YOUR MOM MAKES ME HAPPY* *Episode 4: A Family Affair* Omar decided it was time for Sarah to meet his family. He was excited to introduce her to the people he loved, and he hoped they would love her just as much. As they arrived at his parents' house, Omar's mom, Fatima, greeted them with a warm smile. "It's so nice to finally meet you, Sarah!" she exclaimed, hugging her tightly. Sarah was charmed by Fatima's warmth and hospitality. She felt at ease as they sat down for dinner, surrounded by Omar's family. Ahmed, Omar's dad, asked Sarah questions about her interests and hobbies, and she impressed him with her intelligence and kindness. As the evening progressed, Omar watched Sarah laugh and joke with his family, feeling grateful that they seemed to get along so well. He knew that his family was important to him, and it meant a lot that they liked Sarah. After dinner, Fatima pulled Omar aside and whispered, "She's lovely, beta (son). You two seem perfect for each other." Omar smiled, feeling happy that his mom approved. "Thanks, Mom. I'm really falling for her." Fatima smiled back. "I can see that. Just remember, relationships take work, but if you both are committed, you can build a beautiful life together." Omar nodded, taking his mom's words to heart. He knew that he wanted to spend the rest of his life making Sarah happy, and he hoped she felt the same way... (To be continued...)

YOUR MOM MAKES ME ME HAPPY *Episode 3: A Deeper Connection* As the days turned into weeks, Omar and Sarah's relationship blossomed. They spent countless hours exploring the city, trying new restaurants, and laughing together. Omar felt like he was getting to know Sarah on a deeper level, and he was amazed by their connection. One evening, as they sat on the couch, watching a movie, Omar turned to Sarah and asked, "What makes you happy?" Sarah thought for a moment before responding, "I find happiness in the little things – a beautiful sunset, a good book, or a warm cup of coffee on a chilly morning. But most of all, I find happiness in the people I love and who love me back." Omar's heart swelled with emotion. He felt like he had found someone who understood the importance of love and connection. He leaned in and kissed her, feeling a spark of electricity run through his body. As they pulled back, Sarah smiled and said, "I love the way you make me feel. You have a way of calming my nerves and making me feel like everything will be okay." Omar's heart skipped a beat. He knew that he felt the same way about her. He took her hand and said, "I love the way you make me feel too. You bring light and joy into my life."

"The struggle you’re in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow." - Ernest Hemingway Nature doesn’t rush, yet everything transforms in its own time. The process is often painful, but it’s also beautiful—because it’s how strength and beauty are born. Think about the caterpillar. It doesn’t just change—it completely falls apart. Its body turns to mush, dissolving into a soupy mess inside the chrysalis. For days, it’s neither caterpillar nor butterfly, just liquid chaos. But that breakdown is necessary. From that messy, almost ugly transformation, wings finally emerge. A baby giraffe falls six feet to the ground at birth. Then its mother kicks it, forcing it to stand. Harsh? Yes. But those first wobbly steps are what make its legs strong enough to run. A seed buried in darkness doesn’t stay there forever. It cracks, it pushes, it fights through the dirt—until one day, it breaks into the light as a tree. Even the mightiest rivers start as small, uncertain streams. They carve through rock not by force, but by persistence. The process is hard. It’s messy. It hurts. But it’s also the only way to become what you’re meant to be. So be grateful for the struggle. The pressure. The waiting. The unbecoming before the becoming. What feels like breaking you is actually building you. Trust the process. "We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope." — Romans 5:3-4 Good Day and Happy Sunday.

