Life Choices

-


The rich have an effect on the poor
Making them wanting to apologize for their poverty
And at all times, making them sacrifice future necessities
Just so they could make a brief show of the wealth they believe the poor could only hope to have


Most people want what they see others enjoying;
It doesn’t matter how they get it.
There are ways: the good and the other ways;
But they only think of one way (going extra miles)
You know – the other ways – the bad ones.
Survival instincts comes to mind, right?

Not knowing that is the path I’m avoiding
Cos that path they are taking does a lot of damage than good
That path destroys


They condemn me because I have not done what others are doing
Yet I am in this world
They enjoy life to the fullest while I work my behind out
Trying to make a living the rightful way
I think that’s one of my crimes


When I look back on my life,
I see pains, mistakes and heartaches
But when I look in the mirror,
I see strength, lessons learnt and pride in myself


I have reached a point in my life
Where I feel it is no longer necessary to try to impress anyone
They should learn to accept me for who I am
Not what they want me to be
Or who they want me to be


Life is all about making choices
Always do your best to make the right choices
And learn from the wrong ones

Make Your Tears a Smile

Happiness comes at times to us, but sadness comes unbidden; Remember that amidst the smile, a few tears must drop If at times you feel you want to cry because life is such a trial, Remember that above the clouds, there is a bright blue sky Don’t give up If a friend have sadness written on their face Because trouble round them pile up; Remember that the world would be a better place to them if you smile and assure them that all will be well As you travel on life’s compulsory journey Filled with ups and down Remember that before a gold becomes the gold you so much admire, it went through fire So don’t give up because there is a light at the end of the tunnel When you keep aiming for something and all seems not to work according to your plans Remember that good things of life doesn’t come easily, make your effort worthwhile Make your tear a smile Smile is very cheap amongst the world’s expensive gift And you don’t know whose world you are lighting up with your s...

AIM LIKE THE SPIDER

I was sitting on the 13th floor alone Brooding about life, When a spider caught my attention. It climbed to the 13th floor and kept climbing even with the storm out there. It climbed back up every time it fell. Why does the spider climb so high? Striving to get to the top? Why is it is going that high? It probably thinks it can get a better catch up there; Or maybe it believes it can just keep going and going till it get there. Well, that’s what I chose to believe. The spider did not stop till it got to the final floor. Only a small thinker believes there is a particular height to be attained or a particular height is hard to be attained.  Never stop climbing till you get to the top. When you get to that top you have been aiming for, Aim for something greater than that top and never stop climbing Be like the spider and don’t hesitate to devour whatever challenges that may come your way Don’t give up Maiden Wura

Navigating Uncertainty Without a Timeframe

  The experience of waiting is an essential part of life, whether it's awaiting a response to a job application, anticipating medical test results, or hoping for a decision on a significant life event. The waiting period can feel endless, testing one's patience and resilience. This is what it's like when there's no timeframe for the waiting period. It's like being stuck in a never-ending loop of uncertainty. The main challenge of waiting without a timeframe stems from the uncertainty it creates. As humans, we naturally crave certainty and predictability, so when there's no clear deadline, it goes against our instincts. Waiting without a timeframe can have detrimental effects on mental and emotional well-being. The prolonged uncertainty and lack of closure can take a toll on one's mental health, leading to increased levels of stress, anxiety, hopelessness, frustration and even depression . It becomes increasingly challenging to maintain a positive outlook and...
