The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

My diabolic husband

It was daybreak, Obioma had spent all the day at Onuogba stream. Looking very much tarty walking down the stream Nwokocha saw her. Her body had a powerful magnetising effect on
him, as soon as he beheld her fragile face his body became hot from his palmwine tree. Suddenly, he stopped; abandoning his kegs of palmwine, he began to climb down. He called out on her with complete importune tone.

Although, he had earlier whispered on her but she ignored. She was sad that morning after

the deep thought she had at the stream. She remembered that her children had not eaten. She had no food left in her hut. She realized that she had not been taking proper care of her children since her husband died and for the fact that she had remiss in her duty as a mother affected them badly. All this made her not to pay him attention.

Nwokocha was a complete clown and drunk. He ended up in one bar or the other after supplying them palm wine. At times, he slept at the bar and would return to his house the following morning. Barely had he concentrated on his palm wine tapping business.
The moment he packed his bicycle at one corner, the first lucky bar he had to supply palm wine would be his parlour. And he would end up spending his day there he wouldn't hesitate sharing his remaining jars of palmwine among his cheering friends who ended up hailing him till the wine finished.
After drinking to their fill, there would be a pandamoniun of chanting songs and drunken rabble.

He was always in the mood of high spirits and at the same time showing jolly face. That was the reason why even when he had not taken any drink he still behaved frantic, acting abnormal.

Nwokocha disguisted her. Susan was aware that Nwokocha was her late husband's cousin, yet she despised him. That was because Nwokocha was diabolic. He was always  boasting of his diabolic powers because he commune with the spirits and believed in charms to the extent that he was adding quantity of portion to his palmwine to attract customers.

Though Nwokocha had a knobbly joint he was hefty that notwithstanding, people were afraid of him due to his diabolism. Nwokocha inherited this from his father Onuowu who did not only steal yam from people's barn, he harvested people's crops from their farm and livestocks from their pottery, Nobody was bold and courageous to question him because they were afraid of death.

Nwokocha took after his father, though people secretly accused him of his crime but no one could stand to his face and say anything ill about him and Obioma was very scared of him like he was a venom, yet Nwokocha found her out. He began to make advances at her.

One day, he brought her a kegful of palmwine as a gift. He also bought her a perfume. Immediately she smeared the perfume on her body, she ran after Nwokocha. People were surprised and began to gossip, "she has been charmed by crafty Nwokocha with his love potion." Shortly after this, he proposed marriage to her and she accepted.

Lesson:
It is good for us to be hardworking. Longing throat is not good.

Don't you think that if Obioma had refused those gifts, she wouldn't have been charmed?

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself.

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.
