    Close, but not the original.

    I guess my greatest blocking point with writing is my inability to recall striking headlines that come to my mind during the course of my day. Just last week Friday, I had two potential blog topics that came to my mind and my inability to jot them down immediately, caused them to drift off. All my attempts at recalling the topics proved futile. You see for a writer, when you have a topic that comes to mind, and you decide to start writing, it’s like a heightened sense of emotion that puts you in a dreamy state which you can’t…

    Ample doses of happiness

    If peradventure you were to quantify your measure of happiness in this world, what standards would you use? Would it be through your level of success, wealth, acquired possessions, or relationships?  I reflected on this question during the week and after much thought, I had no choice but to settle on the last of all options. Reason being, that one cannot underestimate the value of in-depth friendships and lasting relationships.   A case study of senior citizens at a retirement home revealed that majority of the aged residents longed to have their relations close by. Sadly, their absent relatives seemed to be making…

    Welcome to an enlivening experience.

    Some of you that were on this site during the week when my ‘open-glare, for-all-to-see mistake’ was ongoing, may have thought my site had been hacked. So here’s what happened. I was trying to apply this new theme to my site but the mistake I made was not activating a plugin called “Site under construction” before commencing. Thus, in my bid to choose the right theme, the site to viewers kept changing in-between themes. I’m sure you get the picture. Nonetheless, it turned out to be the least of my worries, as customizing the theme came with so many hitches.…

I hope you all are doing good? Now some of you may be wondering why the frequency of my posts have become a bit irregular. My answer to this is that I’ve been doing some writing.In actual fact, I have written some scripts but have been unable to go forward with them especially as regards publishing. Yes! this is the project I explained…

    The inner weight of a man.

    “God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him”. Acts 10v34-35 So I decided to continue blogging about different issues as I deem fit because as I buttressed last week, it helps me to keep happy.By now, you all understand that I tend to think a bit, thus using some of my thoughts as a forum for discussion, may not be such a bad idea. I know you’d want to know why I started my post today with the above passage, it stems from a situation that occurred…

    Ever fading lines of success.

    Whilst discussing with a friend during the week, I voiced my frustration on two distinct situations which tend to be ingrained in our society. You know when an individual is moving up the ladder of success, they may have followers whom they tend to view with so much regard at the onset because they constantly patronize their business. Unknown to them that these contacts in turn share positive feedback with other individuals thereby causing their enterprise to grow. With time the proprietor would have a rich network of customers and could attain popularity in society.However, you sometimes see in such…
