How to not lose someone you love

Have you ever hurt someone or gotten in a very bad place with someone you genuinely care about?

Here are some tips that could help you revive your relationship with that person.

1. Be honest with yourself: By being honest, you must accept that you need this person and that you do not want to lose them forever regardless of what may have happened. Forget that they say no man is indispensable, but you know that there are just people you can't afford to lose.
This acceptance helps you take away pride; that feeling that makes you think you don't need them even you know that you do.

2. Get to know the details: Many times, it is not proper to leave certain things unsaid when you hurt people. You should hear from them if they're willing to speak to you and know how your actions directly or indirectly affected them. What this does is that it helps your apology that will come afterwards not to exist in a vacuum. You must know what exactly you're being sorry for in order to help you not to repeat these actions later.

3. You must own your part: This means to take responsibility for your part in whatever caused the problem. Even if you didn't directly cause the problem, you must have somehow contributed through your reactions. That is your part and you should own it. Constantly pushing the blame to another person or circumstance doesn't solve the problem. You must take responsibility for your actions and reactions.

4. Genuinely ask for forgiveness: Now, note the word genuinely. Remember that this person means a lot to you right? So, you must honestly apologize for your wrong doings in order to move on. You must say the words. Don't ask for forgiveness through actions only.

5. Book a happivibe call: Happivibe is a business that offers special calling services. You can reach out to them and book a call for that person and let them know your intention for calling. Trust me, those guys were made for stuff like this and they always deliver. You can reach out to them through their Facebook page, Happivibe Services and get to know more about their services.

6. Be intentional about making this relationship work again: When you are finally forgiven (I say finally because forgiveness may not really come immediately after the apology), you must do all it takes to earn the trust of this person again. It's not gonna be easy but it's something you've got to do.

Hey, don't forget that:
Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul (Proverbs 27:9.)

    1. Yeah. They're not exactly the spirit kind of angels, but they are angels in deeds and we've got to do all we can to see that they remain in our lives.

The Result is in the Repetitions

  Do you have favorite writers or people you truly admire their craft and think they are great today? You should check out their first book, article or the first work they did and compare with what they're doing now.  The first thing you'll discover is that growth and development has happened because they learned on the job and are still learning. This is just the way life works. Nobody starts out perfect. Many people who are great today had blurry pictures of their skills when they started but as they journeyed, the picture kept getting clearer and clearer. If you're still doubting that you have what it takes to start your journey, you should read "Do you have what it takes?" Here's the link: https://favourchimamaka.blogspot.com/2022/01/do-you-have-what-it-takes.html  My cousin once told me that the result is in the repetitions and honestly, this is so true. Consistency is not easy to attain but it holds the key to attaining perfection. These are the words of...

PAIN; AN ENEMY OF FAITH

Do you know it’s easy to believe that God heals the sick and brokenhearted when you are not the sick or the brokenhearted? It is also easy to believe that God makes the blind to see, the deaf to hear and the lame to walk when you are not the blind, the deaf or the lame. Of course, God raises the dead when you are not the dead. But I’ll tell you what, when you become the person directly affected by these situations, you'll understand that there's a level of pain that fights faith with all of its resources and at the end shows if you ever truly believed or not. The truth about pain is that it is an inevitable part of humans’ existence. HOW DOES PAIN FIGHT AGAINST FAITH? 1. It takes away your happiness: The first thing pain does in anyone’s life is make them unhappy. Of course, the universe does not expect you to stay happy if you’ve been fighting cancer for the past few years or have lost your both parents and siblings in a year. So gradually, you’ll discover that nothing makes ...
