A glimpse of heaven.

By -
This phrase is synonymous with ecstasy... not the drug, but the word. It is an experience we would pay any price to have day in day out, it's the source of all addictions. Its appeal to our hedonistic nature, its pursuance is constant. But here is the question I pose to you today.

What does heaven look like?

Our biology will allude this phenomenon as the interplay of hormones at various parts of our brains at certain points in time, which generates the euphoria that we denote as heaven. These intricate, internal workings are stimulated by external stimuli that come in various forms.

Everyone has a source of such stimuli, it spans from unitary activities such as listening to music, poetry, carousing, smoking to multiperson activities, sports, hangouts, sex, etc. Whichever yours may be, it serves as an oasis of wellness. As indulging as any of these may be, they still fall short of the mark.

The greatest vista of heaven can only be gotten through Love. If it were a drug it would be priceless, if it were a place it would be uncharted, if it were a person it would be unnamed. It is an act performed in a mindless state, an exhibition of effusive affection which may be detrimental to the well being of the possessed, but for its reward it must be endured.

The unequivocal truth is, every act of love is rewarded with a glimpse of heaven. It is a key created by the celestial being to ensure that man never goes extinct, but transits from one existential plane to another.

Many translate the word love as karma, good karma is the singular most important criterion for admission into paradise. The amount of positive karma we generate stimulates the butterfly effect that travels far and wide and inevitably returns to us in many folds, at this point we see heaven.

So, there you have it. We should endeavour to do an act of love daily, asides bringing heaven to your purview, it also boosts self-esteem and preserves humanity.

COMFORT ZONE; WHY NOT?

By -
You need to step out of your comfort zone, you need to do something about this situation, you just can't wait for things to happen... these words are quite familiar to the one who has established or inherited a comfort zone. In a bid to challenge our creativity the comfort zone has been demonized and has become the object of criticism, especially as a core factor that supports unrealized dreams. Well, I have a different opinion. Firstly, the comfort zone is not a fixed concept or the contraption of a lazy mind. It is a dynamic, ephemeral and transient reality sustained by a strong desire for serenity. This cosseting environment is not given, it is either being worked for or had been worked for, and one thing central to its existence is that someone, at some point in time, thought it wise to create this niche of peace and quietude. while I am not averse to its improvement or upgrade, I will by no means undermine the efforts associated with its emergence. Secondly, most people a...

Know me, don't ask me to tell you.

When two rhythms meet, at first they are uncoordinated, but over time become harmonious, this should be the norm but sometimes we find that both rhythms remain out of sync bringing about a cacophony, disturbing to those who are unfortunate to be connected to this event by whatever means. To err is human, the quantum is what differentiates a misdemeanor from an atrocity, and both are based on the depth of the relationship shared by the parties involved. We say things we don’t mean apologize and then regret, and more often than not, our utterance does not evoke the response we such desire, instead it adds salt to injury. This might be as a result of a lack of due diligence on the culprit's part to decipher the right tone and timing to advance a complaint, observation or outright dismissal of an issue. We do things innocently that ends up hurting others in ways we did not imagine, and its worse when it’s someone we claim to love or have loved, who has set the security threat...

Speed of love

When is he gonna ask me out? Its been over a year and she’s still acting like we are just friends, I need to know if he loves me or not? These questions are not strange to anyone who has attempted to be in a romantic relationship. They play on a loop in our minds, we go to bed with them and wake up with them, they boggle our minds till the point of mental exasperation. So why has he/she not said the 8 lettered, 3 words, 1 phrase sentence? I have come to understand that we love as humans at different rates. For some its love at first sight, for others, its love while walking out the door, but one thing that’s constant is that when love is ripe it’s the most beautiful thing ever. What I aim to achieve with this write up is to turn our minds to those glaring reasons that stare us right in the face as to why we may not have gotten the assurance we need from a seemingly good relationship. Love threshold The functional unit of love is affection or trust depending on w...
