DO YOU GUYS AGREE TO THIS LOGIC?

If a friendship lasts longer than  7 years, psychologists say it will last a life time. 

What do you guys think? Please share your thoughts.

Hmmm another tough one dear Neme. Well I think if you're fortunate to have a wonderful human being who possesses some rare and beautiful qualities as a friend, and you both are willing to overlook each other's faults then the friendship might last a long time and possibly stay for as long as you both( in this context :forever) however to me, after 7 years a friend can decide to walk away from your friendship for reasons best known to them, never a guarantee they will last a lifetime. This is my honest opinion.. Hopefully I will get to read what people have to say based on their own experiences :)X

Friendship that has lasted for seven years is not a strong premise for continuity. The inconsistency of behavioural patterns is being exhibited every now and then due to change of priorities, movement in social class, value system, and hierarchy. Of course people change everyday and a ''close friend'' can wake up one morning for reasons best known to him or her and decide to do things differently...the length of years as people with mutual affinity isn't part of the equation. Therefore it is rather an irrational insinuation to base the continuity of friendship on on the premise of the number of years involved.

Wow. Thank you so much Dear Laura and Ucheoma. Your comments are well appreciated. I must say your reasons are very strong and I can't agree less. If an ugly relationship that struggled to get to 7 years and one party is still crying of pain, lack of mutual love and respect and so on, isn't it wise to run away from such a relationship, no matter how long it had been? So the years isn't a yardstick to measure a healthy relationship or one that will last forever so to say. THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR COMMENTS

WORD FOR THE DAY

If someone talks rudely to a person, it is important to remain calm and not react with hostility. Instead, it is helpful to try to understand why the person is behaving that way and address the situation calmly and respectfully.  If the behavior continues to be disrespectful or abusive, it may be necessary to set boundaries or seek help from a trusted authority figure or support system.

Waiting is painful. The pain is excruciating. Waiting makes you look stupid as though na only you waka come. But, keep feeding your faith during the painful season of waiting! Romans 10:17. Something I've learnt; seasons of waiting are not seasons of inactivity. A lot is going on! GOD is working; orchestrating events. Happy New Month. 😇

IT'S TIME TO DETACH FROM YOUR STORIES.

Image
  A lot of us talk about our stories; in fact, we find comfort in talking about them. But from my own experience, I have realised that our stories restrict us.  There's this terrible feeling of regret and sadness when we talk about the things that lowered us. It's a weight that we carry around with us every day, with the hope that someone (with his or her own baggage) validates our story; which in real sense is an obstacle to our true freedom.  These stories limit us, yet we continue to hold on to them. But, friend, it is time to detach from your stories; let it go. You have learnt your lessons, now its time to drop that story and move on‼️
