Have you ever noticed the worst way to miss someone, is when they are right beside you and yet you can never touch them? When the moment you can’t feel them under your fingertips, you miss them.
Have you ever wondered which hurts the most:
Saying something and wishing you hadn’t,
or saying nothing and wishing you had?
I guess the most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of because words diminish them. Words shrink things that seemed timeless when they were in your head, to no more than living size when they were brought out.
Don’t be afraid to tell someone you love them.
If you do, they might break your heart…
but if you don’t you might break theirs.
Have you ever decided not to become a couple, because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with the person? Your heart decides who it likes and who it doesn’t. Not people.
Don’t ever let someone tell you that you don’t love someone, when you really do. Don’t let people tell you that the person you love isn’t right for you. People like that don’t want you to be happy.
You can’t tell your heart what to do.
It dose it on its own…When you least suspect it or even when you don’t want to.
Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had? But the other person was too afraid to let you? Too many of us stay walled up because we are because we are too afraid to care too much.
For fear that the other person does not care as mush, or at all.
Have you ever loved someone and they had absolutely no idea what so ever? Or fell for your best friend in the whole entire world, and then sat and watched them love someone else?
Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle?
Or maybe because of what people would say?
We tell lies when we are afraid…Afraid of what we don’t know, afraid of what others might think, afraid of what might be found out about us.
But every time we tell a lie…
the thing we fear becomes stronger.
Life is all about risks and it requires you jump. Don’t be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have, or should have done.
No one waits forever….

Paradox of our Age..............
Today we have bigger houses yet smaller families
More convenience, but less time
We have more degrees, but less common sense
More knowledge, but less judgment
We have more experts, but more problems
More medicine, but less good health
We spend too recklessly
Laugh too little
Drive too fast
Get too angry too quickly
Stay up too late
Read too little
Watch TV too much
And are less considerate
We have multiplied our possessions, but have reduced our values
We talk too much, love too little and lie too often
We have learned how to make a living, but not a life
We have added years to life, but not life to years
We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers
Wider roads, but narrower viewpoints
We spend more, but have less
We buy more, yet enjoy it less
We have been all the way to the moon and back
But have trouble crossing the road to meet our neighbours.
We've conquered our outer space, But not our inner space
We've split the atom
But not our prejudice
We write more, learn less, plan more, but accomplish less
We have learned to rush, but not to wait,
We have higher incomes , but lower morals
We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies
But have less personal communication
We are long on quantity,
But less in quality
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion
Tall men and short character
More leisure but less fun - more kinds of food - but less nutrition
Steep profits but shallow relationships.
Two incomes - but more divorce
nicer houses - but broken homes
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one-night stands, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the show window,
and nothing in the stockroom.
Its time we wake up and see the truth about life,End time is Near,am not Preaching here but saying the truth about Life,lets use dis time to check ourselves,wat wuld be our Faith?wat legacy wuld we ever be remembered for?Am Just Saying

Lessons of life
I've learned a lot. I've learned that everything does happen for a reason. I've learned that everyone I've met has helped me to grow & learn in some way, whether they've been there as support or to make my life a living hell; it still helped me learn. I've learned to just accept the things that are given to me in life & not question things too much. I've learned not to take things too seriously because it just stresses a person out too much. I've learned to accept certain things, suck it up, kept my head up, & continued on with life as if nothing happened, like it didn't bother me at all. I learned that I had to change that sentence because if you pretend that nothing happened, you will never learn from your mistakes. I've learned that you have to make mistakes in order to learn from them. I've learned that you can't depend on anyone else but yourself, so in the end all you really have is yourself. I know that whatever doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger.
In the End its going to be fine
Sometimes we see things in colour,
but at times they appear in black & white,
sometimes we succumb to the darkness,
but we return to bathe in the light,
sometimes we do things considered wrong,
even though we know what's right,
sometimes we crumble in weakness,
but the time comes to unleash our might,
sometimes we cower in fear,
but deep inside we're brave enough to fight,
most of the time we're very perceptive,
other times we lose sight,
sometimes our judgments are cloudy,
but mostly they're clear and bright,
sometimes we're cruel for no reason,
but most of the time,we know how to be polite,
sometimes we think we're not good enough,
but our presence alone would suffice,
sometimes we lose ourselves in guilt,
other times we enjoy the rewards with great delight,
things might happen tomorrow,
or they might happen tonight,
but if you hold your head up high and have faith,
I guarantee you,everything is going to be all right .

