THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are. -Theodore Roosevelt

WHAT A STORY !!

The issue she brought before the Parliament is about the man in her life. She has two daughters for him. Even though it’s only INTRODUCTION that they have done since they got involved with each other about SEVEN years ago. She said that she loves him but he seems to be dragging her backward in life. He is a heavy gambler. He has a business that should be sustaining them but he is not expanding bec...ause he does not manage his finances well-those that started with him have gone very far in life. Her man is still where she met him-when he is not gambling, he is drinking himself to stupor. She lost her mum a few years back and inherited her restaurant business but she can’t even tell where all her proceeds from this business goes because her man seems to be draining her at an alarming rate. Recently, she raised almost half a million for them to inject into his business, till this day-he cannot account for a kobo of that money-after telling her so much lies(to get the money from her).When her mum was running this business, her mum was training her and her siblings in the higher institution and still managed to build a house(from the proceeds of the business) within a spate of few years. She feels bad because it’s almost like whatever she is making goes into a bottomless pocket-she pays the house rent and sees to the children’s schooling, while the man focuses on gambling. She has decided to chart a new cause for her life and she feels the best way she can rebuild her life is by distancing herself from this man. She has asked the Parliament to look into this matter and ADVISE her accordingly. She is 37years old.

ENOUGH!!!

The fault you are too quick to see in others also exists in you". What I can't seem to understand is why anybody would make it his/her business to point out the wrongs in the Igbos, yet, it is not as if we are unaware of the ATTITUDINAL ROT that exists in others but if I have decided not to make your seeming faults an issue in my life or feel the need to constantly shove my perception ...of your supposed shortcomings in your face-why not get busy elsewhere, especially when you know that the highest you can do(besides IDLE TALK SHOP) is to FACE THE LAGOON? All these BAD BELLE against the Igbos…Jesus! When will THE OTHERS learn that the Igbos are NWA CHI NA EMERE (he, whom the gods have crowned against all odds) and there is nothing anybody can do about it?........
If my attitude is over bearing to you, I am too pushy for your liking, I refuse to confine myself to your myopic expectation…there is just one way you can go about it-DEAL WITH IT! If you keep picking on the faults of other people, expecting them to change, you end up creating permanent tension. We are just who we are as a people...don't expect us to live to please you, because, much as lots of things about you don't go down well with us, we chose not to make it our business, in other words-WE JUST DON'T GIVE A HOOT! The Igbo man understands that life is a lot more important than making someone's perceived 'attitude' a project, We are rather too busy for all that PETTINESS. LET THE IGBOS BE…is that asking for too much?
ENOUGH of all these cleverly disguised posts to pit one ethnic group against the other...Nigeria has enough problems (corruption, insecurity, unemployment, poor educational and health facilities etc.) on her hands. I also know that if the IGBOS are completely removed from the equation called Nigeria today…Nigeria's problems will still persist because someone will wake up one day to despise another ethnic group for FEELING AT HOME in Nigeria!
NOTE… ‘’BAD BELLE is being preoccupied with my issues-when I don’t even know you exist’’Gosh        Bertha Ugonna Uzoma

TOP 8 STEPS TO GET THIS SMOKEY EYE LOOK...DO IT YOURSELF.

The smokey eye is both sexy and classic, two adjectives that often compete for center stage but are a beautiful marriage when describing iconic looks like this makeup technique.Whether your eyes are light or dark, you're going to a formal dinner or out with girlfriends, or you just feel like jazzing up your everyday routine.

Step 1: Fill your entire lid with a black eyeliner. This helps intensify the smokiness and makes your shadow stay put longer.

Step 2: Pat a black eyeshadow on top of the liner

Step 3: Gently drag the color into your crease and blend. Use short upwards stroke motions.

Step 4: With a larger -- clean -- blending brush, continue gently blending out the edges, getting rid of that harsh line.

Step 5: Concentrate blending the shadow outwards at the outer corner of your eye and the inner corner (up towards your eyebrow). You can add a bit more shadow to darken.

Step 6: Apply the same black shadow under your waterline, blending downwards

Step 7: This is the finished blending

Step 8: Apply mascara to top and bottom lashes

 The smokey eye shows no discrimination and is the perfect compliment to any look desired.

