Your Smile Might Be All (S)he Needs

-

Hi friends, I hope you all had a splendid week?  I had a great week as well, thank God.

Yeah, so, moving on to what I'll talk about today. It's going to be quite short LOL (Yeah, I'll spare you my long talks. Just for now though), and it might be long. Who knows?

I'll be talking about one amazing fruit of the spirit, and that fruit of the spirit issss *drumroll* KINDNESS!!! 

Before I start though there's one song I used to sing as a kid. Lemme just write out the lyrics (it's not long)

Sing a song of Joy
Sing a song of happiness
Do a deed of kindness today
Do a deed of kindness 
Do a deed of Kindness everyday

THE END (not the end of this post o)

Many of us know that as Christians, we should be kind and all, because it shows the Holy Spirit is in us, but how many of us are actually kind? It should be who we are.
Kindness isn't until you give someone one million dollars, naira or pounds. You don't have to have a lot until you're kind.  It the little things that count.

E.g helping an Old woman cross the road even though you're a bit late (I saw someone do it and I was touched). There are so many ways you can be kind to people.  You don't even have to DO. You can SAY as well. You can be kind with your words, if someone says awful stuff to you, you don't have to reply rudely or whatever (it's somewhere in the Bible that Soft words turn away wrath. Okay, Proverbs 15 verse 1) . If someone is having a bad day, your kind words will definitely go a long way. Your smile might even be all the person needs at that moment.

There was a time I was feeling very moody and all, I told my friend and he tried to bring me out of the mood, didn't work, and even if it did, it lasted for a short period. Some hours later he put up a picture of me smiling and a lovely caption as well. Honestly that wasn't much, but it was enough to make my evening. I felt really happy and special.  That was Just to show you it doesn't have to be a very grand gesture.

Try not to be a selfish person, because a selfish person never thinks about others. It's always ME ME ME. Try to put others before you, I promise, you'll feel good.

Do a deed of Kindness everyday. Much love guys.

THE REAL END.

Yorubas; greeting and respect. We do it for the culture!

Feeling: Lazy. Wanna be in bed all day Time : 6:44a.m Lol this post was scheduled for a day in May, but NYSC decided to scatter it. So, I'm just writing it. If you're Nigerian say "yo!" More specifically, if you're Yoruba say "ayyeee." This post is going to be about our culture and one very important aspect of it - Greetings and Respect . I hear that the Yoruba culture is probably the most respectful culture not only in Nigeria, but in the whole world. I wouldn't disagree with that if it's true. The proper way for a girl to greet elders is for her to go down on her knees and for the guys, they prostrate. Imagine during the trad wedding, going to greet the girl's parents and not fully prostrating!!!!  Just know you have forfeited the girl. Growing up, my parents weren't crazy crazy fans of going down fully on your knees to greet them in the morning, though I remember one time, when I was probably 12 or 13, my daddy said we s

Some Kinna delicious sweet potato meal. RECIPE!

Feeling: cuddly  Time: 7:57am The last time I made this, my brother called it Fifi's casserole (well, that's cos I made it in the oven). Now that I made it in a pan, I wonder what he'd call it.   I feel like this meal had already existed before I thought about it; like I wasn't the first to think it up, well, that's okay I guess. The first time I made this was during my service year, I was super tired of eating the same old meals and I felt like whipping up something new. That's one thing about me; I think about things I've never eaten before, make them a reality; sometimes, good, sometimes, not so good. (I made some kind of toast in a pan the other day, I had it with ketchup. Yeah, bread and ketchup. My brothers were sneering at it, I told them they had to taste it, they did, and made a whole batch for themselves.) So let me show you how I made this quick, super easy and delicious food. It probably takes 40 minutes or less than. Peeling the pota

Conscious Living- Life isn't ROCK, PAPER ,SCISSORS. SHOOT!

Hello fam, good day and welcome to Fifi's diary. How'd your week go? Mine was great actually.I had time for myself. Why do I feel so sleepy? It's just 12:37pm and I even had a second round of sleep. Anyways, straight to the point. You see, this morning, I made a decision to start  living consciously. As a growing woman or lady, or whatever, I believe that every decision I make should be made consciously.I do not want to find myself in a particular place and wonder how I got there, I do not want to be in a relationship (general) and wonder how I got there.. This was what brought about the thought this morning, it might seem unrelated but... I was preparing breakfast, no one was in the house, the help was in her room. I wasn't raised with a help around the house, and I don't plan on raising my kids with any help doing stuff for me. As I was cooking, it just crossed my mind that " Lois, in a few years you'll be a mother and wife by God's grace is that h
