This is so Interesting, Take A Chair, Sit and Enjoy.

It was October 2010 when I joined a very popular school in my area. The school was well-known, and I was excited to be a part of it. I remember the first day vividly, and I might even have a picture of myself from back then. I’ll check my phone album tomorrow morning and drop it in the comments section. The school had a supervisor, a man from the Auchi tribe in Edo State. He was a close friend of the proprietor, who was unfortunately terminally ill at the time (he has since passed away). The supervisor’s two sons, David and his younger brother, Mark, were both on full scholarship, courtesy of the proprietor. The supervisor’s job was mainly to ensure everything at the school was running smoothly. It was the biggest and most popular school in the area back then, with separate locations for the primary and secondary sections. The supervisor’s wife, who everyone affectionately called Mummy David, was a completely different personality from her husband. She was a lovely soul—fun...

10 Steps to Enjoy Life Again and Break Free from Guilt

-

 I understand how overwhelming and paralyzing guilt can be. Everyone deserves a fulfilling life, and if you’ve been struggling with excessive guilt and can't shake it off, I’m here to help. Here are some effective strategies to help you manage and overcome it. 1. Let Go of Some Control Taking control of everything can lead to excessive guilt when things don’t go as planned. To move past this, relinquish some control. Understand that you can’t dictate every outcome. Like for example If you always take charge of family gatherings and feel guilty when things don’t go perfectly, delegate some tasks to others. Allow them to help with planning and execution. This will reduce your stress and help you realize that not everything is your responsibility. 2. Stop Blaming Yourself If things go wrong, you might instinctively blame yourself. This is common among those who feel guilty. You often find ways to make it your fault, no matter the situation. Take for instance, I...

Who is Responsible for Taking Care of the Children?

-
Image
The responsibility of raising children has always been a topic of discussion, shaped by cultural values, religious beliefs, and modern-day realities. While parenting is ideally a shared duty between both parents, society often influences how responsibilities are divided. This article explores the dynamics of parenting roles in Nigeria and sheds light on how these roles can be balanced for the benefit of the children. Traditional Parenting Roles in Nigeria In many Nigerian households, traditional customs dictate that the father is the primary provider, while the mother takes on the caregiver role. Fathers are expected to work hard to ensure the financial stability of the home, while mothers focus on nurturing and managing the home front. For example, a father might ensure that school fees, clothing, and food are provided, but the mother often becomes the cornerstone of daily interactions, offering emotional support, teaching values, and maintaining discipline. This division of labor was...

How To Decode What Women Want

-
Image
Sometimes, women can be hard to understand, but it’s not as complicated as it seems.  A woman might block you, delete your number, and say she never wants to hear from you again—but deep down, she still hopes you’ll reach out. It’s just how emotions work sometimes. During an argument, it’s best not to fight back with words. Just listen. Let her express herself, and when she’s calm, show her that you still care. A simple hug and reassurance can mean a lot. A woman who loves you might act a little differently. She could block you on social media but still check up on you through a friend’s account. She might seem tough in front of you, but break down in tears when she’s alone. Her heart is soft, and emotions can be confusing. Even if you have a fight and there’s distance between you in bed, she might still be checking to see if you’re facing her. It’s not just about the space; it’s about wanting to feel close again. The key is to understand that women, like everyone else,...

5 Fresh Ways to Keep Your Love Alive

Love is something we all feel, and we show it in different ways. Long ago, people would express love by saying sweet words, doing things to help, giving gifts, spending time together, and holding hands. But now, with our phones and computers, love can be shown in new ways. 1. Saying Sweet Words with Messages In the past, people would say "I love you" face-to-face or write it in a letter. Today, we do this through messages on WhatsApp, Facebook, or Instagram. A simple "Good morning" or "I miss you" in a text message can make someone feel special.  Even sending a heart emoji or a cute sticker can show that you care. But we need to be careful because sometimes, without hearing a voice or seeing a face, messages can be misunderstood. 2. Helping Each Other Through Technology Helping your partner used to mean doing things like cooking, running errands, or fixing something in the house. Now, you can help each other through your...

I'm a Nigerian, and from my experiences and interactions with Nigerian men, I've gathered some insights on what they appreciate in a woman. Here are the key qualities Nigerian men look for: 1. Independence Nigerian men admire a woman who is self-reliant. They respect a woman who can handle herself during tough times without constantly seeking help. For instance, imagine a woman who starts her own small business and manages to keep it running successfully—that’s the kind of independence that impresses them. Question for You: How do you demonstrate your independence in your daily life? 2. Good Manners/Home Training A woman with good manners and proper home training is highly valued. Nigerian men appreciate a woman who respects her elders, comports herself well in public, and avoids unnecessary drama. Picture a scenario where you're at a family gathering, and you gracefully handle a heated discussion without losing your cool—that’s the kind of behavior they admire....
