A Short Poem

-
Tap once for friendship
Tap twice for love
Tap three times
For all of the above
 

When meeting someone new
There are some things you need to do
Please try not to disrespect
When they're speaking do not interject. 


The way you interact with them
Matters a lot, 
Because first impressions
And a bad impression, 
Can really tie the knot.

Opportunity and the Doors of Life

Sister Act 2 is a movie with a major life lesson. OPPORTUNITY! Everyone needs to know that word. The key phrase in that movie was "If wanna be somebody, if you wanna go somewhere, then you better wake up and pay attention". For playful children, it's just hard to pay attention sometimes because they're always playing and always want to. Another thing I noticed in that movie was the setting of the church. It wasn't exactly the land of opportunity. But the opportunity that was actually out there was the one the actor character did not see. I'm trying to say that you should always look for the open doors in life, or sooner or later, every single door will be closed. Not all chances come twice.

How Does my Behavior Affect Others

 Your attitude/behavior can positively or negatively affect a person, their behavior, their actions, their attitudes and even their perceptions. A leader or team member who has positive attitudes toward other co-workers can positively influence those around them. Your smile can be a huge variable in someone's day.

(All behaviors listed are unacceptable anywhere).  How Your Words Affect Others Words influence others and build relationships. They can also tear down relationships. Simply put, language holds massive, colossal power to manifest change, whether it's good or bad. How Does My Attitude Affect My Behavior Attitudes can positive...

Vox Populi Vox Dei

 A sọrọ nitori a jẹ iran ti o ṣe iyẹn. I am not a fluent Yoruba speaker, but I know a few words. If you also don't speak fluent Yoruba, you're probably wondering what that text above means. It means 'We talk because we are a generation that does that'.  What I mean by "We talk" is the protests. I mean, imagine if it wasn't this generation that this was happening to, other generations might have cowered in fear and let SARS and Covid 19 to destroy and take away everything important to them. (Not like Nigerians ever cower). The reason we talk is because something is wrong and we don't like it, so we say something. We say something. Don't feel guilty, that you are not out there protesting with our other Nigerians. You are also protesting, just not physically, you could be praying, donating and some of the other things we are doing. I don't protest physically either, technically because I'm too young to go out alone much more to protest. I prot...
