Something Special For Someone Special

Something Special For Someone Special

 December 31st 2013, I woke up earlier than I normally will, but I was already a little late for "something". I rushed through my morning rites, and a couple of minutes later, I was where I was meant to be. A couple of minutes later, some new faces walked into the room, we were not properly introduced, but I was to work with one of them. My partner at the time picked one of them, and minutes later, we were working together and I didn't even know her name.
 By evening, it was time for the watch-night or as some of y'all will call it, cross-over service. On new year day, she was on of the first people I interacted with, we didn't talk much, it was all about getting the job done.
 By Saturday Morning we were done with the work, she and her pals went back to school, and Life was back to normal. But there was just a slight problem, I knew her name, liked her face, enjoyed her company, but didn't have her phone number. Now who does that? In this age and times?
 I waited a whole week, then went to my immediate superior asking to get her phone number. Now considering where I work, that is a very odd request which on a good day would never be met. Considering I didn't have any official role to play towards her on behalf of the company. I have no idea why or how, but he did give me her phone number. I couldn't wait to call her, minutes later we were talking on the phone, and by the end of the week we were closer than I imagined.
 We got talking and I realized we were actually very different but very similar. We shared a lot of common likes and dislikes, but stood on different grounds on lots of issues. In about two months of knowing each other, we've become best of friends, exchanged ideas and opinions, argued, agreed and disagreed, and she actually dislikes Liverpool F.C despite all I've done to win her over.
 But one thing I've come to discover, she does occupy a special place in my heart, and everyday I'm grateful to God for bringing such a gem into my life. She has actually made the year 2014 a lot more fun than it will have been without her.
 Today, she turns a year older, and I'm seizing this opportunity to wish her a happy birthday, praying her years be filled with joy, laughter, satisfaction, grace, prosperity, strength, favor, Love and lots of Peace.
 Her name is Peace, and this is Wishing You A HAPPY BIRTHDAY, with even better and grater days to come.

Crazy World, Crazy Year.

 It's a crazy world, that I realized long ago, It's been a crazy year, and it promises to get even crazier. I have no idea where to begin, Last year was great, this year is already greater. Like my pastor said, this year is going to be the greatest year we "have ever" lived, and subsequent years will be even better.
 The Job has been good, business has been fair, I'm a month away from being 22 years old, and for the first time in my adult life, I'll be spending my birthday being completely debt free. Now if you know where I'm coming from you'll know that's an awesome news.
 I already got my JAMB/UTME form, hopefully by this time next year I'll be in school. I already traveled to Port-Harcourt, I've not traveled outside Lagos in over ten years, and I'm about to go on another trip. I already read about 3 books this year, I don't think I read up to 3, other than novels in the last 3 years, Liverpool are likely to qualify for the Champions League, this time last year we were a mess, right now, mathematically, we might still win the League. My Aunt is happily married and has a son, this time last year, she was still single. My younger sister is going off to the University while my elder brother is through with his OND. My friends have got this endless list of good news for me every time we meet. I'm closer to God than I've ever been before.
 You might want to ask, why is he going on and on about himself, is he being conceited, proud, or showing off. The answer is no. I'm simply doing what the Song Writer said. Count Your Blessings, Name Them One By One.
 It's not like the year hasn't had it's challenges, but each time I look at the blessings, I just have to say "Thank You Lord".
 I already look forward to meeting and working with lots of new and incredibly awesome people, I mean people I've spent the last couple of years studying and admiring from a distance, people like Chris Ihidero, Fola Folayan, Andre Blaze, Godwin Enakhena, and many others to name a few. (You guys should be cool with me, Just a dude with lots of passion and a really big dream.)
 For everyone who is hoping for better things and better times, I pray for God's Grace and Favor upon everyone of Us.
 One thing I'm most thankful for this year is new friendships. Most Especially a "Special Someone" who I met on the Morning of the Last day of Last Year. It's been a blessing knowing You, and I can say "I've found Peace".
 I've chosen three Creeds to Live by this year, I hope you agree with me and even Join Me, as it might be a Life Changer for Us all.
 1. Remember the Sabbath Day to Keep it Holy, Remember Thy Hustle to Keep it Going.
 2. Study and Hustle Smarter, Not Harder.
 3. Don't Loose who You are, Trying to be Who "They" Want.
May this year be a Year of endless Peace, Prosperity, Favor, Grace, Growth and Blessings for everyone of Us. (Amen.)

