Relationship Booster: Meet a Need

As simple and insignificant a waiter's or a cleaner's job may appear in the work place, the need for them can not be ignored. It is because they serve a need and a purpose that makes them "a can't do without". There was a time I had an 8am class to lecture, the class was on hold for the cleaner to do her job, which took almost 30 mins of my lecture time, yet I can't help not to.



In order to be recognised, respected and relevant in our relationships and marriage, our presence must be serving a need and purpose. No one should occupy space for nothing. No one want to lose any part of their body, either seen or unseen, little or big. The reason is because every part of the body has a function they serve, even to the toes and fingers. Also, you would be respected and cherished when you serve a function or a purpose in the other person's lives.


Has anyone ever being in a situation that you wish you had a longer nails? Because it has its importance and when the need beckons, you won't mind to pay to grow one or beg another who has nails to help you sort it. As a woman, don't be totally dependent on your man and vice versa. Even children serves a purpose in their parent's lives, so why shouldn't a grown up do.


In the past, I had under played the role of children in the house, until when my 2+ old daughter surprised me to do what I couldn't do at the time and what an adult couldn't do easily. Then, I learnt that we need them as much as they need us. The reason why some are not being preferred or celebrated in their diverse relationships is because they are not lubricating their union with their usefulness.


If you can give money, you can give what money can buy or do. If you can't give time, you should be able to give values. If you can give your service in exchange for relevance. If you can't give this, you should be able to give that, but not to be able to give this and that would down play your importance. Little things can play big when it comes to relationships, so begin and continue to give your bits.

Relationship Boosters: Mentality of Give and Take

"Give me, Give me Attitude" shortens the life span of any relationship, because life is a give and take, while death is a take and take. Any relationship without an exchange (give and take) will soon be dead. When anyone takes too much from a relationship than they give, life is being taken away from it gradually.  He who only knows how to take and not to give, becomes a parasite and might never be "A can't do without person". We should give, not because the other person lacks, but because we need to make deposits in order to withdraw for account not to show danger. I had lost friends in the past because of this deficiency, not because I wanted anything back, but because we all need to bring something to the table (time, effort or money) even if it’s not equivalent. Just like the image above is a moment of reunion, where we shared value. God GIVES us life and we GIVE him the glory. Our parent GIVE birth to us and we GIVE them honor. A man GIVES the ...

Friendship is Magical. It is the life of every coming together of two or more. Friendship building in any kind of relationship gives it a special spark and lift.  When couples are friends, they are in for a great lift. When a boss and an employee are friends, workplace becomes a home. When parent and children are friends, their relationship becomes cordial. When siblings are friends, they become so inseparable. When friends become friend, you have just got a soul knit friend. When stranger becomes friends, they become a family. Even organization are beginning to build friendship to keep the relationship cordial, they call it "customer care". They are aware, it’s the cheapest way to build repetitive purchase and loyal customer. The above picture is a lecturer - Student friendship built during my undergraduate days, which was an awesome and unforgettable experience. Anywhere you find friendship, please treasure it and where there isn't, start and nurture it, it...

Relationship Booster: Make a Strong Point with Love

One thing to do in order to oil and m oisturise our relationship is to always find a perfect moment to make a strong point. When your partner is weak of any sort (physical, financial, mental), you can show up your strength for him/her at such time, because it's such moment that he places his highest value on strength and that is not the time to deny him such.  When your partner offends you in an unimaginable way, such is the perfect time for you to find it in you to forgive. At such times, she think she is underserving of your forgiveness and if you truly can brace up and bring yourself up to it, you have made the strongest of point. Meaning he might never be able to recover from that kindness, by holding you far too dear.  True love is only known when it's the hardest to show, and known in the most difficult moments and not the rosy times we all think we love. The test of love can only be passed when you find it the hardest to love, yet you love anyways. it's when it cost ...