An eagle once taught a woman how to raise a child. — Are you alright, human mother? — the eagle asked. The woman looked at her, startled. — I’m afraid. My baby is about to be born, and I have so many doubts. I want to give them the best, a beautiful, easy life… but how will I know if I’m raising them right? The eagle perched nearby and replied: — Raising a child isn’t about keeping them comfortable. It’s the opposite. When my eaglets are born, I line the nest with soft feathers and grass. It’s warm, safe. But when the time comes for them to grow, I remove it all. I leave only the thorns. The woman frowned. — Thorns? Isn’t that cruel? The eagle looked her in the eyes. — Discomfort pushes them to move. The thorns make them want more — to fly, to find their place. Comfort teaches nothing. The woman hesitated, still uncertain. — And if they fall? The eagle nodded. — They do fall. I throw them into the wind. They drop. I catch them. I throw them again. Over and over — until they learn to fly. And then? I let them go. I don’t help anymore. The woman’s eyes widened. — But what if they’re not ready? — They won’t be, until they try. If I keep them safe forever, they’ll never learn. It’s not about letting them suffer. It’s about letting them grow. Even when it hurts you. The woman placed her hand on her belly, breathed deeply, and smiled. — Thank you, Mother Eagle, she whispered. Your wisdom is a gift. She walked away — ready to be the mother her child would need: not perfect, but strong. A mother who teaches them to fly. If you want your child to soar high — don’t clip their wings with comfort. Let them feel the wind. Let them stumble. Let them rise. True love isn’t sheltering them from life. It’s teaching them how to live it. Even if that means watching them fall… so they can learn to fly.

BILLIONAIRE CHOSE HIS MAID OVER HIS FIANCÉE — AND PAID THE PRICE Darlington Obi, the sole heir to the OB group holdings, had never been one for surprises. Yet, on that breezy Wednesday afternoon, he arrived at his estate without alerting anyone. Not his staff, not his fianceé, not even his mother, who usually micromanaged his every step. His flight from London had landed earlier than expected, and for the first time in years, he wanted to walk into his mansion without the burden of fanfare or formal greetings. The towering black gates slid open silently, and his convoy remained outside while he stepped in alone, holding just a leather bag and wearing a simple black polo with navy blue slacks. The stillness inside was unsettling. The chandelier above the entrance cast soft shadows on the white marble floor as he made his way toward the kitchen, drawn by the faint sound of music and laughter. It was not the kind of laughter that came from privilege or pretense. It was genuine, pure, melodic and strangely contagious. And there she was, barefoot on the tiled floor, her wrapper tied loosely around her waist, headscarf swaying as she spun in slow circles with a mop in one hand and her other hand lifted toward the ceiling like a ballerina. She danced like someone who didn't know the world was watching, like someone whose joy wasn't dependent on money or fame. The Bluetooth speaker beside the pantry hummed with a soft tune by Asa, and every step she took fell in rhythm with the song Darlington froze. Not because she was the most beautiful woman he had seen, though her smooth dark skin and natural smile lit something within him, but because her freedom, her joy, and her authenticity struck him like lightning in a dry season. For a man who had seen the world closed billionaire deals and walked red carpets with women who wore diamonds like clothing, this moment felt like a window into a life he had forgotten existed. It wasn't just about attraction. It was about something deeper. peace, purity, and presence. He didn't say a word, just watched until she twirled, startled to see him standing there. She gasped, fumbled with the mop, and almost slipped. "Oga, I'm sorry," she stammered, her voice trembling. "I didn't know you were back." Her eyes widened with fear, perhaps thinking she would be scolded or fired for using the speaker. "But Darlington only smiled and shook his head gently." Don't stop," he said softly, stepping further into the room. "I've never seen someone dance like that so free." Her eyes dropped to the floor as she apologized again, reaching to turn off the music. But he stopped her hand. That moment marked a shift, a dangerous one. In that small space of silence between her heartbeat and his, something unspoken was born. and neither of them knew that everything in their world was about to change because of a dance upstairs in a bedroom laced with velvet curtains and French perfume. Cassandra Au scrolled through her tablet while a maid painted her toenails a radiant shade of wine. She had no idea Darlington had returned. And even if she did, she wouldn't have rushed downstairs to welcome him. That wasn't her style. Love to her was about possession, a calculated alliance between her family's legacy and his. She was a daughter of Chief Au, an oil tycoon whose influence ran through political veins like blood. The engagement between Cassandra and Darlington was a merger of powerhouses. To be continued...

