Cry out

 Faith stared into the blank space, everywhere was dark and it felt so alone. she was very scared where she was, she sat down on the floor and looked around her hoping to see a way out but she could not see anything. Nothing was visible as everything was dark, she sat for a while and cried within her. Her tears flowed but it was not from her eyes, it was from somewhere within. She wanted to cry for help but she could not find her voice. A lot of things went on within her, a lot of thoughts flowed through her mind, she thought of her actions and inactions over the past years, she wished she was never born at the end of the day.  Suddenly, she saw a way out, she knew it was not the best way out but it was a better way out. It was better than the misery she felt, there was no way out of the darkness, the only way out was that way. She walked towards the path she saw, the more she went deeper into it, the more everything felt better. She continued walking down the unknown path, she did not

START NOW

“You can not escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today” Abraham Lincoln Start now! I will do it later. Not yet time. It would be tomorrow. There is still a lot of time. What you think is far is already around the corner. Until you start living a life free of procrastination, you would not go far in life.  What do you want to do? Start now ! Stop procrastinating and STOP  saying later .  Now is the right time to start. At the beginning of the year, people normally write new year resolutions and new year goals that they wish to achieve. The major thing that debars them from achieving these goals is procrastination. This is a disease that has killed the dreams of many and it is still killing it.  People that procrastinate always feel they have time, they wait till it is very close to the deadline only to do it wrong or not at all.  Start now!  Oh! I want to make an A grade in school then you

Overcoming Depression (A true life story)

Take my life (a story on depression and pressing on) It was a beautiful day, it was not like any other day, I had just received the good news. My results were out, I was sure I would make all my papers…… why won’t I? After reading all day and burning the midnight candle, praying before and after every exam,  there was nothing that could hold me back from making my papers in the external exam. I was the best in my school even though I was from a ‘not rich’ home, I got a scholarship to Trinity high and that was where I started and finished my primary and secondary education. On getting  to school, I  noticed that everyone was looking at me in a way that was weird. My biology teacher hugged me when she saw me, she told me life happened sometimes. I didn’t understand but she was not ready to explain to me. I went to the principal's office and after knocking, she asked me to enter. She asked me to sit down and I sat down beaming with smiles. “Jane Dear, things happen in life

2019 GOALS

2019 goals E very New Year, a lot of people make lists of all the things that they would love to do in the year and those things they would not want to do. Some call it resolutions, goals and other names. However, not everyone is able to fulfill or accomplish even half of these set goals. The reason is setting goals is easier than accomplishing goals itself. The question is how do I set my goals and accomplish these goals? While some cannot set goals because they believe in chances, we have some that can set goals but are not very good in living up to it. I remember in the beginning of year 2016, I set a lot of goals for myself but I was not able to accomplish all of it by the time the year was over and when I sat down, I discovered that accomplishment of goals is more than just writing these goals. The principles that would be listed below would help you to set and accomplish your goals for year 2019. You don’t have to set goals that you don’t have passion for. Set go

FRIENDS ARE IN SEASONS

Friends are in seasons  There will always be reasons  For a cease in the liaison  Appreciate the friends that stay  Even when there's no play.  And no light on the way.  Friends that would guide you Love you  Appreciate you And respect you.  Such friends are rare They might just look mere  But in the heart is a care to share. ..  Written by Temiloluwa Abiola  08105974693 x
