Friendship ❤️
I told someone I am always bad at making friends... He felt I was talking cos I felt people around me are less.. but the truth of the matter is that from my personal experience, most people I call friends do more harm than good.. I dnt know if it's because I expect more ahbi less or because I easily give up whatever makes me happy just for peace to reign between us but the end result is always bad...
Guess what?
I took a break from pleasing others... I learnt to count myself and peace of mind first... I learnt to love my self more and I understood how I am supposed to be loved... I understood how best to return a given energy.. and it has been working..

Dear king and queen ❤️
You are priceless and unique.. nobody has the right to treat you less... Love yourself, understand that you are the best version of you and keep the love real..
Shalom 💕💕

Hey guys🤩🤩...
I can only tell you that my life is a testimony itself...there was a time I use to pray for everything I have now... It got to a time that I totally believed that succeeding in life is an impossible factor in my life... My light so dimmed that I never believed it was possible to escape the prison in my head... But one thing I never lacked was LOVE... From family, frnds.. all around me even from unknown persons. It helped me scale through.. I'm so happy that this is something I can laugh over now...
I dnt know the stage of life you are right now, just be strong, hold on to whatever supreme being you believe in... I'm sending my hugs of love to you... Just believe with me that this phase too will pass

Loads of Love 💋
Few days to +1
I'm forever grateful

Managing a school on the island and on the mainland isn’t the same thing. It’s a whole lot of different experience and with the little I’ve encountered, please I am begging you, it is NOT necessary to have a child. It is NOT.

When you decide to have a child, please be intentional about parenting! Be available to be a parent. Please.

The rate at which so many of you are raising dark children is alarming. Very alarming. Please don’t ask me what a dark child means.

I am singing this thing as a song, NEVER get pregnant if you’re not mentally, emotionally and financially ready for that child. Do not try such.

I wish I can always narrate my experience as a school director but 9 out of 10 times I’m always drowned in emotions.

If you see what these children go through you’d cry for them. So many children are empty. So many children do not know what love is especially parental love. So many children are depressed and mentally exhausted.

If you visit primary boarding schools or even secondary boarding schools, you’d see children that have been practically “abandoned”. These are kids that most of them started the boarding school as toddlers. You’d keep your children in a boarding house from their primary age down to secondary.

Or is it those parents that are not available for the kids? You can’t do assignments with them, no bedtime gists, no daytime gists, no family prayers, no family gatherings or events, nothing! These kids are just blank! Next thing you entrust them into the hands of strangers and they get abused! Many of you even leave these kids to survive on their own.

Children these days are having rapid growth. A child of 8yrs is already growing breasts and using pad. Many parents can’t even take care of them. They can’t even teach them how to use a pad considering the fact that they’re still children! Parents can’t even teach these kids hygiene.

The rate at which we have so many bullies in school, if you investigate and check well, they lack parental love. These kids end up as bullies cos they’re lonely. They ha te to see other kids happy and since misery loves company, they rather bully.

Again, before having a child please be intentional about it! Settle well before entering that phase. I don’t know why any child should suffer for your poor decisions. You people just bring children to suffer for nothing. Can’t you use a condom? Can’t you ask the man to withdraw? Can’t you take something after sec to flush?

You people are just giving school teachers a heavy load to handle. Imagine handling 25 kids in a class with different characters and backgrounds. When we bill you, you’ll complain that school fees is expensive but you forget that you’re giving us a heavy job to handle from 6am till 7pm.

Having a child is NOT necessary. Avoid it if you can.

You single ladies who keep getting pregnant for whatever reasons, can you people please slow down? Worst is how you get pregnant for irresponsible men. Stop it!

You can actually protect yourself from being a single mother. It’s doable. Avoid it! Don’t try it! Unless you’re comfortable enough to be an intentional parent.

I pray you all will hear cos I know many of you will read this and still have unprotected s*x this evening.

Have a nice day
