@Auriel_zy You are not married yet,so when you get married we will come back this conversation. So please stop this your imagination before it will wound you
To be honest, telling our youth that our Nation was created for prayers and not innovation it's deceptive and destructive, and to abandon that prayer Nation, as one of us and even our teacher, for a Nation that the youths are creative and innovative, is not only deceptive and manipulative but it's also wickedness
“Tinubu didn’t do anything in Lagos, the only Governor that did a lot in Lagos is Lateef Jakande and now he’s doing one coastal road that’s going to finish in about 30 years, fuel is 1400, what reforms has he done?
Serious argument between 2 people living in the Uk about Tinubu and his reforms
'For now, the bridge will be decorated with the pictures of President Tinubu. Once we are done with work on this bridge, I want all the illegal adverts on this bridge removed.' — Minister of Works Dave Umahi says
This thread is going to be long.
So please take time to read it when you're able to.
Every generation is meant to stand on the shoulders of the one before it.
A good father desires his son to become not merely a copy of himself, but a better version of what he started.
Likewise, a loving mother hopes her son grows into a man of integrity, wisdom, and responsibility. The purpose of family is not stagnation but progress.
A father is often a son's first example of manhood. Whether through his successes, sacrifices, mistakes, or virtues, he teaches lessons that no classroom can fully replicate.
Looking up to one's father does not mean believing he is perfect. Every father is human and will have strengths and weaknesses. Rather, it means recognizing the value of his journey, his sacrifices, and the wisdom gained through his experiences.
A son who respects his father gains several advantages:
1. He learns discipline and responsibility.
2. He understands the value of hard work and perseverance.
3. He gains insight from lessons already paid for through his father's struggles.
4. He develops a sense of identity and belonging.
A wise son studies both what his father did right and what he did wrong. The father's victories become examples to follow, while his failures become lessons to learn from.
To become better than one's father is not an act of disrespect. In fact, it is one of the highest forms of honor.
A father who built a small business hopes his son builds a larger one. A father who attained a certain level of education hopes his son goes further.
A father who overcame poverty hopes his son experiences prosperity. Progress is the natural goal of every healthy family line.
Being "better" does not necessarily mean earning more money. It can mean:
1. Having greater emotional intelligence.
2. Being a better husband.
3. Being a more present father.
4. Living with more integrity.
5. Making wiser decisions.
The true measure of success is not merely wealth but becoming a more complete and mature individual.
If each generation only equals the previous one, society stands still. If each generation improves upon the last, families flourish.
A mother often makes sacrifices that are unseen and uncelebrated. She carries, nurtures, protects, teaches, comforts, and often puts the needs of her children above her own.
Honoring a mother involves more than words. It means:
1. Speaking respectfully to her.
2. Appreciating her sacrifices.
3. Supporting her when she grows older.
4. Protecting her dignity.
5. Showing gratitude for her role in your life.
A man's treatment of his mother often reveals much about his character. If he cannot appreciate the woman who raised him, it becomes difficult for him to fully appreciate other women in his life.
Honoring a mother does not require agreement with every opinion she holds. Mature honor can coexist with independent thinking.
A son can make his own decisions while still showing love and respect.
One of the most important decisions a man will ever make is choosing a wife.
A wife becomes:
1. A life partner.
2. A confidant.
3. A supporter during difficult seasons.
4. A co-builder of the family.
5. The future mother of his children.
A good wife contributes not only to a man's happiness but also to his growth and stability.
When choosing a wife, a man should evaluate qualities such as:
1. Character.
2. Kindness.
3. Emotional maturity.
4. Wisdom.
5. Loyalty.
Beauty may attract attention, but character sustains relationships.
A wise man understands that the person he marries will influence the direction of his life for decades. Therefore, choosing a spouse should be guided by wisdom rather than impulse.
• St. Padre Pio says;
"Whenever the tempter wants you be puffed up with pride, say to yourself ~~~ all that is good in me i have received from God on loan and I should be a fool to boast on what is not mine."
