FIVE KINDS OF WOMEN YOU SHOULD NEVER MARRY.

Excerpt from Praise George's "IS SHE THE WOMAN FOR ME? "

I came across these tips and I want to share Praise George's Insights with you. There are certain types of women, you shouldn't be involved with if you want a very successful marriage.

1. The IRRESPONSIBLE Woman: She does little or nothing for herself, depends on others to handle most of her responsibilities like paying her bills, debts, or buying her things. When you get married to her, she'll expect you to carry out all responsibilities while she does nothing to contribute to the success of the relationship. This woman is only a liability

2. A LIAR : She is very eloquent, intelligent and sometimes charming. You may never realise that such a woman could be telling you lies because you will never be able to reconcile the outward facade she puts on with who she really is. She conceives and concocts tales that never happened just to impress you.
If you catch her telling lies, she'll defend herself with another lie. Never permit a chronic, recalcitrant liar to be a lover or friend because she will ruin you life.

3.A WASTER : She lives above her means. She is addicted to buying whatever looks good whether she has money or not, she buys almost everything on credit, always paying debt and has no savings.
Her idea of success is how large her wardrobe is, because of her habits, she goes out with any man who can pay her debts. She may confess she loves you but the bottom line is how much you can put on the table to cater for her addiction .You cannot change her, so let go of her.

4. A LAZY WOMAN : This woman is not physically challenged in any way but is totally laid back. She hates to lift her hands to do house hold chores, she'll rather hire anyone to take care of her business. This woman detests any sort of hard work. She would procrastinate important projects.
She definitely needs you to slave for her. I bet you she's not the woman for you at all.

5. A PLAY GIRL : She is the Centre of attraction wherever she is. She plays only with the 'big boys'. Her taste is classy and expensive. She dates several men at a time and takes none of them seriously. She hangs out with only rich men who can regularly give her large sums of money and jumps in and out of bed with them. Her philosophy of life is very twisted, she believes in enjoying herself as much as possible without limits or restraints. This woman won't suit you in marriage if you want to actually settle down.

SADDEST TRUE LIFE STORY

She Died While Giving Life :

   "The saddest day of my life was the day I lost my Aisha" Haruna told me sorrowfully  "I once heard that time heals everything but in my case, it makes everything worse".

    I met Haruna at the airport, while on a trip to Los Angeles, US. We were on the same plane and he was my sit mate too. 
Being an outgoing person and a freelance writer I soon engaged him in a talk and thanks to a few communication skills I learnt in Larry Kings "How to Talk to Anyone, Anywhere... " He was able to confide and tell me about his most awful experience.

Haruna Speaks :
   I am a computer science graduate and to survive I run a cyber cafe in my town, with the little money I earned I was able to cater for my essential needs.
Soon I found Love with a young Malian girl (girl from Mali). She was really beautiful and dainty,  but what attracted me to her was her character ; she talked, walked with courtesy. Funny and gregarious, she added spice and variety to my life. Aisha was always optimistic about Life and though she was really younger, I took every counsel she gave. Allah had bestowed her with wisdom.

    6 Months later
    It was a rainy evening, I had just returned home from work, eager to meet my wife. As usual she bounced to the sitting room as I walked in and announced that she was pregnant. Too soon for me to believe because after her last miscarriage(it was an ectopic pregnancy though), the doctor had said that she had less chance of being pregnant and if she did, she may not survive it).
Well, I was so happy to hear that but that meant regular visits to the doctor in case of any complications .
I loved Aisha so much and I wanted her only to carry my baby, I wanted to be a father to her baby, my baby. I was ready to go through it with her, all the way.
Our love grew stronger that a few times leaving for work or a trip meant Aisha shedding a few tears. Life went on, good enough, her pregnancy developed fine and there wasn't any complications, so we got ready for our baby's arrival bit by bit.

