One thing life has taught me is, your morals in most cases, are determined by circumstance. You will absolutely find yourself in a position you once judged

“You have to provide value,” “Why should they take time out of their busy day to speak with you?” “They already hear this everyday, think outside the box,” etc.
It’s exhausting. I just wanna make friends or find common ground for a mutually beneficial relationship.
Lolsss,
The ignorance of some of you is beyond redemption.
So, it's the Oyo State government that's paying alawee now?? 😂😂😂
Find better thing do opposition abbeggii.

The sheer number of variables that must align for a good person to also be the right spouse for you is quite astonishing when you think about it.
Their Deen,temperament, upbringing, family, in-laws, parenting instincts, conversational depth, physical attraction, background, values, even the particular flaws you can live with and the ones they can tolerate in you.
And beyond all these, the timing of your lives, the circumstances of your meeting, and your capacity to keep choosing each other as you both change.
So when you find someone whose virtues suit your needs, whose imperfections you can bear, and whose presence makes the responsibilities of marriage easier to fulfil, you begin to appreciate how much of it was beyond your own planning.
A compatible spouse is one of those remarkably particular gifts from Allah, so carefully suited to you that the more you contemplate the variables that couldn't be accidental, the more your gratitude deepens.

When I got laid off from Microsoft, I got into a company in Lagos that felt paying 600k naira a month was doing me a favour. I had to take the offer to keep body and soul together.
Was there for 6 months until I fell out with the MD and started looking out. That was when I started my training outfit but couldn't quite get traction.
Anyway, after leaving this NGO, I spent another 5 months in the wilderness, literally. Ate rejections almost every other day. Was living on the goodwill of friends and relations. Basically wondering what to get out of life.
An Antler rep came knocking at the time and was in the process of fast tracking my application to the Antler cohort at Kenya. Guess what? My passport had expired. Ran to go fast track my passport, after a few days emailed the partner but was told it was too late.
I remember laying in my room laughing hysterically, mulling to myself, "who I offend?"
Thankfully at that time, I applied to Andela and the process started for another 2 months. I got into Andela and my monthly salary was my previous annual salary. This trend continued in a subsequent company. Use am run one or two that year.
But the point is, while I was enjoying this new reality, I asked myself, "why did you worry all those times?" In hindsight, there was no reason to. I should have just chilled for 5 months, enjoyed myself.
But we are human and can only understand life in hindsight. As long as you believe this it will work out for you: EVERYTHING will turn out better than you expected, just stop worrying.

don’t trade your solitude for anything.
everything in this world is temporary. sorrow, grief, love, people, everything comes and goes.but solitude is yours. It’s something you can always return to. Something that stays with you, no matter what leaves.
Never lose that.

People are typically bridges to the lessons we need to learn and places we need to get to.
Be careful the things dishonour, resentment and mediocrity can rob you off getting from the people God sends your path.

What if I told you there’s a university in Russia where students from over 160 countries come together to study, research and build their futures? 🌍🇷🇺
And guess what? I got to experience it firsthand!
DAY 2 OF MY RUSSIA EXPEDITION: RUDN UNIVERSITY, MOSCOW!
Founded in 1960, RUDN University carries a remarkable history. In 1961, it was named after Patrice Lumumba, a prominent figure in Africa’s struggle for independence. Imagine that connection between Africa and a university thousands of kilometres away!
But the history wasn’t even my favourite part.
As a Chemistry graduate from the University of Ilorin, I was particularly excited to explore the university’s academic environment.
From Medicine to Agricultural Engineering, we learned about research in biotechnology, molecular analysis, smart agriculture and sustainable ecosystems.
One presentation that caught my attention highlighted how technology is being applied to agriculture, from monitoring land resources to developing solutions for more sustainable cities.
And just when I thought the day couldn’t get more interesting, we also visited a radio studio called ‘Mic Live’🎙️.
From science and research to microphones and broadcasting, I was getting a glimpse of two worlds I am genuinely passionate about.
What stayed with me most was the idea of an institution bringing people from different countries and academic backgrounds together through education.
I came to Russia for an international journalism competition, but every stop is opening my eyes to possibilities far beyond the competition itself.
From UNILORIN to RUDN, I am learning that education can take you places you never imagined. ❤️
If you had the opportunity to study abroad, what course would you choose?

The world does not need a billion suns. It needs stars and moons. Some people are the mountains, some the seas. Some stand as rivers, others trees. Your greatness is waiting for you to discover how it shines in the world and there's magic in knowing there's so much you can be.
How I feel when I see people my age do great things while I’m still stuck trying to figure out what the hell is going on in my life. teapawt.net/whotjj/status/21078630…

Stop trying to get to zero problems, that place doesn't exist. Instead, work on earning your way into better problems. Problems that are yours, on purpose, in service of something you actually want.

The actual arc of a well-lived life isn’t a march toward “problem-free.” It’s a slow, deliberate migration from imposed problems to selected ones.
From “this happened to me” to “ I signed up for this.”
