Dear Single Pringle😄,

I'm sorry I called you that especially now that is only a few days before February 14th,
C'mon its just a day, you can't be pressured

I know it might be painful sa 😁, oya sorry

I just wanted to remind you real quick that

'DO NOT GET YOURSELF INVOLVED WITH ANYONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE ANY ONE THEY LISTEN TO'

I know this might sound cliche but it is beyond that.

Do not allow the butterflies in your tummy and the speed at which your is beating at the thought of him/her make you delusional.

It is important to have a mentor as a young person which preferable shouldn't be related to either of or both of you.
It makes the journey easier for you because you can easily learn from their experiences.

Prepare for your marriage much more that you're preparing for the relationship or wedding.

May you not be unfortuna8 oo

May find the kind of love that your heart desire.

God = Love.

Have a blessed week y'll 🙏🫶

*MANTLES FOR PARENTS/INTENDING PARENTS:*

1.) The Lord gives wings to your children to fly

2.) The presence of God overshadows your children. They are Planted, protected & secured by the Lord.

3.) The Lord writes on the tablets of your child's heart

4.) No child will be in any form of bo***ge. Every Bo***ge is broken now!

Comment Amen!

It is morally, spiritually, grammatically and ethically wrong to start people’s name with small letters.
A name is a proper noun and should be treated as such. This is 2025, stopeet please😂

How to help a grieving person:

1. Acknowledge their loss/person/special occasions - you may be worried about saying the wrong thing, but saying nothing at all could make the person feel worse. Mentioning their person isn't going to remind them of their loss - they're thinking of them all the time anyway. Acknowledge how challenging holidays, birthdays and anniversaries must be without them.

2. Offer support - there are countless challenges that accompany a loss and the life admin is enormous! Anything that can lighten the load at work is helpful. Offer to grab them a coffee or lunch, ask if they'd like to go for a walk to get away from their desk and if you work from home, a virtual check-in could do the trick. And if you don't know how to help, simply ask 'how can I support you?'

3. Avoid platitudes, comparisons and advice - everyone's grief journey is different and even if you've suffered a loss yourself, please don't compare! Don't tell them 'time will heal' or 'it will get better'. Often grief feels worse as time passes, especially in those early weeks, months or years. Advice can be well-meaning but know that there is no solution or 'getting over' grief.

4. Language is important - asking 'how are you?' or 'how was your weekend?" can be superfluous. Instead, you could ask, 'how has the transition back to work been?', or 'would you like some company/a chat?' In grief, everything can become amplified including common words/phrases that may come across as insensitive.

5. Avoid commenting on the grieving person's appearance - if they have lost/put on weight, or look tired they are well aware. If you're worried they're not eating then offer to cook them a meal or gift them a voucher for a food delivery service. If you're worried about their health, invite them along for a walk or exercise class. If they look tired, acknowledge how hard it must be to sleep when grieving.

6. Praise their effort - getting up each day, showering and getting dressed is a huge feat in itself, let alone showing up for work each day and interacting with people. If they are caring for children or elderly/sick parents on top of that, the weight of this can be excruciating alongside their grief. Acknowledge how they show up despite this and tell them you're proud of them.

7. If nothing else, be kind!

Grief at work is not something to be 'managed' but to be met with compassion and understanding.

2024: The Bitter, Sweet Year

2024 was one great year, where some of my long term prayers were answered and some of my dreams saw the daylight.

I was genuinely thankful and grateful to God for such a fulfilling and rewarding year that gave a glimpse of hope for a better future.

Then, death struck, on the 28th of December, the heavens came to the earth to collect an angel, they could wait no further, they came to take a saint home.

Meimi, as I fondly call her breathed her last, and finally got her WELL-DESERVED REST after she had toiled and moiled.

To say this was a rude shock is to say it mildly, it is hard to believe, process, or accept...

As the sunrises daily, the reality of your demise hits harder...

Although, this is a hard pill to swallow, but we will not mourn like those who do not have hope, we will trust in his WILL and his WAY.

Iyami tooto, abiyamo to’sowon (my beloved mother, a rare mother)... You are leaving a big shoe for me which I may never fit into, I will not even try too hard, because your kind is rare.

You were a Phenomenal Mother

A Quintessential Wife

A God Addict

A Prayer Warrior

A Born Teacher

A Disciplinarian par Excellence

A Loyalist to the Core

A Peaceful Soul

A Gospel Evangelist

A Loving Mother and Grand mother

The Most Contented Human I Know

It was a great privilege to have been mothered by you, we are blessed, and eternally grateful for the gift of you to our world.

I cannot begin to say how much I will miss you because I will never stop missing you anyway...

We take solace in the word of God that says:

"13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him". (1Thess. 4:13-14)

May your soul continually rest in the bosom of your maker.

Happy new year!!!
