Here are Part 1 and Part 2

Part 3:Relationships

Most times the term 'relationship' is associated with dating; (layman terms 'going out') not that its not part of the definition.- A sexual or romantic involvement.
Relationship can mean being related by blood or a way in which two or more people behave and are involved with each other.

I guess my focus on this post is friendship (which can lead to romantic involvement, how many people aren't 'friends' and are 'dating?'. My opinion is that the starting point is friendship. I believe that relationships which start out with friendships are the best and actually last longer. (not some mediocre type of friendship oh biko. lol)

Some people are in very toxic relationships; Tyrese type of situation 'every time I try to leave something keeps pulling me back' hehe
Proverbs 4:23 according to the Message says "keep vigilant watch over your heart; that's where life starts" simply says don't just let anyone mess with your emotions; be they platonic or romantic

Some have actually tried to get out, and like Nathaniel sang 'its not by power or by might'. Some of them might even be under a spell and not even know. 

I remember some time ago I was "heart broken" lol, I was very sad, I even think that was my Gothic/emo phase *covers face*. Anyways I remember praying one afternoon, (like I was talking to my friend) and I said "I'm tired of feeling this way, please just take away my hurt Lord Jesus", to be honest I would be lying if I said immediately I felt lighter lol, it took a while (probably like 3 weeks). Like the saying "time heals" I added "Jesus heals" = Jesus and Time Heals. 

If you are honest with yourself, you'll know when you are in a toxic relationship. Just take that relationship to God. Whether its a good or toxic relationship He's interested.
God bless you.

With love, theInspiredCutiee 

See you next Tuesday for the final part.

If you missed Part 1, here is the link: http://theinspiredcutiee.blogspot.com.ng/2015/10/part-1.html#more Part 2: Habit A habit is something done repeatedly sometimes sometimes unconsciously. 40% of everything we do is done merely from habit. Experts say that a habit can be broken or formed in 30 days. I have bad habits, (cell phone addiction, PROCRASTINATION) some I don't even know how I'll be if I stop,(watching too much series) some I have stopped, (I used to suck my lower lip) and I'm sure you too have some habits that are bad. No judgment, habits form us, its when they are bad that it becomes a problem. Breaking a habit can seem overwhelming, especially when you have more than one. Choose a single habit and work on that until you are victorious before you pick up another one. Lemme share a classic example, I began to exercise daily few weeks ago, normal body pains are expected, but me I stopped.  I couldn't deal. On Saturday 24th October I

End It?

By
I love the series 'How To Get Away With Murder' not necessarily because of its name or its characters or storyline but because I love very good series scripts and the above is definitely on my top ten list. I'm not about to rave about the series, lol, (you can go online, download it or go to the nearest DVD retail outlet and 'grab your copy now') but to talk about the advice Annalise Keating (played by Viola Davis) gave to Nate's Wife - Nia Lahey (who is dying of ovarian cancer in the show) Here's an excerpt from the episode: Nia: I want you to end it Annalise: I'm sorry? Nia: I want you to kill me Then after so much consideration and guilty conscience, here is how it went down: Annalise: I think about it a lot; killing myself, I have ever since I was a child, lot of times I think the world would be a much better place without me in it, but I don't do it. You are a better woman than me, and if I don't deserve to die then you definitel

Part 1

In one of his songs, Nathaniel Bassey described Zechariah 4:6 (Not by power, not by might, but by my Spirit; saith the Lord) as thus; So many of us have tried to fight addiction in the flesh, you've tried to stop that habit, you've tried to get out of that relationship, you've tried to break through, you've tried will power BUT its not by power not by might but by my Sprit saith the Lord. Hence the kick off of the series, (they don't follow each other in the traditional sense of series, think of it like American Horror Story Series) Part 1: ADDICTION Dictionary dot com defines it as the state of being enslaved to a habit, or practice or to something that is physiologically or physical habit-forming as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. A couple of months back, my brother and I were arguing over 'habit' 'addiction' and 'obsession', which comes first?, which is difficult to break? and so much more. Can
