LIFE’S LESSON THAT IS NEVER LEARNED


There is a lesson that life keeps teaching us, one that is presented whenever anyone rises from mediocrity to relevance and from poverty to opulence, but people never learn it. It is the lesson of never writing people off.

Being one student of life, I have watched life repeat this lesson over and over again but even those that sing it finds it hard to learn the lesson – they only pay lips service to it and use it to mock another victim of it.

It seems in fact as if the hardest thing for the majority of people to do is to show faith in people who are not yet up. Many people give up on others even if they know that the person is only one minute away from opulence. They will never believe it until they can see results.

This phenomenon forced me to learn about the cause most carefully. I have now found the cause to be a lack of faith in self. It is simply impossible for anyone to have faith in another person without first having faith in him/herself.

Being one instructor in the realm of self-development, I find it hard to give up on people, and at some points, I began to think it was a weakness.  However, in my course of studying why people often give up on people despite life's continuous lessons, I realized it was because I do not give up on myself either.

This made me understand that giving up on people is a reflection of a lack of faith in oneself. Those that give up on people have given up on themselves more times than can be counted. They just cannot give what they don't have.

A lot of people may deny giving up on people, but most people do without knowing they do because it is in the subconscious mind. The most prevalent part of giving up on people is the refusal to help them when what they do shows no promises yet.

If those people breakthrough, you will certainly secretly wish you have supported them, but you may be too embarrassed to admit why you did not help them when they needed your help. The reason was that you lacked faith in yourself in some ways, which made you give up on them without knowing you did.

Now run a test on yourself, retrospect how many people have asked you for help that would have cost you nothing to render, but that you refused to render. If you are sincere with yourself, you will find out it was because you gave up on them. You saw supporting them as a pure waste.

If those persons made it, you would have wished you helped. Why not support now when you can? You cannot always judge people by those things they do that does not make sense to you. There is always the other side that you are not seeing. In life, there is no absoluteness.

POEM 1 And Divinity Wept Love I marvel how Divinity could ever demonstrate love A love for humanity so pure as pure as a dove: In his love was love and a love void of lust, For on the cross he bled and suffered to save the lost. He considered not the affliction and pain For with his suffering comes great gain; With his blood the sin of mankind was cleansed As perfect redemption was made that heavens may be appeased. He was the precious lamb sent to save the world, And redeem man from a life of mod; His love was divine and so he died for man to find peace; That by his death man's suffering may cease. His death brought freedom and gave man hope Of eternity and a hope for a heavenly robe, Though his suffering and agony was grave Yet he loved man so much that his life he gave. His heart of love made him endure the cross, For he died that he may redeem man from loss; Being divine his blood made man as pure as a dove Even in death, still in his heart was love....

THE RUDIMENTS OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

Image
Let ’ s start by knowing what we call Communication. COMMUNICATION As food and water is crucial to human survival, so does Communication. Communication pervades every human activity, man cannot do without it. We are engrossed in it from the time we wake up in the morning until we go back to bed in the night; from birth to death we are in perpetual state of communication. It is a phenomenon that cuts across the daily activities of human beings. In fact, the pervasive nature of communication makes it impossible for us to ever refuse to communicate as long as we are living. Hence, the axiom; “ we cannot not communicate ” comes into place. In view of the above, one will see that communication is very important to man. It is a cord that binds every part of the society together. Human activities and achievements have relationship with communication whether one expresses himself verbally or through non-verbal means, even when a man is presumed silent, he is in a way ...

Talking about virginity to some people, you are indirectly talking about holiness, but have we ever tried to ask what the differences are? Does virginity have anything to do with holiness? Maybe we just don’t define them rightly. Now let’s define them. According to Oxford Dictionary, holy from which holiness is derived are defined as follows: 1. Morally and spiritually excellent or perfect, and to be revered. 2. Belonging to or devoted to God. 3. consecrated, sacred. [Old English: related to *whole] Let’s talk the meaning of virginity just as well. Virginity means remaining a virgin and according to Oxford Dictionary virgin is defined as follows: 1. Person who has never had sexual intercourse. 2. (The Virgin) Christ's mother Mary. 3. (The Virgin) sign or constellation Virgo. —adj. 1 not yet used etc. 2. Virginal.
