Relationship Goals Relationships are integral to humanity. No one exists without it. We are all tied, in one way or the other, in a relationship. And in any relationship, there exists conflict. At often times conflict becomes one of our life's greatest nemeses. But we do have power over our own reactions towards conflicting situations. Are we willing to exercise that power? That is a different matter that may need resolve. You know what they say, "birds of the same feathers flock together". What if two same-feathered birds end up wringing each others' necks in due course because of some misunderstanding? Ok, that is pretty extreme. Let's try another example - gentler. What if two same-feathered birds end up not speaking to each other in due course because of a big misunderstanding? And then the other says things about the other and vice versa, and the situation worsens upon being confronted because irretrievable words have already been spoken against...

Self Destruction "Comparison is an act of violence against the self." - Iyanla Vanzant We hear voices in our head a million times. The voices are our attitude towards ourselves. The voices are our perception towards others. The action that proceeds the voices are our chosen reactions. Chances are, we destroy elements in the process. Relationships are too many an example of what commonly suffer from our choice to react toward negative, unrelenting voices. On the other hand, self also becomes the primary victim. A person's overall wellness also include mental and behavioural soundness. In today's world of perfectionism, stress related self-destruct takes a big spot on life's stages especially when they are not controlled and when one loses grip of reality versus idealism. Self-destruct is also defined as "to make yourself fail." How could anyone want to fail, let alone make one's self fail, lest it be for a very compelling, negative reas...

Hey guys!. I do hope you get motivated with this short article. I never wanted a dream so bad but this made me cry. I seriously thought I faced the end of my life when things finally started looking like the end. I thought I died. There are many things to pursue in this world. But the things that are hardest to attain become possible to you when someone finally gets it - naturally. I tapped into God's best. But I am just scratching the surface. Loving what you do is what matters. Reasons uncover purpose. It is what makes someone wake up every morning with intention. And another day is fulfilled. The daily grind can take its course. But it cannot take away reason. Your reason takes you to another dimension. It takes you forward. My reasons are simple. To give glory to God, to honor my parents, support my siblings and make them happy. What I do in my life surrounds these reasons. As long as I achieve them daily, I am content. I am complete. People have big wants and big...

So this is an article I found in a friend's blog...Not going change many wordings...And am going to give a direct link.. Deep thoughts.. 4:45am. I am super high and exploring Indie summer songs and autoplay decides to bless me with a song I'm later to fall in love with. Ugly Heart by disbanded girl group G.R.L. 0.02 seconds into the song and my friend starts telling me the story of one of the band members Simone Battle. As inquisitive and obsessed with things as I am, my friend's story isn't enough for me so I go in search of articles about her and I read the most heartbreaking thing that became the inspiration for my first blog post. She killed herself. Found dead in her bedroom closet. She hung herself due to depression she had been dealing with for months. Depression isn't something to joke around with, it has beenthe cause of many deaths in the past year and the more I learn about suicide stories caused by depression, I thin...

Hi guys..So I came across this(not new sha) but i figure some people are in my category which hasn't seen this before. Read on! A remarkable photo has captured a weasel on a woodpecker’s back as the bird flies through the air. The photographer, Martin Le-May from Essex, said he “feared the worst” for the green bird after hearing “distressed squawking” during its struggle with the mammal at Hornchurch Country Park. After Le-May managed to capture the incredible image – which has become a hit on Twitter since it was taken earlier – the creature managed to escape with its life. A close up of the image shows the woodpecker in clear distress. Credit: Martin Le-May Slightly blurred images also captured the rest of the battle. The weasel clings to the bird’s back. Credit: Martin Le-May The bird then takes flight in an attempt to escape attack. Credit: Martin Le-May Describing the events to ITV News, Le-May said he was taking a walk with his wife when the battle ...