SHOULD SHE GET PREGANANT FOR HIM?

The issue she brought before the Parliament is about the man she’s dated for about TWO years now. She is 26, while he is 31 and he works in an oil company. The problem is that they are from different ethnic groups and her man has told her to TAKE IN (get PREGNANT) for him-so that they can get married without any hassles. According to him (her man)-her being pregnant is the only thing that will mak...e his parents not raise objections, regarding WHERE she came from. Her man also claimed that his twin Sister is not married till this day because their parents objected to her marrying any of the men that came to ask for her hand in marriage because of WHERE they come from. That, their parents have always preferred their children to marry within their ETHNIC group. She is still thinking about this suggestion from her man and has asked the Parliament to look into the matter and ADVISE her.

MEN’S WAYS…

 

The incident clearly shows that WOMAN MATTER is not necessarily enough to tear two men (that are bent on being close friends) apart…She was actually dating one of the two men (initially)-who shares a duplex with another friend of his (that has just relocated from Europe).Very easy going man, she probably found him boring-compared to the ‘lively fine boy’ that is the returnee from Europ...e. Shortly after she met the second guy-she started flirting with him.Infact, the ‘attraction’ was mutual…to the extent that she called the guy she was supposed to be dating- to tell him that she is actually in love with his friend and would want his blessing to move on. The guy gave her a long look, shrugged his shoulders and wished her well-as he walked away.
Her subsequent visits were to the other guy’s side of the building. A few weeks after LAYING HER THOROUGHLY, the ‘Yankee returnee’ sat her down to tell her that they have to stop seeing each other because HIS WIFE and kids were moving back to the country. She could not believe what she heard, she cursed him out for leading her on(failing to tell her that he was married) and marched to the other guy(whom she jilted for the ‘yankee returnee’) ,demanding to know why he also failed to warn her that she was falling into the hands of a man that’s already TAKEN. He gave her wicked grin, shrugged his shoulders and asked her to close his door –as she leaves his room… Just before she got to the door, he told her that he actually knew about her STOLEN SHOWS with his friend-long before she confessed to her feelings for his friend. He went on to explain that the first day she started flirting with his friend(the Yankee returnee),that his friend told him and it was actually him that encouraged his friend to PLAY ALONG…so all that BONKING was his friend playing along. He did admit (however) that he actually wanted to have a serious relationship with her but she killed something in him the moment she started flirting outrageously with his friend (FINE BOY)-it was then that he swore that he will rather lose his relationship with a lady, than lose a friend that he’s come a long way with (because of a woman -that he isn’t married to) …the two men are still VERY CLOSE till this day.
This is a story that a lady narrated to me recently, when she spoke to me about what she considers the worst mistake of her life, one that still makes her cringe with shame-despite the fact that the incident took place roughly ten years back.
As I mull over the story, I kept thinking to myself that men are indeed different from women in a lot of ways. They know when not to let WHAT DOES NOT MATTER come into their friendships. I can imagine the way ladies will tear themselves apart over a similar incident, a lady only needs to SUSPECT that you (even if you are best friends) are eyeing her man and all hell will be let loose-and the fact that she is fighting her best friend over a man that she isn’t even married to is immaterial. In her mind, she is fighting a HUSBAND SNATCHER…

ONCE A CHEAT... ALWAYS A CHEAT!...TRUE OR FALSE?

Curled from Linda Ikeji's Blog...you should read this...and make sure to walk if you are guilty! only after you have this full article.and then tell share your opinion on it.

Is the ‘once a cheat, always a cheat’ belief true? If your partner’s cheated once, are you wrong to trust them again? The answer isn’t as clear cut as it first appears because people cheat for different reasons.

If you’re trying to decide whether your partner deserves another chance, a more helpful question to ask is why did they cheat in the first place.

Some people cheat to get their partner’s attention. If their partner’s a workaholic or unavailable to them, being caught with someone else is a way of saying ‘Hey, if you love me, pay attention to me!'.

‘Payback cheating’ is also common. If you’ve cheated in the past or done something else to hurt your partner, they might retaliate to get even.

Has it happened before? A true serial cheater will often see nothing wrong with being unfaithful

If your partner's been desperately trying to tell you they're unhappy but not feeling heard, cheating might well be a cry for help (albeit not an advisable way to flag up relationship problems).

