"Do not boast about tomorrow for u do not know what a day will bring forth..."- Prov. 27:1

hello everyone,
i had 2 follow up on my journey (if not some pple wld think i wasn;t serious about it in the first place, u kno urself!) and i came up with this verse from the Bible...

I bought a book, "Chekclist for life" and it has really gone a long way in helping me reach out to my spirit; it has made me know that the very little things matter and that's just awesome! This portion was talking about Divine Appointments.

well, a divine appointment could be anywhere, its just how God lets u know where He wants you to be at any particular time. it could be in a conference room, collecting a cheque of a million dollars; it could be in a hospital room for whatever reason. the point is, it may not always be good, but we have to be willing to learn from it.

During the Christmas holiday, while everyone was having a splendid time at home with family, or in the club(u kno urselves!), I was on the road to the village, ALONE! now this was no ordinary journey, considering that i was coming from Abuja instead of Lagos with my family. Honestly, i think i should just share the lesson learned now. The whole experience was just one more confirmation that i am well on the right track to marrying the right person! funny right? lemme gist you...

the precious week, i went to abuja because i had some work 2 do and my boyfriend's dad happens to be my boss (just awesome!). well, he also suggested that i spent the holidays with them, sayn that i ought to start pulling out of my family small small, cz they want me to be as comfortable in their home as possible (not a bad idea o!). i said it was fine, but then, since i didn't go to the village at all last year, my dad'll not forgive me if i dnt show up this year. wen the time came for me to go, he was surprised. he wanted me to go with them on a trip 2 Jos till the 30th of December. this was on the 24th. i was really tempted to go, but i also wanted to c my mum on her bday(31st) and i didnt want anyone to think that i am making marriage plans without involving them (try coming from a very large family. i mean over 150 members, and u'll probably know what i am talking about, lol). i had 2 go anyways and they prayed for me!

the journey was the worst i had ever taken in my life! besides the insults and traffic and late movement...i got to my state capital (note: not my village) by 1:30am CHRISTMAS MORNING!!! i was so bushed + annoyed. Y didn't i just stay? His parents looked for a flight out of Abuja for me, since there was none (i kno dt was 4 a reason), i had 2 take the bus! u know what, my dad was a bit unhappy that i risked my life on the road, wen i could have had a lil' fun and then come over to the village to continue it later on! by the way, my beau and his family had the 'awesomest' time in Jos. His mum really wished i was there, cz her daughters wer not in the country and she would have loved if she and I had all the fun for the 'girls in the family'. that's just one of the sweetest things she's said to me.

what am i trying to say? I learned i should be more being sensitive to the spirit. nothing would have stopped me from explaining to my dad about my position, and i could have had more fun than i had the whole holiday! there's a whole lot more we can learn from divine appointments as they may be differently applied in our various lives...but "when a difficult situation arises, will u choose to rest on Him? when a desired outcome is delayed, are u willing to listen for the lesson in the detour? are u willing to receive the unexpected gifts a day brings and be open to divine appointments?"

...Chew on this!!!

HARRY

well, hello everyone!

this is my first official blog post and i hope it goes a long way as i have decided to start a career in expressing my views. this is hoping that at least someone is blessed, lol!

well, harry harry harry! this is the only person on this planet (literally) that has the purest passion for blogs! he is just a little wonder. You should have guessed by now that he put me up to this.

this young man has, by example of his life, made me understand how hard one has to work to be recognized in his/her field (this field could be anything). i mean, i never knew that blogging could make any sense in this lifetime, but someone has made me understand, that it is better to let it out, in the most creative way possible, because people are listening. i just noticed recently how very opinionated i am. i have chosen to let it out, thanx to the Talkaholic!

ok, so i guess this is it! watch out for more exciting 'episodes', as i discover this new side of me! please i invite u to this new adventure...as I arrange daily...the Chewy bits...
