TruthOrator Daily Mind Refreshment And Food For Thought

Don't compare yourself with anyone in this world...if you do so, you are insulting yourself. --Bill Gates If you celebrate your differentness, the world will, too. It believes exactly what you tell it—through the words you use to describe yourself, the actions you take to care for yourself, and the choices you make to express yourself. Tell the world you are one-of-a-kind creation who came here to experience wonder and spread joy. Expect to be accommodated. --Victoria Moran Having a low opinion of yourself is not 'modesty.' It's self-destruction. Holding your uniqueness in high regard is not 'egotism.' It's a necessary precondition to happiness and success. --Bobbe Sommer People leave imprints on our lives, shaping who we become in much the same way that a symbol is pressed into the page of a book to tell you who it comes from. Dogs, however, leave paw prints on our lives and our souls, which are as unique as fingerprints in every way. --Ashly Lorenzan...

Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning do to do afterward. --Kurt Vonnegut Transformation is my favorite game and in my experience, anger and frustration are the result of you not being authentic somewhere in your life or with someone in your life. Being fake about anything creates a block inside of you. Life can’t work for you if you don’t show up as you. --Jason Mraz People always think tears are a sign of weakness. They’re a sign of FRUSTRATION. She’s only crying so she won’t cut your throat in your sleep. So make nice and be grateful. --Donna Barr I am tired of people saying that poor character is the only reason people do wrong things. Actually, circumstances cause people to act a certain way. It's from those circumstances that a person's attitude is affected followed by weakening of character. Not the reverse. If we had no faults of our own, we should not take so much pleasure in no...

It is a new day, stop hating yourself for everything you aren't. Start loving yourself for everything that you are. Don’t chase people,be yourself, do your own thing and work hard. The right people, the ones who really belong in your life,will come to you. People will notice the change in your attitude towards them, but won't notice their behavior that made you change.

If you want to feel good, choose to walk in faith.” — Liam Tinker Believe in you heart that there is no such thing as a hopeless situation because every single circumstance of your life can change.

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. —Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. —Ambrose Redmoon You must be the change you wish to see in the world. —Gandhi When hungry, eat your rice; when tired, close your eyes. Fools may laugh at me, but wise men will know what I mean. —Lin-Chi The third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the majority. The second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the minority. The first-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking. —A. A.

Lagos Communities and the Influx of Illegal Drugs

The drug law enforcement agencies must have gone on a sabbatical as what is visible around the Lagos metropolis can only be possible due to a very long and uninterrupted holiday of those with the responsibility of checking illicit and illegal drug trafficking, peddling and abuse. A departure from this might be that some drug barons have become untouchable and their monies are now important to some top shots in the City thereby giving their products a free passage within the State, or there is a deliberate attempt to subtly legalize psycho-active substances by making the sight and usage of such a normalcy overtime through the authorities ignoring drug related activities amongst the peoples.  Some years ago, we used to have communities that were regarded as black spots as those where the places where uncensored and almost unrestricted drug activities were a norm. I can remember I stayed close to a street where you would think there is an industrial burning going on from the sight...

10 Things Every Man Should Know How To Do

We are all as different as we can be, we men. We come in all shades and sizes and understanding how different we are is a very wise move for better co-existence. That said, there are attributes that we should all posses; attributes that will lead to attitudes that will foster better relationship with other men and of course, women. This list is in no way exhaustive; we could go on and on but these ten things are proven enhancers of a great life: 1. Learn to say: I love you. I am sorry. I forgive you, after you have learnt to say please and thank you. Say nothing more afterwards.  If you are not absolutely sure, never make these 3 statements. It is better to hurt her honestly than deceive her with a lie. 2. Cry: Yeah, cry. I know what you are thinking: ‘Cry? How?! Isn’t that what sissies do? A real man doesn’t cry, simple!’ Not exactly bro. Have you ever wondered why women tend to like vulnerable men? No, I don’t mean you should cry at the drop of a hat or turn into the myth...
