You should never walk alone

-


I really thought very lowly of myself in the past with no confidence that people really cared about me. I cared about people from a distance with a wish that they would know how much I cared but in vain.  When I look back, I was simply living in denial. It has gradually dawned on me that the choice to invite people into my life is mine. We each have a choice to be there for someone or distance ourselves from them.

Life comes with diverse opportunities that we can make use of. We all have what it takes to build great networks. Social gatherings, family events and our corporate circles come with all kinds of opportunities. 

The bible makes it clear that God too does not want us to walk alone. He will always walk with us wherever we go and with whom .
Joshua 1:9 New International Version (NIV)
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Over the years, it has now become so clear to me that to nurture myself, I need more people to look up to , to hang out with, to share life with and to be there for others too.

I know that some of us may have trust issues and probably prefer to walk this life alone because you trust no one. You can at least look out for objective friends so you don’t find oneself in a trap of regret. Don’t aim at making friends for benefits. Be the friend they need before you try to come off as needy and desperate instead. 

I once mentioned that the culture of complimenting and recognizing our friends should become our way of life and that for sure is the right way for us to strengthen our circles so the world is a fun place to stay.
Have you abandoned so many people out there? Take this moment and reconsider your walk in life. Are you walking alone because you choose to, are you ready to adventure and allow yourself to meet all kinds of people and allow them to embrace you as you embrace them?

Life in color♥️💕🌈

Not so long ago, I informed a friend that life without color for a lady is plain. He seemed not to see it that way. Perhaps not every lady. The era of makeup does throw a bit of light onto that statement.  We choose how we want to see life. For some of you, if the music stops playing, then your rhythm will stop while for someone else they still have a continued rhythm even without a sound. It is how I visualize life in my head without the actual crayons. I have attended events that have allowed me to experience variations in choices of color and artistry. You can tell the character of a person by what they surround themselves with. For my case, I love a good quality book for a journal with pages that will keep me writing. I enjoy the feel of a good pen as I write my thoughts. Such is the same with life, surround yourself with what articulates your personality. Hang with friends that add impact to you, people that won't judge you when you chose to dance naked in the rain. Sit wi...

Your Appeal

Hello! Anyone!? Are you there? Come and lets share our random thoughts. So how about we talk about perception and how people make conclusion of who you really are. After a long time now, I have gradually come to understand we are surrounded by people with different personalities. Do not spend your life expecting everyone to see life the way you see it. Let us start by saying you always need to be able to present yourself in a way that appeals to many. However, you need to understand that when I say appeal, I’m referring to the different ways you need to present yourself. There is that office appeal, there is the home appeal, and there is the social circle appeal, the church, the international and so forth. You don’t have to pull off an act everyday just so you can fit into your circles. The second you start your conversation, people are watching you and listening carefully for what is coming out of you. Now for people like me, I will probably listen more to get...

What is your personality like?

-
When you s ay that someone has a "good personality" that implies they are likable, interesting and pleasant to be with.  I have often lived my life with a high belief that I ought to try and make others comfortable but quite often it is mistaken for trying to please people. This is where we lose track of the good motive and people take for granted the niceness presented before them. In the industry that I currently work in, it is very important to establish relationships with people. Once you establish the relationship, retention of the clients is a no brainer. The one thing I am sure of about social connection is that there is value addition that will be a constant at all times even when events go sour. Once you have something of value benefit from the other party, you will always have a reason small or big to try and make things right.  Build up on your character on a daily. Work out something that nurtures your relationship abilities. Aim at listening to peopl...
