Make Your Life A Blessing (Friendships)


Make your life a blessing, meet people and make them better,and if for any reason you have to  leave people, then leave them better than you met them. Use all that's been given you to make the world and not just your world a better place.

Sometimes friendships pick us and not us really picking our friends, you meet few people in  your lifetime that you like,trust or love genuinely and remain grateful that your life parts crossed, even as you continue to look forward to what would be in that friendship.

You are not called to everyone that's my basic understanding , but to those you have been called to and even those you have not been called to,let your life still be a blessing.


I just watched live Mark Zuckerberg, make the commencement speech 25May 2017 at Harvard University ,its shockingly inspiring, how one man's mind can phantom changing the world  by always having a higher sense of purpose that goes beyond self. That to me is gospel,a believe beyond fear or failure, stripping them both of their powers over you and using your humanity for good.

That's why a diminished sense of self centeredness is a strong  attractions for me in human relationships, because in this case like attracts like, unlike magnetic attraction -where like pole repels.

I always urge people if you find yourself in a space,group etc never be part of that "crabs in a barrel" attitude- never pull people down to get on top or past them but seek to build up people ,for in life everything rises or falls on relationships.

As for me, my friends may be few, but I like my friendships. I want to believe I chose to trust my friends,and I try to be committed to my friends, if I do this 100% for selfless or unselfish reasons every single time,well  that I am not so sure of but this much I know with all certainty, that whatever I do in friendship, I do for good.
That being said, I also know that humans will be humans for as they say,  knowing the purpose of something helps creates true happiness, so likewise when the purpose of anything including good,honest,open, friendships/relationships is not understood, abuse is inevitable.

Prayer!

"may the sources of  all strength who's  blessed the one before us, help us find the courage to make our lives a blessing"

2023 into 2024 God's Goodness

2023 it is ending and Thank God, it's NOT the End. Am grateful for the year, goods immeasurable grace and mercies on me. Am trying to reminisce 2023 in my mind's eye as far back as I can possibly remember.  I started the year slowly focused and knowing the things I needed to get done at least for the first quarter. In hindsight now I can say it all worked out really well, at least until it all went crazy.  The national elections came, and I fought, I voted and hoped for a better government to take over at the national level, yet it was stolen right before our very eyes both at the state and national levels.  On a very deep level this crushed hope, that flicker of hope that Nigeria as a country would turn a corner for good this time. Unfortunately not only that the elections was  stolen but it was done in the most brazen, crude and evil manner.  Every institution of state was and is now captured by a thieving political establishment.  It's taken some time bu...

Grateful Reflections

( With Dr Bola Afolabi, Current CIPS President) On the 28 February 2006, I started a tread called Logistics/Supply Chain Management on one of the most popular webforum in Nigeria called Nairaland. Follow link to view postings on this tread http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-7497.0.html My aim basically was to use the opportunity an online forum can offer, to interact, share and gain ideas, information,network and generally increase awareness of the Procurement, Logistics and Supply chain management profession. This act of sharing my passion for the profession online has over the years sparked off series of positive and constructive events in my career quest, some of which I have reflected upon in the text below. Although my initial undergraduate study and immediate post study working experience were all related to engineering, I soon fall in love with the logistics and SCM profession when in March of 2005 I gained my 1st substantive Job with Integrated Logistics services Nig...
