WHO I AM TODAY IS BECAUSE I STRUGGLED TO BE ME.

One thing you should never forget about today's write-up is the fact that "Regardless of any human being, you are You"

Everyday, we hear just about how much of a necessity it is to love yourself because it isn't just about who will love you. Trust me, some guys love "anything" but the point is, who will love you just enough? No one ever truly loves you like the way God will.

No one is going to argue that with me I hope because then I would have to call down my God for such individual. Lol

Okay Guys, so today ' talk is about the  Crazy Debby and her hilarious Job Interview. She's here again  I can't assure you it is the last time but...


I LOVE ME,
Simply fascinated by what I have become,
Many times I look stupid to anyone I tell my pain because of how much smile I wear everyday. But that's the fun about being a Debby.

I love me for my scars and my pain.
I love me for being that Softie, for being weak and strong at the same time.
I love me for times I cry and sob silently, chewing my aches and baring my lonely nights.

I love me for loving and caring for the wrong people that I hoped were mine forever.

I love me for my heart breaks, the disappointments and the setbacks.

I love me for the blades that marked my skin and the blood that gently poured out.

For picking up the broken pieces of my heart and making a sweet melody out of it was the most beautiful thing I ever did.

That I was cold, hard and numb at some point for reasons that were overwhelming caused me to be scared to heal, be whole and love again.

But despite everything,

I love me for desiring true love and for believing in it.

I love me for rising above rape and abuse, a story for another day...
I love me for the times memories terrified me, the times I wasn't tough enough to stand on my own.

I love me for the times that I needed to lean on someone, the times that I needed a warm hug and a pat on my back but got none but yet my life did go on.

I love me for my slow songs and deep lyrics.

I, at some point became that emotional "thing", who all she ever wanted was a short-brief kiss on her forehead but got only another reason to grief.

Regardless, I love me for my sensational poems.

I love me for my big heart and the part of me that people took for granted.

I love me for yet easily falling deeply and caring while bracing my hurt.

Oooooooh Yeah!
One thing I'm crazy about? My  Body!
I love me for my body, and for the sides of me I wasn't much comfortable with.

I love me for my changes, my pretty eyes and soft lips.

I love me for my cute big forehead and my not so beautiful feet. lol Cheers to my forehead and that little feet!

I love for me for me why?
Because all of this including my mistakes made me sour cream, amazing, special and a little bit more human than the rest to the world.

For I am a beautiful soul, showcased in an amazing body and guarded by a wonderful spirit.

I AM ME AND NO ONE ELSE.

MY BOYFRIEND IS A BROKEASS BECAUSE HE DOESN’T LIVE ON THE ISLAND

I need a babe for the night...

Many “young girls” have a very disgusting rude mentality!

Sometime ago I was in neo coffee shop somewhere in V.I and I overhead a chitchat between a group of three girls who walked in looking physically comfortable and well-to-do. The baseline of their conversation was “I cannot date a mainland boy”. I became shocked and confused as I could not relate with the reasons to such conclusion. Lol men have indeed suffered discrimination (and some other women would be ranting about feminism).

I laughed deeply in my head and decided to take a quick mental judgment of what kind of persons they might be. My first bother was “did they come to a coffee shop to deliberate as what kind of man to date?” Or where they expecting some boxed up nigga to walk in and then they fling their interest?

I leaned back to my seat to hear them carefully as they weren’t my front view. I crossed my legs pretending I was lost in search of some forgotten inspiration. Hardly did they know I wasn't only having a cup of coffee.  The lead speaker stressed “Mainland guys are broke”

 HA!

 Not until this confession I couldn’t picture their hurt towards “our mainland men”.

For the first time I needed an extra cup of coffee. This inspiration I was in search of must have been really lost! I made an attempt to get the attention of the waiter to refill my cup as I skillfully took a better look at these girls…

“Oh hello” I said

That I would be ignored I didn’t see that coming. I shook it off. I’m used to the envy of girls, I’m pretty sure it couldn’t have been a guy. Lol

My entire opinion to some girls with this mentality is that it is better you go make a living than to be hanging around the island in search of capable men. How does the fact that a man lives on the mainland affect his income? Or his right to a big house or great ride? Unfortunately many young ladies would miss out on opportunities to get a real man when the only recognized real men are on the island with jobs or without jobs and I’m quite sure they don’t even care to know.

And to be precise, when I say “young girls” I mean mentally immature girls… It’s rather unfortunate that we have grown with the wrong ideas.

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE: THE WORD GAY

Hey guys!

Many of us have boyfriends and are happy in the relationship (probably because it’s still fresh) and some others have but are nagging and want to end the relationship.

Truthfully a lot, I mean a whole lot of us have been blind to what we search for. Isn’t it true love we want? someone to care about us and put us on his to-do list?

A person who will value us (because a lot of people these days value their value LOL) a person who wouldn’t forget our birthdays and special days.  Many of you want the girl that would make you feel secure without having to worry of another man.

 Now I ask… is “gay” actually a wrong thing or is there a better name to refer?

