Girls Once Toddlers By Ogri Mathilda Sarah (@Mathillss)


No longer does happiness become a routine
But a thing to check
With lipsticks and bangles
High heels and diamonds
Earnings and bracelets
Girls once toddlers
All dressed in their vintage shoes
Swaying high
Walking high
Heads up so high
Like a burden so free
Seeing beauties called the Future
Creating visions as they move on
Do they really know the aftertaste of growing up?
Girls once toddlers
Now an adult or a Mother
No longer freely does walking sink in
All but a choice to carry gently
The pretty fragile legs in a trace for a catwalk
Who would once ever think
These toddlers holding unto toys and choclates
Dismiss all but for a glance of shoes?
Once were toddlers
Now but a Lady
Worried about the future
A perfect lover
Wired accounts
A theatre of cloths
And jewelries
With blooming flowers
In her decord' mansion
Girls once toddlers
No more but a lady
With flashy wishes
Of if only the toddling
Years could last forever
Wrapt in laughter and less worries.
Girls once toddlers

Converted but Unbroken Christians!

Converted but Unbroken Christians! These Christians are converted but they have refused to be broken of themselves to the Will of God! One example we have in the Bible is Jacob! Jacob always loved to do things His own way! Although, he was His covenant child, he still went on to deceive His brother and cheated him out of His right! Later in Jacob's life, God renamed him Israel, which means "he struggles with God." In fact, Jacob struggled with God his entire life, as many of us do. As he matured in faith, Jacob depended on God more and more. But the turning point for Jacob came after a dramatic, all-night wrestling match with God. In the end the Lord touched Jacob's hip and he was a broken man, but also a new man. From that day forward, Jacob was called Israel. And for the rest of his life he walked with a limp, demonstrating his dependence on the Lord. Jacob finally learned to give up control to God. Converted but unbroken Christians are workers of ...

Beverly his cousin was in coma and  his dad had become a drunk, his Mum, a nagging wife. Nothing seemed right anymore. So he decided, to take a stroll. Hoping it'd ease off the pain and anger he felt within. Two streets away from home, he heard a gun shot, three gun shots ; At the building where he was resting.

Her body had become all cold, how  did he get here in the first place? he wondered. There were sounds from afar, someone was in the house. "Jerry... " " Wetin happen ? ...

Must-Have Conversations when Dating pt. 3 - Careers

Balancing career and family is one of the greatest challenges facing newly married couples. Just when you thought marriage was going to simplify your life, you start to realize that there are decisions ahead, such as: Whose career takes priority? Will both of us continue to work outside the home once we have children? Is it fair for me to be stuck in a dead-end job in order to put you through school? Will the spouse with the higher income have more say in how our money is spent? If you work and I work, who does the housework? Don’t lock yourselves into a house or car payment that requires two incomes. All of a sudden, wedding planning looks minor by comparison.