*27 WAYS TO BUILD A HAPPY AND LONG LASTING MARRIAGE 👩🧑💖* Marriage is a beautiful and fulfilling relationship that requires commitment, love, and sacrifice. No matter what culture you belong to, what religion you believe, what society, level of wealth, or era you live in – one thing common to all people is that they want to be "happy", especially in their marriages. What Should you do? 1. Love the person you married, not the person you hoped you married. Accept your spouse totally. You cannot love a man/woman you do not accept. Stop comparing your spouse with anyone, he or she can never be somebody else. Until you accept your spouse, you can't get the best out of your marriage 2. Understand each other. No marriage succeeds without understanding. Learn to know one another as best as you can. Understand you are not the same and may never be. Respect that you are both individuals. Get to know each other strengths and weaknesses. Strengthen each other's weaknesses. 3. Be quick to forgive and quicker to apologize. Love forgives. Learn to accept apology. Freely forgive your spouse’s past, present and future offenses. Never refer to his/her past mistakes. Never go to bed with anger or unsettled quarrel. Marriage is two forgivers living together. 4. Ask your spouse, "What can I do for you today?" every single day. 5. Never talk bad about your spouse to other people. Protect him or her and always keep his or her name safe. Fight for each other, not with each other. 6. Have lots of s*x. Enjoy S*x with your spouse. Never withhold s*x as a punishment. 7. Keep the word "divorce" out of your vocabulary. Remember your vows. Review them on a regular basis. 8. Provide for the needs of your spouse and children. Never be stingy to your spouse. Care for his/her needs. Be generous to him/her. Pay your children’s school fees promptly and regularly. Marriage is not 50/50. It's 100/100. Give yourself entirely, and don't hold back. Men, Be sensitive to your wife’s needs. Spend money to beautify her. 9. Be faithful to your spouse. Being unfaithful is the easiest way to completely ruin your marriage. Adultery kills. 10. Understand and learn each other's love language. Either it can be words, gifts, touch, actions, etc. If it is words, then frequently tell your spouse you love and appreciate him/ her. If it is action: regularly do things that they appreciate: either take the garbage out, wash the dishes, cook the food, wash the car, etc Spoil each other. Keep track of the things your spouse loves and buy them for him or her. 11. Communication is the key to a relationship. Talk like friends and lovers. Don’t make your spouse guess what you are thinking or feeling. Don't expect him/her to read your mind. You should feel free to discuss all things without fear. 12. Always listen attentively to your spouse. Switch off your phone or television, shut down your computer or iPad and newspapers, books and magazine should be closed. The greatest communication skill you can develop is the listening skill. Be quiet and patient while he/she is speaking, when he/she is done, you can express your opinion. Look straight into his/her eyes when he is talking to you or when you’re talking to him. This will make him/her feel that you are interested in what he/she wants to say. 13.

It does not matter what, even if it is to eat together, bath together, watch movies together, read books together and share light conversation 22. Do NOT look at other marriages and covet. No marriage is prefect. Remember, the grass is not greener on the other side. You will still have to maintain, mow and weed that side too! 23. Work at your marriage. If you ever lack motivation for your marriage and feel like the flame has gone dead. Just try to imagine yourself without your spouse. Talk to anyone who has lost their soul mate and they'll tell you that they will give anything to have back that special someone. Remember, it is your marriage and you have come this far. Make the best of it. Pledge to yourself that you will do your part and try your best. Remember that you chose your spouse for forever. 24. All issues need to have a solution and be resolved at the time of the conversation. Finish what you start otherwise things just hang in the balance,which leads to future problems. 25. Don't make mountains out of mole hills. Don't waste your time fighting over little things. It's not worth it. Let small things go. 26. Don't broadcast your problems to everyone else. If you need to talk to someone about it, other than your spouse, get a therapist. 27. Above all: Serve God together, Pray together & Pray for one another. Pray for your spouse daily in your personal prayers. Be specific. Talk to God about his or her challenges and trials, and ask Him what you can do to be a better spouse. You will not fail in your marriage in Jesus name Kindly share..