Even if you don’t decide to forgive, cheating for these reasons is entirely different than ‘opportunistic’ cheating: not turning down a low-risk opportunity simply because monogamy doesn’t supply the erotic charge that new flesh delivers.

Trying to predict whether your partner will cheat again?

Ask yourself these questions: What’s their cheating history? If they’ve cheated on every person they’ve ever been out with and been forgiven for doing so, why should they stop?

It might cause you problems, but it’s working for them. A true serial cheater will often see nothing wrong with being unfaithful. 

When caught, they’ll either get angry and tell you it’s none of your business - making it easier to leave - or turn on the tears and blame their past, making (false) promises they’ll reform. They won’t.

If your partner has a history of being unfaithful and forgiven or they’ve done it to you repeatedly, they will almost certainly continue to cheat.

What was the state of the relationship? If your relationship’s in tatters - you’re not communicating well and arguing bitterly - it’s easier to understand and forgive than if someone cheats when you’ve just come back from a blissfully, loved-up holiday in the Caribbean.

What sort of person is your partner? Is this out of character for them? Are they otherwise kind and loving?

Do you have children together? If you do, there’s clearly more incentive to try to work it out.

Is your relationship worth fighting for? Have you been limping along for a while now, with no real joy left? Or is this a horrible but genuine mistake in an otherwise solid relationship?

If your partner's been desperately trying to tell you they're unhappy but not feeling heard, cheating might well be a cry for help, argues Tracey

How sorry are they for betraying you? Do they accept how much they’ve hurt you and genuinely want to make it up to you?

If you decide your partner is worth taking the risk on again, take a long, hard look at that last sentence and make sure the answer is yes.

The problem with giving second chances is this: once you forgive bad behavior, you effectively condone it.

It needs to be absolutely clear that if you find out they’ve cheated again, you’ll walk with no questions asked.

If you’ve already done this and it’s a repeat offense, walk now

WHAT' DO YOU ADVICE?

The matter he brought before the Parliament is about his wife and uncle (his mum’s ELDER brother). He inherited his late mum’s place in her Father’s compound and that is where he and his wife have been living-coupled with the fact that the location of the area helped flourish his business. His mum’s elder brother (whose family resides in another state) also relocated back home (same compound)-after his years in the civil service. So, in a way, it looks like a FAMILY HOUSE setting where his uncle is deferred to as the head of the family. Even though he seems to be taking his position in the family too serious-even to the point of meddling in others’ affairs. For example, his uncle has been complaining about his wife’s dress sense.
 His uncle claims that his wife (of two years and the mother of his one year old son) does not dress like a married woman- that she dresses as if she is still single. Fact is that he has no problems with his wife’s way of dressing and has said so to his uncle but his uncle still went ahead to have a confrontation with his woman-accusing her of carrying on (via her dressing) as if there is still vacancy for other men in her life…yet these exact dressing of his wife is what turns him on. He is very confused about how to handle this…he would not want to make his uncle to feel insulted (by being confronted) but at the same time, the man is driving him nuts. Would it be nice to ask his wife to stop being herself to appease his uncle?
He has asked the Parliament to ADVISE him. His father (although NOT MARRIED to his mother is late). He is 30 years old, while his wife is 24years old.

