Making A Real Difference.
It was supposed to be just a short trip, but for that which I sought, I had to go the full distance, did you miss me?
I went in pursuit of my dream, so I could get the money to fund your dreams to the fullest, was my absence noticed?
It was lonely out there, the nights were cold and the days were cloudy, I missed you a whole lot, was the feeling mutual?
I worked my hands to the bones, sweated to my brows, even shed a tear or two, please tell me, did you miss me?
I missed your company, your voice on the phone made me miss you even more, your picture was my daily motivation, can you tell me it wasn’t all for nothing?
Out there, I heard stories. Of wives giving up on their men. I saw men loose their wits, when they heard their love had lost love for them. Can you tell me my fate ain’t like theirs?
You were the fairest of them all, the one every man desired, when you said yes, it was a dream come true, have my dream turned into my worst nightmare?
Night after night, I fought temptations, the ladies were there, the money was there, but my lady I miss, was it all in vain?
I wasn’t here, he was here, you had needs, he was here, you could have waited, he was here, can you tell me you choose to wait?
It was for you, for us I had to go. Our future, I wanted it to be filled with gold. Just a few nights, to brave the cold. Did you choose right?
I was laughed at. I was called a fool for believing you were waiting. Someone even paid for me to have a go. He still misses his money, but I told the Miss she wasn’t my Mrs. Can I tell them they were wrong?
Yes. I stayed long. Yes. I missed you. Yes I am back to never leave again. Yes. We are set for life. I need to know though, did you miss me? Did you wait for me? Or am I the new town fool?

2 months ago by mardlifetv Finding The Open Door (The Good Life) As Christians, we spend a lot of time praying and praising. A resultant effect of this is that God consistently open doors we need to be opened up for us. In the book of revelation, Jesus Christ wrote a letter to each of seven churches. To one of this churches, he wrote that because they have been faithful in the face of massive opposition, adversities and temptations, he was setting an open door before them that no man can shut. “I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door,
2 months ago by mardlifetv There is a rising sentiment among Nigerians that the government should sell the country, share the proceeds, so we can all move on with our lives. Despite how funny that sounds, a ridiculous amount of people are actually buying more into the idea daily. When successive governments have failed in educating its populace, the laughable suddenly seems feasible. As our Yoruba kindred will say, the child that is not well taught will eventually sell off everything in the house. Even if we were to find a willing buyer, can we trust any government to sell Nigeria and fairly share the
3 days ago by mardlifetv No. It's Not You Against The World Thanks to 2 Pac Shakur's 1995 Album, the concept of "Me Against The World" has been reinforced into pop culture. I was a kid back then and can't find it anywhere in public literature if there was a belief of "Me and the World versus Everything else". I keep seeing people who have bad habits, people who are incompetent at what they do and people who choose to be uninformed live their lives struggling to get to the Pinnacle. When they fail in achieving this, they blame it on the world, the universe
4 days ago by mardlifetv I just had a very long break from writing. Did it have anything to do with the Christmas or New Year Holidays? No. Was it well deserved or even deserved? Nope. Did I enjoy it? I can't say yet. What other question do I have? Why Glorious? This might not be a popular opinion, but I'll stand by it; Macklemore has gotten one of the best discography in hip hop. Before you agree or not, do take a look at all of his albums and place it side by side some of the all time greats. If you want to

2 months ago by mardlifetv Beauty Lies In The Eyes Of The Beholder (IDIOMS AND PROVERBS) Indeed, there was a time when beauty truly lay in the eyes of the beholder. A time when men were open to judgement and did judge each other honestly. Beauty was nonpartisan, always truthful, unbiased, respected and built on common values. When someone commented that something was beautiful, we trusted his judgement because it was untainted. The rationale, metrics and principles on which each issue was judged is known to all. We might not all agree with each other’s definition, but we all knew it was from a good
3 days ago by mardlifetv The song Save Myself by Ed Sheeran describes the unhealthy situation, relationship and “situation ship” a lot of us are in. The problem is there are some of us who give out everything we are and have, just to ensure everyone around us is alright. We sacrifice ourselves for the satisfaction of others. You give your materials, finances, intellect, emotions, hope, aspirations and prayers, just to make sure the ones you love get the best out of life. After that what next? Who is Super Man’s Super Man? Who comes to save Wonder Woman when She needs Saving? What is
4 days ago by mardlifetv Coming into the third week of this year, I had a topic in mind to resume blogging with. That was until a few hours before I started writing. Suddenly, the word ACCOUNTABILITY was stuck on my mind. Accountability is defined as The state of being accountable. It can be described as being responsible, liable or a answerable. It is knowing your actions can be brought under scrutiny and you will be given plaudits or knocks commensurate to your actions. In this age of "My Truth", a lot of us live with a warped sense of reality, where we expect praises
2 days ago by mardlifetv I, Tinu and Hezekiah were best of friends through the first two years of Junior Secondary School. I should say I and Tinu, because her relationship with Hezekiah could best be described as best of "frenemies". They were constantly at each other's throats, yet they would defend each other against "external aggression". And no, it wasn't Hezekiah doing the defending. It was mostly Tinu. Let me just say here that Tinu is a firecracker. Hezekiah, though a couple of years older than myself and Tinu was quite a cool guy. He never threw his age or physical strength in our
4 days ago by mardlifetv Abraham Lincoln’s Letter Addressing Rumors Of Infidelity (Words And Life) Abraham Lincoln despite winning a congressional election choose to address rumors spread by his opponent Peter Cartwright. Lincoln had lost in the counties of Marshall (like Marshall Eriksson from How I met your mother) and Woodford (that reminds me of nothing). I have always been of the opinion that it will be easier for a Muslim to win the US Presidential Elections than an Atheist of a Scientologist. They might be one secretly, but they dare not hold such belief in public and expect to have a political career. (Maybe
2 days ago by mardlifetv Why do men cheat? Do all men cheat? Are all men trash? Are all men dogs? Who is Scooby, who is Bingo? Why do men cheat? Are men polygamous in nature? Are polygamous men faithful to their many wives? Does the concept of cheating applies within a polygamous relationship? Can a man satisfy his wife so much that he earns the right to marry another wife? Does a man need the permission of his spouse to get an extra spouse? Is love really cursed by monogamy? Would polygamy be the fix and make a man not cheat anymore? Why do
2 days ago by mardlifetv One by Tiwa Savage is a song of prayer in readiness for a New Year where we will be counted amongst those who have truly been blessed. This is a song you are supposed to not over-introduce or over-describe before it begins. In truth, we cannot oversell this song to you, but at the same time, as someone who doesn’t understand Yoruba language, you would just have to enjoy the melody with the knowledge that this is a song that is all about a better, bigger and bountiful year ahead of you. Enjoy Mama JamJam at her finest. Listen to
