Romance / Is She Cheating On Me? by KingKush01(m): 11:23am On Nov 23, 2019 |
She's always picking calls in secluded places. She also prevents me from going through her phone meanwhile she checks mine every now and then. So my friend showed me to one website that analyses relationship. I decided to use it and here's what it told me about my relationship and new babe. It seems real to me because I had been suspecting her of cheating for a while now. My friend thinks its undiluted truth but I'm yet to catch her red handed. 1 Like 1 Share

Health / How Do You Contain Body Odour Caused By Long Time Bleaching Cream Use? by KingKush01(m): 11:50am On Sep 12, 2019 |
Sometimes ago I used tura cream and tura soap to tone my skin color a little. This was like 6years ago. Now my skin is washed up and stinks badly. It doesn't smell like rotten fish associated with bleaching. It smells differently but very bad and offensive. This has plunged me into severe depression. |

Romance / The Purpose Of Life Is Not Happiness by KingKush01(m): 3:25am On Dec 11, 2018 |
As posted on http://LoudThoughts.com.ng For the longest time, I believed that thereās only purpose of life: And that is to be happy. Right? Why else go through all the pain and hardship? Itās to achieve happiness in some way. And Iām not the only person who believed that. In fact, if you look around you, most people are pursuing happiness in their lives. Thatās why we collectively buy shit we donāt need, go to bed with people we donāt love, and try to work hard to get approval of people we donāt like. Why do we do these things? To be honest, I donāt care what the exact reason is. Iām not a scientist. All I know is that it has something to do with history, culture, media, economy, psychology, politics, the information era, and you name it. The list is endless. We are who we are. Letās just accept that. Most people love to analyze why people are not happy or donāt live fulfilling lives. I donāt necessarily care about the why. I care more about how we can change. Just a few short years ago, I did everything to chase happiness. You buy something, and you think that makes you happy. You hook up with people, and think that makes you happy. You get a well-paying job you donāt like, and think that makes you happy. You go on holiday, and you think that makes you happy. But at the end of the day, youāre lying in your bed (alone or next to your spouse), and you think: āWhatās next in this endless pursuit of happiness?ā Well, I can tell you whatās next: You, chasing something random that you believe makes you happy. Itās all a faƧade. A hoax. A story thatās been made up. Did Aristotle lie to us when he said: āHappiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.ā I think we have to look at that quote from a different angle. Because when you read it, you think that happiness is the main goal. And thatās kind of what the quote says as well. But hereās the thing: How do you achieve happiness? Happiness canāt be a goal in itself. Therefore, itās not something thatās achievable. I believe that happiness is merely a byproduct of usefulness. When I talk about this concept with friends, family, and colleagues, I always find it difficult to put this into words. But Iāll give it a try here. Most things we do in life are just activities and experiences. You go on holiday. You go to work. You go shopping. You have drinks. You have dinner. You buy a car. Those things should make you happy, right? But they are not useful. Youāre not creating anything. Youāre just consuming or doing something. And thatās great. Donāt get me wrong. I love to go on holiday, or go shopping sometimes. But to be honest, itās not what gives meaning to life. What really makes me happy is when Iām useful. When I create something that others can use. Or even when I create something I can use. For the longest time I found it difficult to explain the concept of usefulness and happiness. But when I recently ran into a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the dots finally connected. Emerson says: āThe purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.ā And I didnāt get that before I became more conscious of what Iām doing with my life. And that always sounds heavy and all. But itās actually really simple. It comes down to this: What are you DOING thatās making a difference? Did you do useful things in your lifetime? You donāt have to change the world or anything. Just make it a little bit better than before you were born. If you donāt know how, here are some ideas. Help your boss with something thatās not your responsibility. Take your mother to a spa. Create a collage with pictures (not a digital one) for your spouse. Write an article about the stuff you learned in life. Help the pregnant lady who also has a 2-year old with her stroller. Call your friend and ask if you can help with something. Build a standing desk. Start a business and hire an employee and treat them well. Thatās just some stuff I like to do. You can make up your own useful activities. You see? Itās not anything big. But when you do little useful things every day, it adds up to a life that is well lived. A life that mattered. The last thing I want is to be on my deathbed and realize thereās zero evidence that I ever existed. Recently I read Not Fade Away by Laurence Shames and Peter Barton. Itās about Peter Barton, the founder of Liberty Media, who shares his thoughts about dying from cancer. Itās a very powerful book and it will definitely bring tears to your eyes. In the book, he writes about how he lived his life and how he found his calling. He also went to business school, and this is what he thought of his fellow MBA candidates: āBottom line: they were extremely bright people who would never really do anything, would never add much to society, would leave no legacy behind. I found this terribly sad, in the way that wasted potential is always sad.ā You can say that about all of us. And after he realized that in his thirties, he founded a company that turned him into a multi-millionaire. Another person who always makes himself useful is Casey Neistat. Iāve been following him for a year and a half now, and every time I watch his YouTube show, heās doing something. He also talks about how he always wants to do and create something. He even has a tattoo on his forearm that says āDo More.ā Most people would say, āwhy would you work more?ā And then they turn on Netflix and watch back to back episodes of Daredevil.A different mindset. Being useful is a mindset. And like with any mindset, it starts with a decision. One day I woke up and thought to myself: What am I doing for this world? The answer was nothing. And that same day I started writing. For you it can be painting, creating a product, helping elderly, or anything you feel like doing. Donāt take it too seriously. Donāt overthink it. Just DO something thatās useful. Anything. Originally posted on dariusforoux.com. Source: http://loudthoughts.com.ng/showtopics.php?id=34 |
