because you wouldn't tell yourself the truth?Why severe your relationship with your maker because of misplaced judgement which you have no right to?Free youself from the spirit of mediocrity,stop hating anybody for your "predicaament".Afterall you accepted and signed your employment letter!.

Be the champion,take a bow now that the ovation is loudest!Why blame others?

Why do they keep staring?

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 ...

Reasons for sharing

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...

Tired of giving!

Oops!it's been rain rain rain in this part of my world for the past one week.At times it can be really annoying,especially when you have planned a fun day and the rains come pouring down making the ground all wet and irritating.If there is anything I love to do,it is shopping.I had planned to go shopping and the rain wouldn't just go away so I threw caution to the wind and grabbed my little umbrella.Out in the rain I went,quickly hailed a cab and zoomed to the market. The entrance to the market was something else.Obviously like me,the rain couldn't deter so many people.People were milling around everywhere,even beggars sat put in their positions begging for alms from all who passed them.One of them particularly caught my attention.Unlike others he was standing,his buttons were all undone and I saw something like a rope connected to his navel,tracing the end,I saw something like a drip or something but some kind of satchet with some content in it in his hand and then there w...