9 Months later
     The weather was cold, I had returned home late from work too and after sipping a cup of hot tea with Aisha, I got in bed really tired from the day's work. Aisha later tidied the house and joined me in bed.
At exactly 9:16pm, Aisha woke me up. She said she thought her water just broke and she was beginning to feel pains too. I was really feeling sleepy and fatigued so I told her to time her contractions (at least that was what the doctor told us; "time the contractions before running off to the hospital, in that case you can tell of its getting closer" ).
    She just got out of bed and I dozed off;
If someone had told me that this was the last night I was going to spend with my darling, I would have fought with that person, but with each passing hour, her departure from this life, from my life was getting closer. I wished I could do things a lot more different. I wished Life had being fair enough to Us. My baby, Aisha and me.
[ Haruna paused, his eyes were turning blood red, he gulped down the wine in his glass and looked out of the round window]

    Aisha's screaming jolted me back to reality. And I flew out of bed; I later found her in the bathroom. I guess she was taking her "last" bath before being a mom but she got a contraction there as she was about to step out of the bath tub. I washed my face and legs quickly and then helped her put on a comfortable gown, she asked for her pearl earrings and her lip gloss  "what!? I thought we're heading for the hospital?"  I asked a bit surprised . She managed to smile  " I want to feel beautiful today my baby's born ".  Well it was weird but I let her put them on anyway . The hospital bag was ready so I just grabbed it and off we went , on our way to the hospital.

    By the time we got there, it was 10:23pm. Aisha had a hard time being calm. I had to hold her up all the time she felt like collapsing to the floor in pains.
Unfortunately, the nurses told us that they had no room available for her yet. The labour room was in use already. It was saddening, Knowing fully well about Aisha's condition, I knew it was a risk to do otherwise like take her home and call and elderly lady to take her birth or something .

    There was a private hospital not too far from this one but I had the fear if Aisha could manage being transferred again and worse still, it was raining.
Anyways, I called a cab and managed to get her in, she looked pitiable by now. She just groaned in pains and breathed heavily like she wanted to die. I was extremely sorry for her.
We got there and quickly the nurses wheeled her in, asked a few questions and told us to wait briefly for the doctor to come.
"wait!? " I yelled. 
"yes, we follow protocols here ". One short black nurse answered
"damn protocols, she's dying in pains can't you hear her? " I yelled still and they didn't answer me.
I went into the room where they kept her; No one had checked her or something, they just left her to die slowly [he bit his lips]. I held her hands and they felt frail, she was obviously getting tired but each time she moved or groaned, I felt her pains.
"my legs, the baby" she managed to say. It took only a few seconds for me to understand her, I ran out in fury
"Nurse! Nurse! She needs help." I was shouting... Just then a Middle aged man came in
"Are you the doctor, please hurry, my wife is dying " I pleaded.

   He quickly dropped his brief case and put on a lab coat and gloves, then he followed me promptly, ordering the nurses around as usual.
I could tell Aisha was too tired already, she had no strength to even push out my baby.
So they quickly  set up an IVF drip for her.
Aisha was gasping and groaning, I could feel her pains. The Doctor  opted for a Cesarean Section to be done but I had no money enough to even deposit the half sum of 80,000. So they battled on until they brought out the baby, she was dead already but the nurses didn't let me know. They just made me believe that they need to take our baby to a nearby baby center for intensive care. 

    I refused to leave Aisha's side all the while,
soon they brought an oxygen tank and fixed it for her while trying to control the bleeding, she was bleeding endlessly for over two hours and she was still visibly in pains. This was already the evening of the second day since we left home. I was exhausted.  [He paused to dry his tears.]

Did Aisha Survive it?
(I asked after a few minutes of sympathising with him )
On Friday, with the call to Muslims for Prayers at 4:00pm Aisha died but she was already dead before then.
How do you mean?
The doctor later came to check on her, only to discover she was brain dead, he told me to sign , so he could remove the oxygen mask from her face but I refused,  I wanted to give Aisha a chance to survive, a chance to live even when I knew her chances were none. 
Well finally she chose not to fight anymore, she chose to let go of me,  she went where the pain can't reach her.
Post mortem said she died of a ruptured womb. I was devastated

 Haruna talks about Life after:   
     Life is totally unfair, I  was poor that's why I got treated like that. I had no one to turn to...
I had my baby and wife buried in same cemetery and on the same day.
   Going back home was awful, but the nurses insisted that I can't sleep in the hospital , I finally got home and when I walked in , Her clothes, Her foot wares, her body care kits, even her night gown reminded me so much of her, I broke down and wailed. Bad people get married and have kids, why does this have to happen to Aisha and me ?
    My birthday was coming up in two weeks and there was no Aisha to make me feel special, I left her things as she had left them before we left.

