SAY A LITTLE PRAYER

Not everyone is disciplined enough to say their morning prayer and I am not excluded. Some of us check twitter first thing in the morning, some reach for the refridgerator to grab a bite and some call their heart throbs. We are not trying to condemn the first thing you do when you wake up, but you might want to consider this offer. I'd like to know the number one thig on your morning routine so kindly leave them in the comment box after enjoying this short piece.
********************************************************************************
I woke up on my bed, perspiring like I had been walking on a thread, with memories of the previous day constituting the nightmares that kept flashing through my memory like lightning; grumbling and rumbling from my deep subconscious like thunder. It had not all gone as I quite expeceted after all I had invested. The smile I woke up with didn't waste much time in contorting into a frown as I thought about what the day might be like.
Quickly, I began to flick through the pages of my mental planner to see what lay ahead and concluded that some emotional psyche or 'brainwash' would be needed for a perfect headstart. Then I remembered my creator and wasted no further time in thanking Him for sparing this dear life of mine. I offered thanks for His past and present deeds and in advance for the beautiful things He would do (like he always does). I confided in Him and asked for strength to pull me through the day with all the challenges at bay. Not minding to be an oliver twist, I asked to be a blessing to all the people around me. At the end of my bilateral talks I mouthed a deep-voiced and reassuring AMEN, and that put an end to my doubts and fear.
My day went fabulously well and by the next morning, I didn't wake up worried. That's because I had learnt to say a little prayer.

'BOYFIDENCE'

Image
One of the most incredible things that could happen to a young boy is 'a girl hitting on him', and you will agree with me on that. It swells his ego,gets his confidence muscled up and makes him feel on top of the world. ******************************************************************************************************* It was Wesley's first time of having such experience and it thrilled him beyond what words can tell. His life never remained the same after the event. He had just finished the last class of his first week in the university and joined the great multitude swarming towards the bus stop for a ride home. He was not feeling too good with himself because the last lecturer gave a pop-up test and he screwed up big time. He had been warned against such impromptu assessments but he figured it was too early for any lecturer to give a test. This particular one, a maths professor, was so mean he even told them it would be his greatest joy to see everyone fail. That st...

FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS

Image
Friends are such wonderful people you'd want to keep for a lifetime. They care for you, love you and pamper you with loads of affection. They might not give their life for yours, but would do everything they can to save yours. Too many friends can be too much trouble at times because you'd have to split your loyalty equally among them all and in the process of trying not to offend any, you end up upsetting all. Such a tedious task if you ask me. Everything should be done in moderation as the old advice goes. Yet that doesn't take away any credit from true friends. Let's consider another concept of friendship. Its the kind of package that many of us have either subscribed to or heard tales about. Friends with benefits is an agreement between a guy and a girl that looks like a real relationship but isn't. They both enjoy some certain 'benefits' that should ordinarily be found in a real relationship. Let me shed some light in there for you... There'...

True Feelings

Image
Have you ever compressed your feelings into words and expressed them to whoever​ they were meant for? My guess is YES! We all have sent romantic letters, mails and text messages to our lovers. Though some of my readers might not actually have tried sending a real hand-written letter because everything has gone electronic. Hmmm, electronic love. That sounds like a good topic to write about. So back in my undergrad days, I had two lovebirds living right under my nose. They were such a lovely couple, they got me on my toes and reminded me everytime to get myself entangled in a love nest. The most interesting part of it is that I was appointed as the umpire/referee of their relationship, which means I had to blow the whistle each time one commited a foul. The 'husband' came to me when the 'wife' did something wrong and she did likewise. I had to advise, console, exhort. I loved my job description and I loved them both dearly. One of those confiding days, the ...
