I thought about what to write and all that came to mind was this- 'quotable quotes'. As my blog is about everything and anything that i think will be beneficial to you, i came up with this.
Have there been a point in your life where you were sick of your weakness, where you were about to throw in the towel? Well here are some quotes that will lift your morals and spirit up to the point of achieving greatest. Though I don't know their author but I hope it will serve its purpose.
QUOTABLE QUOTES
-All achievement starts from daring to begin.
-Everything big starts little. Try to determine your worth, don't let others do it for you.
-No one on the face of this earth can make you inferior without your permion.
-Discover your talent and calling. Believe you can make and so shall it be.
-Study the lives of successful people.
-Meditate on your strength and ability and learn to encourage yourself.
-Decide to be the best you can be. Don't compare yourself with anyone.
-Don't allow your short comings or failure to weigh you down. Neglect them.
-Depression begins with a paralyzed mind so free yourself from all negatives thoughts.
-We lose because we told ourselves we lost.
-The key to failure is trying to please everyone.
-It is attitude not aptitude that determines your altitude.
-If you want to succeed in any area of your life, you have to have a dream and plans to reach that dream.
-If you can not develop a dream for your future, you then can not plan for the future which certainly means you have no goal in life. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Love Story
Why Does Love Hurt?
Have you ever been in love before? What did it feel like? You must have felt like the happiest human on planet earth. Yea, that's love.
I have felt that way one certain time. I am not talking about crush 'cos everyone must have had a crush on someone sometime. That is a sure one. Well, I didn't really know what love was till I met this man, Joseph. He came to me in the name of the Lord and I was like waoh! Earlier on, I had. Prayed for a God sent. A man from God as a life partner.
I didn't really accept him until after 2 years, though he was always on my mind. I wanted to be with him from the start but I was too timid to break the relationship I was in and claim him as my parcel/gift.
When I finally broke the tie, I accepted him. The funniest thing is that he was waiting for me. When I finally accepted him, I was the happiest woman in earth. There was this joy I felt in me just knowing I had him. I was so magnificent that I could have done anything just to be with him and have him by my side. It was like heaven on earth. You must have been there if not try experiencing it. It is worth it.
Things didn't really stay cosy. We started experiencing problems that lovers encounter, but ours was beyond limit. The sweet feeling I had from the beginning started decipating gradually and I felt like l had lost him. The love of my life. I needed his attention but he was too busy to give it. He needed my submission but I was too hurt to obey. Like a child's play communication was cut down to once in a blue moon. I was not happy. I guess he wasn't either. I thought maybe I should lay my cards on the table and beg him to come back to me. Can love hurt this much? I ask myself. I pain I feel within me is more than any physical injury. I don't enjoy any other company cos I yearn for his.(sigh). We have become familiar strangers. So pathetic isn't it?
I want the man I fell in love with. The man whose smile is entrancing. I could stare at him forever. I could tell him anything and bare my very soul to hi.
'Oh life! What have you done with my love? Why have you taken him from me? Oh my love where are you? Please come back to my awaiting heart. Please come home.
Have you ever felt this frustrated or been in this situation before? Write and tell your experience and how you overcame it. If you are still faced with such problem like myself, stay tuned to read the response of others.
Yours friend, Christiana Joseph.

Lifes Musings...
The Search For Ultimate Beauty.
What we define as beauty changes with each generation, each new phase of fashion and what seems accepted by society. Often times we hear of extreme cases like the story of Claudia Aderotimi who died from getting'butt shot' in her already 'shot up' butt, or the story of the Downes sisters who faced jail time for using stolen credit card details to pay for boob jobs costing around $4000 each. Yes, these are extreme cases and not everyone can be Cindy Jackson, who holds the Guinness world record for the most plastic surgeries done. This raises a question how far can women go in search for 'ultimate beauty'?
Men aren't exactly exempt from this search either and with the popularity of surgeries such as the height lengthening one, some men are turning to this expensive, painful procedure to be that tall, dark and handsome guy that most women dream of. However, this article focuses on the search for ultimate beautyaamong women because we are the ones who seems to forever be on that treasure hunt.
When you look around you, you will notice the different variations but yet similar versions of human hair, adorn our women today, or the attempt to be slightly lighter or 'toned' as they say. Crash diets and shape altering garments are among our best sellers even with local vendors selling traditional remedies for'quick' weight loss. Do not get me wrong. U believe in looking and feeling good. What I often wonder is 'who defines what beauty is today and what are women searching for'?
Most young ladies today are more confident in their looks when they have long silky and bouncy hair with the body measurement of a Barbie doll. Very few ladies are embracing their unique looks that they were created with and would do almost anything to look different. It's one thing to look like a better version of you through healthy eating and exercising butaattempting to look like a counterfeit version of someone else is a bit disturbing. In our society, the cheapest and most popular way of altering our looks is through skin lightening procedures. It is said that 77% of Nigerian women use skin-lightening products, which means something is wrong somewhere and our women aren't embracing their bodies.
I personally admire women who can rock their natural looks and be confident in who they are because even though media
Puts a lot of empemphasis on looks, it is the beauty from within that remains most important. To be honest, the world would be quite boring if we all looked the sane. We would be talking about the Tyrant forehead, the Omotola figure, the Jolie lips or how Nse Ikpe Etim's smile keeps us captivated.
There is no need searching for that perfect look because it really is what you see in the mirror, with all its imperfections, the ultimate beauty we seek is not what is defined by magazine cover but by what us in the inside which reflects unto the outside. So ladies let's stop searching for that ultimate beauty and embrace who we are, the original!