When did this happen?
Six months ago, and I am still trying to recover. Doctors say that I am suffering from Post traumatic stress.
I wanted to sue the hospital for everything but... I didn't anymore... Suing them won't take away the grief or pain. It wouldn't help me heal.
They say Time heals almost everything but for me it's bringing up old memories. I just can't forget all the pains I saw her go through.
I just can't forget how incapable I was, I couldn't help her more.

So what do you do to relieve stress now?
Apart from the fact that I am on drugs, I visit her grave every Friday, I talk to her about how life after her departure has being [he sobs] but you know, Aisha doesn't answer me. Right now I'm travelling back home to see how I can start life afresh.

HOW TO UTILIZE THE INTERNET(1)

COMPILATION OF MR OKOLO EMMANUEL SEMINAR PRESENTATION IN GFL WHATSAPP GROUP.

Topic : How best we can utilize the internet for a more comfortable and better life*

Here is a poem about the internet
*oh!internet*
*friend or foe*
*make or mare*
*two sides of a coin*
*double edged sword *
*that's you*
*relativistic!*
*(Emmanuel, 2016)*

      Yesterday a single mum smashed the computer she bought for her son all because he was surfing porn sites.
In as much as the internet has it's shortcomings which I still argue to be relativistic, it's good sides can't be over emphasised. For the purpose of this seminar/discussion tonight,  I will be centering on how we can use the internet to better our lives

    To make this more practical we will be looking at the life of  Mr. A and how we can use the internet in making his life less stressful and better;

Mr. As a young entrepreneur who is into dry cleaning services. He left his former organisation cause he wanted to be his own boss. Starting his dry cleaning business wasn't easy at first, but with support from family, few friends and wife coupled with his zeal to succeed, he found him self on the right track.
However Mr A has some few problems:

*He wants more people to patronise his services*

*His target for increased patronage are the creme de la creme*

*He needs to get some new machines and he he scared of buying from the wrong people*

*His new market would need to book for his services before time*

*His wife complains that he never remembers her birthday*

*He hates carrying huge amount of money with him, and also hates going to the bank*

Now if these Mr A's problems can be solved he would live a better life, happier life and comfortable life. Solving these problems rests in the hands of *Mr Internet*
Now *Mr Internet tells Mr A how he can solve his problems:
* Create a website: By doing this he can advertise his service online via the internet, thus increasing his market.

Use the social media: The social media as we all know is the driving force of many businesses now. If Mr A can advertise using social media, the sky is his starting point

Create an email: Mr A's new target market won't have the time to always call they would rather send you a mail which is easier and more professional.

Shop Online: Mr A dosn't need to travel round Nigeria to get his new machine, moreover he dosn't know where to look since the last time he bought them. Also he could read reviews of people about the product online before leaping....like the saying goes "look before you leap" the internet can help him look by allowing him to shop online.

Online banking: Since Mr A dosn't like going to the bank or carrying money with him, the internet allows him do all his transaction online.

send birthday cards online: Mr A would always forget his to buy his wife birthday card on her birthday. Mr internet said why not send it to her via me. Does she have an email? and Mr A said yes.

After consulting with Mr Internet

Mr A was so happy, he felt a huge load was just taken off his back, he could breath a sigh of relieve.
Before walking out of Mr Internet's office he saw Mr B , Mr C  and Mrs D who came to appreciate Mr Internet for making their lives better. Then he asked Mr B and Mr C how Mr internet did that  and they said;
*Mr B*...... I was having issues getting a job,  but thank God today am employed thanks to Mr Internet

*Mr C*..... I am a pastor and wanted to increase the number of soul for God, and God told me to consult Mr internet to increase my horizon. God told me to tap into the power of the internet.  Today everywhere in the world my messages is been streamed live online.

