Curses

What are curses?? Why do people who have or rather who claim to have
belief in The Almighty have fears that curses can approach them.
I once read about an Iranian prophet who said that when someone
believes in Ahuramazda(The Lord),darkness can never approach.
In the Bible,(I'll get the verse later) it was also written,The Light
shineth,and the darkness comprehends it not. So why,why do people
think there are curses flying all over the place.
Buddha said that the true self of a human spirit is reflected in the
environment.Look around,we are PIGS in this country.
Yet,three-quarters of the population sleep in churches or
mosques..claiming to be holy. Fortunately,we can never FOOL Our
Creator.
I had to write this post because i watched penelope,a girl curse with
a snout. The snout vanished the instant she said she liked herself.
I don't believe in curses..i'm rambling too much jare..
It usually isn't the curse that causes problems,it's the power you
give the curse,

UNCERTAINTIES

Events occur..
Everyday..
They make us..
Or mar us..
They lead us to decide who is the enemy and who is not.
Before we take decisions,we should be careful that we do not step on
toes so we never need to apologise.
I was insulted.I told someone I love about something I'm passionate about.
I shared my plans for my future.I spoke about the research I had
carried out.All I got in response was "Forget about that.It's a
worthless aspiration".
What gives anyone the right to trample on someone's aspirations??I
believe that channelling one's anger into constructiveness rather than
destructiveness,is the way to go.I've promised myself that I'll make
my dreams become reality.
I'll remind the person when I do.If the person is dead when it comes
through,I'll do something to permanently remind myself that success is
a choice one makes.

Believe in yourself ALWAYS.

Poverty

Why are we so ungrateful??

On my way home yesterday,I was pissed I had to take a bus home just
because I am watching my expenditure,yet,I saw so many people walking.

I was too busy to eat,so my mum bought me a malt drink.It was so
refreshing,yet i drank only half of the bottle because I saw the
caloric content:65kcal per 100ml,and the drink was 330ml.I'm not on a
diet,just conscious,yet,I didn't think about the millions of Lagosians
that'll go hungry because they can't afford food.

On my way home yesterday.I stopped at a stall to buy noodles,and a
little boy came to buy onions.When asked what quantity he wanted,he
said 'N5'.The seller grumbled and said her onions cost from N10,the
any said,''my mummy has only N5''. I shuddered.My first thought was
that this family is so poor,but as of today,I know I'm the poor
person.

This boy,at his young age,was appreciative of the fact that his mother
couldn't afford more.At his age,all i did was ask,and recieve. I've
complained I've had to take buses,yet people walk. I was bothered
about the most inconsequential things when people like this boy will
probably be grateful he can go to school.i promise to try to be more
conscious of my blessings,because they are a lot.

Will you be conscious too??

The Woman I NEVER want to become.

I have been talking to two of my friends,both male and both from
totally different backgrounds.

One is a very well to do entrepreneur,while the other is a highly paid
accountant. Apart from having me in common(as their friend),they both
say they don't want to end up married to a certain kind of woman.

I find that unconsciously, mothers have a way of running their mouths
and assuming their children are like flies on the walk,hence not
taking note of what they are conversing about.

One friend finds it difficult to commit to a woman and even without
realising it,it's because his mother has,all his life,lamented about
how her life was ruined by her husband's early demise(I wonder how he
was to blame for being murdered). My friend is scared of being killed
and ruining a woman's life.

The other listened to his mother disrespect his father over and over
again with her siblings,complaining about how he does not make enough
money. Sadly,she leaves out the fact that her husband has always been
supportive of all her scoin-scoin,and believe me, all our mothers have
an excess of it.

My mother has her issues as well,and sometimes,it scares me.My
neighbour,a very beautiful woman has a crazy husband who keeps trying
to kill himself and sons who took to marijuana to dull their minds
from all the madness,still puts up a bold face.My friend's mum keeps
killing herself because she's afraid her husband will leave her. This
man has never been faithful.Has cheated on her for 35years,but she
keeps taking his crap because she is in the,so she thinks she is
better off.

I NEVER want to be the Woman who discusses my husband with people.I
NEVER the Woman who rehashes the past at the drop of a hat.I NEVER
want to be the Woman who must put up a bold face when i'm dying
inside.I NEVER want to be the ego masseuse.

I just want to be myself always and keep ignoring the madness of the world.

Does all this mean I'm not ready for marriage??

Nigeria is 48

Our beautiful country is 48 years old today.
You know what they say,a FOOL at 40 is a FOOL for life.I hope in the
case of our country,it'll be a FOOL at a hundred is a FOOL for life.
I spent my whole day watching politicians talk about things we all
know they will not do.It amazes me that after 48years,we are still
foolish..
Anyways,all i want is for my blogfam to pray for the politicians that
sha manage to do the things they claim they will.
Big ups most especially to our very our Babatunde Fashola who has
shown that politicians can keep promises they make to the masses..
And of course for making us happy that our taxes are not paid in vain..
Happy independence..
