The Full Story

As you relate with people on daily basis, be rest assured you that not many stories will end the way you want it to. It is not in your place to end stories that are not yours no matter how similar it sounds.

 Your ability to recognize that stories may sound similar but have different endings will save you from the stress of always running to conclusion or living a life of regret after every quick judgement.

So it is the same teenage pregnancy but could have happened under different circumstances.

Same childlessness, but chances are that it is not a product of "university days wayward life."

Same exam failure but not exactly a product of non diligence.

 Before you make judgements, get to know the full story. 

Your kindness extends to being patient to hear the full story (where it began and where it ended) without making inputs or running to conclusion because you think you know how these stories always end.

Resist the urge to end stories that are not yours.

At the end of the story, who knows, silence may even be your most preferred option?

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 ...

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 h...
