MY LOVER IS A KILLER

   He is so handsome that you would think he is an angel He is good with words that you would mistake him for a poet He prays a lot that you would easily think he is a saint He promised me the world and forever, so I  innocently had faith in love once again. I buried myself in trusting him... Then as soon as I was head over heels in love and dancing carefree in his arms with my eyes closed, he grabs a knife from HELL and pierced through my flesh to my soul.  He watched me bleed out while he silently smiled from a corner. The stab was deep, he didn't hit to miss at all. My lover knew exactly what he was doing, he is nothing but a killer.  I'm dead but only to live in an invisible realm where I'm invincible.

Follow Trends Wisely


I was recently struggling with a burning desire to follow a particular trend even though that trend did not really suit my person. Thank goodness I snapped out of it quickly but this was what I learned

1. We all have the urge to belong to something- Every human always want to belong to  something or to be seen as a part to something and very few take out time to really consider what they are getting into and the overall consequences.

2. Our thinking is wrong- We think that trends and our being part of it 'validates' us but the truth is we validate trends. It can't be what we don't make it be and it certainly has no power to control us or make us be what we don't want to be.

3. We are more powerful than we know- Everything we do in this life is all about choices and decisions and that is where our power lies. Nothing has the power to control us,we have the power through choices/decisions to control everything in our lives.

4. Not following every trend is a trend that very few people follow and it is the best trend out there because it helps you follow the right trend or not follow at all but in the end you are still you... the very best you can be.

       Trends are not bad,I hope you didn't think I was implying that. If you must follow trend, pick the one that suits you and everything that makes you you. The last thing you want is to have a life time regret over a little moment of fun (following trends). I am Elizabeth Okojie, just writing my truth that may not necessarily be yours and it is absolutely okay to agree/disagree.

      If we truly find our kind then it will be "us"

    ..."Not following every trend is a trend that very few people follow". I like it because it speaks truth. Spaceman used to say "we don't follow trends, we create them". I guess creating your own trend isn't such a bad idea after all. Thanks Lizzy.

    Following trends have mislead a lot of people and would mislead more and more people. Until we tell ourselves the truth, we wouldn't get ourselves out of this trendy mess.

      Alot of bad trends have misled and are still misleading somany and people hardly know what they are getting into by following just about anything they see. Somethings are just not worth the stress and for me, most trends don't. Thanks for always being so awesome, I truly appreciate all you do.

    My trend is me. I'm to be imitate. Apostle Paul said be ye imitators of me as am a follow of Christ. People are to imitate us not the other way round. We are a role models. 2pet2:9 takes about be a Royal priest hood,Holy nation Chosen generation and Peculiar people. If you are all this people should copy you.
    What applies to A does not apply to B. We all have our own style. Don't be crazy about trend. You are your own style/trend.

      You're right. We should not be put under pressure by things that don't matter. Thanks a lot for your insightful contribution

WHEN TOMORROW COMES

              WHEN TOMORROW COMES When tomorrow comes It will be just  yesterday that it all began My shattered story now united in the           Pages of my memory        My story has many parts, colours and           shapes...blue, black, good and ugly.  When tomorrow comes and my                     youngselves sit around the table With their ears in their hands  My mouth will tell the colourful                     imperfect story that birthed and                   made me.  When tomorrow comes and                           yesterday becomes impossible to travel to  I will stand in your midst with my      ...

           MY KARMA CAME TOO FAST You know how they say what goes around comes around? Well, my karma came running home to me way too fast.   So, I'm the last child of my parents  and my immediate older brother is 7yrs older to me. Yah, I'm the real baby of the house. Well, my family is a close-knit family and I have always been endured and tolerated umhmm,I did get away with almost everything. Like sending my older ones to help me do stuff but I always never agree to doing anything for them without a fight, I always acted like am the older one and then I  took their stuff mostly without their permission. It felt like paradise at that time,it really did. 😂😂😂😂 The story is, my niece is just 11yrs and she is already showing me pepper. My things are practically hers,like babe left her bathing soap for mine and now I can't even see it anywhere to buy (no importing things yet). The one wey pain me pass, happened last two Sundays... I...
