At times I have nostalgic feeling about courtship. Lust and infatuation carry us away causing distraction as to disconnect our sense of reason in examining our partners. Lovemaking consciousness, eros, we seem to engage more of our time on love affair instead. This is because we forgot that when it finally results to marriage, we will not be able to deal with some of those weaknesses we earlier ignored. Because it's quite unfortunate that most of us young people after the long courtship most times we still end up with the wrong person(someone we are incompatible with). What I am saying is that we have to be more careful during " courtship " as to make the right lifetime partner, always bear in mind that it's not a hit and run affair-marriage is a more serious affair, purer than our usual boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. Why we need adjustment in marriage is because of the issues that elicit from temperament and issues of weaknesses of partners. And there is ne...

Is there anything opposite than male and female? Yet they still attract each other after so many decades. In fact, the future of the race is dependent on such attraction.

In Africa women are to be submissive and under the Supreme protection and control of her man. In Africa women are being treated as slaves by there men- " domestic violent " but I don't think that revolts of wives against their husbands can remedy this obnoxious situation. Because it has taken over as lifestyle. Sadly, men are taking their women for granted. However, this, notwithstanding, women are now bent at going extra mile, beyond the men imagination, just to retrieve and or to recover their status quo (pride of womanhood).

Life is ever a series of partings. The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them; a man may live long yet live very little. When you enlarge others, you help them make the most of the time they have and raise their quality of life. The great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used up. To determine whether you are still growing, ask yourself what you are still looking forward to. If you can't think of anything or you are looking back instead of ahead, your growth may be at a standstill. The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge. One life, a little gleam of time between two eternities; no second chance for us for ever more. Any day that passes without personal growth is an opportunity lost to improve yourself and to enlarge others. It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are. There is a price to pay to grow,  commitment is the price. ...

You become the thing people say you are if you accept what they say. You live the idea you accept. You become your thoughts. This is why thoughts and ideas are so crucial.
