Why People Hate You For No Reason

 Have you ever met someone for the first time and you just dislike or hate the person, well this happen to everyone and can be very bad if you are at the receiving end. So are you wondering why someone who has never interacted with you before hate you?  There are actually several reasons why this could happen and that is what this write up is all about.  The first reason I will be talking about is Jealousy/envy , humans tend to hate who they can't become and so it is easy for people to question your success and achievement when they are jealous of you.

When Failure Happens

Being a Nigeria means a lot of things, one of them is saying "failure is not my portion, success is mine, I shall be the head and not the tail" and so on. While this declarations are good considering Nigerians are religious people and it is also good for positive mindset they are really not too realistic because failure do happen and it is sometimes the best thing to happen at the time. Failing a test or exam, not securing a job, not being able to meet a target at work, not getting admission for a program, or even running down a business are all examples of failure.

We have read and seen stories of great people like Oprah Winfrey, Thomas Edison who had to fail multiple times before becoming great. So the question is what should I do when

Everyone actually have a definition of love.. but really, what is love or better still what should love be?

Love is commitment...holding on ... never giving up... not looking back... still believing...not faltering...  Love is pain... enduring... tolerating... accepting...forgiving... Love is sacrifice... giving it all... not holding back... not expecting returns... Love comes with a price...a price paid by the giver not the receiver....going against the natural order of law... Love is forgiving
