How ‘Madam Most Liked’ lost her likeness’...

‘Madam Most Liked’ had some flair around her that made people get stuck to her. She was liked, adored and always ‘worshipped’ because of her likeness.

People will go heaven and earth just to get her attention. Many described her as the mother of many because many desired her attention. Many loved to be around her. Many broke all protocol just to get her attention.

It appeared that she was born or probably grew up developing a unique ability. An ability that warm and stole the hearts of many. An ability that could put your heart at ease. An ability that could assemble various hearts all over and put at the same place and time.

An ability that could make you do things for her which otherwise you would not have done. An ability that could make you spend even your last penny just to make her comfortable and happy. An ability that could make you put her interest first and even above yours. An ability that could deceive you and even though you know you are being deceived you still smile and act fine.

A wonderful ability…lol

It’s true the thing they say that when the ‘gods want to destroy you, they first make you mad’. They make you lose your sense of reasoning and ability to decipher between right and wrong. Thereby, you become an accomplice in your own destruction. You may eventually plan and orchestrate your own destruction without even knowing you are doing that because you’ve been made mad! And that’s how her destruction began.

‘Madam Most Liked’ lost track of her abilities or probably was overwhelmed by her own abilities and started planning and orchestrating her own destruction. She started taking people for granted and abusing the massive and genuine love shown her.

Flip-flop…flip-flop…she kept walking over the love and sacrifices people gave her.
Flip-flop…flip-flop…she rubbished the efforts people made for her.
Flip-flop…flip-flop…she held her shoulders high and said she had a supernatural and extraordinary ability to get whatever she wants and needs from these same people she disrespected. These people cannot do without me and they will keep coming to me regardless of how I treat them...she said.

One by one, these people left. They left with disappointed hearts and vowed never to be used and abused and again.

All these while, ‘Madam Most Liked’ kept flipping and flopping the love people gave her.

Years down the lane, ‘Madam Most Liked’ woke up one morning to find lots of people still around her. Yes, people were still there but the genuine and massive love, sacrifices and efforts were all gone.

There were people around her; in fact many people around her but none liked her. None was ready to sacrifice anything for her. None was willing to be allowed to be flipped flopped.


…And that’s how ‘Madam Most Liked’ lost her ‘likeness’.
Literature and Christ lover!

People of Many shades

Image
One of the most difficult people to live with are those whom you cannot tell who they really are or what they really want. Double standard people. People of many shades. You cannot tell their real intentions or what they really feel about you. I believe it will be much easier to live or co-exist with someone if you knew who they are or what their intentions are. That way, you are well able to move around them freely and easily. People of many shades or double standard people are difficult to please. The difficulty in pleasing those lies in the fact that you cannot tell who or what they are; in order to make provision for that ‘who’ or ‘what’. You can only try to do something and hope that it meets their expectation. Most often than not, expectations are never met. And if you are the kind that worries a lot when someone is not happy or pleased with you, you end up in a state of constant worry. This could leave you depressed. People of many shades or double standard people are ...

Purple Birthday

Image
My excitement kept growing that at a point i thought i will explode out of excitement as my birthday approached. Deep within i felt some joy that i don't remember ever feeling when  my birthday was approaching. As to why or what i was excited about, i cant tell. All i knew was that, my birthday was gonna be special. I woke up in the morning, determined not to remind my family about my birthday cuz i always did. I picked up my phone and switched my mobile data on as i usually put it off before sleeping (thanks to the Yellow mobile network that 'steals' your credits even when the phone hasn't been touched for hours...lol) and read a message from my lil sis who was sleeping ryt next to me, wishing me a happy birthday. I smiled at her and replied, thanking her for starting my day ryt. I picked a dress out of my wardrobe and leaped to go and iron it so that the lights do not betray me. I then made ready for my friend's wedding at 11 am. I was excited about the wedd...

Fun at the lorry station

Image
A magnitude of fun burst out among numerous young boys and girls all over. Some chasing each other and others teasing and pulling the clothes of the other. These young boys are probably driver’s mates. The ones who have a touch of romance are seen trying to talk to the young girls who are selling one thing or the other in a pan on their hands. Some try to position the items in the pan properly for the young girls; all to score some romantic points...lol One thing you cannot fathom is what these young boys and girls are happy about. It’s an early morning at the lorry station with a lot of activities all over. Everybody is engaged in one thing or the other; calling out the names of the towns/ cities the vehicles are going to, pulling the clothes and hands of prospective passengers to climb on a particular vehicle, selling items your mind could imagine; from pepper to phones, preaching the word of God, selling songs on pen drives, etc. Despite all of these, the young boys and girl...