Playing with my mind??
I’m at that point of my life when nothing seems to be the way it supposed to be.
Everything’s turned upside down.
I feel no safety.
So many sleepless nights, so many rainy days, so many dark thoughts.
So many people who say they want to help me, but it seems like no one understands.
They say they do, but they don’t.
So many people around me, but I still feel lonely.
They say they love me, but the most of the time I don’t feel loved.
I feel tired.
When did things went wrong?
I feel like yesterday everything was so perfect, I was happy and I had no worries.
And now it seems like everything has turned into ash.
Where did this change came from?
Is it me?
Or is it just life, who wants to play with my mind?

Be cA rEfULl.....................
When one plays games in a relationship someone always looses! you might think you have the upper hand & think that its ok to hurt someone & play mind games..but while you are playing your so called "game" you may find out that when you are done & ready to "play nice" the other player quit a long time ago!!.. you were just too busy playing & too blind to see it..life comes with no guarantees..no time outs & sometimes no second chances...Life isnt about finding yourself, its about creating yourself.

Love is you
Love isn't always perfect. It isn't a fairytale or a storybook. And it doesn't always come easy. Love is overcoming obstacles, facing challenges, fighting to be together, holding on & never letting go. It is a short word, easy to spell, difficult to define, & impossible to live without. Love is work, but most of all, Love is realizing that every hour, every minute, & every second was worth it because you did it together.Love is simply You.
TRYING SOMETHING NEW :))))
Everybody reaches a point in their life where they realize they're not who they thought they were, and everything they swore they'd never become, they've already became. This year is when all of that happened to me. I changed so much from last year, but you know what, I'm glad I did. I don't take things for granted because I've learned from my mistakes. I'm grateful for everyone and everything that's ever happened to me in my life. People can surprise you. The one's you think you know best, are the one's who you truly don't know at all. The truth is, we all only care about ourselves and are intentions, We say we don't, but we all only have our best interests at heart. I wish we weren't like that. I wish the world would be different & people wouldn't be so selfish. But that's too much to ask, isn't it? Everybody will let you down sometime, I guarantee it. You can't go through life thinking everybody cares about your every little problem, some of us do, but honestly, most of us don't. People lie. People cheat. People steal. That's life. You can't hold grudges against someone if they've done one thing against you that you don't necessarily like. Well guess what? You've done the exact same thing a million times too. I don't really care about drama, it's so freaking Sad. I laugh at it. What's the point? Seriously, you think that you'll really care about a microscopic problem you've had in Secondary school or University 30 years from now? I doubt it. It won't even affect you. Maybe broken friendships, but that's it. I've learned that the people you hang out with can really affect you. You might think that you don't care what people think about you, but the truth is, everybody cares. Even if they may not know it. If nobody cared then no one would wear make-up or buy expensive clothes or anything. Whoever you spend your time with will gradually change you, for the good or for the better, into the person you're going to be. I think it's sad how people do drugs, smoke, and drink just to fit in. Where's that going to get you? It might make you feel good in the moment but think about your life down the road, you could have a serious addiction, and you'll probably die at an early age. I want to live a life that I'm proud of. I want to do everything I've ever dreamed of. This Year I'm doing whatever I want, and I'm not gonna regret it. A life that hasn't been lived isn't a life at all. You have to take risks. I promise you,
it'll be worth it.
it'll be worth it.

