Siblings Rivalry

-

Well, this topic, I can relate with it right from when I was 2 years old, that was when I got my baby brother, and my life changed in multi directional ways.
Siblings rivalry is an age long topic that has always been there, it can't disappear, because most people got siblings. Sometimes, it's the best you could ever wish for, and on other days, you would want to pull your hair out of frustration, and just shout or cry. (Personal experience)
I have a younger brother, that towers over me with his height and practically bullies me, though we are partners and best friends . And other times, I just want to slap the living daylight out of him.  The truth is most of us can relate to this, even as an only child,with cousins and younger relatives.
I have seen siblings with a huge rift between themselves and I'm like,  how did it ever get to this. Siblings fighting so much and causing havoc to themselves and their family. Some won't even look at or acknowledge themselves most times. They don't even do anything together, and it builds and gets into the next generation.
It's dangerous to the health of the family and the society at large.
The bad blood should not even develop, should've been avoided from the beginning with love and affection that is bound to be there as kids.
Now this is all there is to it,  it can't disappear, don't work yourself up,  it's part of the fun. Go with the flow,  command respect in either ways as the younger or older sibling. Respect one another, the bullies and the quarrels would continue, but do not allow negative sentiments set in,  that's when the joy of being a sibling and having a sibling is manipulated. Enjoy all the moments, even the fights, don't pull so much of your hair out. You can shout all you want, but he/she would do it again. And trust me,  you'd reminisce and laugh about it on good days. 
Do prevent the bad blood from creeping into the blood of yourself and your siblings, you'd turn back and regret it terribly.

The Smart Money Woman: Book Review

-

Hi you, long time no see, I’ve been a little doubtful about a few things, and I felt the need to put things in place, and create content for and with myself before stringing sentences that I want to make sense. Anyways, I’ve taken to reading books more often than I’ve indulged myself in. All kinds of books; faith based, motivational, memoirs, novels, money based, and others. The goal is to learn as much as I can while filtering what is meant for me and disposing what isn’t by the help of the Holy Spirit, of course, as per teacher extraordinaire  I won’t be doing a review on all the books, just a few as the Spirit leads #winks Moving on, this review is about the recent book I just completed which I’m actually thrilled about; The Smart Money Woman by Arese Ugwu, a beautiful woman and best selling author by the way.  This book is a few years old, you might have read it, or I might just be the one introducing it  to you. I would recommend it, if you know you do...

So, my two weeks working holiday has been interesting, eventful, and had left me with a sore back and bumbum from hours of sitting in danfo ‘Lagos yellow bus’ (that signifies your presence in Lagos) School and exams have been overwhelming and I’m looking forward to holidays, because in my mind, I’m gonna flex and chill, hang out with friends and a lot of that sturv, I legit had plans. Then, on getting home, with the confirmation that I’m not gonna flex as much for lack of funds (cos I’m not broke in Jesus name) I’m like “okay, at least if I’m not flexing, I should go out sha” Somehow somehow, God helps me, I get a job.. Hallelujah, I was so excited when I got the call, I was legit dancing, and I even offered to cook jollof rice for my family that night, cos I do not offer to cook on a Sunday night, I’m always forced. In all this jubilation, I’ve forgotten that I live in ‘Egbeda’ and the job is in ‘Yaba’ and I have to go everyday which is about 1hr 30 minutes assuming t...
