The basic thing nobody asks is why do people take drugs of any sort? Why do we have these accessories to normal living to live? I mean, is there something wrong with society that's making us so pressurized, that we cannot live without guarding ourselves against it?

We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world

Check this out. Its very interesting and Educative. If:
A B C D E F G H I J K LM N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is equal to;
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

Then

H+A+R+D+W+O+R+K ;
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98%

K+N+O+W+L+E+D+G+E ;
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96%

L+O+V+E;
12+15+22+5 = 54%

L+U+C+K ;
12+21+3+11 = 47%

None of them makes 100%.
Then what makes 100% ???

Is it Money?
NO !!!

M+O+N+E+Y= 13+15+14+5+25=72%

Leadership?
NO !!!

L+E+A+D+E+R+S+H+I+P= 12+5+1+4+5+18+19+8+9+16=97%

Every problem has a solution, only if we perhaps change our "ATTITUDE".

A+T+T+I+T+U+D+E ;
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

It is therefore OUR ATTITUDE towards Life and Work that makes
OUR Life 100% Successful..

“ Perhaps the greatest faculty our minds possess is the ability to cope with pain. Classic thinking teaches us of the four doors of the mind, which everyone moves through according to their need.
First is the door of sleep. Sleep offers us a retreat from the world and all its pain. Sleep marks passing time, giving us distance from the things that have hurt us. When a person is wounded they will often fall unconscious. Similarly, someone who hears traumatic news will often swoon or faint. This is the mind's way of protecting itself from pain by stepping through the first door.
Second is the door of forgetting. Some wounds are too deep to heal, or too deep to heal quickly. In addition, many memories are simply painful, and there is no healing to be done. The saying 'time heals all wounds' is false. Time heals most wounds. The rest are hidden behind this door.
Third is the door of madness. There are times when the mind is dealt such a blow it hides itself in insanity. While this may not seem beneficial, it is. There are times when reality is nothing but pain, and to escape that pain the mind must leave reality behind.
Last is the door of death. The final resort. Nothing can hurt us after we are dead, or so we have been told.

The Jews where only interested in nailing Christ then.even when Pilate wanted to give reasons for Christ not to be crucified the Chief priest then whom stand as the media houses then where hell bent on his Crucifixion. Same applied to Gej and his Government then, Falana that was against the past Government is now praising the same Government over the way it fight corruption.i have said it and I will repeat it again the SAN tittle bestowed on those guys is equivallant to a class prefect tittleship..

Just because some babes think they are 'BEAUTIFUL', and that they have intimidating figures, that is to say, SEXY LOOKING CURVES, they believe they can achieve all goals. They believe they can intimidate everybody and walk their way to the top.Should I tell you the truth? IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.
It has never even worked that way.
The most beautiful and important part of a woman are the things she has hidden, the quality she has upstairs, the things we hardly see and know about them until we draw closer, the quality of the brain.
All other things are like flowers. They fade with the speed of light. Always remember, the percentage of people who love flowers is not very encouraging.
If you have not tasked yourself to massively improve your brain in this challenging and very competitive world, then note it today that you are making a huge mistake.
All the craps, your 'beauty' and 'curves' will fail you abysmally. THEY HAVE FAILED MANY THAT I KNOW.
But the developed brain will never fail you. They will open doors for you for all the people that come close to you would want to crucify themselves around you. When the reverse is the case, they will run as soon as they come.
Show me the one who will be relevant in the nearest future and I will readily show you the one who is deeply committed to the development of her brain.
I am talking to some people that so much believe they can send all my actresses off the screen just because they have shapes and curves.
Listen up my dear, as long as your brain lacks all the rudiments of art. all those curves are trash. Get the art, get the language and your beauty will start making sense to serious people. You know yourselves.

Psychological fact: The smell of rain can literally relieve your stress and improve your mood by 60%.

Where the help of men have failed, God will arise for you. He will bypass human connection to settle you. He will show His Almightiness to expose the limitations of men. You shall never be stranded in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.Have a very fruitful week!

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but is it really? What is pretty? Who decides whether someone is attractive or not? Why do we think someone is really cute but their friend is just average? There are many social factors that play into who we think is beautiful, but the majority of what attracts us to other people is deeply imbedded in our subconscious psyche.

Lying – The most common lie is ‘I’m fine’

Habits – On average it takes 66 days to form a habit.
