Inspire | Truth: Would It Be Wrong?

As false as it sounds, I always tell the truth. Okay, that should be a joke. I am not a saint, and I do lie. And I most times lie, without the difficulty to tell the truth, but the perceived inability of the recipient to handle it well.

[Inspire] Attaining Success With An Awesome Correlation To Orgasm … by Tosin

First of all, note that this isn’t for the prudish ones. But if you are an explorer—not like Dora the explorer—I mean a big time explorer that knows how to ‘get down’, if you know what I mean, then you can go ahead and read this. *winks*

INSPIRE | Reflections Of 2013 And Aspirations For 2014

Yeah today is the last day in the last month of the year and I just want to take a moment to reflect on the year 2013. This New Year Eve moment that we are living in right now reminds me of the same moment in 2012 when 2013 was still all new and no one had an idea of what it will bring with it, we were as ecstatic as we are now then.

[CRAZY ME] GOODBYE TO 2013 | MY 2014 CRAZY RESOLUTIONS

Oh yes! It seemed like I would never write this piece… but fhuck it, everyone already did their version, and I can act the ‘best that is being saved for the last’ and give you this crazy shit in the last hours of the year!

BARBIE TEE’s Diary | Exotic Life And Times Of Ms. WakaWaka — Vol.4

Yawning out loud … I just woke up anyway; my oga is not in the office today, so i have nothing much doing. And body need rest, I can’t kill myself; so I just put my head on my desk and before I knew it, I don doze … then it hit me when I remembered the dream I had — in fact, a bad dream — in the dream, I saw me and Johnny kissing! God forbid, I shall never have anything to do with that houseboy in my life; maybe I am getting my own reward for punishing him, but thank God it was just a dream (CLICK HERE if you want to know what I did to Johnny). Anyways my people, make we put Johnny story for one side — good riddance to bad rubbish — make we talk about the story of today.

[INSPIRE] [POEM] SMILE...

It can melt the stone in your heart

And make you see just the best part

Helps you grab life and feel free

Eases you so much that you can breathe…

It erases pessimism

But increases optimism

Takes you out of your failure

Creates you, a positive future…

[INSPIRE] TRUTH: Would It Be Wrong?

As false as it sounds, I always tell the truth. Okay, that should be a joke. I am not a saint, and I do lie. And I most times lie, without the difficulty to tell the truth, but the perceived inability of the recipient to handle it well.

That girl knows the relationship will most likely crash after two months, but will prefer we go all the way to initiate it (is that to make me appear a liar after two months?). If I had told you straight out that I like you and I will like us to have some great moments together, and we did and parted ways happily after few months, would it be wrong?

Some people find it hard to take the truth, and to those alone, I happily lie. But some people also find it hard to tell the truth, no matter how undue. These are the set of people I will like to ask if they fear losing their mouth at the utterance of simple truth or what?

You lie about where you are coming from, where you are going to, what you ate for breakfast, your origin, your family, your siblings, and even your name — who are you? Telling a simple truth, would it be wrong?

Some people have lied so much that any sound they make is considered as a lie. If that guy should snore, please poke him and you will hear him laugh out loud. How do you lie so much that you don’t even know the truth about yourself any longer?

Be truthful about your relationship status; you’re bound to meet people who will still love to get intimate with you notwithstanding. Giving people the belief that you are having only them on board but finding out later that you lied hurts, even beyond forgiving and forgetting sometimes.

And how do you expect your friend to feel when he or she discovers that you lied about some very important issues? Many things are put at stake and many destinies may change at every false utterance. So please, always try to speak the truth of things — it can never be wrong.

[INSPIRE] What To Change

Time is short. So, if time is short, we should not go wasting any of it. Not a single lovely drop of it.

Successful people are the ones who wring every last ounce of satisfaction and energy out of life. They do that by following a simple rule, which is: 'paying attention to what they have control over in their lives and they simply, ecomomically (time-wise), let go of the rest (the ones they don't have control over).

If you waste your time struggling to change stuffs that are obviously never going to be changed, then life will run pass you and you will miss it.

In other words, dedicate yourself personally to things you can change and areas where you can make a difference then watch life become richer and easier for you.

Make a difference, Change only what You CAN Change.

No Man Can Stop The Sun From Rising or Setting...

It's in you,

Tayo

[INSPIRE] Leaders of Tomorrow

******************************

In 1983, Bamanga Tukur was the Governor of the defunct Gongola State (now Adamawa and Taraba). And 30 years later, he is today the Chairman of the ruling Party, The PDP.

Dr. Bello Halliru was Commissioner in the Old Sokoto State (now Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara). And 33 years after, he is today the Minister of Defence.

Major General David Mark (rtd) was the military Governor of Niger State in 1984. And 28 years later, he is today the Senate President.

Gov. Murtala Nyako was the Governor of Niger State in 1976. And 36 years later, he is today the Governor of Adamawa State.

Ogbonnaya Onu was Governor of Abia State in 1992. 20 years after, he is today the National Chairman of ANPP.

Gov. David Jonah Jang was the Governor of Benue State in 1985, and 27 years after, he is today the governor of plateau state.

And Martins Elechi, the Ebonyi State Governor, is over 80 years old!

Only in Nigeria is this possible, where the YOUTH of today have no hope into the FUTURE! Where do we go from here? People Deceive People (PDP)!

1985, IBB was the President of Nigeria and our teachers told us that Buhari was the former Head of State. Our teachers also called us “the leaders of tomorrow” … 27 years later, IBB and Buhari were still contesting for Presidency; it is either our teachers lied to us about being the leaders of tomorrow or tomorrow is yet to come. Who is fooling who? Some of us ran out of the country but Obasanjo went abroad chasing them; telling all nations to deport Nigerian youths.

Let us stand and fight for our right because we are the leaders of Today… Please, let all youths come to an alliance and fight for the unborn. We can't continue like this. Pass this message to everyone if you believe in the NIGERIA DREAM.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! I signed it. Will you do the same by sending to all your contacts? Then put me in the copy of your broadcasting.

******************************

A Nigeria For Us...

I hope the spread of messages like this motivates the youths to rise up and take their rightful place in the country. However, my major concern is the difference to expect when the youths eventually do — rather positive than negative — because having very talented, creative, younger but negative minds running affairs will bring the country nothing but mega doom. Fact remains that the age range of leaders is but a minor change to make a positive difference in Nigeria; the major change needed is US. We need to keep a positive, united and selfless mind — even the old will know their place — and we can then talk of a better Nigeria.
