CONFORMITY WILL JAIL YOU! O.D.M. Tues 20 Septembe 2016.

A neighbour offered me a lift. I haven't spoken to him before, aside from normal "Nigerian greeting." Na so the guy asked me why, I do not come out to associate with my neighbours, I asked how, he said my mere greeting is not enough that I can go a step further to be asking them how is work? Etc. (Lol I wonder what they talk about, the ladies and gentlemen, all those evening they sit in that shop and I pass by I don't do idle sitting, or idle talking, or gossiping, I don't have time to waste. my surface friendliness should be enough, except we become friends, and I can count my friends, this is because I guard my peace of mind jealously). I asked if I don't associate why he offered a lift nah? He said he wanted me to see the benefit of associating with neighbours. When we were done talking he was surprised. Of course I had a lot to tell him "A paraphrased excerpt" You do not need a lot of friends in your life! You do not need to be popular and gregarious and overly friendly to lead a good life. You can be nice and unnoticed, but If you have an overly friendly nature and you put yourself out there, no problems. Especially if it is working for you. Do not take it easy with those who think they know what you should do with your life. People no matter how you live life, will find a problem with it. Do not let them bother you. You know why? Because Nobody cares if you live or die, nobody askes you how many times you eat a day. People don't care, there are only curious and poke nosers, and fault finders and wants to see how far you may have gone ahead of them(except close ”blood" and friends) so don't care to please them. Lead a life you can defend before God, do as much good as you can and leave the rest before the weight kills you. I will cap it up by taking an instance from an event in Apostle Paul's life, Galatians 1 vs 10-24. Paul only met Peter 3 years after his conversation and he didn't fraternize with any other apostle except that he met James the brother of Jesus. Maybe he didn't need to be known and kiss the asses of other Apostles, He had a different Mission and focus. He was sent to the Gentiles not the Jews. Take full control of your life! ~Do not, I repeat, do not! allow the society dictate the way you choose to live.

LOVING ALL OF YOU!

As a lady,have you ever felt bad because of some physical defect you seem to have? Or someone especially a guy, ever made you feel bad by constantly referring to these so called defect, like magnifying it? It could be talks on how short you are, how dark your skin is, or how fair you are, maybe talks on how 'unsexy' your legs are, it might even be how 'badly tall' you look, for some of us, it may be, how 'small' your back side is, or the size of your boobs, you may just be told outrightly how 'ungood' you look. The list is endless, I could go on and on. All these are sometimes said in the most 'annoying' of ways, and it ends up getting to us, we just find ourselves entering into our shells, getting uncomfortable with ourselves, thereby losing all sense of confidence.
