THE GIFT OF A SMILE



Yes, I’m at it again. You should know that my pen is ever ready to share and today I’m letting you in on a little secret to a more successful and happy life; “the gift of a smile”.
Gifts are good and everybody loves to receive one. Gifts have a way of adding color to our day and lubricating our relationships. However not too many people give gifts, especially the inexpensive gift of a smile. Most of us are caught up in our busy schedules that we put on an “I don’t care attitude” as we ignore obvious pains and mind our businesses. Well, as believers, our God expects more from us. He desires from us a life of impact and compassion so we cannot but care.

More so, life is about value exchange. Whatsoever you give you get in increased measure. When we add value to others, we receive the same value in 100 folds.  So when you give a smile, you enrich yourself. In fact when you give a smile often, you increase your chances of living longer, being more productive and looking younger.
Not only will a genuine concern for others and healthy interpersonal relationships rid us of the negative energy that impedes progress, it will also increase our chances of a better life. With every smile we gift comes endless possibilities.
One of my favorite routine every day is teasing and playing jokes with people around me including my friends on social networks. I derive fulfillment and inner refreshment from such interactions. You can enjoy the same. Tell a joke; create an aura of fun and excitement around you. Let hearts yearn for your company, it makes outreach easier. Be a source of life, be a light. Remember God so loves us he gave Jesus, if you love as He expects you to you’ll be a giver. I beseech you to start small by putting a smile on someone’s face today and every day.

Inspirational: #In Your Best Interest

You've always had the flair for writing,  for literature,  for books,  for arts.  You are a very brilliant person so naturally you can survive in any class you find yourself - arts,  social sciences or pure sciences. Your parents have always being proud of you cause you've always blazed the trail.  What parents wouldn't be proud??? In primary school,  you were the best student and that saw you going for every competition and winning medals upon medals. When it was time for the "standard living" play,  the doctor spot was reserved for you. "Doctors are the smartest people in the world so you are the most suitable for the spot" your teacher had told your mom. Senior secondary school saw you sashaying effortlessly into the pure science classes,  you are a natural, just like Einstein.  you made A's with so much swags and ease.  Again your teachers,  parents, family members,  friends and village people said you can't waste y...

2016 Review: Ikpefua Joy, My Year Review

2016 Review: Ikpefua Joy, My Year Review Hmmm...Don't even know where and how to start from. 2016 has been quite a year. 2016 to me has been one of those years I enjoyed unmerited favour and grace. God has been faithful despite my unfaithfulness. Yea, I was written off...I have been trodden upon and yes, I've been told to my face that I cannot attain the heights I'm striving so hard to attain because I don't have what it takes...and sometimes I'd believed that. Obvious challenges has stared at my face that threatened my resolutions and determinations but it is amazing that amidst it, God has always proved His Supremacy and rulership over my life. 2016 has taught me a lot.

LESSON AND BLESSING THIS YEAR SO FAR....... The year 2016 has been a year full of great blessings and greater lessons. Here, i will start with the lessons, and the first is not to trust in man But God only. Uhmmmm, there are times in our dear life that we put our hope in man not that we don't believe in what God can do But really cant say what happen not until it dawn on us that our only hope should be in God because He's the master planner of everything.      Secondly, i learnt that friendship have categories and you don't get Love in return from all friends (Smile). Its not that they hate you But have some other people on top of there friendship list, they might not be better than you do, But i got to know that no matter how you try, you cannot just force Love. Also, i got to understand the pain inner tears causes and the solution of crying the pains out to have an inner joy though not easy But one will just continue to hurt the mind. I will also like to talk ...
