#MondayInspiration: 4 Reasons Why You Need A Great Support System

Image
While I was sitted in church yesterday, we had our quarterly sunday school preview and one of the topics had to do with helping and supporting others, with specific reference to Aaron and Hur as they lifted up moses's hand during the battle between the Isrealites and Amalekites. This singular act eventually led to the success on the part of the Israelites. ( Exodus 17 : 12) Now before then, I had already been thinking about writing on the importance of having a great support system in our lives and yesterday was a confirmation for me. So here we are! How was your weekend? Mine was very eventful😊 more details later in the week! Often times, we all like to put up a show of having it all together when we really don't. Truth is, it's okay to feel lost, helpless, confused and all those other emotions we dread but that is what makes you human. So, rather than make people think that you totally "got this" when you don't got nothing, let them know! Especial...

Image
I was recently opportuned to go through Keith Harrell's "Attitude is everything" again after a very long time. I had the book while I was in Uni, but somehow I lost it without even discovering the gem that was in it. This time around, I wasted no time in bringing out my pen and book while I jotted some very key points which I'll be sharing with you today. Funny thing is that this part of the book I will be sharing is just the introduction, so now I'm wondering, what will the rest of the book be like?

I promised and I delivered! Lol Welcome to the second part of my Valentine's special posts. This post as I explained here , is for the singles. In other words, I would be sharing some ways in which you can enjoy Valentine's day as a single. Valentine's day is a day to show love isn't it?

Hello Beautiful People! You can tell I'm excited about this post and I hope you will be too in a short while. If you missed our January style personality, you can catch up  here Our February Style Personality is a guy that I honestly love his style! The fact that style to him means more than dressing up is also something I admire. So without wasting your time, let's get right to it! A: Hello! Can you please tell us a bit about yourself? C: I'm Christos. I have 3 sisters and I love them so much,  First child and the only son. How's that for basics?  Lol A: Haha! Its cool.
