The Unfriendly friends
I listened to a radio program and it got me thinking 🤔🤔 The anchor spoke about friends... "Beware of the type of friends you keep. Do not make friends with unfriendly people. They will harm you" Speaking of unfriendly people, it doesn't mean people with bad temper or people that always wear a frown or the arrogant ones. It actually means people that looks friendly on the surface but actually want your downfall. They'd smile to your face and curse behind your back. They'd advise you in...
WHO IS YOUR ADVISOR?
Taking advice is good... In fact, it's the one of best things when making decisions. However, who do you take advices from?? First, you need to understand that there are different kinds of people... 📌 The smiling foxes : they'd hold a dagger behind their bright smile and speak so animatedly that you will think they have your best interest in mind. However, deep down all they want is your downfall. What kind of advice do you think such a person can give you? Unfortunately, their intention...
Tricky Words
Words can be very tricky... What your writing mean may be different from how it's interpreted 🤷🤷 For example, a mother hit her daughter because she was drunk... To interpret this... many people will interpret it as the mother being drunk, while other will take the daughter as the drunk one. Hence, it is very important to ask for explanations rather than making deductions. This can cause numerous misunderstanding. #HelloNircle #Nirclenotes
SO DARK!!!
I once disdained light, Complained that it was too bright. The sun stung my eyes, And I'd become irritated. A flashlight would irk me, Yet I'd spend hours on phone, Watched movies nonstop, With my phone at it's brightest. Then I woke up one day, To find everywhere black, I was so terrified of the dark. Searched high and low, But I could not find the light. The sun rose as usual, I could feel its scorch on my skin, Yet my eyes was not stung. I tried to look at the sky, But it was still dark...
I'm Confused
My heart is in turmoil, headache makes me frown and irritable because I'm confused... On one hand, I wished to be a low-key and successful person. And on the other hand, I wished to be known by all... However, I realised that no matter how hard I tried, I never achieved both. Honestly, I did not actively pursue fame, but a corner of my heart yearn for it. But I actively worked towards success, yet I never reach it... Why? 😭😭
GIVING ALMS IN ANGER
* Má fi ìbínú na owó àánú (do not give alms in anger) Giving alms has always been a form of charity, a way to help out the needy. However, it has to be noted that no one wishes to be in the category of the needy, but they needs to survive anyway. It is not compulsory to give alms, but doing it is a good choice because it helps others and also accumulate good Karma for you. But do not give alms in anger!!! Charity is not by force. Giving alms in anger means that you're forcing yourse...
REGRET AND AGING
It seems 'Regret' and 'Aging' are directly proportional 🟰🟰🟰🟰... No matter how accomplished you are in life, there will always be a thread of Regret. A poor man would probably regret that despite how hard he worked, he was not fortunate to become rich. While a Rich man would probably regret that his life had been too easy, he would yearn for the live of an average man. WHAT AN IRONY!! A workaholic would regret not spending some time on leisure. While the outgoing person would wish...
TRICKED BY AN IMP
It's been over a decade, yet when I looked back to those days, I could not help thinking that childhood was the best stage in human life; no complicated thoughts or desires, it was all about innocence. I could not help laughing whenever I remembered some of those funny moments. There was one I really found intriguing so I named it "TRICKED BY AN IMP" My family lived in one of the bustling areas in Ibadan. Day and night were only distinguished by darkness or sunlight, other than that, people we...
THE INNOCENCE WE HAD
Once upon a time, we had bright eyes, that shone like morning dew Our hearts free from dirts The laughter echoed clearly Like a ringing bell For every household, there's unbridled joy. But time flew like a plane taking with it our innocence A clear heart became heavy Burdened with worries and fear Then uncertainties set in Leaving behind a confused mind The loud laughter restrained Turning to a faint smile Yet within, a glimmer remains, the hope of joy we had Deep down, the memories ne...