A New Beginning In The Middle Of The Year

It's Time For A New Beginning

 It's past the middle of the year, and thanks to a tight schedule, and mostly laziness on my part, On three blogs of mine, I've been unable to put up up to ten posts this year. So I've decided to sit up and put in more effort, so today, I'll share with you my plans for the remaining part of this year.
 As some of you might have known in the past, I've been working on setting up an Audio/Music Studio for over eighteen months now, A couple of weeks ago, thanks to the help of close friends of mine, I've finally completed it and I'm trying to create awareness about it. You can do me a big favor by following any one of this links, or this one, or this one. Or follow one of the adverts to your right hand side. Kindly like one of my facebook pages, it will go a long way in helping with the publicity.
 I intend to share a couple of pictures from the studio with you over the next couple of weeks.
 I also decided to do a lot more reading, with a minimal of One book every month, and I'll share my thought on the contents of these books with you, as well as my views on some music, and movies I'll be listening to and watching from now on. I'll share with you lessons I learnt from them. I'll be focusing more on the creative content, as well as asking or answering any moral, spiritual, scriptural, social, political, romantic, or educational question that arises from them. I'll try as much as possible to avoid talking about the technical aspects of them.
 I'll try to see a couple of Nigeria movies, I actually can't remember the last time I saw a Nigerian Movie. Although I do know there has been significant improvement in recent days.
 Thanks to discussions with close friends of mine, I've decided to try to attend a t least one event every month. Probably a concert, comedy show, or art related event. I don't know if going to the cinemas or attending a social event like Marriage or Naming Ceremony will qualify as an outing, but I intend to share with you my experiences at such outings.
 One thing I'm looking forward to right now is the start of the 2013/2014 Football Season in England, and for those of you who might be wondering, I'm a fan/supporter of Liverpool F.C (Y.N.W.A). I intend to give my review/opinion of every match we play next season.
 I'll share more of my Love Interest or should I say "Experiences" with you. Here is a hint, I think I've found "Her". I'll share more gist about "Her" here or on GreatestJoswil.Wordpress.com
 I'll also keep writing about my church activities, sharing the good news with you all, and for those of you who might be wondering, I'm a member of the Deeper Life Bible Church, and you can learn more about the church here.
  I've also decided to start posting Infographics at Tipsyjoswil.Blogsopt.com
 Not to bore you, I think this post is already long enough, so I'll say say my goodbye now.

She's got 19 of them, That's kinda cutely scarey.

 A couple of my close friends know fully well that I'm not a fan of tattoos, just as they know I'm crazy about Rihanna. So it wouldn't come as a surprise to them that I was drawn to this article detailing all of Rihanna's Inks.
 I had to share this with y'all before she inks up a new tattoo. But then, I'll be the first to admit that tattoos can be really "uglyfing" or in plain English, it can make you really ugly. But every once in a while, I do meet some people who look cute with their Inks.
 Just so Y'all know, I have no plans of getting inked up, not now, not ever.
 Special thanks to TheFrisky.com for the pix.

A Relationship summarized in one Picture.

 The above picture summarizes almost every relationship. It starts out with the guy doing all the work, trying to win the girls heart, attention, commitment and for him to become her "one and only". At this point, He'll do anything for her, give up anything she doesn't like, make any sacrifice for her, and only her opinion matters to him, as her thought, attention and presence is worth the world to him. He'll pick new habits and drop any old habit she might not approve of.
 When she finally commits fully to him, he relaxes a little, making her put in as much effort as he is putting in. At this point, they always have to meet halfway on every issue. Here, he begins to show her the real him, which he had to bury before. They begin to spend less time together, and if they don't begin to spice up the relationship, then they are heeding for the rocks.
 The final stage is the point at which the guy has seen all there is to see, or known all about the girl, he is bored with her, and begins to look for new adventures, probably in other girls. The girl meanwhile has sacrificed a lot for the relationship, probably putting a gap between her and other guy, so as to be exclusive with her "boyfriend". In the process, she has lost a couple of friends, or had problem with her parents, family, friends, and other people who use to matter in her life. To ensure she doesn't loose everything, including her worth, self respect and dignity, she'll do everything within and even attempt beyond her strength to keep the guy loyal to her.
 A way to ensure longevity of relationships is to spend more time in the company of other friends, thereby ensuring that the time you spend together educates you on not only yourselves, but also how you relate with others as a couple. You should also be honest about your interest from the start, and get to spend time learning about each others passion, interest and hobby. Because the more time you spend doing things you each love doing before you became a couple, the more you'll love one another.
 In the main time, I'll go back to my task of finding "The One".

A Book and A Pen

 I have no idea what's the attraction between me and blank pages, but one thing I do know is that you give me a blank page, a pen, and a free space, and I can write about virtually any subject that comes to mind.
 I just love books, and I mean all kind of books, from novels, to historical, comical to educational, but there is something about blank pages. It just calls out to you, asking you to fill it with whatever you like, you could decide to draw, or write a play, music, poem, whatever comes to mind.
 An book never rejects your choice of writing, it just accepts whatever you put on it, it is silent, giving you a clear head to think, and do what ever you feel like.
 A blank page stands for Life, Creativity, Innocence, Beauty, Imperfection, Perfection, Openness, Receptiveness, Friendship, New Beginning, Purity, and everything Positive.
 It can be your best companion if you know how to use it well. Interestingly, books and pen is what I spend the most of my money on right from my primary to secondary school, as well as after my school days. I could spend a fortune on books, just so I can put my thoughts to papers.
 My most priced material possession has to be my books, you may mess with me, my money, or any of my other belonging. But the moment you lay a hand on my book, without my permission, trust me, You've crossed a line.
 I can't believe I'm actually talking this much about blank pages, I think it's time I stop writing this, before someone begins to think I've gone bonkers.
