NOW IS THE TIME

You ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it six years, like high school? Four years, like university? One year? A sixteen-week semester? Can your life change in a month, a week or a single day?
Do you ever wonder if you make the moments in your life or if the moments in your life make you?
Haley James Scott asked her class a question in One Tree Hill 5x02 and it stroked me, so here I am asking you the same. Do you understand that the rest of your life is being shaped right now?
Well, I hate to tell you, the rest of your life is a long time and whether you like it or not, it’s being shaped right now.
Where are you presently? What’s the situation like with you? Are you going to allow your present define/affect your future? Where do you see yourself in the next five years? Have your future been mapped out? By you or by someone else? What are those things you see yourself doing? Where do you see yourself doing it? Who do you see doing it with? When your dreams come true, who do you see standing next to you? Are you even happy seeing the future you?
Quickly DISCOVER yourself and find answers to the above. DEVELOP yourself towards the answers. BUILD yourself towards your potentials and UTILIZE yourself for greater good. The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It is yours. I’m telling you it’s not too early to start walking and working yourself towards your dreams now, ’cause the rest of your life is being shaped right now. NOW IS THE TIME.
Chad Michael Murray once said; “Do not let your life go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach.
The rest of your life is a long time and whether you like it or not, it’s being shaped right now. You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate or bad luck or bad choices. Or you can fight back. Things are not gonna be fair in the real world. That’s just the way it is. But for the most part, you get what you give.
The rest of your life is being shaped right now. With the dreams you chase. The choices you make. And the person you decide to be.
You ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it six years, like high school? Four years, like university? One year? A sixteen-week semester? Can your life change in a month, a week or a single day? We’re always in a hurry- To grow up, to go to places, to get ahead: But when you are young, one hour… can change everything.
THE REST OF YOUR LIFE IS A LONG TIME… AND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE STARTS NOW.

SORRY

At the beginning of 2017, I started writing about forgiveness, up till this very day, the article is still a “work in progress”. What prompted me to write about something I would not finish still baffles me, it is still my longest unfinished work. Just a month and few days before I started writing forgiveness, someone who was a great part of me did something really bad, something I wouldn’t have done to anyone, even my greatest enemy. I told myself I’ve forgiven the person but at the same time I did not really want to have anything to do with the person again. Maybe that was really the cause of my “forgiveness” woe. One bizarre fact about me is that I am a kind of guy that doesn’t really show his emotion, I am the type that would smile through hardship, failure and other bad stuffs, crying isn’t just for me, nay. I would rather smile a damning smile than allow people to start asking questions or start consoling m, but there had been two occasions where I couldn’t fight it and both we

IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO

“I was the only constant thing in her life, I’ve always been” he said. I didn’t know what else to say, so I asked what he meant by the word ‘constant’. Here’s his story. Well, I’ve been dating for more than four (4) years now, and somehow id always known she’d had series of flings (sometimes she also knew I was aware of them), but then she always knew I was where she belonged and therefore doesn’t indulge in one for long. While paying my utmost attention to him, I asked in a soft voice “so she was always cheating on you?”. “Not really, I wouldn’t call it cheating”, he answered. “So what would you call it?” I asked. “Well, em, em.., it’s like test, testing other people”, he stuttered. In short she was never faithful with you? Besides, what would happen if she tested and tasted someone better than you? I queried. “It’s not ever been faithful but not totally faithful” he answered trying to defend her. Scoffing I said, what else, anything yet I need to know? Yeah, most times s
