TIME DO TELL

Image
Image from Google Time has a miraculous way of unravelling itself to us, it has a way of pointing us to the right direction but how often do we pay attention to the vibe and energy that comes with it. Many of  us do say "MY TIME will  come" maybe your time has come and you are busy looking for the answer in the wrong place, in the wrong people, in the wrong audience and perhaps in the wrong state of mind. You really cannot capture time, but you need to know when TO  MAKE IT COUNT. Time reveals how strong we are in the face of adversity and it makes us realise that we are interconnected and interwoven with the Universe. Time Nurtures, it gives us an absolute reflection of our self if we let it, but some of us are too busy watching the clouds and  chasing shadows that we miss it. Time Heals, its not a cliche.. its for real... whatever hurt you feel, give it time, few years down the line, when you think about it, it just feels like a breeze, and you ...

I HOPE

Image
image from Google As we are coming to the end of this Pandemic, I hope we are different and I hope we start to see the best in every human race and to understand and accept that all of us are flawed and we are not perfect, we just all strive each day to become the best version of ourselves..  cant really say for everyone, but I know a few of us do. As we come to the end of this Pandemic, I hope you chose not to ignore a phone call or a text message cos it could be the last, because we are not like rivers, trees or the hills, we are not here forever. As we come to the end of this Season , I hope you remember to dance even without beats, but to dance at your own rhythm and flow, to understand that only now is guarantee, things could become different in a split second and you have no power to change nor control it. As we move on to the next phase, I hope you understand what it  means to laugh at your own foolishness and not at others, because your percepti...

HALF FULL OR LESS

Image
Half full or less I don't know how many people get to read this, but I hope enough that need to read it and to know there is God in all of these. The current situation is alarming and it calls for an immediate response and not reaction. We need to know that even in the midst of COVID-19  there is still a reason to smile and hope for a better day and a better tomorrow. There is still a need to look beyond our present situation and focus our mind and energy on Hope and Love. I believe Hope and Love coexist and one cannot do without another.  I stand to be corrected, but I stand on the  words I speak. I always seek to see hope in most if not all situation.  I seldom see the glass, bottle, room, heart, life as empty.  I see it as  thou it had an element of matter, An element of existence, even if the glass is half full or if its less than a quarter................. I still see the Light. Even thou I feel the room is emp...

SUMMARY FOR 2019 AD THE YEAR OF OUR LORD

One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.'  Quote by Sigmund Freud

RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES

Image
image from google I don't know if its only me that belong to this school of thought. But I quite believe there's nothing like Right in this life, meaning for all that you are or that you have is a Privilege, it's not a right. That you are living isn't a RIght many people better than you know have gone down the grave way way back and you are still here sucking just because you didn't get all that you wished I hope you sure know that the difference between a Living dog and a dead Lion is HOPE A lion thou more powerful than a Dog, of what use is it when He's Dead. The fact that you can walk is a Privilege not a right I have seen far better people more deserving and you are here wailing and crying for all that you wished and dreamed for That You can breathe is a blessing not a right the other day, i saw a 6 month old baby boy breathing with the aid of the back pack Oxygen and you think you deserve better than that young blood wake up and smel...

HE THAT IS WITH YOU...........

Image
image from Google Loneliness in times of challenges and trial can be difficult to deal with, especially if you find it difficult to trust, just because you've been a victim of betrayal  I do not blame you, it could be one of the toughest things or challenges that you have to go through. It could be your toughest period, Even your darkest Period. It could be the toughest period  where you look around and the people that ought to offer help suddenly neglect you. What do you DO? Lean on GOD😃 Because he is the very presence help in time of Need He's the help of the helpless the Father of the fatherless The Husband of the widow He's the only one that will never betray you The only one that will never let you down He's the only one that can give you peace admits distress He's the only one that can see you through your darkest Period. If you are familiar with the Bible There was a time where the Prophet Elisha  was surrounded by lo...

Social Media Captive

Image
Image from google Most of us have been enslaved by Social Media............Snapchat, facebook,twitter, Instagram. You name it We do not even understand the word moment,oh  let me say peace and quiet, we've been enslaved and ensnared by Social Media, we are so consumed with how many likes we  get, SOOO CONSUMED WITH STRANGERS approval as if it really matters>>>>>> When did we become Zombies and social media JunKIE We dont even have time to smell the flowers not to talk of dance in the rain. So tell me,  When last did you take a look at Mother Nature? When last did you watch the ant steal sugar from a jar in your kitchen? When last did you watch in awe the rainbows and the formation of  clouds into different shapes? Technology has been really helpful, talk about the ground breaking discoveries et al. But what makes me sad is its done lots of damages as well our children have become...

