Create the atmosphere you need and the rain you deserve will fall


Everything in life is built with a structure 

Sometimes, the structure is people

Doing it alone and doing it on your own isn't the same thing

You can do it on your own but you mustn't do it alone

If not having any friends is your excuse

Then whose fault is that?

Most people believe they are not social or friendly enough to make friends

But they have people they they chat and laugh with online

They stay up all night, chatting and socializing, flirting and fraternizing 

Nobody is really alone, we are just lonely 

The truth is, we attract who and what we are

But... We can attract who we want to become even better

It all boils down to creating the right space that such people can exist comfortably in

Someone said,  create heaven and angels will come... Create hell,  you'll only have the devil and his demons 

I needed friends who thought and reasoned like me

Because the life of a writer can sometimes be lonely and quiet

So I needed friends like me who were writers...

Friends who understood words and won't freak out when suddenly in the middle of a conversation, I bring out my pen and jotter and create with words

I didn't put up an 'ad' asking for them, I simply started writing stories, articles and experiences on my timeline, even went ahead to upload my works on other writers group I joined

It didn't take long, some amazing friends who think and write like me came knocking 

I created the atmosphere and they came.

Are you creating the right atmosphere to attract the kind of friends you need?

Or you are just living in another person's box, wishing you could break out!

Firstly, you need to recognize that you are in a box

Next, you need to visualize where you are going to

You can't break out of what you don't know, and you can't break out to where you don't know

You won't have a type, if you don't know the type of friends you need. 

Create the atmosphere you need, then the rain you deserve will fall.

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

I hate my Job

Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I ...

Riotous Love

I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
