Stop Making People Slaves We Are All Going To Die


So you helped someone in life with one thing or the other and somehow you now demand ETERNAL gratitude from them? Because you helped someone with school fees, they have to call you twice a week with a vote of thanks.

They also have to tell you every single thing about their academic lives. Like when a lecturer's wife gives birth, or when the VC fi!ghts with his wife? You help someone with part of the capital to start up his business and now you are like a shareholder.

You stroll in and supervise and select who should be employed or not. You buy things and expect not to pay. Helper. Weh done. You invite your girl friend to a birthday where she finds a soul m@ate.

Now, because she won't tell you his favorite drink and details of their relationship, you feel betrayed. Really? Oya listen. Help people and move on.Most people are ungrateful. They won't show a smidgen of gratitude. Yes. But what of the others who have really shown you how happy they are with your help?

Stop making them uncomfortable. Stop making them prisoners with your side talks and supreme glances. Help people and allow them feel helped not suffocated. We are all going to die one day. May be by accident. Some by headache.

Some by other stronger sicknesses with long unpronounceable names. Some during childbirth. Some very painlessly with a nice SIA song in the background. But, we are all going to die. The problem is not death. The problem is our total lack of preparation and acceptance of it.

Especially as Christians. The average clergy spends half of his sermon on the fact that death is not our portion, the other half on "we shall live and not die". Then the extra time on how Jesus died that we may live. Okay.

So wait. Jesus died? Jesus died at 33. So what is wrong in telling us how to number our days? What is wrong with teaching us how to make whatever little time we have here count? So that like Christ we can rise again but as legends in the hearts of men. As personalities in history textbooks. As icons.

The more you try to deny death, the more you magnify it and fear it. But, if you accept the reality and inevitably of death, you learn to live like today's your last. You don't have all the time in the world, life is tooo short. Stop banking on being alive tomorrow and do things now.

PS: I have written my epitaph. Whenever I die, I want people to say "She put a smile in everyone's heart". And I'm working towards making it true daily. #Mimi Bash

Payment Issues About Npower Volunteers

Today I believe I can solve the little problem of payment issues concerning the Npower Volunteers team (FG) For now, some state is still working on the list, while some like they have not submitted a there own list. So my advice for some people that are just bringing information that contradict the real thing. Please, I must say some headmistress/headmaster doesn't know anything about the payment that's the simple truth they are telling you what they feel. The moment they started paying other States like Enugu and Anambra it means they have the comprehensive list so people that should be worried now do having issues with account updating.

There are reasons why suicide happens.

Now I won't be writing from just the "something happened to you, you feel sad and bam, let's die" angle. I am including the mental health condition part. So let's start from establishing the fact that I am bipolar. Yes, bipolar mental disorder. Clinically diagnosed. Taking drugs and undergoing therapy. This declaration is important because I see people coming out to say, stop claiming depression and mental health issues so you can sound knowledgeable about an issue. So this one is not a claim, I can send you a copy of my doctor's report. I carry it around with my documents. Ehen, now that that one is clear. Let's talk. You see all of you talking about suicide being selfish don't know what you are saying. You think we wake up and just want to k!ill ourselves, because we don't want to be around you people and bear the pain alone. Because our existence somehow makes your life better. Because you even care about what we are going through? One of ...
