GROWING UP

We often mistake growing old for growing up. But do you know you can actually grow old without growing up? People would ask how is that possible? But yes, it's very possible. Every second of our life,we grow old but not every body grow up. We've actually seen people at age 20 behaving like babies. Every year we celebrate our birthdays and scream 'I'm grown now',Yes but we are actually growing older. Not everybody is growing up but everyone is growing old. Even Apostle Paul said,' when I was a child, I behave like a child and think like a child, but now that I'm a man, I put away childish things'

It's very common among us these days that most of us still wait for elderly ones to give out instructions before we do them. There are many things we as growing youths should know how to do without waiting for instructions from elderly ones. Lol, yes 80% this 21st century youths are guilty of this. If we're not told to do something, we can't even bother doing it even to stand up from the bed.
 

In growing up, we have our own choices to make we don't need to depend on anybody for those choices any longer. We make them since we feel they'd be good to us but it's important to make the right choice. We start taking responsibilities of little things, thinking by ourselves and being a little independent. We don't need babysitting any longer, we have to rise up to achieve what we want because we can't sit and our dreams would walk to us, it's not possible!
 

We also have weaknesses. In growing up, we have to either accept them or work on them. Our weaknesses could just destabilize us most times that we don't have a choice than to put them away.

It is also necessary to know that while growing up, we have to balance our lives, morally, academically, spiritually, financially and socially and even with our relationships. One aspect can not be slacking and the other is growing. We can't be 20 and be behaving like 8, if we are 20 let's behave 20 or even 25.


If we all grow up, the world would be a better place.
Shalom!

ON LOVE ISSUES

Have you ever been in love that you don't even know how to control it any longer? It's so obvious. You can't do without him/ her. You always want to be near the person and so on. But why do most people fall in love? Maybe all the care and attention they need is with that individual or maybe they just naturally love that person's personality or they just like the way the person talks, relates or even interacts. Falling in love,to me, is one of the most critical things. Like when you just have to think of one person all day, all you do must centre around the individual and you just have to do things to please that person. The worst is when you love and it's not reciprocated. It's like, huh, a waste of time. Yes, you're always the one starting up conversations,you're always caring,asking the needful like 'How are you?, How did the day go?' And you get straight answers like 'Fine,okay and so on'. You easily tend to fall out of such love....

He was the definition of being Handsome Girls were at his beck and call They swarm around him like bees He was their Hermes Charming and adorable He was simply lovable at first sight But his intentions were not as his looks He was handsomely a cheat He was a player He would get them at an instance And dump them at that instance He saw them as weaklings They were to be disposed Until he found her His Pandora, his true love He wouldn't stop breaking hearts While on the road some day He met her He felt his looks could get her But she was too principled to be his He sought every opportunity to get her But all to no avail He had never failed in getting any girl before But why this one? He would cry and roam about to see her She still didn't want him He did everything impressive But still she wouldn't glance at him Other girls were not appealing any longer He cried all day and night But she had her lover He saw her in white dress And Her lover in s...
