I Learn To Give

*I Learn To Give*

I learn to give not because I have plenty but because I understand how it feels like to have nothing.

I learn to give not because I'm dumb and stupid for giving wholeheartedly but because I understand this principle that no one has ever become poor from giving joyfully.

I learn to give because I understand that giving is not just making donations or doing charity works but it is about making a difference in somebody's life no matter how small it is.

I learn to give because I understand that we rise by lifting others up with us. Because we were once down there and unrecognised until someone had empathy and compassion on us to lift us to the higher place we are today. So I learn to give also by returning a favour

I learn to give because I am a benefactor of mercy and grace and the devine providence of God. My blessings are multiplied as I learn to give freely to others from my heart. Because I recognise that all that I have is given unto me by the grace and mercies of God.

I learn to give to give through teaching and sharing my knowledge and inspiring people because I understand that educating people has not only the power to change a person but it also has the power to change society and a nation. Education is the greatest weapon to change a country and its people faster.

I learn to give because I understand this that give people your best that is within you at all times, and although sometimes painful, there is a joyful feeling of truth that the people you help also in turn spread the spirit of giving they have learnt to give unto others too.

Finally, I learn to give because giving is all I know and who I am.

What is your reason for giving?

Your Competition

Just remember, your competition isn't other people Your competition is; Your procrastination to getting important things done Your ego, that makes you think you are above everyone else Your unhealthy eating habits and health choices The knowledge you neglect because you think you know it all or because you think others don't have an opinion on a matter because they are not intelligent The negative mindset and behaviour you're nurturing because because you think you are not worth something Your lack of Creativity. Failing to explore new ideas or try new things because you think you will fail or not succeed again. You're not in competition with anyone but yourself.

How To Treat A Man

Men are often stereotyped for being weak or soft if they show their love or affection openly. But the truth is, men also need love too. Men need tender loving care and affection and attention just like women do. Caring, showing love and affection and giving attention is not only about women. It is about men too. Men also need early morning calls, just for their women to tell them sweet words too, encouraging words to carry them through the tough day they are already having or that sweet short text message you can send him just for him to know you love him and you are thinking about him. This is the reason why most married men  turn their attention to slay queens and side chicks looking for this kind of treatment. And not necessarily for sex. So from now on, ladies, start also calling your men and husbands, tell him sweet words, encourage him and inspire him,  learn to compliment him on his good looks, what he wears and appreciate with much admiration what he does for you....

The Blueprint To Racism

In this moment of a very dark chapter for all the black race across the globe, I began wondering what the death of the late American, George Floyd really meant to the Black African in America and in Africa. While thinking about this, my mind went back to an audio I have of a college graduation speech  that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave in Detroit in the mid 1950s. In his speech, the first thing, he asked the students and their professors (I imagine black and white people seated) was all my dear black people gathered here, I am asking you today ..... what is your blueprint at this moment? Nobody answered or said a word. He went on to tell the graduating students to work very hard to find their purpose in life. And not to play second fiddle  to anybody whether white or black, hispanic or asian. Because every human being here on earth is special and created uniquely by God, each of us giving a special talent or gift. He was giving this speech, following a similar incident...
