Image
"Turning Away from love out of fear means saying "NO" to life." Anonymous  Breaking up is termination of an intimate relationship. After break ups, a lot of people do not believe in love anymore, they shut the door to thier heart. This is not the best decision because there is someone always better than your Ex, someone who will meet your needs perfectly. Meanwhile, there is a need to do thorough inward check up if you are the one that is faulty. You need to amend your ways so that you can enjoy the next relationship.  Heartbreak hurts no doubt, you know trying to live a new life without the one that you are so much used to is not an easy task at all.

Haha! Why are you talking like this? Ki lo se yin? (What happened to you?) She asked looking at her sister with irritation. I just told you everything that caused the disagreement and you are acting and talking as if I did something bad. “Assuming the children are not sleeping, this is how you will be shouting abi? Can’t we just have a normal conversation without you flaring up?  She asked. Surprised at her countenance. I’m shouting abi? Why won’t I shout when what you are saying is not making sense! Sister mi? Have you forgotten so soon ni? You should understand better even if others don’t! She said as she shook her head in disbelief and paced the room. “Remi…don’t let’s dwell on the past! If we don’t forget the past, we can’t move forward and step into the rest that God promises. You know, the bible says… “Cut me out of the bible scriptures aunty Doyin! Spare me all those things! You really surprised me big time! I came here, knowing that you as my sister will listen...

This Thing Called Love

One of the most abused, misunderstood and wrongly expressed concept in human psychology is love. Many thought they know so much about love but the outcome of their love life shows that they know next-to-nothing about it.  What do you know about love?  See, love is sweet o, but it depends on these three things: first, the type of love you're expressing; second, the kind of person you're in love with; and lastly, your own understanding of love.  Many have said or written a lot of things about love that sounds too good to be true, unbelievable, impracticable but only few could really tell us what love truly is.  Love is a different stroke for different folks, but the truth is that there's one universal truth about love which you'll understand as you read on.  You must have heard that love don't cost a thing, ask God who gave us His only begotten Son; some would even tell you that love doesn't exist, if it doesn't, they won't be alive today. Others would tel...

The drive to the airport would have been smooth if not for the traffic. Would Lagos ever be free from traffic? She thought as she shook her head in annoyance. “Thank God! The children chorused as Kay drove into the airport parking lot, she had called Remi earlier to wait for them at the parking lot, so sighting her was easy. She had grown bigger and her fair skin shone brightly in the sun. What do they call it again? Sun-kissed! She smiled as she got down and waved to her. “Remi took after their mom in stature, skin color and almost everything. She smiled as she wrapped her in a bear hug and collected her bag. It’s so nice to see you again baby sister! It’s been two years now since we saw o if not for Whats App video call. You haven’t changed a bit. Doyin exclaimed as she looked at her sister all over again, turning her face slightly.  “Stop being so dramatic about everything sis! I missed you too. But please can we get to the car now? I’m tired, hungry and sleepy. “It’...

"Slightly closing her eyes against the daylight that filled the room, she turned to the bedside table and picked her phone. 9a.m! I must have slept soundly o she thought as she placed her hands on her forehead. So much that I didn’t even notice when he stood up from the bed for his Saturday’s morning jogs. She knew she really deserved it if she didn’t want to break down because work had been so busy and demanding, not to talk of her duty as a wife and a mother, plus the stress of living in Lagos. “Thank God for Rhekia, she had been of great help to me. She yawned tiredly as she went on her knees, singing and thanking God for the gift of life. “The shouts of mummy, mommy brought her out of her meditation mood as they barged into the room and jumped on the bed. “Sleepy, sleepy! The sound of her husband’s voice filled the room as he walked up to her and hugged her. I hope you were able to catch enough rest? “Yeah, I did! She smiled tiredly as she looked at her girls; w...
