A note for intentional lovers:
You deserve love that doesn’t hurt. Love that doesn’t want to do you any intentional harm. Love that wants to see you through. Love that always means you well. Love that has something real to offer you. & love, you’re never unsure about it.
vi uma mulher falando que o namorado dela ficou tão nervoso na hora de pedir ela em casamento que ele esqueceu tudo e acabou só ficando de joelhos falando “por favor”.
eu quero isso.
People who tell tough truths in gentle ways. The little-things-oriented. Big picture thinkers. Dreamers. Deep feelers. Old souls. Young spirits. Goofballs. Those who don't make you choose between what's right for you and most convenient for them. The person who is listening to understand, not just waiting for their turn to speak. The ones you can share your fears with. Quiet good-doers. Humans who can admit when they're wrong (or when they don't know the answer to something). Folks who truly understand their privilege. People who aren't afraid to take the last slice of pizza. The friends who make you forget your phone. Anyone who reminds you that lovely things still exist.
12 life hacks for You:
1. Before you screenshot a WhatsApp conversation as evidence, delete or unsave the contact first so that the number shows and not the name. It carries more weight that way.
2. If you inherit land or property alongside a sibling and your portions share the same space, fence out your own immediately. Do not assume your brother cannot betray you. Blood does not cancel greed.
3. Save every important document on Google Drive or any cloud storage. WAEC results, birth certificate, property documents, everything. The day your house gets flooded or robbed, you will be grateful.
4. Set up a separate phone number strictly for online transactions and registrations. Keep your main number private. It reduces spam, fraud attempts and SIM swap risks significantly.
5. Always have a separate emergency account that you do not touch. Not a savings account, a dedicated emergency fund. Job loss, hospital bills and sudden expenses will always come. Be ready.
6. When buying land in Nigeria, do not just collect documents. Visit the land registry yourself and verify. Many people have bought land that was sold to five different people at the same time.
7. If someone wrongs you and you want to address it, never do it in the heat of anger. Wait. Sleep on it. The response you give after 24 hours is almost always better than the one you give immediately.
8. Whenever you come across content on TikTok or anywhere else where people are discussing scam tricks and fraud methods, do not just scroll past. Stop and learn them. Not to use them but to protect yourself against them.
9. Never tell anyone your exact salary. Not your friends, not your colleagues, not even some family members. The moment people know what you earn, they begin to calculate what you should be doing for them.
10. When you enter a new environment, a church, a market, a gathering, identify the exits first. It is a habit that could save your life one day.
11. Learn basic first aid. Know how to handle a choking emergency, a deep cut or a seizure. One day it will not be for a stranger. It will be for someone you love.
12. Always screenshot or record any important agreement made on WhatsApp or any platform before the other person deletes it. Evidence disappears fast.
Above all, love God.
