Even as I’m typing this, I feel irritated because I’m in a noisy environment. I’m just tryna keep my cool, and can’t wait to get out of this place.
Anyways, here are my Top Three pet peeves:-
Noise:- Noisy people. Noisy environment. These I hate to the core. It gives me this discomfort that anger begin to build from within and then, explode! Many a times, I try to hold myself whenever I’m in a noisy place or with lousy people. But, sometimes, I just flare up and shut the hëck of their mouths up. It’s annoying.
Talkativeness:- Gosh! I hate this one too. You keep.talking and talking and talking. Like I do wonder, at times, how these people do it? How do they do it? How do they talk for hours without even feeling it. Poor mouths of theirs! They be crying for help.
A dirty environment:- I have seen posts on this topic that this very point was mentioned. It’s true. Who likes a dirty environment? Medically, emotionally, spiritually and everything-ally, it’s harmful.
Happy new month, my lovelies🤩🤩!! All thanks be unto God for bringing us into the month of April. We thank God for life. We thank God for grace and mercy. Oh! Lest I forget, April is my birth month😁(but I won’t disclose the date to you yet🤪). But to be sincere, I was really in […]
I always tell people who cares to listen that it is not easy to be a female. One of it is this menstruation of a thing. The stress of packing up isn’t just for some of us, but we have learnt to accept it that way.😂
Research has it that about 90% of women experience cramps (otherwise known as dysmenorrhea) when on periods.
Sometimes ago when I was still a newbie in the system, I was like “can’t it just show its face yearly?” cos the cramps was frustrating and I always flare up everywhere in the house. 😩😤
My aunt who is a nurse got to know about my cramps and gave me some drugs to alleviate the pain. Funny enough, I hardly use drugs because I detest them.
After a long period of time, I decided to make a research on what could be done to relieve cramps, apart from drugs. Then, i found out some home remedies for cramps, and I thought it wise to share some of them to you.
So, ladies, pay attention and read to end 😌:
1. Apply heat: This is done by placing heating pad or a portable hot water flask to your lower abdomen.
Heating pad relieves aches, pains, cramps and muscle inflexibility. (Available on Amazon.com, Jumia and the likes)
Alternatively, you can take a hot bath. However, the heat must not be extreme so as not to cause discomfort.
2. Abstain from junky treats: Chocolate bars, ice-creams, yoghurts and the likes are sweet but worsen cramps.
3. Instead of carbonated drinks, try herbal teas like ginger tea, cinnamon tea, thyme tea, etc. They reduce cramps too.
For ginger tea, you can drink it for three consecutive days before your menstrual period. You will realise that you feel less or no pain at all, and will be able to do your normal activities with ease.
4. Avoid spicy foods: Spicy foods burn and hurt our mouths, but also aggravate cramps. Try eating fruits like bananas, lemons, watermelons.
PS: When on periods, do not eat cucumber for its saps block the blood from flowing.
5. Engage in less-stressful activities.
6. Yoga and meditation help too. You’ll feel relaxed and serene. If you don’t believe me, a trial or two will convince you.
Hope you get them all?
Start putting all these home remedies into practice now, so as to have a cramp-free period henceforth.

Hello guyssssssss!!! Welcome back to my blog site!!! *chuckles excitedly*
My apologies for deserting y’all here. A lot has been going on that almost costly life but all thanks to my Heavenly Father who has always been my Guide.
ASUU & FG has been performing some dramas that I am yet to understand. The tertiary education of the country is wrecking day by day, and sure enough it’s only prayers and wisdom can uphold the pillars.
P. S:- For the foreigners, ASUU stands for Academic Staff Union of Universities; while FG stands for Federal Government.
There are times whereby I would feel frustrated, depressed and all…and BOOM! The Holy Spirit cheers me up and fills my heart with joy.
Breaking limits, creating innovations…and lots and lots of things I can’t even mention.
By the way, something ‘hooge’ is about to unleash. Until then, please do well to anticipate as well as to pray.
So, what about you? Tell me what you have been engaging in lately?
Hello and welcome back to my blog site!!! How have you all been? Hope you guys had fun on the 14th? If you do, you have to tell me the gist after reading through this. Got it?? 😃😃
Alright…back to today’s topic.
Before I dive in, I would like to say this that I’m not trying to sound as a feminist here or whatever. I’m here to charge us, ladies, up. Okay?
So…
This life, na everybody dey hustle o. Everybody—whether rich or poor—hustles. In fact, I really commend people—including my friends—who are orphans and whose father or mother is dead, striving hard in order to be successful in life.
As a lady or as ladies, you ought to be at least 70% independent in all your endeavors. Okay, some people would be like “what does she mean?” Now, don’t try to misinterpret or misunderstand my sentence.
You can’t be totally independent as you’d SO MUCH need God’s help and also the help of your fellow beings. Hope you understand? So, you no be superhuman.
Now, that I have enlightened us a bit on that, we move onto the main part of the topic.
THE REASONS;
1. You’d earn respect among your folks and gain more confidence:- You sit on that comfy executive chair in a fully air conditioned room, millions of staffs who give daily accounts of huge sums of money your OWN company earns. Mehn! The confidence and high esteem will so much be for you.
2. Good, successful and independent men would want to marry you:- Some ladies would be blushing now😅, but that’s just the fact. As I’d say “behind a successful woman, there is a successful man”.
No man, nowadays, wants to marry a lazy lady/woman.
3. It has to be a LEGACY from generation to generation:- Just like in a relay race, you pass the “baton” to your children, and your children unto theirs.