"The path of least resistance leads to crooked rivers and crooked men."                       -- Henry David Thoreau I have a reputation. All of my life I've been known in my circles as "the one with the willpower." "I wish I had your discipline," they'd say. I'm the guy that has always risen early. Army PT, work, whatever. Set your clock to it. I'm the guy who stops after  one  scoop of ice cream. "I just wanted the taste. I've had enough." I don't miss workouts. I just don't. I may have to do it later or earlier than planned. I may have to do it at home instead of in class. But I do it. And for over 3 years now, I've written almost every day. My secret? I take  Resistance  with me wherever I go. Well, more like she follows me. I've tried to shake her, but she's always there. But I  know  she's there, and always will be, so I p...

samson I spend most of my time on the net so i get to see different stories. Mind blowing ones to be precise.Here is one.Do hope you enjoy it. My son and I have been reading the book of Judges, and we came across the story of Samson. My son immediately waved is hand dismissively, stating, "I know that story." He's had these manga bible stories for quite some time, and references them frequently, but like I usually tell him, those are animated and much of the text is omitted. They stick to the basics of the more well-known stories, but there is much lost if only something like that is relied on, because everything in that bible is there for a reason and a purpose. So, knowing the basics of the story myself, I was interested to see what God might point out to me. We had already covered the beginning of Samson's story, concerning the foretelling of his birth. So we started this particular study on chapter 14 of the book of Judges. However, I just...

Hello readers, so I came across this on one my favorite blogs and I fell in love with it. Not because I get to read most of the articles but because this piece is truly loving and inspirational.I hope you get to love it the way I do. Creativity is inspiration. We are able to do, speak, write and even, achieve much of our heart desires through inspiration. And most importantly, we all have ways by which we can stir up our creativity to reveal our innermost beings/parts. Don't stop your creativity when it wants to flow and always live by inspiration. A piece I penned recently because of inspiration: Angel:by Isaac Parbey My mama told me once, That I was a fool. I did not believe, but I thought that was cruel. I had you by my side, I thought you were good. I didn't know you were a lie, Sucking on my blood. I could have walked out long ago Be done with you from the start Hook After all these years, I realize she was true I've put up with you, Now...

Would apologise to my beloved readers about this inspirational thoughts today but i felt it is highly needed. In a world trying to break you, one needs to raise his or her spirit up. I want to share this truth with you. I know many of us as healers, light workers, and solopreneurs get told that we need to be, "more realistic," and that we have to let go of the "woo-woo" and get with the program already. Well, I want to leave you with this inspiration to keep in mind. You're here for a purpose and especially if others can't see that, you should see it. There will be people who will try to dim your light and pull you back down to "earth." Where "real shit" is happening. Sometimes you might even catch yourself falling out of your own orbit, from the emotional weight that they carry and are throwing at you. See past their illusion. For some people it is too painful to see shining lights in the sky, when their world is crumbling, ...

One topic flowing through my mind is this imaginary world known as "my comfort zone" There's a ton of talk about stepping outside your comfort zone and pursuing your dreams. But what happens if we don't do that? What happens if we allow fear, worry, current reality, and ego to make our decisions? What does stepping back into your comfort zone look like? While it looks different for everybody. We all know how it feels. It feels stale. It feels old. It isn't exactly how you picture your life to look. You'll start to agree with those who put down your original plan to step outside of the comfort zone. Maybe, even get along with everyone better. Your life isn't the topic of conversation anymore. In fact, nobody's bugging you about your decisions because you're not doing anything risky. Each day is a repeat of the day before, and the week before. You're not happy with yourself, and you're starting to develop regrets. But I gue...

Hi. Am a lover of animals and birds. Mostly anything with wings.So is only fair i use one of my favorite winged creature. Have you ever wondered what goes through the mind of a butterfly as she pushes herself out of the cocoon? There's definitely a choice she has to make: To stay in the cocoon or to burst herself outwards. If she decides to stay, she will surely die. Her cocoon can't feed her anymore. But a dilemma pops up, her cocoon is all she knows. She's felt the cocoon, seen the cocoon, been fed by the cocoon. And though she isn't satisfied with living in the cocoon anymore, she can't fully trust anything else. Outside the cocoon is a mystery, and she can't see what's out there. All she has is the instinctual call to leave for that new sacred space. The truth is, if she pushes through, past the comfort of the cocoon, she'll find a world that was made for her. Filled with flowers, abundance, and new heights for her to fly up into. It ...

Relationship Goals This is a short poem written to the very first girl that stole my heart.Never the type to believe in love. Always felt it belonged to the married couples, the grown ups. Love has no place for the youth. The exact words I told myself. Not until I meant Chiamaka. A goddess in human form and in a teenager's body. Feelings never felt before nor could I ever explain ran through my spine accompanied with feverishly sensations. What could be wrong??..Was I coming down with something or was it the general expression of developing cold feets I have heard a thousand times. I may not have the answers . But this am clearly sure of. No one has ever made me feel this way. Keeping me on edge with every turn and twist of your seductive body. I hope this short poetry could make you notice me and bring me out of my total awkwardness. People speak of fate and meeting people of chance Finding of soul mates and love at first glance. Alignment of planets Shoo...

