UNDERACHIEVER'S SECRET PART 2. (The truth you need to set you free from Mediocrity) by Ijeoma Esther Ogbuka.

"Ola is one of those ladies described as being born with silver spoon.
Her father, a great magnate and political juggernaut has a
questionable destructive devotion to political affairs. His strings of
wealth is so massive like erythrocytes constantly produced in the bone
marrow. He's so successful that his fame spread abroad. Unfortunately,
his daughter, Ola happened not to acquire that tactful,
able-to-conquer aspect of him. She's too docile, overly malleable. Her
father often scold her, expressing his dissatisfaction over her
tractable behaviour. 'We live in a harsh world full of villains.
Softness puts you at the mercy of people around you, Build your mind
and control your emotion. The rain of advices showered by his father
failed on deaf ears. Having gotten a high second class upper division
degree, she has achieved the greatest thing she can ever work hard
for. She doesn't need further studies nor professional qualifications.

After four years of working in her father's company, he summoned her
to obtain her Master's degree which Ola bluntly refused. She's an only
child with heaven right there in her room. What more could she ever
ask for. Having persisted the much he could, her father gave up with
his pesterings. All she yearns for is a blissful marriage...meeting
the Prince charming who will love her forever. Desperate as she was,
her love web caught Dennis, an oil tycoon. He's all she has ever
prayed for. They soon had a grandiloquent wedding which attracted
thousands of expensive gifts. Her marriage indeed was blessed as the
enjoyed conjugal bliss.

Their son's two years old birthday brought so much joy and laughter to
the two years old marriage. Being onshore for weeks, Dennis came
offshore so as to celebrate his son's birthday with his darling wife.
He never knew his son's birthday happens to be his own death day as
several bullets were shot into his handsome trunk. The news of his
assassination shattered Ola. It sounded incredible. All her childhood
dreams has always been...husband,marriage, and family. Where will she
start? Soon, she took solace in alcohol and drugs. Her addiction grew
from bad to worse till her father took her son away from her.

We have millions of people who live one day at a time....no purpose,
no vision, no ambition, no goals, no plans. They always quote" do not
think about tomorrow" forgetting the same scripture says" he that
builds a house should sit first and count the cost". Be you from the
richest of homes or the poorest of families, life without vision means
you will live without ambition.

"Only the vision-barren feels comfortable in an atmosphere of societal
pity"...Esther Ogbuka.

The world is tough and only the tough survives. Being at the mercy of
others poses a great threat to your destiny. Visionless/purposeless
life is the second underarchiever's secret. Write the vision, make it
plain, that you may run and not faint.

FACTS ABOUT THE HYMEN AND VIRGINITY

A virgin is a person who has never had any form of sexual intercourse before being it *penovaginal, anal or oral SEX* ....period! Couple of years back, in order to encourage people who have had sex before to abstain, the term *secondary virginity* was introduced. *Hymen*: _is a thin membrane that partly covers the vagina. There are different types of hymen and some can even cover the vagina entirely (imperforated)._ Unfortunately, a lot of people use the presence or absence of the hymen to determine a female's virginity. That can be very deceptive because there are so many ladies out there without their hymen but have never had sex before. Sadly, they are expected to bleed on their first sexual intercourse and if it doesn't happen, then it means they told a lie. This controversy has gone on for decades and still going on. A lot of boyfriends and husbands have all lost trust for their partners due to this issue of virginity. _Is there anything which determines that...

I AM A MAN!!!... SO WHAT? ( The silent Agony of the male folks)

Ladies always think the society and every force that be works alternatively for most of their misfortune. In a world where both genders expected to complement each other are busy pointing accusing fingers, women especially think they're rare specie more than the male folks and no one have ever taken a single minute to consider what men pass through daily, simply because they don't complain. Men suffer in silence unlike women that makes noise, shout and scream at just a slightest of pain. Its never easy to be a man. Viewing through their lens, I concur to the fact that God foresaw a lot ahead and purposely gave men the power to dominant because they're the best fit for that role. 1.Because I am a man, I always have to make the first move in almost everything because that's what's expected of me at every point in time. Once I fail in taking the first step which I'm unsure of what the outcome will be, I'm tagged a weakling, a coward and a woman simply becaus...

Virus...A lesson from the movie "3 idiots".

