The miracle we want wants us too.
We just need to pay the price attached to every phase of it.
Rejection is a price to pay.
Criticism is a price to pay.
Delay is a price to pay.
Every blessing has a preparation season.
What our bodies absorbed as children is very different from what many of us expose them to today.
Back then as a kid, for skin and hair, it was usually shea butter, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, or olive oil.
Today, we rub countless products on our bodies in the name of skincare, beauty, and self-care.
The same way we eat and swallow food is the same way whatever we wear or rub on our bodies gets absorbed through our sweat back into our bodies.
I remember, as a child, that if I walked past my grandmother and she could still smell detergent on my clothes, she would call me back immediately to change into something else and put what I was wearing in the laundry bag…
At the time, it made no sense to me.
Back then, clothes were washed and rinsed thoroughly... not once, not twice, sometimes three or four times.
Same with toothpaste, there are people today who would rather keep a dirty mouth than brush with certain modern toothpastes if they cannot find charcoal, a chewing stick, or a truly herbal alternative.
As funny as it may sound, the things we call “old-fashioned” today kept us more alive back in the days.
Some people don't care how expensive your body cream is or how flawless your skin looks.
If it isn't made from the natural oils they trust, they won't use it.
The same conversation applies to relaxers, hair products, etc... Everything we put on our bodies becomes part of us for more than 24 hours and that is ticktock to either happiness or sorrow.
The illnesses we fear the most may not always arrive as strangers... sometimes they live in the same house with us, eat with us, drink with us for 365 days a year.
The attached screenshot is a research of what used to be my fav brand for both body & hair as of last year. It is a very popular and well-recommended cream/soap in Nigeria.
If only many of you would take your time to understand the things you survive on, maybe then you would get a clear understanding that cancer, kidney issues, etc., don't just appear from anywhere.
Health is wealth.
On guard ❤️.
Someone asked if all these paparazzi for cows are necessary.
1. Cows are very emotional animal - their body responds to their emotions especially dairy Cattle. If they're happy they produce more milk, if they're sad they won't produce milk. That's why dairy farmers ensure they're well cared for.
Don't be surprised there's music in the background, it relaxes them and they produce more milk, some farms in Europe have TV in their shed that shows cartoons, they'll be happy & produce more milk - this is fact based on research.
Cows has best friends in the herd, if your remove the best friend maybe sell or k!||, they'll be sad or upset and it affects milk production (imagine how emotionally traumatized Naija cows dey)
2. Why do they have AC in the Shed.
The cattle breed in the video is Simmental breed, they have a very low heat tolerance. The heat affects the male sperm quality or breeding capacity while the female will have drastic low milk yield or even dëæth. I think the weather was hot that's why the cooling system is set up.
One reason why Vom in Plateau State is the dairy capital of Nigeria (that's where exotic breeds (Friesian etc) of cattle in Nigeria are reared) the cold temperature helps dairy Cattle to produce more milk, reducing stress.
If you want to set up and enjoy your dairy farm, carry your exotic cattle to Jos plateau the weather will help your business.
Sad Fact:
Nigeria's local breed milk yields an average of 1.5 - 2.5 litres per cow per day while Friesian yields 24-38 litres per day.
It begs the question why are our local breed the lowest milk producing breed in the world?
Dem go waka north to south, herders go beat them, no water, sometimes no feed, no medicine remember cows are emotional animals - to see that 1.5 litres seff na pump and beg!
Anyways happy weekend to you.

For some people, freedom means doing whatever they want.
For others, it means having enough money to stop worrying.
Still for others, freedom means waking up without fear... speaking without pretending... having control over your time, your mind, and your direction.
Many people are free on paper but trapped by doubt, debt, addiction, approval, or circumstances.
Our definition of freedom is different because freedom is not just the absence of chains.
It is the presence of peace.
So...
At the end of the day, we are all searching for the same thing… a mind that rests, a heart that is settled, and a life that feels accomplished.
#Freedom.
One of the best things you can do for yourself is never to stop reminding yourself that you are not perfect.
We all make mistakes... We all have blind spots that others can see more clearly than we can.
So...
1. Understand that progress is the goal, not perfection... Stay teachable.
2. Stay humble... But unfuckwithable.
3. Stay growing... The greatest enemy of growth is the belief that you have already arrived.
No matter how intelligent, successful, or gifted we are… There will always be something about us we cannot see.
And that is why we judge ourselves by our intentions while the rest of the world judges us by our actions.
That gap is where many of our blind spots live and it is not something we can just hide.
So, be open to learning more about YOU from others who are “genuinely” concerned about you, because the bond you share allows them to see you from an angle you cannot see yourself.
And yes, in some situations… there are people who can explain who you are better than you can explain who you are.
Why?
You know your intentions.
They experience your actions.
You know the battles happening inside your mind.
They see the decisions those battles produce.
They notice and identify patterns quickly.
Stay teachable.
Enjoy June. ✌️
