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"

Its A Matter of Cash

On the 20th of Jan 2009, i watched on as million and millions of Americans all celebrated one thing HOPE!, and change that lies in horizon, and from my room I wondered will our home land Nigeria ever have something to celebrate about, even if its just change, a change in the right direction. Below is an article written in response to CNN's NIGER DELTA, Planet in Peril,  by a friend of mine,  Comfort Olubo Umaru  a lawyer based in Abuja Nigeria. IT’S A MATTER OF CASH. by  Comfort Olubo Umaru As an avid reader, a former resident of the area and concerned citizen, it would be remiss of me not to start any discussion on the Nigerian Niger Delta with one name. Kenule Saro Wiwa. As a child my favorite TV show was Bassey and Co. This was a screen adaptation of plays written by Ken Saro Wiwa. It was about a wise cracking young man called Bassey and his friend Alale and their varied antics. The show was all about their varied attempts to ev...

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...

Power of Social Media

So we approaching the last weeks in July 2015, am setting up and trying to know what it feels like working from my new office space within the GRA ( government reserved area) of the city of Port Harcourt, Rivers State Nigeria. A key question for me is, how will I sort out my lunch daily? because it seems like getting lunch is going to be a challenge. As far as I know there are no eateries offering food delivery service in GRA Port Harcourt, unlike in Lagos my office is located in the hub of business Victoria island where its common place to find a range of eateries, pizza joint etc, all offering delivery services. Thank God for google I decided to do quick search online and voilà,! I found Chicken Republic in Port Harcourt. They now offer delivery to some locations in the city and they cover the GRA where my office in Port Harcourt is located. I placed a call to what seems like a central line for all Chicken Republic orders, the customer service center staffs was nice and well...
