Once you are in a relationship you think it is going to last forever. But in reality, it only lasts for as long as you and your friend/partner is working for it.  Now here’s the catch; if one of the parties involved (either you or your friend/partner) stops investing effort through sacrifice, support, respect, trust, mutual understanding, spending some time together or just communicating over a long period - to make the friendship/relationship work, guess what happens next – THE RELATIONSHIP FALLS APART ( Always Remember This) Can you relate?

Wow! Time flies fast. Memories from the 5th day (in November) last year, 2019, remain fresh in my mind. It was my very first day at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) orientation camp where I met several others like myself who had left the comfort of their homes/families for sake of fulfillment, excitement or perhaps sheer necessity; to experience something different from the predictability of college life. Apparently, my first 60 hours staying at the camp were not as fun as I thought it should be... Perhaps I wasn't the only one who felt this way after realizing that: one had to share a room which was poorly ventilated with 29 others of akin gender, one also had to leave anything one was doing to report to the parade ground immediately one heard the sound of the loud beagle, one would be all dressed in white 98% of the three weeks one had to spend in camp, one wasn't always guaranteed access to running water nor a socket for re-charging essential devices.

Many  achievers have felt the same way too; but that didn’t stop them, neither should  it stop  you too.

"Creativity is related to 9 of the top 10 skills that global executives say is essential for 2020 and beyond." – World Economic Forum   So what really is "Creativity"? According to Stefan Mumaw, who has authored six books on creativity,  "Creativity is problem-solving with relevance and novelty." It also is,  "the ability to combine and recombine bits of information — either from your store of memories and knowledge or from the outside environment — in novel, original, and useful ways,”  says Shelley Carson, author of  Your Creative Brain: Seven Steps to Maximize Imagination, Productivity, and Innovation in Your Life.

Life is like a stage play...  There are Scenes in the Acts of life, and there are many Acts in the Play called life; fortunately, God Himself is the playwright of life - Now, He already has illustrated severally in the manual for life (The HOLY BIBLE) that though we may experience a few tough scenes, we are not to be shaken because the play doesn't end a tragedy. So don't leave the theater yet, cast your cares upon Him, sit still, as you're about to experience your scene change for the better, because what the enemy meant for evil would serve as a stepping stone to a brighter future.
