Of Hopelessness And The Cause Of Suicide: Find Succour

By -

Hopelessness is not the cause of most suicides. It is preceded by a state of existence more superior.

The precursor of suicide goes beyond the superficial happenstance and the seeming disappointment, backstab, betrayal and abuse that most people experience. The thought of taking ones life is a pointer and a conclusive proof of lose of hope an continual existence.

The hopelessness of a man is as a result of the state of confusion and a deep-rooted frustration he finds himself. We ALL experience hopelessness at some points in our lives but that does not validate the idea that life is void of meaning, thus, why seize to exist?

The meaning of life, essentially, is to live a life of meaning; a life worthy of emulation to the point that after one is long gone, society is greatful that he came.
When a man lacks the courage to move on, and buy the idea that life is worthless and meaningless, when he gets to a point that he becomes clueless and indecisive; a state in his life that he has lost his sense of thoroughness, sound thinking and right judgment, when he has concluded that he is better on "the other side" than still here just wallowing in self pity, complaining and explaining his pain to no gain, just know that he is on a suicide mission!

Many are dead while living. Some are just living corps. Others have lost it completely. The majority are stranded in their life's journey. More people are giving up on life as a result of the level of frustration they experience daily; raising bills, low standard of living, lack, liquidation high cost of living as a result of inflationary trends, failing businesses and low income generation, economic downtime etal...

Suicide is fast-becoming a panacea to ending problems and challenges life throws at us. What then shall be done?

What you are going through and will go through is and will not be new to mortals. Your adversary is actually to your advantage! Look around you, look within you, look up. Hold on to your faith and trust in God's integrity to come through for you. He never fails. He never disappoints. Call Him into your situation. When He answers later, He answers better. Trust Him 100% and see Him come through for you. He makes ALL things beautiful in His time.

When the ships are down....God, and not man, is your succour point!

It is not the end for you. You will finish well!

Of Covid-19 And The New World Order

It’s a brand-new era, an emergence of a new world order. We are in a season of spontaneous change, a dispensation of increase and newness. New vistas, new frontiers, new powers, globalization… A fresh dawn is right here for our lawn, scaring and starring at us. Like the breath of a fresh air, post Covid is here. All is come for our restart, replan and restrategy. To rethink and look back at our times of yore. Our struggles, pains, successes and failures. The ups and down, the conquest…and now the crown… Covid-19 came to obstruct, distruct, destruct, distract and distort our plans and programmes. We were all perplexed and swept under our feet without our consent. The entire world stood still and helpless at the face of a pandemic. The rich, the middle class, the poor and the proper paupers, the rich and advanced nations, the 3 rd world countries, the whites and the men of colour all in awe at the accompanied bedeviling nature of a pandemic. Suddenly, social-strata or call

We are citizens of this great country called Nigeria. Nigeria is our fatherland! No matter where we are outside her shores, we are still Nigerians! She cannot be great without our input, without our collective efforts, without our corporate social responsibility! Nigeria: Good people, Great Nation. Hmmm, I'm thinking...well, if Americans can be saying "God Bless America" despite all of their crazy laws validating same sex marriage etal, why can't Nigerians too be saying "God Bless Nigeria?”. We need to change our mentality in this country o. We need to start celebrating ourselves so that the world at large will celebrate us. We need to believe in the new Nigerian State where the true ideals of democracy will manifest. We need to speak PEACE into our Jerusalem—Nigeria so that our children will work and walk freely on our streets without any fear or terror. We cannot ALL just the praying and fasting for our land that corruption should b

OF LINDA IKEJI AND HER NEWLY BOUGHT MANSION: THE RETURN BENEFIT OF CONSISTENT HARDWORK

By Anonymous -

"You will get there, if you do not stop here" -- Exponent Samuel Adu The good book is complete on the subject of diligence. “Seeth thou a man diligent in his business, he shall stand before Kings and not mean men” (Proverbs 22:29). Whoever says hard work is a waste of time is to me a big fool! Hard work pays. And to be precise, it’s one of the surest ways to escape hard life. Diligent, indeed, is God’s delight. When you are consistent with what you do (good or bad), you will get the result someday. That is the secret behind Linda Ikeji’s success story. Know that if you are poor, if you are not living your dreams, if all you do is to settle for less and accept that as your fate, if all you do is compare yourself to others in the bid to play the blame game, if all you do is criticise others who are making it big doing the same things or business you do, if all you do is explain your pain to no gain, and what have view, you are living a lie! Life is an individual
