Dear friends! Welcome back. The feedbacks I got about the last episodes were so amazing. Thank you for taking your time to read, comment and share your thoughts about those topics. It goes a long way. Today, I want to discuss about how to deal with boredom. For many of us, it is something that we experience from time to time. For some, it could be about their job or certain activities that have become a routine and it’s no longer interesting. Boredom also happens among children and young adults because they are so full of energy, and any activity that is downing their spirit or make them less active could be boring for them. This could consequently ensue in children diverting that energy into something else, sometimes dangerous for their wellbeing.  It is important that we as parents understand our children and know how to engage them in the right way so that they will not use that energy for wrong purposes. As adults, when we are bored, we could feel easily tired, weak, frustra...

Hi loves, hope you are doing well? And trust your week has been great. Today, I’ll conclude on the 5 vital lessons I learned in my marriage. Let me quickly mention that the things I discussed are applicable to both men and women. I’m not trying to be gender-biased or focus only on women. I believe marriage is for both men and women, and so they should both enjoy it and make it work.  Meanwhile, it is not by subjecting one person to responsibilities or making the other person feel entitled that will make marriage work. Rather, it’s about sharing love and growing together (which would allow each partner to go to any length to sacrifice for their spouse and make them happy).  Love doesn’t look for who is right or wrong. It is looking for who is willing —willing to give. Because love is about giving. And this takes me to my next point which is forgiveness. Forgiveness is an important quality in marriage. And no marriage can survive without it. It is important because there is no h...

Hello my loves, trust this week has been great for you. Thank God for life and good health. I believe this coming new week will be good for us, and we would have great things to share. I will continue with the vital lessons I've learned in my marriage. I was in a discussion with one of our sisters and she reminded me of something we had discussed sometimes ago. She said  'it worked'. I wondered what was that. Then, she went ahead and told me. She said I told her to do things with her husband, especially things that he loves to do. She said when she did it, she saw results.  Her husband’s attitude changed and he began to love her more than before. She was stunned. She also made the same counsel to other women who were having issues in their marriage. They also had results. They wondered what was so special about that – something could be as simple and easy as a piece of cake, and still giving a lot of results. I found that secret in my marriage long time ago. I realized tha...

This past week has been amazing. Calls and messages flooded my phone. I had to keep my phone charged so that I could receive all the messages and calls. Thank you so much once again for the love and care. Now, I know indeed I’m blessed with God’s people. And how has your week been? Hope it has been great and splendid. Couple of things happened this week that I thought I should share. But then I remember we have a continuation of the 5 lessons I learned in my marriage that I started couple of weeks ago. I will definitely finish that discussion. But today, I quickly want to share something I learned in this past week and also encourage you my dear. I remember the word of God which says ‘ do not fear ’. It was mentioned in the Bible like 365 times. Some people have said that it is for each day of the year, since we have 365 days in a year. God was particular about our health and well-being everyday. I often wondered why God would tell us to not fear when there are so many things to fear a...