If you haven't seen the celebrated Bollywood "3 idiots"... I rest my case. For those of us that deemed it necessary to see a movie that could teach one more about friendship and true education than anything else can, I like to invite us to take a closer look at one of the characters of that groundbreaking movie. Not Rancho. Virus. If one were asked to draw up a list of lessons gleaned from the Rancho character, I believe that the list will be endless. The reason is not farfetched: in him is no guile; he is a perfect human being in every sense of that word. What about Virus? Everything was wrong with the man. For driving his own son to suicide, his daughter Pia accused him of murder. For driving his student, Joy Lobo, to suicide, Rancho accused him of murder. In one word, he was the Hitler of Imperial College of Engineering, ICE. While we take Virus for an undesirable element, we shouldn't forget to imbibe the one thing that was great about him: Time management...

WOMEN: WHAT WE FEAR MOST ABOUT MARRIAGE...

Its really amazing how 'we' ladies fear the possibility of remaining unmarried for a long time stretching into our late twenties and thirties. I have seen countless number of spinsters visit many prayer houses to seek spiritual guide and advice just to be a Mrs and while so many will quickly come out to say they are unperturbed while deep inside of them they hope that they just find the “right man” fast enough and start raising a family before reaching their menopause age. Watching your friends marry and start raising her kids can cause anxiety at times in an unmarried woman....Yes, that's the truth. You feel as though you are wasting your time and running out of patience. We need to understand life isn't a competition as no one was born exactly the same second as we were born. Not every woman is destined for early marriage. Even when suitors starts coming for your hand in marriage in your teen years, it's still not a guarantee for early marriage as no one know...

SOUL TIES ( Sexual bonds).

SEX is a Spiritual bond (Soul tie) How many men's/women's souls do you have inside of you? Every person you sleep with leaves a part of themselves with you. Some of us think sex is for fun but you don't know that sex out of marriage is the greatest covenant that you can ever think of, Sexually transmitted demons are not something to play with and are harder to get rid of than diseases!!!! Soul ties are more powerful than you think. The right mate for you will PRAY on your soul not PREY on it. Women, God made u to be protected by your husband's and sex makes you feel married, even though you aren't. Sex is a spiritual bond because of the connection made during love making. Do you ever wonder what your soul looks like to GOD? Sex does more to the body than the eyes can see. Be careful who and what you allow your soul to tie to!!! This picture touched me. Think about it.

MALE MORNING ERECTION (What Men and ladies needs to know) PART 1

I am writing about Male morning erection today. Don't be amazed, it's my job to relate the right information to you without any form of misdirection. I got a lot of questions from my beloved readers on one of the topics we discussed earlier "WHY HAVE SORE NIPPLES? Part 1 & 2" .I was delighted as we sorted issues out in my Facebook mailbox. Many young men, and even some older ones who haven’t found the right people to ask, are curious about morning erections. Most people who have a penis have the experience, with some regularity, of waking up in the morning with an erection. What Is A Morning Erection? Morning erections, colloquially referred to as "morning wood" and scientifically defined as nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT) are a healthy and predictable physiological response that most men experience. Morning erections would be better described as the tail end of a series of nighttime erections, as they are just the last erection in a series. ...

I WONDER HOW THIS WORLD WILL BE WITHOUT MEN.

Are you stunned at the fact that a woman is writing in favour of the male folks? You need not be dazed nor gripped in a faze as I solve this jigsaw puzzle. I chose to begin this way, Man, unlike woman, is beautiful, because man, unlike woman, is a thinking creature. This means,Man has a thirst for knowledge (he wants to know what the world around him looks like and how it functions). Man thinks (he draws conclusions from the data he encounters). Man is creative (he makes something new out of the information achieved by the above processes). Man is sensitive (as a result of his exceptionally wide, multidimensional emotional scale, he not only registers the commonplace in fine gradations but he creates and discovers new emotional values and makes them accessible to others through sensible descriptions, or recreates them as an artist). Of all the qualities of man, which I can't exhaust, his curiosity is certainly the most impressive. His curiosity differs basically...

THE PASTOR'S WIFE ( Episode 1).

That morning, my husband David came to pick me at the airport. He was dry faced and tensed, very unusual. Other times, David would be so excited to come pick me, he would kiss me and hug me passionately, but now, everything became different. "You kept me waiting for hours in there." I said, gazing angrily at him. "Don't tell me it's traffic honey, today is Saturday." "I am sorry, I had to pick the kids from summer lessons, and then rush to church to counsel a few couples."He said soothingly. "you now prepare the kids for school, What happened to Ifeoma? she is the kids nanny." "And you are the Kids mom!" He Screamed suddenly. "you've been away from your family for 5months Ekom, the kids don't even talk about you anymore." David deliberately slowed his breathing in a bid to calm himself down. I was silent for a while. my lips quivered, but David ignored that he saw tears glistening in my eyes...
