In this time where everything is on the fast lane; fast food, microwave cooking and, if you are a student like me,you would probably also rush for classes, its very easy to pay little or no attention to details.  Details are the core or connecting dots in attaining true or in-dept understanding.They are those tiny information that are easily waved off or shoved off.  Paying attention to details helps us to do things thoroughly and thus get the very best of it. Most people do not like paying attention to details and some unknowingly don't because they claim there's no time or are not ready to 'slow down'. Paying attention requires time and patience.  The thing is, the things you take quality time to do usually pays off on the long run.Whatever you get the 'true feel' of sticks with you longer. It comes in 2 forms: REFLECTION - ruminating on your past experiences and making sense out of them for your growth or future life before ...

There are 7.4 billion people on earth. Findings say adults make 35,000 decisions daily while babies make 3000 decisions(you didn't know that,did you?). About 3.2 billion fall within the age range of 15-44years of age. Very few things bring life and excitement or enthusiasm like a new idea you think is so great. It could almost take all your attention and mind.You can almost have an 'action rush' , as you would go all the way out just to get your idea to come into reality. Note that an action rush is different from a 'steady build '. Like any other great thing in life, challenges,especially unprecedented will arise (many of them disrupting your plan!) I came to realize that nothing beats a person who not just has an idea but knows God. I got to this point in 2015 where I just had to settle to really find my God and grow my faith. What exactly does it mean to know God? Knowing God is like enlarging your understanding of God and establishing a personal strong be...

Hi hi hi!!! Its been a while yeah? Yes I know. But i am excited to be here. I am working on a series of 10 lessons I learnt in 2015. In a nutshell though, I learnt to speak from been silent I learnt to be silent form speaking I learnt to pay attention from neglecting I learnt to neglect from paying attention I learnt to smile beyond the pain I learnt to go on my knees(pray) I learnt to trust God It was really a defining year for me. Like, every of God's word made so much sense like never before. Okay,let me stop there...  I should be releasing them from Wednesday 20th. Never stop praising God regardless of what's going on. Have a grateful heart for whatever little you have. Remember~ All things work together for good for those that love the Lord and are the called according to His purpose .-Romans 8:28. :) P.S: I had the opportunity to serve in my church at school,that's how I got to learn certain things. So,get a place of worship to serve God; God's go...

World's AIDS Day.Marked every annually in 1st December.  I got to know about this day through a student Medical Association in my uni called 'EMSA' (European Medical Student Association). Somehow I got really interested in been actively involved this year in my own little way. (Though this is coming a little late,its been hanging in my dashboard since 31stNov.) Just a short overview of what its about: Its that day of the year that had been set out since 1988 to raise an awearness on HIV and show support for people living with  HIV. Usually a theme is chosen for this campaign following consultation with UNAIDS,WHO and other agencies to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS. Since 2011 the theme for World's AIDS Day has been 'Getting to Zero: Zero new HIV infections. Zero deaths from AIDS-related illnesses. Zero discrimination. There's  this red ribbon thats used as a default sign of support: I especially want to write about Zero discrimination. Discrimination is...

  'In the Journey of life,there are winding roads, mountains wide and valleys low...' These lines are  from a song I like so much-Called to be by Jonathan Nelson!-you should listen to it. :)                           https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvnDJguLuG0 I came across this bible passage and I thought it was great I shared the beauty it brought to my soul...lol. Romans 12:17-21(especially 21)AMP- 'Do not let yourself be overcome by evil but overcome (and master) evil with good.' Though young(and learning) but yeah,I can say in life there are valleys and mountains. And they challenge your character,the very person that you are. The very core of your person!  I have come to understand that the things that challenge us as children of God are to grow us. Every challenge you face as a child of God is a pointer to what you should handle through God's word/help. Talking about living ...

Feminism -Some say its to be FLAWLESS. Personal is Politics-this is a term associated with feminism. I find it really interesting.  :) I had the privilege of giving a talk on feminism in my church at school. :) Yeah! Its a topic I had not paid so much attention to but found it really interesting as I prepared for the talk. I thought I should share what I got to understand. I especially want to share things based on God's word or  rather how things should really be! My definition of feminism from the several ones I read is basically: A movement that pushes the idea of equality among male and female on economic,political,social and cultural rights/basis. A feminist advocates or supports the right and equality of women with men. They contend for women's right. The whole movement on feminism arose basically because women had less rights compared to men in the society. I realized there have been many waves of  feminism based on the different rights that was been fo...

Attachments area Preview attachment IMG4F8C It was one of those days in September (2015). I had this outfit on to class. I sure did feel good and confident in it :) . I'm getting to class and couple of my group mate are amazed! (that expression between shock and cool). Yeah! I've never really dressed in that kind of style before. .... As I walked down the street,I actually did think about people been surprised at my outfit for the day. But then,I thought,this may not be my conventional style but someone will see me and get very comfortable been his/herself. Why?- someone else can resonate with their style.That alone gave me some more confidence with every step I took. Every other person is classy and elegant but you are bohemian  Every other person is corporate but you are casual Everyone seems to have it all figured out but you are lost. Everyone seems to be short but you are tall Everyone seems to be doing life big but you can't st...
