FRIENDS OR FRENEMY?


My BC on whatsapp few days ago.
#FRIENDSHIP; King Solomon said "there is a friend greater than a brother" (Emphasis Mine). I wonder how true it is in our world of today! Personally, I have seen & also have one, but I also believe one sure needs to be careful who you pick to be friends with! Your future depends on it! #Bevigilant!

You see, lately I began to ponder on this and it is amazing the amount of revelations you get from meditating!

There is no doubt whatsoever that you need people to work out you your success, but it also very necessary to understand that it is not just people you need but people who believes in you and your vision! king solomon who also said "Two heads(good) are better than one" Ecc. 4:9. (Emphasis mine)

people
Recently, one of my Fathers said; "The people doesn't just perish where there is no Vision, but the Vision also perish where there is no people" Now let me explain this, it isn't about surrounding yourself with people its about getting those who are ready to do anything necessary for the vision not to perish!


So what exactly is this post about? Well for starters, I want to provoke you to re-evaluate your friends or those you have working with you towards a particular goal! Prov. 13:20 He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.
Don't just have friends for the heck of it, have friends because together with them greatness and success is sure!

You have got to be careful who you pick as friends or business partners, many destinies have crashed just because they were in the wrong place with a friend at a wrong time!
Many businesses gone to the drain because a partner had hidden agender!
. Don't ever make the mistake of trying to please everybody, the harder you try, the more enemies you'll make!

Prov. 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. This is so important, because the reality is, as an iron, you can't be sharpened with rubber.
So the question is, till date how have those you call your friends/Partners contributed to your getting ahead in life; Positive/Negative?

 M arch 1st 2015 Hmm, where do I start from, don't really know how to do this, but I heard keeping a journal or Diary can help relieve stress, trust me, I have so much I need relief from. So I guess I will start with introducing myself... Dear diary, I am Temtope Olohuntoyin, friends call me temi, enemies? I don't really care much what they think. I was born some 27yrs ago into the family of mr and mrs olohuntoyin mom damilola dad bidemi. Live in Lagos Nigeria. My parents story, I think it's best we reserve it for another day, It is a handful. As an only child I am so loved, I went to the best of schools, have the best of everything, well almost everything... Recently, I over heard my friends talking about me, some how they think I have had everything handed down to me, born with a silver spoon, blah blah blah... I must say I was shocked at first, but then again that's what most friends do, talk about you behind your back. I just wish they knew it's not as

Diary Of A City Girl In The Village Episode IV

8pm Ha! Can't believe the trouble I had to go through just to cook myself something to eat, setting up a place to cook wasn't easy, the house where I got an accommodation is made up of six rooms with a long hall separating them, making it three rooms on each sides with no kitchen, it was like I was back to school again, only that this time it was very different. Back then at school, the houses were pretty, more comfy and it smelled better, plus I didn't really live in one of those houses I just visited some friends there. After much debate, I finally decided to set up my kitchen just outside my door, this meant I had to keep an eye on it not because I didn't want the food getting burnt but because I don't have much trust for anyone here yet, it's better safe than sorry! Back home, though I still complained about cooking but we pretty much had it easy! Too easy! You pretty much cooked and ate, slept at the same place. Life in the city is a distinct contrast

March 4th 2016 Dear diary, this is my second day here now and so far, it's been crazy! Came back late yesterday as I feared, turns out the bank was way off this Village! I was able to get some stuffs, even though they were not really up to my taste, I guess I will make do with what I have! I finally put a call through to my family, I called Lekan first, I could barely hear him, but he sounded angry, something about why I didn't tell him about my trip, I guess he called home and they told him about it... Awww, whatever! Mom was happy to finally hear from me, she kept asking "omo mi (my child) are you alright, are you safe, what are you eating, how are you coping?. ..  So many questions, I could barely say anything, when she finally gave me a chance to speak, I just told her I was ok, that she shouldn't worry about me. I guess Dad is still pissed at me, cos he wouldn't talk to me, mom said not to worry about him that he will eventually come around, so I have de
