A TROPHY; THE BEST WOMAN



Dedicated on the 13th day of May, 2018 to all virtuous mothers in the world and specially to those whose memories are legendary💖

You don't know the things we go through to see our children happy
You don't know the tears we hide to see them laughing
Oh, you cannot understand the pain we chide to see them powerful

No, you can't fathom the sacrifices we make
to see them be who they 'can' be.

We may be poor, but for our children we are ever rich
We may be weak, but for our children, we are always strong
We may be sick, but for our children we are ever fit.

When it comes to our kids, we can fight life itself
Don't pity us when we fail to continue because death slipped in.
Love us because we did all we could.

Mama, you are a gem that I love.
A rare jewel found in nowhere else but you.
May our mothers ever live long to see us celebrate them more💕!!!

THE PROVERBS 31 MAN

Image
Love Is Waiting Series. Ep. 3 It is so easily we ask for a woman with a ‘ Proverbs 31 Status’ . I mean it is only natural we all desire good things. So when I often hear men pray for a proverbs 31 woman, I am not surprised. This only made me curious to find this woman. Is she in me? How can I bring her in? She is not a woman, she is a personality and everyone can be her. Very often we place our 100% focus on the proverbs 31 woman. Yes, she deserves it. ‘A woman who fears the Lord is to be praised (Prov. 31:30 ). It took a wise King 31 chapters to find this woman. She didn’t even come in the early half of the last chapter of Proverbs, she comes at the last. This woman must be great, virtuous, adorned with jewels beyond that in this world. She must be a gift of God woven in human flesh. She must be a woman with a difference. It says all have done well but this woman surpasses them all. Wow! If excellence means going beyond the mark, like when your green Khaki shorts goes bey...

IF VALENTINE REFUSES TO COME (A good relationship deserves the opportunity to work)

Image
Final Episode, Love-Is-Waiting Series. Valentine in this piece of art is indicative of perfection. Hence the title can also translated as ‘If Perfection Refuses to Come’ (Let’s give our relationships the opportunity to work💝) Scene One (Standing words) Liz👩: The first day I thought of you, I was in a mess. God sent you as a message to fix me, I guess. You are a Rubik’s cube solved right. Victor👨 : The first day I set my eyes on you was the day I said my goodbyes to my mind’s personal space. You invaded my thoughts and even if I were to be Scofield, I wouldn't have been able to break free from the prison you placed my heart in with your body's movement and your vocal discipline. Liz👩: If words have the power to heal, then you are my doctor😎. Victor👨: You see, when you spoke, I knew God had listened to my prayers. You were everything I dreamt of,  And your specifications were perfect enough to match my missing rib. Liz👩: The first day I to...

YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE (YOLO)

Image
YOLO! (You Only Live Once)😋😋😋 Specially dedicated to the ever-buzzing Millennials. ‘ Once in a lifetime means there is no second chance’ Troy Bolton’s starting line in High School Musical 2. How much of the things which we only have once have we cherished? A perfect example is your mother and father, you can only have one (biological). I want to touch the surface of the most clear of all, life. You only have one life to live as a human being. I don’t know how this makes you feel. But whenever I realize this I reckon I must get everything right as much and as fast as I can. I must make a pathway to live after I am gone and that can only be by passing on something of a legacy to the next generation. Welcome to YOLO where you only live once. If your lifetime is not enough for you then you are the laziest man in the world. Howbeit that we find difficulty in feeding others with the only things money can’t buy, such as charity, patience, joy. We are selectively greedy...

LIFE IS LIKE READING A BOOK (Personal development is not an option, it is necessity)

Image
Similes & Metaphors Episode 2 I have met people who misuse the phrase ‘ accept me for who I am’ or ‘ No one is perfect’ . Well, you won’t think twice😏 to return your mathematics textbook if everything is in disorder grammatically and pictorially (even though it is not supposed to be an English or Visual art textbook). People accepting you for who you are is not an excuse to fail to develop yourself. In this age personal development is as essential as the air we breathe. Many relationships that started well ended abruptly because someone kept it in mind he was a liar before they met, she knew it and still loved him, therefore he should continue to be one.  A book is not all about the story. In fact it is 30% the story and 70% how the writer explains the story. An author must review and edit the book over and over again to make it perfect. If you ever read a book full of errors you will know how annoying it is. It is like pouring water into a basket because you str...

The WHOSOEVERS

                  The WHOSOEVERs A poem written by Elizabeth Ewudiwa. Based John 3:16 (...whosoever believeth) Possi.. possibly your people can be saved but not by me I, I am Moses a stammerer No one sends a person like me to evangelize I am Abigail, just a girl Ordinary and unable to catch the attention of the even the smallest crowd of men. I am Pinky, Brain is who I call my elder brother The least in my family, too young to lead the people You say I should be Mickey Mouse, saving the world But I am Gideon, the one who’s locked up in the valley Of self-pity With hands trying to escape but tied to the vein of my bones. Maybe I can rise to speak, but to lead? Not I Think again, you probably mistook me for another, the dice over rolled this time Lord Or I wrongly showed up at the wrong place EXCUSES WE GIVE TO BE EXCUSED FROM THE MISSION WE ARE ALREADY INCLU...