So, that’s all. If you have any contribution or any question, you can drop it in the comment section. Also, like this post if it’s helpful to you and share to your friends—ladies,especially.🤗
Wooopssss… 2021 has been ‘this’ and ‘that’ for each and every one of us, and … Challenges here and there. Successes here and there.
Personally and collectively, I grew and learn lots of things. I gained more knowledge and more understanding about many things. I believe you grew too.
Here we are in 2022. I believe we’d GROW more. We’d DO more. The eyes of our hearts will be more enlightened this year.
By now, 70% of us would have our plans written down.
I pray God will help us and give us the grace to be consistent in all our doings.
For me, I know I haven’t been consistent in dropping posts here. Na school work cause am. 😑
People say “promise is a debt“. So, I can’t promise that I will show up here from time to time.
I gotta go now but I’ll leave these friendly reminders with you; 🤗
Make God the epicentre of your decision making.
Be good to everyone.
Trust no one, but God and yourself.
Don’t be little anyone—even their abilities.
Think BIG, do BIG and end BIG.
Get along with godly friends…friends that will catapult you to uncommon greatness.
Oh! Lest I forget, please listen to The Sam and Ore Talk Show‘s podcast episodes by clicking the link below.
They will do some help even as you journey through the year.
Hello, my people!!! How are y’all doing? I’m back here again to give you a gist.😌
.

Wawuuuu!!!
It feels good to be back in school. Lol. Back to sleeping late and waking up early. Back to the night readings. Back to the climbing up and down of stairs. Lmaoooo.
Well, well, well, all good.
One week has passed and I’m already tired (dear Father, have mercy on Your daughter😪). The day before yesterday [that is, Tuesday], I felt kinda sick but I didn’t make it obvious, for I dislike questioning questions. Not the people. The questions.😑😂
So, lecture was going on but I wasn’t paying attention. It was as if my spirit went on a short vacation during that period. My head was pounding. My body was weakening. My heart was burning. 🔥😣
Then, the Holy Spirit showed me the scripture I studied the prev—Philippians 4:13
" I can do ALL things through Christ which strengtheneth me."
Then, I sang the verse prayerfully and I felt that divine strength in me. Oh! I was joyous.
LESSONS:-
1. Stay grounded in The Word in order to overcome every challenge that comes your way.
2. Always give ears to the Holy Spirit’s instructions. Be sensitive in the Spirit. E dey important.

So, I was told to drop these here today. Hope it blessed you? I know it did. 😁
By the way, I’m about to start a podcast show soonest, together with my “twin” brother ( I wonder what’s going on in their minds right now😅.) It’s called The Sam and Ore Talk Show. Tell a friend to tell a friend. It’s gonna be educative, interactive and fun. So, follow us on our official Instagram page @_thesamandoretalkshow. Here, you would be viewing talk show excerpts, video clips and lots more.
Till I come your way next time, it’s an adiós for now.
Yes. So, I’m back here with an interesting topic today with the title aforementioned.
Alright! Sit back and enjoy reading through!😉
*********************
So, you found yourself in a situation and you needed to take a step as soon as possible but different thoughts flooded your mind—and the capacity of your mind wasn’t able to ‘hold’ them all!
Thoughts like;
“What if it doesn’t work out?”
“What if it turns out the opposite?”
“What if I die?”
“What if…?”
…and so forth.
Hmmmm! 😌
James 1:8 says “A double minded man is unstable in his ways.”
A man whose heart and mind is filled with so much doubt, lives like a rising and falling tone. Wait😲…what did I just type?😂 Oh yes! His life is disordered and unstable.
You know, we believers, ehnnn…God will give us certain instructions on some things and then instead of executing the assignments given to us, we’d be like “God, what if it’s not so?”
Same thing applies to our prayers to God. After praying, we’d be like “what if my prayers aren’t answered?”
If we don’t know, that’s one of the major reasons our prayers aren’t answered. Doubt is really a dangerous vice!
It means we aren’t ‘stable’ of the fact that He’s Omnipotent [ which means He is powerful ] and that His capacity is beyond measure.
See, when you trust God so much, you won’t have that feeling of doubt, not even a ‘strand’! I tell you.
Hence, your stability, owing to the fact that your all, your focus and your gaze is on Him.
So, the conclusion of the matter is to do away with all the “what ifs” or better still, doubts and FOCUS on Baba God!

Words can’t even explain how I feel right now likeeeeee…
All I can just say is all thanks be unto Abba Father for His tender mercies and loving kindness upon each and every one of us.
Lots and lots had really happened since the beginning of this year 2021, but God had a been seeing us through and He will continue to do so.
Anywaysssssss, how have y’all been????
I’m sorry I have been “ghosting” myself from here. It’s not my fault actually.
School’s work here and there….we bless Jah for strength.
So, let’s talk😁😌
How have the past seven months been so far to you? Good? Great? Wonderful? 🤗
Hope you’ve listed your August plan/agenda?
If not, you gotta do it —in fact, you’d better do it, because it makes one reliable, responsible and independent….I tell you.
Okay guyssss, have a blissful, wonderful and of course GODFULL (in my papa’s tone😅) month.
…oh!!!! Guess what??? It’s my mum’s and brother’s birth month!!! This is what I call double celebration. Every blessed thing in this month is in twos for us (it’s not a prayer, but a prophetic saying).