THE CURSE OF FACEBOOK…

I have always likened Facebook( and the social media in general) for some MEN to a child who finds himself in a candy shop and suddenly realized that he can actually have any candy of his choice by merely expressing enough interest.
We also know that the social media is a PLAY GROUND of sorts for MOST men-who one assumed (they) know where to draw the lines but it’s beginning... to look like one actually underestimated the HOLD that some of the activities on Facebook (as it relates to AVAILABLE GIRLS) have on these men and what makes this very painful is realizing that a sane family man will knowingly jeopardize his marriage and the welfare of his family for FACEBOOK WHORES!
It was a weekend with a HURTING WIFE…You know how devastating it feels when you suddenly realize that the spouse you can vouch (to any length) for is far from the persona he presents? That was the experience of this lady. All came in the open on the day he forgot to log off the internet and she needed to use the computer. She did not only realized that her husband (a man in his LATE 40s) has numerous FAKE online identities (with which he preyed on UNDER AGED GIRLS), he has also been sending them money-same man that has been asking her to TRY TO UNDERSTAND whenever she pointed to the fact that the money he makes is never felt at home these days-especially where the needs of the house hold is concerned. This is a man that has infected her TWICE and threw 3k at her to go treat herself. She said that the most painful one is that he no longer goes to church, even when he is eating-he is pinging. And the day she knew this is no longer ordinary was on a day that he was in front of his computer and their 3year old sauntered by-that he shouted on the boy and she ran out of the room-thinking something happened to their baby-only to realize that her husband was only mad because the boy was disrupting his FACEBOOK CHAT SESSION. The weekend she was expected to go into labour (for their second baby)-her husband claimed to have an emergency business related trip out of town. That night she went into labour, his gsm lines were unreachable. It was neighbours (who couldn’t believe that a man would dare travel at such a period) that took her to the hospital. The day she stumbled on his FACEBOOK exchanges also explained her husband’s absence on the night she went into labour…he and the new FACEBOOK catch were regaling each other with their sexcapades! She told me that it hurts to suddenly realize that you don’t even know whom you have been married to all along. She said the whole thing made her feel so insecure that she had to swallow her hurts one day to ask if ALL THESE has anything to do with some inadequacy on her part, as a wife…because when she confronted him with her findings-he became so emboldened with his interactions with ‘face book girls’ such that when they are supposed to have a family time in the sitting room-he sits away from her and the kids…pinging!
A man who has no discipline over his actions will never go far in life. I know that most men on the social media are being MISCHIEVOUS but for one to brazenly jeopardize his marriage/family welfare over some DIRTY FACEBOOK GIRLS (that string other men along as well) is most disappointing. We have been heaping insults on YERIMAs of the senate but some men do worse-from the comforts of their home and laptop/BB. It is a SHAME that any man will lose his head in this manner…when REAL MEN are busy making life better for their families. MOST of the so called FACEBOOK girls have simply ‘ported’ from standing on the streets to hustling men on the social media…just so you know what you are allowing yourself to get into-when that girl jumps on you with all SEX OFFERS.

Dem nor dey stand for road again-thanks to Facebook and cousins…WOE BETIDE ANY FAMILY MAN that loses his head over this-to the detriment of his family!

SHE NEED'S YOUR ADVICE!

The issue she brought before the Parliament is about a man (in his early 40s) that her cousin introduced her to. The man is said to have relocated from abroad, after his wife and the mother of his two daughters (whom he took abroad for further studies) divorced him about FIVE years ago. They have been communicating so well and when it was time for them to meet-he invited her to his base. She visit...ed him, they chatted familiarly –almost like they have known each other for years. He is a comfortable man by all standards. But something is troubling her spirit; she spent FOUR DAYS at his house-sleeping on the same bed with him every night.

The first night, they chatted till late (while on the bed) but he did not touch her, the second day-same thing. So, on the third and fourth nights, she cuddled up to him (caressing his navel and tummy) during the early hours of the morning but this man did NOT stir .He pretended to be fast asleep and this disturbs her. She did the cuddling (very early in the morning) because she knows that the bodies of most men are usually ‘up’ at such times of the day but she found an exception in this man. She likes him but this is a worry to her. His only remark (when she made a veiled comment about what happened between them) is that HE IS WELL TRAINED BY HIS PARENTS, THUS HE HAS A GREAT DEAL OF DISCIPLINE…THAT HE DOES NOT BELIEVE IN SEXUALLY RUSHING ANY WOMAN THAT COMES HIS WAY.

When she relayed her observation to her cousin, her cousin told her that this man could be suffering from the trauma of his failed marriage and the manner in which the woman he has done so much for divorced him-it was said that she laid claim to almost 80% of his assets over there. Her friends have told her that there is more to his wife’s reasons for divorcing him because he is a comfortable man by every standard-whom most women will like to keep.

