Society and one of its ills

Image
By


This post started off as a rant, but then I decided why just rant? Critic the ill, but also share lessons you’ve amassed overtime. Remember, this month is the month of purpose, why rant and not have a purpose?

I usually say, ‘everyone has an opinion, all it takes to be swayed to the other side – is good argument. Daz all!

I can start a movement on ‘School should be optional, because these days an individual can ‘’blow’’ without the four walls of a classroom’, yes I’ll have followers, but then TeamEducationForAll would rise and protest with their POV, and then the debate would begin. *yawn* it is an endless vicious cycle.

Today’s rant is all about Single. Singleness. Single persons. Single not in a relationship.

Who dictates social media? People! Societies are made of people. It is funny that social media has a way of dragging one down ehn, but then again, its social media, we still need her (yes, social media is female), ironically I read three different articles that day, three! All highlighting this issue of singleness. What a wawu! 


That’s why I was angry, but then again, perhaps my phone is actually smart because once I read the first article, it suggested the next, then the next. So, lets blame this rant on my phone. Lol.

The first was BankyW'sComebackToAFan who asked ‘Where is your ring?’ (okay, yes, this individual was obviously being nosey and perhaps silly, but come on, that comeback was unnecessary) he responded with ‘where is your husband?’ and everyone began to cheer him. *ayam confused*

The next article was from BusinessInsiderByPulse, I was shook; well, it is for enlightenment, (at least now I know what happens in Denmark when you are 25 and unmarried) but people are deep sha.

The third was from PunchNG, okay, that one was a tad hilarious because I was like ‘hian oh! Odikwa very serious for this single stigma’.


On a more serious note, society has termed the single phase ‘negative’. Which is why I am going to begin a series on the topic. So, yeah, watch this space!

Part 2

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
