FOR YOUR MIND - AS YOU ARE

 Top of the moment, folks! The piece below which I cannot attribute to anyone really got me going. Probably partly due to the fact I can recall many times I have fallen in love (albeit short-term) with those little beings. So much to internalise here folks. Read through and ensure to feed your mind right always!


I was on a Keke yesterday to buy auto spare parts at uwelu.  A woman with three kids hopped in. Of course she is paying for a seat. I volunteered to carry one of the kids immediately. You would know they are poor. The kid stepped on me. She didn't even take note. Hahahahahaha. She just relaxed on me. Playing with my hand. Now I was the one who felt so loved. I actually wanted to keep the kid close to me. Suddenly they had to set down. As she was leaving the little girl gave me this loving look like, ' Hey Uncle, hope it was worth it'..

She never took note of my stained shoes and I didn't even bother. I watched the woman carry her armies with her and all of a sudden I felt alone like the little girl shouldn't have gone. Then I was just pondering over the scenario when the Lord spoke to my heart... He said.. 'Did you notice you valued the embrace of the little child above the stain on your shoes that you were not thinking about it?' I said, Yes. He said again... 'Did you also notice you didn't want her to leave?". I said, 'Yes'.. He then continued.. 'That is how I see My children. I place them above their errors and mistakes. Their mistakes don't change how I see them, what I will do for them and how I relate with them. I long for their fellowship. The same way you didn't want her to leave because you loved the closeness, it is the same way I want to hold you close all day and keep whispering in your ears My unconditional love for you. One look from My children sends sparks into My heart that I can't restrain from lavishing their faces with kisses.

But religion has lied to them telling them I'm angry at their mistakes. I am not an angry God. I am LOVE. I love the company of My children more than their efforts to please Me.' These words struck my heart. I looked at my shoes, hahahahahaha, and wiped them. 'That is how I wipe your mess without calling your attention to it..' He said.. That scenario made my day.

Beloved, GOD IS NOT ANGRY WITH YOU. HE IS THRILLED WITH YOUR COMPANY!

GRIT....

Hallo People! Has it ever occurred to you that one major challenge we all face is acting on our decision to confront our challenges. We all know one or two things to do to begin to shift the ground on our challenges but the fire douses and the passion ebbs some few moments after the burning passion that initially spurred us to pursue that redemption we so need.  The seeming imbroglio so lightly mentioned above is what prompted my sharing the piece below with y'all. I hope we all read, access the links shared therein and get our groove on to doing that expedient thing we just have been putting off all this while. Enjoy! Grit: A Complete Guide on Being Mentally Tough What is Grit? Let's define grit. Grit is the perseverance and passion to achieve long–term goals. Sometimes you will hear grit referred to as mental toughness. Angela Duckworth, a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, suggests that grit is a strong predictor of success and ability

Whats in a Kiss?

Just this last weekend, I was just strolling by one of the residential streets that leads to the main road of the CBD that I usually walk to clear my head or get some fresh lagoon sourced breeze when I heard the excited laughter of a baby boy of about 6 months or thereabout. The cute young being's laughter was punctuated by little kisses on the lips by a beautiful young woman who also had a bright smile on her face. The lucky baby tended to laugh harder with an obvious (even if unconscious and innocent) twinkle after each kiss. The innocence, beauty, and endearment of that poignant episode prompted my making both a physical and mental note to research the mystery of an act so simple but effectively expressive, then share same with y'all. Enjoy the result of my findings below: The first literary evidence for kissing dates back 3,500 years to India’s Vedic Sanskrit texts. No word exists for “kiss” but there’s a reference to lovers “setting mouth to mouth” and a man “drinking

Hello Wonderful People.  It pleasures me greatly to finally step out here to share the many thoughts that have been running around in my head. Thoughts that range from physical to spiritual; terrestrial to celestial; pious to salacious; religion to politics; ordinary to extraordinary; stupid to ingenuously wise, and many more as they blossom. While I have quite an incongruous mix of taste sometime, I am fundamentally eclectic, hence there will always be something for everyone. To them that know me as that level headed, easy-going, see no evil, hear no evil chap; you may be mildly surprised sometimes on this blog. For them that do not know me at all before; I beg you to please be open minded. For the new friends, I will be making from now on, remember I am actually the side of me you are able to unveil. What I promise all however is to be the best side of me, you are able to unveil per time. I promise to be as sincere as ever, even in my many fictions. I promise
