So I hear a lot of people say Josephine is always on her own, "she's too quiet" or perhaps rude and it goes on and on like that. Well as much as this happens, I Know what human relationship serves and I do well to recognize that fact in my day-to-day run but one thing- I'm always very careful. Ask me how? I love meeting new people and getting to relate but in all of them, I select the ones I call my friends. And hey, I'm not being proud or selective or which ever word you can use for that. I am just being cautious. Most people see friends as not just people you interact with, but as a family too and I can say I fall in that category. I so much value the word "friendship" with great consciousness that I feel if we're friends there should be this sort of sacrifice between. I call it the Double R- Respect and Responsibility. You are to RESPECT each other's person and thoughts and are RESPONSIBLE to each other. When once you lack this, be...

I so much love it when I go out and I meet beautiful, respectable, money- making personalities and I get so carried away listening to their explicit accent and watching their glorious steps. I immediately whisper to myself that is going to be me.  But the truth is, behind the big smile and fame, there have been sleepless nights, all- day labours and even most times, deprivation. That is something I found so hard to realize. My mum never stops singing to us that this life, every success comes with labour. Even a thief has to sit and plan well if not he won't succeed. It use to sound funny but on a later run have come to realize that it's true. A lot of people know I write, but sometimes it's not just about the pen, most of the time I faulter. When I pick up the pen to write and I suddenly lost inspiration, fine then I decide to just read but yet again no interest. The lazy me starts thinking of the pain in sitting to write or read, looking for the right words or ...

All through the passage of time, women have always been viewed as the weaker vessel. Gender-based violence including rape and other sexual assualts have assumed a critical dimension on us as women globally. So perculiar is this culture of sexual violence against women that it is gradually woven into the very fabrics of our existence. Spreading like a wild fire into all spheres of life like, the home, school, workplace, hospital, and so unfortunately it doesn't exclude the church- the very place to which we run to seek refuge.  The progress of a country can be drastically hindered by this endemic case backed by the religious and cultural sentiments of male dominance and supremacy. How sad it is that woman grows to live with the high possibility of rape, being reminded at every point in time that as a woman any man who is physically strong enough can decide to demonstrate his authority by way of sexual violence. In the church she is taught to bow h...

Knowledge stands questionable without a good character and with that, you loose the power attained. It is therefore an attested fact that despite the knowledge someone acquires, once you fail in character you've failed in all.  The world invoke does not expect let's say a well seasoned individual of the medical field to miss out on a vital information or mistake them, that would be jeopardizing someone's life. Neither can we compliment an acclaimed certified lawyer of outstanding repute who tends to exhibit irresponsibility in words and actions. Obviously there are many professions, so it is therefore Worthy to note that this principle is attached to all. Off course no one is perfect, but we should try as much as possible to bring out the best of our characters making sure that what ever we do or say defends our personality positively. In essence,  I, You, We The Doctors The Lawyers The Engineers The Journalists The Architects Even The Teachers All graduates of ...

That is to say, that what you spend time thinking about about and doing everyday, ultimately forms the person you are and the personality you portray. This things sumed together are called Habits.