WHO AM I????.....
I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half of the things you do you might just as well turn over to me and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed – you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you want something done and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am servant of all great men; alas of all failures as well. Those who are great, I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine; though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a man. You may run me for profit or run me for ruin – it makes no difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me and I will place the world at your feet.
Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am habit!

Exercise matters...................
Dear Friends,
A steamy sex session can be comparable to spending time in the gym; it does provide a degree of modest exercise which can change your life and the direction of your relationship.
Sex, can lower the blood pressure over time, but for this to happen, it must be done vigorously, sex also increases the body’s "happy" hormones such as dopamine and cortisol, and it counteracts depression, improves energy and improves the participants mood.
Studies have shown that sex is known to relieve headaches and sinus pressure since it increases blood flow in the head.
Ian Kerner, Ph.D., a certified clinical sexologist, said: "People who have healthy sex lives are likely to have healthier lives overall. People, who have sex more often are more likely to go to the gym, eat healthy and take care of themselves.”

what he hears when you say........
Did You Know:
typically a) dresses well, b) exercises often, and c) is confident about her body and what it's good for. And
if she's proud of her figure no matter what shape or size, that makes men take notice, as well.

Featured Topic: What He Hears When You Say....
You Say - "Let’s Talk…" -------> What He Hears - “You’re in Trouble”What would work better? If you have something you need to say or confront him with, say this instead, “I’m
having a problem...” When he asks for more information, tell him the specific issue. Men naturally like to
solve problems, and this will engage him initially without him becoming instantly defensive.
When You Say, "Does this make me look fat?" -----> What He Hears - “It’s a yes or no question that I
can’t win”
What would work better? Don’t ask Yes or No questions. It sounds too much like an attorney, not the woman
he loves. Think about it from his perspective. If you do really look fat in an outfit he’s not going to tell
you, unless he’s mad. Save this question for your girlfriend, sister or mother. They’ll give you an honest
opinion that he can’t.
When you say, "I love you." -----> What He Hears – “I love you, and want to hear you tell me you
love me too.”
What would work better? Walk up to him and put your head on his shoulder……and just keep it there. He may
say “What’s up” and “Anything wrong,” but don’t move. Feeling you that close without you saying anything will
get him to start talking to you, if you will just wait a few minutes.

25...woooWW!!!I
I must say i enjoyed being 24 and still enjoying it. But, Alas! I turn 25 in precisely 2 months, 5 days and im scared. Not sure if im the only one feeling this way but if you are.... i will like to know how you are coping and if you know what im talking about, please tell me how you coped.
Don't get me wrong: not that i'm not happy with what i've achieved... Frankly i've done quite well and im over the moon. I just feel... Wow 25? That's big. I'm no longer going to be in the 19-24 box, it's now 25 and above... SCARY!!
I felt the same way when i clocked 20. It felt to big, just to heavy to say,so i kept saying i'm twenteen. Anyway,i've decided i'm going to leave my age as 24,even when i turn 25... I'm still 24.. Ok,ok... Just joking. Im going to live life,achieve, and enjoy every moment. I think we should we should all do.

Do you pray every day?
by Katherine Kehler
We laugh because we realize that prayer is much more than asking for our needs. But how often do we go a whole day or at least part of a day without even greeting or acknowledging our Master.
This negligence hit home to me when we were in Nigeria a few years ago. We had two wonderful weeks of ministry. We would have to pray many times a day because there were so many obstacles every day and God answered our prayers over and over again. We experienced so many miracles.
Then it was time to go home. Early in the morning, we headed for Jos airport. After the usual waiting period and checking and rechecking of our documents, we finally boarded and had an uneventful trip to Lagos. We would be spending the day there before flying home.
It was almost noon when we checked into the hotel at Lagos and as I was standing in the hotel lobby waiting for my husband when I realized with consternation that I had not even greeted my Lord yet. Silently I talked to Him, apologized for my neglect. Thankful that even though I had ignored Him, He was still with me and was waiting for me.
Later, I wondered how long we would tag along with a friend or relative if that person would not even acknowledge our presence or talk to us?
How often do you talk to God?
You may find Talking to God helpful in your prayer life.

