Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world…if you do so, you are insulting yourself.

Be unique at whatever you do. It’s your life!

Franklin Roosevelt Quote

Take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly, and try another. But by all means, try something.

Day 2-Three Day Quote Challenge

This is the second day of the challenge in which I was nominated by Southern By Design. My first quote is on trust. This is built over time. In this generation, trust has being a real big time issue. No one trusts nobody, family members don’t trust each other anymore, business partners, and even some of us don’t trust ourselves. If you want to be trusted, it starts with you.

Candle Light of My World

Your candle light that radiates through my soul

The beam of light that lights up my world

That light that gives me the aura of vitality

The rays that reflect the brightness of your tender heart

Wishing that it would never have to go off

Than to live an everlasting trail in my life..

Little Things That Matter In Life

What exactly  does it mean when that word LIFE is mentioned? It’s all about everything that surrounds us, that goes on in our environment, people, character, it encompasses everything that makes us human, both known and unknown. According to the Wikipedia, it says life is partially a process not a substance. Life is not a nightmare.

There are various things that matter in life which cannot be compromised, but I would like to lay emphasis on the little things that matter in life.

However take note that some of this little things are very important to some of us in our daily lives and cannot be underestimated. Little things that matter to you might be the greatest need in life for others or better-still for you-eddaz.

I met a guy once who told me that women matter a lot in his life, I asked why and his reply was that, women made him who he is, women love him for no particular reason and would go at any length to make him have every one of his needs. For me, it sounds kinda funny but it’s actually an essential little thing which turned significant in his life.

We need to take cognizance of this little things in out life, what are there values, how far have they journeyed with us. Writing matters to me but it’s of no relevance to some people, most important thing is it matters to me and I would love to explore it more.

“It has been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important”-The memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

For some of us little things that matter to us could vary from family, career, education, health, for some of us, it’s clothes, makeup kits, gadgets, flowers, sharing gifts, having get together functions, sporting events, watching movies, singing, name it….However how little it seems, the most important thing is it matters to you, so keep enjoying it, you might look back down memory lane and realise it was a life saver for you  or something bigger. If the things that matter in your life are totally wrong, then give up on it. We have to stop gaining pleasure from things that hurt people so bad.

For me little things that matter are gestures like opening doors for the elderly people, helping someone in need, a little smile goes a long way for me. ..Try to encourage little things in life such as sharing with the less privileged, a little assistance for the needy, kind words to people around you, keeping the environment clean, a little tip once in a while as sign of appreciation.

Challenge yourself today that henceforth each day or trice a week you will buy a plate of meal for someone in need, give out some of your old things, you never know who might be in great need of this things. Take note of your environment and do the needful.Go on a short trip, have fun…
