You want to be like who? Come on........Seriously? Ok let's see, the person(s) that you admire so much, you cannot be like them realistically. Sorry for bursting that bubble. It's not practical, so get up, walk to the mirror and find the person you know best- yourself. Yay!!!!!!
Being yourself is amazing. Being honest to yourself is healing and empowering, actually its the only cure to low-self esteem. You might be in pain, you might have been hurt from a past relationship, or might be having some infinite challenges with work, school, or relationships, but trust that these pitfalls are not lifelong.
Being yourself is heavenly. Your experiences are the building blocks to your future, the outcome is what you make of it. Be brave to decide to become the person who dream to be. Find the motivational tools to spark the flames of positive desire and keen interest in becoming the man/woman you aspire to be.
You uniqueness is enough to fuel your future success. The self confidence you have grows each day, and its big enough to curtail you towards your goals in life. We too once said we wanted to be like "this person, and that person", however, being ourselves has yielded to more successess , and more accomplishments.
I believe in us, and I believe in you being your best at yourself. In all things compare yourself with yourself. It's ok to have mentors, and positive role models, just remember that you live your own life, and therefore your self-confidence in achieving success, peace of mind and at peace at heart is based on your efforts in life.
You still want to be like "him or her"?
Oh oh! This is the moment we both long for, this time of the night is special- don't get no silly ideas, yet. Just imagine though, never mind, don't imagine. Back to the point, after a day of just watching time pass by, or a hard day's work, we jump into bed, and the bed engulf's us, and we sigh simultaneously, sometimes synchronously, then we talk, then I talk I should say, because some "sleeper" only require 3 seconds to fall for sweet sleep:>. Maybe a sign of early tranquil aging- I'm quite unsure!
The Kiss Goodnight
Symbolizes the beauty in our relationship after all the toils of the day. Even when we disagree, through that kiss we are able to compromise. It's "childishly" a highlight moment of reassurance as we journey to dreamland and wake to reality. Then the Prayer.
God has been good to us.
We pray that He be good to you and yours, forever, and ever, and ever.
Amen!

Work hard, work smart, work with all that you've got.
All of these are concrete power-points for love. First there's the honeymoon phase where you're both angelic, then, there's reality. There are chore's, responsibilities, expectations, dedications and commitments. Fear not, all of this is doable, be optimistic, be patient, and Yes! You Can!
It's hard-work man! However, it's more profitable than your full-time job. The peace of mind, the soul food, heart desires and the warm, huggable, and cuddly night sleeps, beats all the odds. The peace of mind is worth more than gold.
So many people thrive for material needs, but your best investment is love. It's the ultimate truth.
Love is successful only with hard-work; dedication, commitment, respect for each other, and trust.
In the past, we've sought counseling from our parents, our pastor, and through knee-to-floor prayers, and trust- it's been a success story, and one that is cherished each day, and appreciated more with each second of time.
We do expect challenges, and that's with anything you do in life, but we always remind ourselves that these challenges will not last a lifetime. With optimism, courage, commitment, dedication blended with spirituality, we rest assured that you will make it.
And so will you.

It's truthful and certain to say that having a good relationship can be the best thing one can hope for in a lifetime. Be it a friendship, marriage, or family, the perks in a healthy relationship joyfully overshadows the many potential barriers in life.
In many of our post's we have emphasized on loving each other, and loving ourselves, we see these components as ultimate strongholds to a healthy relationship. A healthy relationship entails all the "good things" that you want to happen for your relationship.
We are neither relationship experts nor counselor's- we are simply lovers. Therefore, we do not anticipate to set a stage for expert opinions. If you doubt our tips to a healthy relationship, feel free to "keyboard it out". Our Love Speaks For Itself
1. Respect each other at all times
No matter what situation you're in, whether you're at home or in public, talk to each other with respect and dignity. You're all grown up now, no more crying and dragging yourself to the ground or sucking your thumb in public. Relationship is no stage to test how emotionally feeble you're, it's a stage to mature into a new milestone. Get it together.
2. Stay healthy: Limit your alcohol intake, save yourself some money, and for the sake of the monstrous cost of healthcare, stay healthy. Eat a low sodium, high fiber diet, well portioned size meals, cut down carbonated beverages, cut down on the fried foods, bake, grill, and exercise. Walk, run, some strength training is ideal also.
Decide to live. Live your lifetime to the best of you, for the sake of the Love you share in your Relationship

The Love I have for my father is one that is unique, and it really feel's good to write about him. Simply put, because he's amazing. I'm very proud of my father, and I'm proud of my dad. I wish I could remember the look on his face when he had his first son: An African King.
In my eye's he's an African King. My father has always put family first, and he continues to play a vital role in our lives. He's thought me dedication, commitment, determination, family, charisma, kindness, and leadership- just to name a few. Also, how to dress, my brother's and I always had nice suits and ties' matching shoes- you name it- Pop's made sure we looked as cool as him- Always!!!!
Pops is cool dad. He's too cool man! He's full of ideas.
The suits the ties, the shirts, the shoes, the man has his own "swag".
As a child, I was always excited when we had to talk about our parents in school, they both had professions, yet, they found plenty of time for us. It felt good to say "my father is an accountant".
We had the yearly Christmas parties as kids, with the big cake, soft drinks, the highlight drink was Fanta, Mirinda, Coca Cola and Pepsi- I remember we had Kool Aid kind'a drink- all with Jollof and some "chips". We had great times with all the kids in the neighborhood swamped into our home year after year.
Much Love Dad
Love you Dad

Failing, ugh!
So disappointing, just the feeling of not being able to achieve a set goal used to be nauseating to me. I
used to say, I hate to fail. Guess what? I've grown to appreciate the failure as effort in trying.
I never thought that Failure would be a good motivational friend o mine, it has become my new friend, I have redefined it in my life, and replaced it with "a first attempt". I barely say it, rather, I say, my "first attempt" needs more effort- I gotta work harder at it next time. It gears me up to set higher goals.
I once thought of becoming a DJ. At first, barely did I get any positive reviews, for this reason, I spent countless hours practicing, and practicing, and practicing.
The picture below shows an audience of 500 people who danced their hearts out to great music I played in Europe, 2005.

Our bonding has been quite a remarkable one. Filled with interesting and face tingling moments. Continuously, we've learned more and more about each other, and with each moment of truth, we water the favored newness, or we wither its roots from our bonding process if it doesn't fit.
We continue to appreciate the true essence of life, the concept of love and family, and the relevance of human kindness.
We wholeheartedly mean Love only, and by God's grace we will continue to become positive role models for our society. We aspire to work like ants, and reap like elephants.
Relationship is to work smart like an ant, plan, communicate, coordinate, and implement only with spiritual guidance. Hopefully, these pictures do not fool you to assume its been a walk in the park...no no no buddy, it's all hard work that has yielded this heavenly peace and love.
Tomorrow has its own blessings and challenges, with Love and God, breakthrough's are always possible.
God Bless Our Love
