Morning Inspiration: Running Into His Hands

 

This life is so full of beautiful moments. All you have to do is open your eyes and your heart to see them. I saw one just the other day. The local elementary school had just let out and I found myself behind a school bus as I was driving home. The bus stopped by a house sitting on top of a hill. A little girl no more than 7 years old hopped down the bus steps and started running up the driveway toward the house. The smile on her face was contagious. Her long hair was bouncing off her shoulders and her pink backpack was trailing behind her as she ran. I looked up the hill to see where she was going and saw her Dad waiting on her. As she got closer and closer her Dad smiled and knelt down to greet her. The second she got to him he wrapped his powerful arms around her and gave her a huge hug.

Ramsey Noah On CNNVOICES, Talks Nollywood, Politics and Endorses GEJ

CNNVoices caught up with our very own Nigerian actor, Ramsey Noah, he talked about the Nigeria film industry(Nollywood), politics, his presidential candidate for the 2015 election. And also some fans sent in questions via twitter which the Actor replied.
CNN: How have you seen Nollywood change and grow over the years?
Ramsey Nouah: There have been several phases in Nollywood, like in everything in life. We started off Nollywood almost like making bread out of stone; there was nothing, no investment, no structure, nothing on the ground to actually help the industry but we've brought it this far and we are very happy.

CNN: So what have you learned throughout this journey?
RN: I learned a whole lot of lessons, when the chips were high -- many people knew me and everything but I was so deeply passionate about the industry that I wanted growth and I wanted something better.
I wanted Nollywood to look like Hollywood and Bollywood, I wanted it to have that appeal ... and at some point in my industry it wasn't happening. Because I'm one of the very top actors, knowing that with my influence I could make a difference, I decided at some point ... to be like "look guys, lets upgrade, the new technologies are coming, how do we move forward."
Most of the people I was working with wanted to live in that mindset, and I felt "no, I need to make a change,"... and then I was just picking movies deliberately that I knew would stand the test of time as I grow old.

12 Words Some Women Use and What they Mean

Sometimes women tend to say some simple words to men but those words are usually not as simple as they are said. You need to look deep to connote the meaning of these words with the facial signs that comes with it. The 12 words are listed below....

FINE

This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right and you need to shut up. Never use "fine" to describe how a woman looks - this will cause you to have one of those arguments.

 

FIVE MINUTES

This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so it's an even trade.

 

NOTHING

This means "something," and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards! "Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end with "Fine"

I Hope You Dance

This was written by an 83-year-old woman to her friend.
* The last sentence says it all. *

Dear Bertha,

I'm reading more and dusting less. I'm sitting in the yard and admiring the view without fussing about the weeds in the garden. I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time working.
Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experiences to savor, not to endure. I'm trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them.

I'm not "saving" anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, or the first Amaryllis blossom.
I wear my good blazer to the market. My theory is if I look prosperous, I can shell out $28.49 for one small bag of groceries. I'm not saving my good perfume for special parties, but wearing it for clerks in the hardware store and tellers at the bank.

"Someday" and "one of these days" are losing their grip on my vocabulary. If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.

Word For Today: Joy comes in the Morning

When I look around I see his presence, his very touch on things within and without. The night before was indeed dark but this morning he has brought forth his joy to rekindle our hearts towards him.

We will rejoice and be glad because he has come to lighten our burden.  His joy never cease it is in everything he has made and we recognize this joy when we desire to know him more.

India is synonymous with rape. God help them

Comrade Mark warns against Use of the Card Readers in the 2015 Election.

 Sponsored Post

As the day’s draws close for the election, it is expedient to warn INEC about the impending disaster waiting to happen if the card readers are used in the March/April 2015 Elections. INEC should be warned because there are manipulations on the card readers been spear-headed by the opposition party APC. The APC as a party has continued to have secret meetings on how to win the upcoming election by force through rigging.

Nigerians should not trust the fake agent of change masked around the APC propaganda. The  APC was against the postponement of the February  14th election, reasons being because they have orchestrated the manipulation of the card readers and they even went ahead to  print their own fake PVCs which they plan  to use in rigging the election. But the timely intervention of Prof Attahiru Jega, who admitted before the National Assembly that over one million PVCs are yet to be printed in faraway China. According to the INEC boss the call for postponement was a real blessing in disguise, because of the inadequate preparation from INEC in distributing the PVCs and the constant bombing in the North-East. Yet, the opposition party APC has blamed the Presidency and PDP for postponing the election, which was done at the discretion of the INEC boss.

Word For Today: Glimpses of Heaven

I have always loved watching the sunset. I do so every chance I can. There is something about it that stirs my soul. I sit on my back porch and watch as the sky becomes a tapestry of ever changing colors. Blue, white, yellow, gold, red, orange, pink, and purple all weave together to create something so beautiful and so glorious that it is transcendent. When you look at it for a brief instant it is like you are getting a glimpse of Heaven.

Its not late! Happy Mothers Day!!!

She has a pretty face,

She adorns herself in apparels,

But her pretty embodiment,

Is a beauty beneath the facial,

Within her is the availability of,

Care, tolerance, perseverance

And the unconditional love

We all have savoured all our Life.

She is a mother,

Whose breast I  had sucked for life,

Whose hands still cuddle me.

Mama! She dreams for me even when

My visions were blurred,

Her desired wants traded for,

My expected future/ambition.

Your clothes for mine,

Your Comfort for mine.

Nne Oma! Even when papa was down,

You stood tall but never taller than him,

You stood in the gap, You stayed on.

Mama hid her tears when I cry ,

She stays awake all night,

Just to watch me get well,

A mother’s worries never stops.

I call her blessed for she has

Knitted her family in love,

Knitted her hands in work

To bring bread to our table.

Even papa is proud of her.

She is a total woman.

I am proud of her

Because from her I came forth.

Mother! I salute your courage

I hail thee for the life you bring forth,

Your virtues are priceless.

Nneoma, may your days be long,

Long enough to enjoy your children.

Our mothers, we love you.
Ndi nne mama!!!