Lord Jesus, I am so thankful that you are always faithful to us, that you never rude, you never ignore us or neglect us. I pray that your Spirit would develop a longing within us for your companionship so that we would communicate with you moment by moment. That we would treat you like we want to be treated. Amen.

“If we are faithless (do not believe and are untrue to Him), He remains true, (faithful to His Word and righteous character), for He cannot deny Himself”
2 Timothy 2:14
Two little girls were playing dress up in their Gramma’s attic. They were playing pretend church. The younger girl asked the other, “Jane, do you pray every day?” The knowledgeable older child answered, “No, of course not. Some days I don’t need anything.”2 Timothy 2:14

DONE KISSING THE FROGS!!!!
DONE KISSING THE FROGS!!!!
You know how the saying goes "you have to kiss a few frogs before meeting your Prince".
I must say, i have sure kissed a few frogs that i feel enough is enough... I have now decided to wait for my Prince.
Ladies if you feel me say a BIG AMEN to that.......
It hit me one day when i asked myself how many frogs will i kiss before i meet Mr right??? I realised if i don't stop now, i will become Mrs Frog myself..
Ugly on the inside and outside. I realised that all these time i had been kissing frog, i wasn't as happy as iam right now. Don't get me wrong, not that i didn't have fun whilst in the froggy relationship some things just didn't feel right. I learnt that if i am not happy within myself, no man can make me happier.
You need to discover that happiness yourself and then the rest will follow....
I must say, it's not that easy being alone, but i had to take time out to discover myself, to know my value, to know what i want also to know what i want in a man.
I'm 25 and single.. But i must tell you am single and loving every moment right now. And i can't begin to tell you how happy i'm (and it's because i found myself and i also know what i want).
Some people think i'm weird when i tell them I'm not in a hurry to get married. I tell them there's no point rushing into marriage and then remain miserable for the rest of your life.
I believe my Prince Charming will come some day...maybe soon(Cos, I'm praying for him where ever he is cos he will be what i want.. He will find me) Even if he's in Australia no matter how far. God said said he that finds a wife, find a good thing, not the other way round. Your Prince will find you, you just need to be patient.
You need to discover yourself first. Know who you are, find your confident and the happiness within, because if you don't find that happiness within you won't be able to share what you haven't got with someone else. You also need to know what you want. You don't want an insanely busy guy that say" oh babes, i was so busy at work, i didn't get a chance to even check my phone" or a guy that isn't supportive. You want a man that will adore you, you want someone that will love you back just as much as you love him... you want to look at your man and say That's my SMILE!!!
Before i forget, no, no no!!! Remember, you can't manage him and his non- challant attitude: Saying to yourself he's going to change. NO HE WILL NOT..
You can kiss that frog as many times as you want... GUESS WHAT??? HE WILL REMAIN THAT FROG!!! AND NOT CHANGE TO BECOME THAT PRINCE YOU WANT.
Ladies, we are priceless, we are Valuable and surely deserve the best... OK??!!! So, please stop kissing frog( they are UGLY)... Just wait for your Prince charming, yours might even come riding on the white horse..lol. In the main time ENJOY BEING SINGLE.... Xxx
Starting point....
Hmmm....well not like i dont have a blog or really crazy about one like that.....Just got bored so bored today at work and decided to write out my feelings, before i run MAdddddd..... Is it just me or it happens to you guys to...whatcha doing is not what you wanna do, or u dont even know whatcha ya wanna do or you know , but you dont know how to go about it... well, WeLcome to my world ..~~ wont say we are confused or dont have plans to what we wanna do...
