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?

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....

Raising Responsible Children

To be a good parent to your child or children means parents must sacrifice their desires and needs for that of their children. Because of this, you must make sure to teach them the right things and guide them on the right path so they can become the proud children you dream of them to become in the future. At this early stage of their lives, we are the only ones they are looking up to. So every thing we teach them is of utmost importance to their growth and social development. Disciplining your children can be a tough thing to do in today's world. But you risk nurturing bad children if you allow them to do wrong without setting boundaries and limits for punishment. Do your best to deter them from harm or evil. Spare the rod, spoil the child. Hopefully if you and I can do this right, our  children will be the mirror of the perfect world we seek. I leave you with the lyrics from the song, the greatest love of all by George Benson and later Whitney Houston. I believe that chi...

Trust

Many of us today did  trust in other people blindly  so much that we never thought they will do us any wrong or betray us, but they did. They took advantage of our naivety and our complete believe in them to control and manipulate us into getting what they want from us, after that,  they left us alone in the cold. All because we trusted them.We were naive to trust in the wrong people. Period! On the other hand, we were the ones people trusted so much and yet we let them down and disappointed them. To their suprise, they may have been expecting the disappointment and the betrayal to come from a complete stranger they don't know, but it came from us. We all at one point in our lives have been victims and offenders in this game of trust. It is better to tell a bitter truth to a person you love so he can cope in difficult situation in life and be self reliant and independent in all things than to tell a sweet lie that will cause someone to depend on you or trust you co...
