DEAR DISTINGUISHED--Abide To Abound♥




Dear Distinguished,
   Did you miss me? I'll take you out for dinner after...

 Scrap that! Scrap it!! I'm taking no one out for dinner please. How did that line get here? Thinking about it, it's actually a line from one song in the movie "Let it Shine". I'm no movie freak so don't ask me who produced, directed or acted in it- thank you.

   You wonder how I manage to remember it? I used to meditate on the songs. I literally had the lyrics of all the songs crammed up in my small head (and it's really small). Imagine that I had used that space to cram dy/dx. I wouldn't be any better I'm sure.

   However, if I had heeded the call to abide in the vine, we'd probably not be having this conversation. At most, we'd be looking at another angle. This angle would have included fruits. If only I had recalled he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruits;  cause without me, ye can do nothing.

   Alas you have a clean slate! So do I because the life I now live, I live in Christ Jesus. I have received a charge, I'm sending it to you now 》》 Abide in the ground, grow out of your covering, endure the pruning and abound therein with thanksgiving. That they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Let your light so shine is equivalent to how much effect this charge has on your candle.

Selah,
The Distinguished.

    P.S: In conclusion, why is it that we remember songs we learnt way back as 2012 but don't seem to recall what we were taught in Grade 8?
    Has anybody ever applied 'factorization' or formular method to a real life issue?
    I know of logic and probability and permutations being used in day to day activities but what about x=-b +/-[square root of b^2-4ac]/2a? I don't even know if I got the formula, lmao.
    I want to hear your views abeg. If you ignore, your helper will not ignore you l'oruko Jesu♥

      What I can say is that we actually remember songs because we willingly learn it... But for formula and the likes most time we actually cramp it just to know and pour down during exams..

      Yurrrrr
      I get your point. I can't imagine myself loving formulas so I just cram and pour.
      Thanks for your brilliant comment dear♥

    I actually think the issue as regards the memory of songs is that of the mind. Consciously or unconsciously we tend to pick up what our mind desires as much as we choose to like it

7 Reasons why you shouldn't delve into a relationship as a teenager.

Image
Relationships are really sweet. When I say relationship, I mean romance/love relationship. And if you’ll agree, teenage love relationships are usually the loveliest. You guys are still rocking your teen adventure, full of energy and glowing looks. Nowadays, it is somewhat strange to see an average 21st-century teenager who’s never been or isn’t in a love bond. They call it boyfriend and girlfriend and it’s been made so obligatory that there are some insecurities you feel when you are not in one. In my secondary school days, I could remember how guys who had no girlfriend were evacuated from groups in the class. Nobody wants to regard you if you’re not among. So, everyone seeks to have a love relationship even when they are far from the prerequisites. Having a love life in your teenage years isn’t a bad thing to do. Of course, there are folks whose relationship survived the storms and are now happily married. It works, but it’s almost rare. A lov...

Journey With My First Boo 2

Image
We started talking and he went to the issue of kissing but this time, he said he would not force me if I wasn't ready. I was deeply in love with him. (or so you thought) I closed all the windows so no one would see us and I said “Kiss me”. He kissed me and he said “let's have Sex”. {Insert mysterious tune here} I told him I was a Virgin and that there would be blood everywhere and he jokingly said, “how many tanks of blood do you have there?”. He told me there was a way he would do it and everything was going to be fine. I felt that I was ready and I was really going to have sex with him but I remembered something. My elder sisters got pregnant when they were teenagers and I was just 16 as at that time. I told him to stop that I wasn't ready. Then he stopped and told me he was leaving. That was the last time I saw him and the relationship ended. It has been 3 years since then and we haven’t been communicating. You can guess what my age is now, right. I am in my last l...
