Hey guys, it's so good to be back. Now, let's talk about LOVE. It’s a pretty common consensus that love takes work. Yet,  80 percent of Nigerians under 30 believe in a soulmate , the idea that there is one perfect person out there just waiting to be found. Even the expression “falling in love” makes it sound like love is out of our hands — that it just happens to us. Achieving long-lasting love isn’t usually easy, even when we meet the right person.

So how do we know when to give up on a relationship, and how do we know when to fight for it?

Then reminisce on how the characters might have lived differently, had they known what the end would be. . .      But real life has an urgency, so different from fiction and at the end, it cannot be changed. Now, if you're faced with the opportunity to change just one thing about your life, would you oblige? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or that change break your heart? It's always funny when people say "had it been Adam and Eve never ate that forbidden fruit, we would have lived a better life, no sin, no death, etc". It behooves me if it does really matter? Do you ever wonder, if we make moments in our lives or the moments in our lives makes us? People are going to disappoint you, you should expect that.