Before you get mad at this and close the page understand me first.

A mortal man cannot tell his fellow man he loves him unconditionally regardless of his errors, wickedness, selfishness, backbiting, incompetence and a lot more. We all know human beings cannot take all that bullshit. So that unconditional love that turns people into gays guys or lesbians? Totally absurd

Don’t get angry and shut the page yet dear.

But guys… only God really can do all this for you and me. He loves you so much so that you can’t even figure. God also wants the sweet names we call our so called boyfriend and girlfriend.

How do you find it telling God “I love you and I always will”

                                                       “You are my heart and I cant deny”

“Every breathe I take is to see your face”

“You are my adorable”

“You are my favorite”

Believe me it is that sweet. God will spoil you silly and show you in return how much he cares about you.

He isn’t like every other guy:     Boy- I love you baby

Girl- Are you sure?

Believe me; God won’t doubt your love for him. He would embrace you at all time. You think it is somehow to call God my baby boy? My sweet heart?

Have you guys forgotten we are wives to him?

Oh! But then you think it super right to call his own creation sweet names and ignore his presence?

Now you see why I asked earlier; is gay right? The word gay is crazy and yes it is a wrong thing! If our own creator loves us so much but doesn’t demand such sexual pleasure from us as much as he loves us then no man has a right to demand it from his fellow man.  For when a mortal man makes it to heaven he becomes a wife to Jesus. Gender isn’t a difference. The Lord would marry us all together with his unconditional love not by having unproductive sex and generating incurable diseases.

Let us wake every morning and develop the habit of saying “Good morning Jesus thank you for yesterday and my already settled today reveal your plan for today to me so I can get along”

Instead of rushing to your device (phone, tabs, laptops, and mailbox) to see if he or she has replied your text. God texts you everyday but how many times do you bother to read not to talk of replying?

He text you and that’s why you are awake did you reply Him by saying thank you?

Dear people you must passionately love God and be rest assured your life would be great
Good morning.

GET AN UNEDUCATED GIRL AND SPEND MONEY OR GET AN UNEDUCATED GIRL AND SPEND DOUBLE.

Yes! an educated girl is costly but at least she wont cost you everything. when and if you have an educated girl all you have to do is say "God i thank you" you know why?
Here is a  story!
A very wealthy man studied architecture in the university of Yale. Of course he is expected to see a bunch of beautiful and gorgeous women of which he did but decided to play resistant to them, not because he was moved but because he was afraid. This young man remained focused, because he felt it's waste of time and money following "those flashy girls"
When he came back to Nigeria his home-town, he settled in Lagos as he was prepared to get married.
On a Saturday evening he went to a bar to relax. A young beautiful light skinned lady, with well smacked red lipstick who wore a strapless gown approached him and said "Oga which is one?"
He was confused! then she pointed at the menu.
He smiled and said "oh! just give me red wine".
That could have been the end but instead he decided to drop his contact card with her. She looked at him and swayed from left to right with her left hand in her ear and the other on the card as she smiled
That very night, shortly after he left, she called.
"Hello, is me Christine, the girl you meet at the bar"she said
"Oh! Christine is your name" he replied...
He fixed a date and place where they would meet. This young man actually invited her to his house, and yes, of course she came.
After having drinks, he wanted to have sex with her. and her response? "no wahala".
He asked her permission to take a bath and while he was bathing his phone rang. The girl took the phone from his pocket, looked at it and of which she looked confused.
She saw "M.D", she said to herself " shey na name be dat?". She sighed and ended the call for three consecutive times.
She said nothing to him when he came out of the shower and yes, they had sex. afterwards he gave her money to go home home and promised to see her again. By the time he went to work the next day, he saw a suspension letter on his desk.
He ran off to the M.D'S office "Managing Director" and asked for his wrong. The M.D said " i called you yesterday evening and you ended my calls abruptly"
MORAL LESSON

DO PEOPLE APPRECIATE?

 All we think is that people appreciate us not until after we realize that, we were only appreciated for our good deeds towards them but yet they mark out our wrong deeds!

One good is not enough because we would be treated like we did no good, why are our wrongs or supposed wrongs always glaring in their eyes? Why can’t they overlook our little mistakes?

When people need you and you always there for them, if they need you to be there for them again and you can’t all they say is YOU DON’T CARE! 

Here is a story:

There was this group of female friends who loved and care for themselves. Kate had a best friend Foss. Camille and Kate are newly friends. One day Camille was ill so Kate went to see her with some other friends and Kate bought so many goodies for Camille and the other friends. Camille was happy, so happy!

Camille was fit now and healthy. One other friend of theirs Candy, fell sick months after so it was time for Camille, Kate and others to go see the friend candy. But this time Kate did not have money and the other friends probably did not have enough so they were to contribute. Kate insisted that she did not have money, but no one wanted to believe…

To cut our story short Camille accused Kate of not being caring that she only cares for her best friend and that made Kate feel sad. So you see people don’t remember the good you have done till they are reminded. It is sad! Do People Even Appreciate?