*Mrs D*.... I wanted my voice to be heard. I am a writer,  I wanted to impact humanity with my words. Mr Internet helped me with that, today am a blogger.

Mr A said..."indeed you are a life changer Mr internet, you have made our lives better"

Thank you for reading!

HOW I RUINED MY LIFE - BIGGEST ERROR.

    I took the pains to write in my Diary The Biggest Error I Have Ever Made; and that's why you shouldn't be in a hurry to get married early. Don't get me wrong, marrying early is cool but marrying earlier than you are ready is like waking up love at the wrong time.

I'm going to be writing in a different style than you are used to. I would be very exact, giving you an explicit summary of My ordeal.

MONTH 1: I attended Claire's pool party and I met this gorgeous but simple guy, we fell in love just like that. He told me his name was Kirk Jordan and we exchanged contacts. Didn't give him my home address because I didn't want him to meet my parents, I would tell you why soon.

MONTH 2: We seemed to have known each other for years, Kirk actually loved me. I even got to know that he was a college graduate, had a cool job, at least that was what he told me. He seemed to be my Prince Charming, very gentle and luring. I confided in him and soon told him how my home was a mess. He said it would be better I came to live in with him, he wanted me to get away from such environment so it doesn't affect me.

MONTH 3: Kirk took me out often and we were getting really emotionally close. I bought his idea to elope with him but I told him, we could just wait till I finally got out of high school (I was in my last year and in a few months, I was getting out of high school). He said whatever decisions I made was fine by him.

MONTH 4: One night, something strange happened, My dipsomaniac dad came home totally drunk, mom wasn't home yet like every other night(sometimes she didn't even come home). My elder step-sister was married and so I was all by myself often. I was actually fatigued and so I just lay in bed half asleep.
It was a strange feeling, I thought it was a dream, really awkward dream. I just felt this unusual sensation down there. I wanted to open my eyes but it felt as though my eyes became disobedient,
I was scared too... But when I opened my eyes finally, I was mortified by what I saw - Dad had his hands in my pants...
He tried to push me back in bed, though he was stronger, I got away somehow but I got my clothes torn badly from struggling to avoid being raped by my own father.

MONTH 5: Kirk let me live with him after what happened last month, I was devastated and ashamed of my Dad. I dropped a note for my mom before leaving, hoping that no one came to search for me either. After all, they never cared about me, so I hoped my decision didn't affect anyone.
Graduation from high school was on point and Kirk was all I had, he was the only one that attended my graduation not even my dad or mom came by. I felt depressed but Kirk was amazing, he made me feel on top of my world. He told me how proud he was of me.

MONTH 6: I finally wanted to meet Kirk's parents, he never spoke about his parents, did he fall from the sky, didn't he have a beginning? He never spoke about his childhood memories or about his parents. He just made me believe he was a college graduate, anytime I tried to ask, he got dumb and gave me cold stares.
One night, I insisted on meeting his family or seeing a picture of them, after all I wasn't a foolish high school leaver. He yelled at me and made biting comments that really hurt me... Since then I learnt to respect his boundaries if I wanted to continue enjoying the love, warmth and shelter he provided.

MONTH 7: It happened!  We had sex, Kirk was great on bed and gentle too. It wasn't so awkward though it was my first time. He was most surprised that I was a virgin all through high school.
Well, not that the boys didn't come for it or I was a fanatic, I had more fears ; fears that if I got pregnant along the line, It would be a disaster (I was already struggling to keep sane at home let alone if I had a baby too) and besides, being a mother at such a young age was terrifying. I had a gorgeous body and I thought getting pregnant meant losing that.

