WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE TOXIC

Image
What does TOXIC even mean? “Toxic: capable of causing serious harm to a person's health and wellbeing. ... Whether exhibited by you personally or by another major figure in your life, these behaviors can rightfully be classed as toxic because of their negative effect on your mental health and wellbeing.” - ConsciousRethink.com “A toxic relationship is any relationship that is unfavorable to you or others. The foundations of any relationship, healthy or not, are most commonly established upon mutual admiration and respect, but can, in time, become remarkably unhealthy. ... Toxic relationships can be caused by two polar opposite personality types.” - PsychologyToday.com Being toxic is a RESPONSE to a misunderstood life experience. You see, EVERYBODY can be toxic. Being toxic is a CHOICE. And it is usually permitted because of a NEGATIVE PERSPECTIVE to incidences and life. Toxicity is HOW YOU BEHAVE WHEN THINGS DO NOT GO THE WAY YOU WANT. It is a response.

ROOM 305

ROOM 305 I watched with amazement as the girls kept coming to the hotel one after the other   and each time they asked to see a guest in Room 305. He had laid out the appointments such that there was never a clash. Each young lady felt special to be identified with the guest in Room 305 leaving the room with smiles obviously with loads of cash to flaunt. I put on my investigative google and lay in wait quietly to know the runs of room 305. I never got to see who was logged in that room all through my stay. The girls were young and naive within ages 18-22 it was obvious they were students with good spoken English which gave them away. I waited in the reception on that fateful day and beckoned on the young lady waiting for the receptionist to guide her to room 305. Young lady I asked what’s your mission here she was obviously wandering what was my business in her matter. My heart was troubled I knew something was not right, I tried to make friends with her and gave

THE 7.30PM FLIGHT

Image
THE 7.30PM FLIGHT I was at a conference that ended on a Friday, the excitement of new prospects and friends made me to loose track of time. Lo and behold it was 6.45pm, my luggage I had to pick from my hotel before heading to the airport.  My guide was by my side to show me the way, the venue of the event was unfamiliar terrain.  He was a gentle young man, ever soft spoken and kind he had the full itinerary for my entire stay.  I was overly distracted with exchange of cards I didn’t know where and when my guide had passed. I got other guides to show me the way but they all had their own arrays to display How confused I got as the time was short, ‘who will show me the way’ I cried within A new friend promised to take me but she got carried away waiting along the way to make her hair; ‘don’t worry’ she quipped ‘you still have some Time, the airport is just some miles away’. A keke man came and promised to help but it was obvious he had no idea where

CELEBRATING MY BABY BROTHER

Image
The first race of life at conception you won, the run was fierce, yet you were not worn . . Your mum rejoiced at the announcement of your coming. 9 months is just a time for your forming . . Behold the day came and you were born, On that Thursday the 8th day in October of 1981 . . The Doctors quipped, the nurses wondered oh how frail he looks, and muttered if you will make the week. Today you are a victor you made the week and weeks after till this very week! . . I remember when I had to feed you to stop crying and back you when your feet were not strong to walk. Dad and Mum always knew you will pull through, despite what medical reports put them through. You have grown to a fine man today and I celebrate with you my brother.  I have always loved you to pieces and will always do.  I pray for you to fulfill Gods purpose for sending you to the world. May you see Gods hand in all your endeavor, may your home be a haven of peace and harm

MY MESMERIZING KILLER FRIEND 😳 . After a hectic work day, I lay on the sofa to relax and tuned in to NATGEO WILD channel on DSTV.   . There was this clip on two animals let’s call them ‘freddie’ and ‘koggie’ That caught my attention.   . Freddie is an interesting small size animal like a raccoon while Koggie is a naive, innocent looking laid back animal like a small size rabbit.   . I watched with amazement as Freddie was a dancer- like seriously he will twist, turn, jump even twerk to catch the attention of koggie I didn’t know animals have such dance skills. He did this many times and I wondered what he was all about. On that fateful day Freddie danced as usual but with so much somersault that got the viewer dizzy...koggie was transfixed to a spot mesmerized at Freddie’s dance skills, little did he know that the dance was a dance for freddies meal and koggie was the target. Koggie got dizzy and weakened watching his friend dance, with a swoop Freddie launched out

DEPORTATION???

It was a sunny Tuesday morning in Pretoria South Africa, April was unusually hot that year. Timothy was set to go to work and drop off his daughter Ayo and son Feranmi in school. “Ayo!!! Feranmi!!! I’m leaving! “ he muttered under his breath “what are these kids doing upstairs I thought they were set” Daddy! Shouted the ever so energetic 8 year old Fearanmi “it’s Ayo that is holding me here” the usual sibling bickering of pushing blame began. Tim had had his full of their rhetoric and took the flight of stairs to their room, with a stern face he announced to them ‘your big mummy will be coming in from Nigeria next week but with your behavior I’m afraid I will have to tell her to reschedule, I need you both to be well behaved’ Their big mummy is Tim’s sister whom the kids love so much and have been eager to see ever since their relocation to South Africa. Ayo and Feranmi’s behaviors turned to 100% perfection with immediate effect. From that day Timothy’s script to keep them
