bonding of a father to a child (inspired by yankeenaijababe and leggy) they both talked abt their dad

MY DAD.....a great inspiration, my best friend who was always there for me, someone who loved me even wen i was unknown and unformed. a man who struggled hard to get what life had in stock for him, he always stood for something good even thou no one was standing with him

yes am using past tense because a night came when i saw my friend no more...i remember some things we shared together then... that even my mom used to be very jealous and angry.but then he treated us equally. my dad used to have a long cane bac then that anytym i and my siblings and friends are all in my house jisting,disturbing my dad never waste time in bringing that very long cane....lol...everyone of would start running back and front to look or a way to escape my dads cane...my usual spot was under the bed...that one day he raised up the bed and started laughing and just shaked his head.....

i love gala so much (naija fast food)dat my dad killed a very small rat (he knows i hate rats)and kept it in a gala pack and rapped #10 over it ...thn he called saying "shade come and take gala and use that #10 to buy solo fanta...happy me i took it went into the room during shakara for my siblings ...OMG!!! wen i decided to eat i saw rat ...i screamed they were all wondeing wat hat was ....eventually they saw it and started laughing meanwhile my dad was also laughing in the sitting room.....God i miss those days

But then death came and stool him away...it was a breezy sunday night after chating with him as usual...he asked me to bring him his news paper which i did and all of a sudden h started holding his chest ...have never been scared like dat in my life....i rushed to call my mom and elder ones (am the last born)they rushed him to the hospital....i ran after them with my hands on m head crying so hard....i didnt look @ anybody's face...even the guy i had a crush on was trying to stop me but then i wasnt myself anymore.i wasnt able to catch up with them ...a hour later my dad's corpse was brought home (my siblings told me the doctor wasnt around can you just imagine....i cried myself sick....i became sick for months my mom kept begging me not to die dat she doesnt want to buryanyone again.....then i thought of those i would have left behind...

i miss my dad so much dat every 14th of january holds a possibility of a miracle (always hoping one day he will come back)even as an adult i still look forward to that very day....

my dad took a step to a great beyond at myvery young age......iknow one day every tig will be better in God's own time........

with so much love ....Adieu papa.......

chocolate and plantain gurlz (an interesting perspective of proverbs 31:10-31)

Let me guess you are a little startled at this topic. i also am, please have this chocolate bar (bounty is my favorite) and plantain . feel free to eat any of them as you read on.

One day, while musing about the different kind of females i had met, i had an epiphany. i discovered that they could be classified into two broad categories: chocolate and plantain. you may be thinking to yourself, "BIG DEAL! NA TODAY? WHO NO KNOW? abeg chocolate girls are all out, use cover-up, bla bla bla ...,and plantain girls are the exact opposite. Infact most "SU" girls are plantain girls" well you are not entirely correct, most plaintain girls dress well and there are scores of chocolate girls in the church. yes, i said church ....so wat is my point.


Before i go on i want to point out dat this is not abt marriage (wat do i know abt marriage). i have shared these thought with couple of my friends and they think my point is amusing....... truthfully our biblical text may not fit exactly since it talks abt wife, however it will give us insight abt a type of females........let's find out ......


now chocolate girls........dignity is a sense of your own importance and value. from afar the chocolate girls looks very confident..hmm get closer and you will see her low self worth. she kips working on the outside to get approval. she is a compulsive user of cover-up (excessive make-up) goes to those expensive outings almost everytime, must be at celebritygatherings, must have expensive outgoing cell phones she will never use ( why buy an iphone and use it to make just calls and send sms?) tries to look so much like video girls and then wonder why her bride price is negotiated, buys almost everything she sees on fashion tv and never uses the toilet.

If she has the financial base to maintain this lifestyl, hmm thanks to daddy(ies) and bobos, she will get haughty and live in the illusion that she is of a class .....the moment she is stripped of her glamorous artificial wraper, her weak and malleable core is exposed......


for plantain gurls hmmm........do you know the funny thing is that plantain girls has many of the material things the chocolate girl has, along with a haelthy high self esteem. some day she may use make-up (many do) dress gorgeously and on the oda days, maybe plait her hair, wear plain clothing and eat at white house (an amala joint at sabo) after shoping at tejuosho market. she is very natural and happy with herself.......infact let me stop here so you can imagine a little .....ahh ahh she is just to much.........to be continued.............(fisayo)

MIS-UNDERSTANDING

Alot of things kip runing thru my mind....yesterday was really a bad day.The atmosphere was not encouraging at all,I and my friends were eating together and also talking which we were actually disturbing someone dat was praying....our bad
But then my bff decieded to get on my nerves again..it was to the extreme.i guess he nided someone to tell him the truth which i guess i did sha...no matter how it turned out to be.

i was really mad at him for even thinking he could take me for granted..the whole issue was dat..... infact it all started wen i used a phrase for him saying" dont use anoda man's time to work"....wait wait it's not wat u think....he actually nided to hear dat 4rm me...sincerely. he behave like a girl ...girlz kip things in there mind 4 eva.....
he went to get sometin at the market which i had to even call him up if he got it ..........Good girl like me.....but then he still thinks he is smart but am sorry to tell you guyz he is not

letter dat day he took sometin he was not supposed to take away and i was just trying to tell himhe cant ....abeg on see me see oh ...he just bursted out...lik say sometin bite am....i shock.....i gave it back to him ......people around knw i was not at fault.... i gave it back to him....mcshweeee

but then i went for prayers and asked God for forgiveness knowing fully well i was also at fault..to have returned those wordsi thot God's forgiveness wont be complete if i dont walk up to him......i kept aside my pride.....i did and he just said he was sorry too.. i did care if he meant it or not but i hv don my own part...well snd all good


wat am i driving at.......quarelling destroys alot of things around us even without us knowing....i alwayz try not to quarel with him...but he is just a difficult person to deal with at least to some extent i know him....dats why i tend to ignore his bad side.......
wen you realize that people treat you according to how they see themselves rather than how you are, you're less likely to be affected by their behaviour how do i really cope wit him......


i nid advise.......friends.......

Thanking God......

you woke up this morning....not even to say Good morning prayer,i stood and watched the first thing you did was to pick up your to check if you had any missed call...den you turned on the television, i waited hoping that after TV you would say tnk you but you didnt even the food you ate "no thank you all the same"....you were in a haste to go out and gist with your friends
u came back home and hurried for food again and went to bed........neva thinking you came home without accident and still Angels dat follows you everywhere were reconciling for you.

Remembering the blood dat was shed for your sake to bring you bac home to thy father.there was no way you could come home without the man on the cross.....pause think abt it... it was a praise picture see if you can do dat.....it was not just a cross nor just a man, not even a murderer ,liar or a thief .....guess wat it was an INNOCENT MAN.

you see why you should be thankful to thy father,you eat three meals in your house not in the hospital and still you are not grateful....you sleep everyday and wake up safely, anything could hv happened but because of the blood shed and who is interceding at my right hand for you.....
I am the lord that sitted up the circle of the earth ......i hv forgiven you......sayz the LORD......
am also guilty of that sometyms i wake up without tnkin God........but He is still merciful.....let God help us

if you look good or feel good ...it shows on the outside...boyz reckon that the sexiest girls are the ones who alwayz look like they're having a great time........so dont ever stress your look ...just smile.

LAID BACK:
Boys like girls to look natural, so dont cake on the slap...if you know what i mean and definitely dont dress like Christina Aguilera or madonna clone.......

dont strees about your outfit/hairstyle/ body.... cos boyz love girls who are comfortable with their looks..... a positive attitude gets desame in return.........