MONTH 8: Kirk had to solemnize our union, I believed that was the right thing to do too. I wanted to be tied down to his life... I had nothing going on for me other than Kirk's Love. I wanted to go further in my education but Kirk suggested after we had a baby together just so I wouldn't run away for another guy, weird how he thought but I concurred . So he invited friends and just friends, (I also had a few girlfriends stop by too) and the oldest guy present informally declared us partners.
My girlfriends squealed in excitement telling me how lucky I was.
(Years later I think about it and I just realized they were the dumbest people ever).

MONTH 9: Morning nauseating, faintness, weakness, all showed up. I knew that I was pregnant at least that's what we were thought in biology back then - symptoms of pregnancy. Kirk seemed happy though but that was just the beginning of a huge change in our relationship. And as weeks rolled by, every day had a surprise from Kirk for me. He was often too engrossed in himself, overly sensitive and less caring... I couldn't decipher what went wrong. I had even seen him lately snuffing substance and I nearly lost myself.
Kirk's movements became unpredictable and disturbing. Sometimes we went to bed together and in the middle of the night, he was nowhere to be found, to allay my fears he would always drop a note "Don't call the police, I am safe!"

MONTH 10: Kirk would not even let me work in a nearby coffee shop, he said I was carrying his baby and needed a lot of rest, so I stayed home full time, just eating what he brings home and living like a prisoned house lover.
I soon got too fed up of being fed with Kirk's bullshit. (He no longer even cared about my well being, all that mattered was that he provided my needs and I should be content with that).
Lest I forget, I soon became his sex toy, he would just climb and ride and get off - he was so selfish in that aspect too. We often argued and yelled at each other, a few times Kirk hit me and I would try to hit back .

MONTH 11: I finally confided in a girlfriend of mine and told her about my plight. She advised me to take the bull by the horn and show Kirk that I was worth respecting; She even advised me to dig it out with him " no man treats his woman like trash! "
She even told me how her mom fought for her marriage like that and now her dad doesn't mess up.
I got home feeling charged and ready to beat Kirk up. I opened the refrigerator and took out one alcoholic beverage,  I got drunk and passed out. (woke up sick the next day).

MONTH 12: This fateful day, I can never forget. The 12th day of the month in the year 1997.
Kirk had come home late this night and I just sat in the sitting room watching my best movie, Kirk just said hi and I murmured an answer. He dropped his bag and went straight to the kitchen, he must have been seriously hungry and I intentionally didn't make any food for him as usual (wanted to show him that I was his partner and not just a slave).
Then he came into the sitting room and turned off the Television set. " what do you think you are doing? " he yelled.
And that was it, I replied every word he blurted out and cursed him big time, reminding him that I was no servant here and besides I was pregnant.
Then he shocked me when he said " You are as useless as human dung, you are just an overgrown baby who had to get away from home and since you came into my life, I haven't had peace of mind. I wish you never existed. After all no one cares if you die or live " . That was the last straw that broke the Camel's back, instead of breaking down in body quaking sobs, I ran into the kitchen to get a frying pan, I  don't know what I was thinking (Kirk was quite taller than I am).
I tried to fight like a wounded lion but the beast in me couldn't stand the beast in him and soon I could hear someone screaming like crazy... I guess that was me.

Woke up in a hospital, don't know how I got there or what happened to me when I got there. When I opened my eyes, I  could feel a sharp pain all over my body.
I later got to know that the police found me almost dead by the road and that I was seriously bleeding and injured...

To cut the long story short, my life has never remained the same, I lost the baby. Kirk is history, I have never been able to know where he lives... My family is also history though I am planning to go search for them.
One thing led to another, I moved far away from my state... To survive, I work as a stripper in a club. It's not being easy and till tomorrow I still regret every decision I made 14 years ago, I'm 30 now. And though I don't love what I do but the decision I made years back have built me this way, I just flow with the tide.

Thanks for having the time to read my story .

WHY YOU SHOULDN'T BE IN A HURRY TO GET MARRIED.

Here are a few reasons why you should think twice when it comes to getting married earlier. No need to prevaricate, I would just go straight to the point.