LOVE IS SACRIFICE

Image
image from Google Love means many things to different people and like the popular Cliche, there are many things that Love is. Love is Patient Love is Kind Love is not boastful Love does not rejoice in wrong Above ALL, LOVE IS SACRIFICIAL Yes....Love is the ultimate sacrifice, meaning GOD IS LOVE If God didn't love us so, he wouldn't have sacrificed his only Son to save the world If you love someone you are ready to sacrifice and make compromises for them You are willing to go on an extra journey with them or for them Love is not Jealous Love is not arrogant Love is not rude Love does not do evil Above all, Love is the ultimate sacrifice For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life Yes!!!! Love gives life #Shalom 27/01/2019 Copyright Siyanspires 2019

EARN IT!!!!

Image
image from pinterest  One of my greatest regret in life is joining a group or let's say an organisation, letting myself go and allowing every Tom, Dick and Harry to walk all over me. I must well say I regret those decisions and it was very late before I realise. But one of the things I learnt is the Power of Ownership and Presentation.. The way you Own yourself is the way people will treat you. The way you Present yourself is the way people will accept you Call yourself a Spade and people will call you a Garden Tool Call your self a King and people will treat you as one This my friend lies in your Ownership and Presentation.... Darling, Please don't  drag yourself on the floor for people to tramp all over you Present yourself like Maya Angelo would Say "Like you have an OIL WELL IN YOUR BACKYARD" I'm not saying you should boast or be proud There's surely a thin line between comporting yourself with dignity and pride. Of course you...

Pluck the morning glory flower

Image
image from Google I don't know if you were one of the lucky ones that got to learn Poem in your mother tongue. Well, I am.. very much into Culture and tradition as I believe that's the way of Life. This takes me back to the first ever Nursery Rhyme that I will ever learn it Goes.... Ja itana to tan otutu osidara ma duro dojo ola akoko sure tete🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 it means, Pluck the morning glory flower wet and fresh don't wait till tomorrow as the time flies and run🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 Well that's the benefit of having a childhood in Ibadan, the WEstern Part of Subshara Africa Nigeria. So back to the main gist... you see, this year is technically over but not over. We still have about two weeks for the year to run out........... Two weeks is to much to have the pawn that changes the whole game For some of us that had dreams, aspirations and goals, this is the time to reflect, reassess yourself.  Your goal, dreams and aspirations and  ask ...

MAKE IT PLAIN ; MAKE IT SECRET

Image
Copyright  Syaninspires 2018 There is this passage in the bible.. I cant really recall where it was written. But it says write the Vision and make it Plain. Basicly what it means is whatever your Dreams, Aspirations, Ambitions are.. you need to write them down. You need to scribble Them. But hushhhh...😯 you need to keep it quite.. not everyone needs to know what you are up to. The adage from my culture it is said that: " Whatever you keep secret has more glory in the end" Well it sounds a bit vague, but if you take a step back and ponder, you  will see that it makes  lots of sense. I'm not saying you should be anti-social nor cut people off.  Far from it!!!! This is when the spirit of discernment come to play.. You need to discern what information is worth sharing and  with whom. If you share sensitive information with fools or enemy like friends...Then you have yourself to blame. The Bible says the power of Life and Death is in...

Young WITH GRACE

YOUNGING WITH GRACE👧🛊👧👧👧👧 So age ISSA a big deal.. if you are stuck between your late 20s  and early thirties ore fifty if you may.  Its even a bigger deal if you are unmarried with no children . BUt I tell you, Age is what you make of it. You can be OLD and Twenty and you can be young and Thirty. Almost everything start with you and guess what? The universe also respond to your thought. Never let anyone or No one Bully you nor make you feel bad that you getting old.... Please never let them. Embrace your old age with grace, of course there are many things you will have to give up. You 😃have to embrace that no matter how much you try, you can never be a size eight 😃 you have to quickly come to terms with that, if you don't want to end up in despair. Wear all that seem comfortable and dont make a fuss about it. and do not limit yourself.... But dont  take stupid RIsk of Plastic Surgery.... Be whom you've always wanted to be and do not...