A Bleeding Soul Had a friend (a girl to be specific). Miss Oyoma.The smartest one in the bunch.Could never beat her when it comes to academics, charity and humility. what didn't I try.Let me rephrase. What didn't we all try. She taught me everything I know and how to be competitive. Fight for your place in life she would say but  remember is not a crime if you don't make it in your first try. Do hold this very words dearly "Never give up in life" I wish those were the last words you said to me. No, I wish you never said a last word to me. That way I could get to keep you around. Sit by your feet and bath in your knowledge. But you had to go. Leave me stranded in a world filled with questions. The least I could do is pick myself up by my bootstraps and walk in your shadows hoping one day I get to stand tall, shoulders held high and tell the world you made me this man I am today. I believe that day is today. You deserve this tears  miss. How do ...

My Difficult Ordeal Experience Let me start by saying I have not the slightest clue of how I became this "monster" been tagged on the head by the public. I have always loved the female world. The beauty flowing through the very core of their veins. Every figure being carefully crafted by a skilled craftsman. But like any other individual, the skeletons in my cupboard are yearning for expression. Being part of a family of seven(7) with a majority of six(6) girls, I have had little glimpses of the female world. Though hard to decipher makes it worthwhile to watch every move and tantrums been thrown. Perceive every step and choices made. Every struggle felt a thousand times harder. This I found out has totally affected my structure. My very being and my thinking. My first encounter happened with Sandra the first girl I had a crush on.Totally beautiful beyond words, lips aligned to perfection. Being in a house filled with girls, fate as twisted as she is granted...

"I am losing precious days. I am degenerating into a machine for making money. I am learning nothing in this trivial world of men. I must break away and get out into the mountains to learn the news."                                                                    "John Muir" Every now and then a word creeps into our language and begins to replicate like a fungus, invading every available corner of our consciousness. The word takes on a life of its own and begins to infect our conversations and weaken our powers. One such word is wellness. The word itself can be traced back to the 1950's. In the beginning, it was proposed as a push-back against Western medicine and its mechanical approach to the human body. Critics declared that "health is more than the absence of disease" and advanced a new concept that was sup...

Life is short, the Art is long, opportunity fleeting, experience delusive, judgment difficult.                                                              "Hippocrates" In 1983, American psychologist Howard Gardner famously speculated that people have more than one kind of intelligence. In his classic book, Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences, Gardner identified 7 forms of intelligence: musical-rhythmic, visual-spatial, verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, bodily -kinesthetic, interpersonal, and naturalistic. He later suggested that existential and moral intelligence might also make the list. Gardener's theory was interesting in its own right, but it also gives us a...

"The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom."                                                  Isaac Asimov             Wising Up. By this point in the game almost everyone in the Paleo world is familiar with the idea of mismatch (Or, to dress it up in sexy academic language, "the evolutionary discordance hypothesis.") The idea is simple: Our bodies evolved in a wild environment and are deeply wired for natural habitat, natural movement, natural sensation and natural human relationships. But for better and for worse, we now live in a radically different world, an alien environment that challenges our minds, bodies and spirits. As a consequence, our health suffers. Specific solutions to mismatch are diverse and individual, but in a more general sense, what we're...

Success has never been an easy ride. It has it's ups and downs and I must stress on the down part. Every sane being in life wants to be successful. Just one quick nap takes you to wonderland. A land where you get to live your best. Have that mansion, buy the latest things life could only dream to afford. Scanning through the flat plastics called television, one could simply go nuts from all the reality shows being aired. For those really depressed, I would quickly run through three. KUWTK 1. KUWTK : Now for those who still prefers the stone age or basically avoids the monster known as television because of it's rapid increase in stealing your life span by offering your soul watering programmes, this is a reality show with a bunch of girls (sisters-The Kardasians) and one beautiful mother Kris Jenner (Am sorry. I happen to like her) that shows wealth in a new dimension.And I don't mean in a good way. Next on the list is the famous 2.RICH KIDS OF BEVERLY HIL...