1. It's a Life time Contract : When you say "marriage", you say "commitment". The great old book for Christians explains that a man should leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife and they must become one flesh. Note it said "a man " not a young boy, meaning we are referring to mature minds because commitment in itself demands Maturity. And the commitment in marriage is to be for as long as life goes on. No expiry date.
While wedding is a once in a lifetime event, marriage is a life time experience - observe the difference.

2. Wrong priorities : You have to set your priorities right. It is foolish to think you want a perfect guy/lady for a husband / wife because PERFECT SPOUSES only exist in the grave, so if you're marrying just for what you can see outwardly(looks),  your priorities need re-assessments.


Secondly, It's one thing to have a phenomenal wedding and another thing to have a successful marriage because most often I see a lot of people prepare meticulously for their wedding than they do for a successful marriage.
Some others get married because friends are getting married too, while others get married just to fulfil extreme sexual desires - all are wrong reasons to be married.

3. Restrictions abound : Marriage can provide a great deal of stability in a relationship, the emotional closeness and all. It offers many delights but has it's own share of restrictions, there are lots of things you wouldn't do while you have a partner. You can think of them right?
Also, there are certain disadvantages when you get married too soon. 

4. There are responsibilities to shoulder : The idea of absolute commitment frightens many, but if you really love who you love, commitment won't be a burden to you after all True Love bears all things, endures all things. 


Before negotiating marriage, you should have a decent job that can take care of your essential needs including your wife's needs too. Little wonder some women won't want to marry a pauper, that's because no one would be responsible enough to walk down the aisle with  a lazy man who can't fend for himself let alone his new family.

   Young people change as they grow, their values, principles and way of life ; statistics reveal that those who marry too early are much likely to be depressed quickly and seek divorce. Do not rush into a marriage or soon you will have yourself rushing out too.
A few years spent living as a young, single youth can give you precious experience that will make you more mature and better qualified to be a suitable mate.

DRIVING BASICS 001 FOR NOVICES

SECTION 2 :  I believe you've read the first section and you know what's cooking already.
 
Let's survey the gear lever; you'll notice that on it are numbers, these numbers indicate your gear level, how fast you want to drive. Most cars have just five(5) gear levels and Reverse.

   Now the main deal :
Get in the car, seat comfortably on the driver's seat, get a feel of the gear stick/lever , rest your left foot on the clutch and your right foot on the accelerator

Always make sure your gear stick is in neutral before you start the ignition ; Reason is : If you put on the car without checking if the gear is in neutral, there's an 86% probability that it would move forward in a quick bump and that's not funny in reality.

While its in neutral, press hard on the clutch using your left foot and use your right foot to press the brake down while you turn on the ignition (I call this A-Safety-Start ). Reason is: It would keep you in control of the car in case it may want to move.

Pull the gear to gear one while still in the previous process, carefully release your leg from the brake and let it rest on the accelerator, now get the car crawling(moving gradually) by releasing your foot halfway on the clutch while pressing slightly with your right foot on the accelerator. Now the car is in motion

To move faster, put (a +1 or) more push on the accelerator , remember it's still going to move within the limits of gear level 1 .
Keep on like this while moving your steering wheel as you practice how to control or navigate the car.

To bring the car to a halt :
    Clutch down fully first,
     Using your right leg, push the brake down - The car stops.
Note: clutch down before you brake to avoid stalling the engine or throwing your self forward (forward sudden pull)
For the first few weeks, it's adviceable to ride using gear one.

If this was helpful, please leave your comments or contributions, We hope to Improve on this if need be to serve you better

IT'S ALL ABOUT LOVE.

   It was a darkly lit night, the moon was asleep already, only the stars where sprinkled above. She was taking refuge from the unfriendly weather.
Quietly she sat in a corner of the small dank room close to the only small round hole in the wall, she looked through it and could only see some flickers of light in the valley below.

Fear got hold of her, she couldn't risk it again facing the world and its harsh realities, she stayed in, wishing and waiting for all to feel good.

