LAUGH QUOTE People say love is the best feeling, but I think finding a toilet when you’ve got diarrhea is better   Knock! Knock! Knock, knock. Who’s there? Banana. Banana who? Knock, knock. Who’s there? Banana. Banana who? Knock, knock. Who’s there? Orange. Orange who? ORANGE YOU GLAD I DIDN’T SAY BANANA!   SOFT AND HARD A woman was standing in a crowded lift of the hotel she was staying in. When a man got in and accidentally elbowed her in the breast.

It really makes me sad when I see how some men play with the emotions and the lives of the ladies they are “dating.” Why don’t you treat the lady in your life with the honesty she deserves in a relationship? Let us examine this typical scenario. The lady you have told several times that you love and cannot do without her finally succumbs and falls head over heels in love with you. You can see she is now committed to the relationship body, heart and soul. Because of this she: Is happy with life because she is in…

Your shoes can provide an insightful clue on the person on whose feet they are worn. People tend to subconsciously evaluate a person by their foot ware. This evaluation may elicit admiration or scorn. You don’t want to leave people with a negative opinion because of what your feet are covered with. Your shoes tend to mirror who you are or where you are at.  Through your shoes, you can come across as a king because of the admiration they elicit. In essence your shoes can define your presence. You may look suave, but if your shoes don’t match, people…

As the saying goes: “Love makes they world go round.” And I would like to add that it is “romance that oils the wheel of love”. I have observed that when couples are courting, they are very romantic towards each other but when they get married, within two to three years most of these love birds do not act romantic towards one another. They tend to take each other for granted. Gone are the holding of hands, the stolen kisses, the spontaneous hugs, the occasional surprise gifts, the bathing together, etc. The pet names are now used perfunctorily. If they…

My dear daughter, I read somewhere that “beauty is what we do and say and how we feel, it is not how we look.” I was taken by the succinct truth in this remark, and I wanted to pass this knowledge to you. Now my dear, why is this the case? You may meet someone and are instantly attracted to them, but once they open their mouth to say something, or do something, you are turned off before you can spell “attracted”. You are repelled by who they are, as though the person has a bad body odour. You would even avoid being associated with…

For some time now, story-telling has held a very interesting place in my heart and head. And to actually unravel this intriguing concept, I went on a journey of discovery… ENTER THE WORLD OF DISNEY… I actually went to Disney world, not just to serenade my kids in the wonders of that little mouse called “Mickey”, I also wanted to get a sense of the size – the length, the breath and the depth – of the Empire of Walt Disney. And, oh, … I saw enough to convince me, not just about the power of stories in connecting people…

A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands. He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside. Pastor said, “You need to join the Army of the Lord!” My friend said, “I’m already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor.” Pastor questioned, “How come I don’t see you except at Christmas and Easter?” He whispered back, “I’m in the Secret Service.”   BRAINWASH A father is in church with three of his young children, including his five-year-old…

Religion, when used for ends other than a connection to God, is very dangerous. That seems to be the Nigerian example right now. That is why some motivational speakers purportedly standing on God’s altar are fleecing their flock. ARE OUR JET BUYING PREACHERS ACTUALLY FOLLOWING THE JESUS EXAMPLE? What one has observed is that, as the poverty level in Nigeria rises, the so-called preachers seem to get richer, and not just that, they… seem to be displaying their wealth in ways that show how shallow our values have become. From private Universities priced out of the reach of Church members,…