Happiness

Image
   HAPPINESS Copyright SiyanSpires Happiness is really relative, it cannot be connoted nor define. Its a state of mind, and a state of ACT!! I could have a dime and still be happy I could have no dime and still be jolly out of all the free gift we were given I surely think Happiness is what you create within  you It is what makes you shine and bright like a rainbow unfolds Happiness is contagious, I could walk down a room a room gloomy and infect someone with my Smile and pass it on and on till it gets to the rooftop Someone once asked an old Lady that sits by the kings gate with her decaying but gratefully not smelly teeth Mam, What makes you smile? Knowing fully well you leave on what you get at the gate which is oviously not  a well rate She replied the noble and said! Happiness is what you make of it you either welcome it with an open arm, caress it, nature it and never let it go or  abuse it, maltreat it and hence he p...

CHOOSE YOUR BATTLE WISELY/ BE CONSISTENT WHILST FIGHTING YOUR BATTLE

Image
Copyright SiyanSpires CHOOSE YOUR BATTLE WISELY/ BE CONSISTENT WHILST FIGHTING YOUR BATTLE This Post shoudn't  be titled choose your battle wisely, it should be called  SOME BATTLES ARE TO MAKE US but as I would like to continue the Trend, I would like to to still name it Choose your battle wisely.. For some or so many battles , they are to propel us to the next phase of our LIfe. So if you dont fight the battle you wont move to the phase. There are so many practical examples one of which for instance when you were in school, you would have to write many exams to progress to the next class, even in universities if you don't pass a course, You would have to carry it over... and redo it until you pass to be able to graduate So also in life if you dont fight a battle successfully, I mean the battle you have to fight not the ones you have to ignore, then you will continue to fight and if care is not taken, you will pass it to your generation, so it becomes a ge...

CHOOSE YOUR BATTLE WISELY

Image
copyright siyanspire 2018 CHOOSE YOUR BATTLE WISELY I've been wanting to write this post for a while now, but lots of things just  kept poping out. Honestly.. but I had to settle down to write this post. Even as i'm typing not just my fingers are tired of typing my mouth ditto, you may want to ask for how that relate to what i'm writing, but I just  want  you to know the writer's tune. So straight to the Point.. Today we are talking about Life battles, do you know there are different types of battles in Life and God empowers us to fight each one differently. ThERE are battles that only GOd will fight for you, meaning you cannot fight alone TheRE are battles that You will fight with God beside you... There are battles that you can only fight with silence, meaning all that you have to do is to keep quite and be calm...and BOOM! Battle is wON! There are battles that you have to ignore because if you waste  your energy on it, it will drain you an...

FINDING PUPOSE

Image
copyright Image SiyanSpires 2018 So many times, so often at times, I ask my self this unending question. I ask my bestie  same. The question has become a cliche, it s synonymous to what is your name? Perhabs Who are you and where are you from? hold on a sec, are you actually pondering what I am pondering Cos if you are, that simply means we are in the same boat So tell me, how exciting can that be? When you know your purpose To be Candid, there is nothing as fruitful! There's nothing as useful! And there's nothing as needful! Other than Discovering why you are here I just finish reading the book of Esther... and to be honest I dont know what Lead me to Reading the book It must have been this quest for purpose and prowess Did you now that the only purpose of Esther and the only reasons why we know about Esther was because She saved her people from destruction.. Albeit it was at  the detriment of her life Back in the days when you are not called ...

STAY FOCUS

Image
copyright SiyanSpires 2018 I learnt most of life lessons whilst reading or watching movies, when I mean movie. I mean good movies. I just finished watching the Karate Kid, the movie staring Will Smith’s Son. Hmmm, that movie is sure what is needed at this Time , rather still at this stage and at this point in my life, the Lesson learnt towards the end, when it was quite obvious he had lost, when   everyone had given up on him, Jaden asked his Instructor who happened to be one of my favourite   Hero as a child for   a last shoot.. Now that is something, that is something I will always respect, that is something I will always practise, to fight and fight till the last breath, giving up is not an option, its okay to fail , oh Yes let no one ever deceive you that it’s a loser’s creed. It is more than welcome to fail as many times until you have master and honed and own IT !!!! The only thing that matters is your attitude each time you fail. Do you ...