    Regret kept her company sooner than later, it reminded her of her past with detailed images, deeply engrossed in self pity and hopelessness tears began to well in her eyes, she wished she hadn't done all she did, she wished she hadn't made those errors...
    
    She was unclad, bare and vulnerable, extremely beautiful but somewhat flawed ; Her Creator had carved her in perfection, she was a delectable epitome of a charm and femininity but she couldn't cope with her imperfections; Life hadn't being gentle and kind, so much she had to bear.

    In bitterness, she felt gross maltreatment , life truly hadn't been fair enough to her. Her eyes flooded with tears too long that she couldn't realise that someone was approaching, soft footsteps like a tiptoe...
Scared, she thought she had to run out of the other door into the balcony and out.

   Too late, He caught her just as fast as lightning before she could leave the room.
Not looking at the stranger's face, she fought for her freedom, she struggled and cried a river let go of me! She yelled but He held on to her firmly... She must have thought He would ravish her.

   Let go of me, I gave you a chance before and all I got was a mess of myself
Looking out, she could see the lights down the valley flickering, It seemed as though they beckoned on her, she badly needed to get away from this stranger. She kept fighting and hitting.

   He handled her with care, holding her firmly but gently, He knew she didn't know who He was, He knew she probably was traumatized, He sure knew she was bare and ashamed but He still held her in spite of herself.
  
  I won't hurt you and you never gave me a chance before, No! Not me.
She stopped for a second, the voice was serene, calm and as balm to her pains. His voice did the magic, it seduced her to stop fighting. She shut her eyes tightly as he turned her to himself, she was scared of the unknown.

   He brought her head to rest on his muscular chest, she just let him do it,  He wanted her to listen to His heartbeats... She sniffed quietly and hush!  His heartbeats spoke words to her, sweet immortal words that only two surreal hearts can comprehend.

    He took her face in his hands and stared intently into her brownish ash pupils, that sparkling hypnotic eyes of her, making her realise that Regret had starved to death when she no longer gave it attention and her past was over. Her present mattered most.
  
    Her full round lips danced to a smile as she inhaled His breathe, twas fresh and refreshing . Her heart sang as He pulled her into a warm embrace, she was lost in Him as she savoured this moment. Pulling off His winter coat He wrapped her with it.
  
    Then she realised that it was LOVE, love had caught her despite her self and He was here certainly to make her better and safer. He  lifted her off the wet floor and took her away to where she belonged, He knew she deserved to be a Princess because she was Strong in her weakness, and Beautiful but flawed
Her tender, wounded heart bursted with great joy.

DRIVING BASICS 001 FOR NOVICES.

   Nothing is really hard if you set your mind in it to learn, setting a car in motion is a skill as germane as learning how to do any other important things.
Now as I take you on an explicit theoretical ride, I want you to give your mind a free lift, and after learning the basics, you and I would know for sure that you can do it.

    I learnt how to drive a car before I clocked 18 and I can tell you that the first time you move that car, you would feel this excitement in you, you feel big, you feel like if I can drive a car, I can do anything good.

   Here,  are a few things worth considering before you begin your journey in the school of driving :
1. THE CAR : Your car must be sound, you sure won't enjoy learning if it has a fault,  so don't try learning with a grounded car, or an old rickety car.  I also advice you learn with a car having manual gear stick/lever.

2. THE ENVIRONMENT : It is very essential that you go to an open field or an open free-of-traffic road before you try anything out, Reason is: you probably don't know how to really control that car and you wouldn't want to run into anything yet by mistake, you wouldn't want to bash your car against a pole or wall.

3. YOUR CONFIDENCE : Let go of fear or anxiety and relax, if people can drive then you can! All it may take is Time and Practice
   That's why I have written this as explicitly as I can, just so you can do it right.

   I believe you are now ready to practice ;
PART ONE ; SURVEY :
 
First, get in the car, take a look at the foot area of the driver's seat, If it's a manual car, you will find out that it has three(3)pedals of nearly discrepant sizes.

To identify what each pedal is, do this; 
From Right: A B C to Left 
A : Accelerator 
B : Brake
C : Clutch