She is confused right now and has come to the Parliament for ADVICE. She is 32years old

BEDROOM BABIES…

My senior (married) friends all came to the conclusion that MOST men that wield a lot of power in their individual endeavours are reduced to mere babies in the BEDROOM. Those that I sought their opinion on this matter range from women that are married to men in various professions (a: lawyer, doctor, military man and a businessman).
These lovely women gave me further insight into th...e BABY nature of most men (especially in the BEDROOM-however powerful/great such a man is).
For example, one of the women told me that when it’s time for SHOW in the bedroom and she makes the mistake of doing the CLIMBING.Ha! The yells that escape her man’s lips are NNE MU O,NNE MU O(meaning MY MUMMY O,MY MUMMY O)…she told me that she is yet to find out if he is actually calling his late mum to come to his rescue or if that is his BEDROOM PET NAME for her.
The second lady told me that when she decides to RIDE him, that her man is usually too SUBDUED to shout. His moans are usually HMMMN, HMMMN, HMMMN! This is why I will become (from today) suspicious of anyone, whose COMMENT to my post is ‘hmmmn’…they could be typing from the BEDROOM (while somebody is at work on them)-you know?
Another lady told me that her man’s yell (in the bedroom) is usually HEI, HEEII, HEEEIII!
The last lady laughing told me that her guy’s yell in the bedroom varies but on a day that she decides to CLIMB AM ehn-he will go YOU HAVE KILLED ME BABY, BABY YOU HAVE KILLED ME, BABY I SAID THAT YOU HAVE KILLED ME O! Who still questions the power of a woman, who is capable of reducing THEM (they know themselves) to mere babies in the BEDROOM?

 I have even decided to MURDER (nor be only KILL) somebody tonight…Maka Chukwu.Trust me, I will let you know my latest BAPTISMAL NAME from the encounter*winks*….

HAPPY HOLIDAY! WITH LOVE FROM ME TO YOU..

THOUGHT OF THE DAY!

Sometimes you gotta create what you want to be part of. Geri Weizmann

YOUR ADVICE .....

The issue she brought before the Parliament is about her husband-who lives in Lagos while she stays in the South East with their children (2 boys and a girl) because of her JOB. Though she and the children visit her husband as often as possible-especially during the holidays or whenever she is on leave. He also comes around to see them-as often as his business commitments allow him.
The problem is that her husband has an elder brother that is late. The man died about 5years ago, leaving behind a wife (in her late 30s) and their two sons. Her husband has been responsible for the woman’s upkeep (even though he established a business for her) and the education of her children. Her children are in expensive private schools-thanks to her husband. Recently, she has been hearing stories from her cousins that come to their house (in Lagos) that this woman has become a frequent visitor to their home. They said that initially she would come on a Friday and... leave on Tuesday-claiming to have come to purchase the items she sells in her shop. But these days, she comes and spends a week at a stretch (cooking and cleaning…even though there are domestic assistants in the house). The woman lives in a state (in the South West) -that is a few hours drive from Lagos. 

This is bothering her because her husband’s other siblings (especially the sisters) all stay in Lagos-why can’t she visit any of the sisters, why her husband? She has raised the issue with her husband and he denied having anything to do with the woman besides showing concern for her welfare. But her sources said that the woman comes around on frequent basis. She is considering confronting the woman and warning her to steer clear-she can be assisted from a distance.

She is also thinking of bringing the matter to the knowledge of her husband’s family (his parents and siblings)but she wants the Parliament to ADVISE her first.

TOP 15 THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE GETTING INTO MARRIAGE

Dear reader what am about to write may not be comfortable at first,but it is to ensure that couple know themselves well enough to operate on same page especially on key issues that affect marriage and relationships. Considering the alarming rate of break ups in most marriages today. Below are the basic ingredients for a fulfilled happy union.

1.    Money : Nothing is as un-sexy as talking about budget,as scary as it seems its been found to be the biggest source of contention in most partnership.so bring it up and talk about it often because it really matters.

2.    Children : Decide if you both want kids,and how many?when do you intend to have them? and how do you intend to meet their needs and welfare?

3.    Dreams : What do you both want out of life?It's important you work together to make sure each of you are able to meet your individual goals.

4.    Living : Where do you want to live? his place? your place? somewhere else? clearly state and agree on why you want to live there.Is it best for both of you?

5.    Family Ties : I personally recommend this to you.Set up emotional boundaries when it comes to extended family-yours and his. And hey never talk bad about your neighbors.

6.    Religion: If religion is a big thing for either of you or you both,decide if you will go to church? will one of you change religion?Is it ok with you both if you are not same religion? what about how you will raise your kids?

