It's Friday

I must tell you that I don't feel like writing now but I must write, I sincerely wish that you have a palatable read of this potpourri

Friday means different different things to different people, to some it's time to unwind after a very busy week, to others it's the time when business really booms, whatever it means to you or whatever you do, there should be one thing paramount in every heart, show love!

Enjoy below a combination of different people's thoughts on love be it Agape, eros and fileo.

Winter Moonlight

The snow, so peaceful and serene,
caressed by the soft moonlight,
gave magical feelings to the night.

The soft blue glow,
the lovers' words that then did flow,
their lips closer and closer
until, locked in the throes
of a passionate embrace,
he decided to express his feelings,
to keep her safe.

He whispered softly,
his words like music to her ears,
"I Love You,"
and her response the same,
heard like the gentle breeze,
"And I, love you, forever."

That was the night they promised
to be together through everything,
each to care for the other when old and gray
A lovers' pact
the most likely to last.

You know you are in love
when you see the world in her eyes,
and her eyes everywhere in the world.

- David Levesque

Love is strong yet delicate.
It can be broken.
To truly love is to understand this.
To be in love is to respect this.

- Stephen Packer -



What Is It That I Love?

If asked why I love her I would say
It’s the sway in her hips,
the thickness in her thighs.
It’s the lust in her lips,
the love in her eyes.
It’s the softness of her skin,
the silk in her hair.
It’s the twist in her walk;
it’s the sweetness in her talk.
It’s the way she loves me
that makes me love her each day.
That is what I would say.

The Magic Of Love

Love is like magic
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!
Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!
Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.
Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind!!
Love is the answer
That everyone seeks...
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.
Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!!

What is your greatest fear?

I will finish up with the concluding part of Rejoice! later on but since it's Friday, I would like to shout my 'TGIF' by sharing a thought with you.
The words I will be sharing with you were words I read several years ago but didn't make any sense to me. I would later come across this words again when I was employed by Generis, where at a time it was mandatory for all to know it by heart. I also came across these powerful words again while watching a film by Samuel L. Jackson.
The words have wrongly attributed to Nelson Mandela as his 1994 Inaugural speech, the greatest impact the words however had on me was when I heard it again in Samuel L Jackson's Coach Carter.
I believe it will do you a lot of good as you go about enjoying the weekend.

Our Greatest Fear

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light , not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of god. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make and manifest the glory of god that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

-Marianne Williamson
“Our Greatest Fear” from her book “A Return To Love”

Gratitude Matters

Thank God it's Friday! As we go to enjoy the weekend, I have my good buddy (Ugonna) by my side; he came in today all the way from the Garden city, I just thought about gratitude and felt like blogging about it.
I know that you are not yet what you are supposed to be, but, have you also noted that you are not what you used to be? There will be many reasons for you to count as small, the various tender mercies of God but dont be deceived. Gratitude prepares you to receive more, it's an acknowledgement that you are actually being helped by the big Boss upstairs.
As you go about this weekend, I encourage you to think about how you have been saved from a disaster, healed of a disease and more. This morning while going to work, I would have had an accident, but He kept me, He deserves the praise.
What do you think?

Rules of the garage

Just before you say Thank God It's Friday!, take a look at this, Biola just forwarded a mail to me now, I found the content a good source of inspiration for Team building and effectiveness. I would advice that you just digest the little doses, sleep with the words over the weekend and go to work on monday with a renewed sense of a team player. Have a blessed and fun filled weekend.

Believe you can

change the world

Work quickly

keep the tools unlocked

work whenever.

Know when to work alone

and when to work together

Share tools,

share ideas,

trust your colleagues

No politics,

no bureaucracy,

these are ridiculous

in the garage

The customer

defines a job well done,

radical ideas

are not bad ideas

Invent different ways of working

make a contribution everyday

If it does not contribute,

it does not leave the garage

Believe that together

we can do anything

Invent