7.    Old flames : Are either of you in contact with your old boyfriends/girlfriend? Is it important?Is it healthy?

8.    Past Experience : Its most likely that you broke it off with other partners for a reason...why? what did you learn about the relationship and yourself? what about him?

9.    Secrets: In marriage their are no secrets, because you will see it all. So make sure to confess all your dirty laundry and get used to keeping the line of communication open.

10. Communication : Its important to talk about how to have a proper discussion with your partner.Discuss how you will each handle conflict even before they arrive.

11.  Sexuality : Sex is the bedrock for every successful marriage.In fact there's an old myth about not having sex 3Sx when you are married...So it's healthy to discuss it.

12.   Love : Please try and read this book by Gary Chapman."The 5 love   languages " How you each show your love matters after awhile...what about him?If you don't make it clear how you show love,it can take a toll on a marriage.

13. House Chores: Who does what around the house? will you have a to do list? for him? will you be responsible for certain aspects while your partner does others?which ones? how?

14. Values : What are your values? his? whats OK in his mind may not be ok in yours,so its vital you discuss this before you get in too deeply.

15. Date night: Discuss romantic and fun ways to spice up your relationship and continually renew your love/vows. date nights...? Spend a night in front of the TV without any distractions?doesn't matter right...but it need to happen...heee

ASO EBI MATTER !!…

When a friend (that had her wedding RECENTLY) complained that the PLASTIC (rubber) gifts she received as wedding gifts will last her a life time- I had a good laugh and reminded her about the 15k she made friends and relatives cough out for ASO EBI. If people sweat out 15k for ASO EBI (that they hardly wear twice) alone, God knows how much they will set aside for the dress maker and whatever else it will cost to transport them to the wedding venue…what kind of gift do you expect them to give you again?

 

 Na the remaining CHANGE dem go take wrap anything wey dem see for you o.This same lady was so mad at me for refusing to be a part of the ASO EBI show. She reported me to God knows how many people…all I did was pay what I could afford into her account but I refused to go for the wedding because I was not ready to incur extra expenses for some cloth that I will probably not wear twice.

There is a huge lesson for ‘newly marrieds’ here…don’t he...ap unreasonable expenses on people just because you want things to be all colorful on your day. Some of that money they can spend on ASO EBI will come handy for you when the chips are down. Every newly wedded knows that POCKET GOES DRY after the wedding expenses. You can’t expect to receive reasonable gifts after making people part with so much money on your ASO EBI.If there must be an ASO EBI…let the price be reasonable. 

How can you be selling a 3k worth of ANKARA to your guests for about 15k? 

It really is not a ‘must’ to wed when you are not economically ready to undertake the task but making people finance your wedding indirectly (by exploiting them on the ASO EBI matter) is most cheapening. Another thing is doing things within your capacity, you are not in competition with anybody and besides, the focus of every newly married should be to ‘tarry with each other’ through thick and thin…all that ‘show’ never makes a marriage. That is why I wish there was some ‘happily ever after’ guarantee for those that now jet out of the country to conduct their engagements/weddings. 

Marriage itself is rather too ‘substance based’-for all that ‘show’…my two cents!

YOUR TAKE ON THIS PLEASE...

 The issue she brought before the Parliament is about an orphaned girl that she brought from her village to give a good education in the City. The girl is 13years old. It happened on a day that she asked her to take dinner to her husband’s younger brother (he just finished his NYSC and seeking for a job) that stays in their boys quarters. When the girl was taking longer than necessary, she gave in to a disturbing thought that was tugging at her mind. So, she tiptoed to the BQ-to behold her brother in-law (in his mid-twenties) on top of the small girl.

She did not find it funny at all and on serious questioning-the girl claimed that the boy forced her into the act. When she asked why she did not bother reporting the boy to her or her husband, the girl claimed that the boy threatened to kill her if she tries it. When they confronted the boy, he claimed that the girl has been coming to him on her own accord and that was neither the second nor the third time they have had such encounters. She is so confused right now, her friends have advised her to bundle the girl back to where she came from.

That the fact that the girl concealed the boy’s ‘advances’ towards her means that she is mischievous and no longer as innocent as assumed. She has asked the Parliament to ADVISE her on the best way to handle this matter.

What is your advice?
