Lack of Money Will Ruin Marriages-Reno Omokri

The former Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has deposed that lack of money in a family has the potential to ruin marriages.
In an Instagram post, Omokri who once  hosted a nondenominational Christian TV show-transformation with Reno Omokri-stated that with money, a non loving marriage could be endured.
However he affirmed that love is the greatest gift of all even though money answers all things.

'Sadly, lack of money will ruin marriages faster than lack of love. With money, you can endure a marriage that is not loving. Without money, it is hard to endure a marriage, even if there is love. Love is the greatest gift of all, however, money answers all things. So make money. And if your money is not making money, then you don’t know the value of money. Don’t put yourself to work. Put your money to work. Invest in ventures that will produce money. Invest your seed and spend your harvest. Treat money like a tree. Eat the fruit, not the tree'.

Mmmmm! Do you agree with this? What's your take on Money, Love and Marriage?

Marital Love as a Cohesive Force

The picture of an old man holding his wife so dearly in a metro cut my interest. And it is not strange to see couples living like strangers in and outside their homes. But this is wrong. Marital love is like two unlike poles of a bar magnet. Even though they are unlike yet they attract each other. This is the irony of live.
Sometimes the one you admire refuses to appreciate your efforts, well that's like poles that cannot attract each other.
In my early days in the high school when the feelings of love were coming in, I was so much in love with Deborah who's every man's dream of friendship. I expressed my intention to make her my girlfriend in many ways-buying gifts, launch and other efforts to win her attention. I remember being mocked by her friends because of my affectionate gestures to Deborah. Yet the more I tried, the more I fail.
Similarly, Before I settle for my wife, I had this beautiful lady I had loved so much. Actually she pretended to love my back but her actions towards me were more hurtful than the love. The More I tried to please her, the more hurt I experience. To a point I asked myself does love really hurt like this? When the relationship finally ended, my pains continued until I found Aijay.

A couple in a metro holding hands together

Most of us that have the experience know how hurtful it is. It is so bad that the harder you fight to win 'your intending love' the more you are being rejected by the one you love.

This experience of loving someone who doesn't love you back to back is like the experience of hugging a cactus tree. The tree is beautiful and admirable with thorns. The more you hug it the more you get Hurt.
We all love and want to be loved back in our unique ways. For you to experience the sweetness of your love, you must fall in love with someone that loves you and appreciates and respects your love and feeling otherwise the more you try to love someone who doesn't love you, the more you hurt your good feelings. But the moment you found the one that loves you, you experience the wholesomeness and beauty of Love. Marital Love is More of a cohesive than a repulsive force.

BEYONCE PAYS TRIBUTE TO FORMER SOUTH AFRICA'S PRESIDENT

American singer and songwriter Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has paid a tribute to the former South African President Nelson Mandela.
In her tribute which was published in Sowetan, Beyonce recalls the impactful moments together with Mandela.
She is one of the artists that will honour the Global Citizen Festival to celebrate Nelson Mandela's 100th birthday day.
Hereafter is her tribute to Mandela.

Dear Madiba,
I first met you in 2004 for the 46664 AIDS Benefit Concert in Cape Town, and the impact you have had on my life resonates with me today and every day. Your kindness and gratitude for every experience, and your ability to forgive are lessons I have learned and will pass on to my three children. My entire family holds you in high regard.

It is an honor for me to travel to South Africa this week in celebration of you and your efforts to right so many wrongs. You were a strategic warrior, a bold activist, and charismatic and well-loved leader. Your vision for dignity, for human rights, for peace and a South Africa free of racism and apartheid, allows us all to turn dreams into reality.

I remember taking that walk with you back to the prison on Robben Island where you spent 18 of those imprisoned 27 years. I recall your measured but focused steps in as you recounted the stories of the struggles, the sacrifices and your resilience. You smiled as you talked to a crowd of artists and their guests, including my mother, who first told my sister and me about the great Nelson Mandela. In that moment I truly understood your heart and humility.

You made it possible for so many people like me to reject impossibilities and understand our capabilities in making lasting change in the world. The smallest efforts could change the trajectory for so many living in extreme poverty, facing injustices, the indecency of racism and fighting for their rights as humans.

As we celebrate the Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100, honoring your centennial year, I promise you that we have made your dreams our own.

She vows to cherish each moment spent together and promised to use the lessons she learnt From him as a force.

'Your work and your sacrifices were not in  vain. I will cherish every moment shared in your presence and use the lessons learned from you as fuel to stir positive ideas and solutions.'

PREMARITAL FUNDAMENTALS-A comprehensible guide to a formidable marital foundation

Premarital Fundamentals excerpt

To build and maintain a solid foundation for marital relationships requires that the partners develop BASIC UNDERSTANDING about each other’s life style, character, likes, hobbies, weakness, strength, and basic understanding about so many other things. And that is what purpose driven courtship does. These days, courtship is taken as a time to engage in marathon sex, enjoy and merry. Premarital sex is completely against the rule of ideal courtship. Courtship is a time to get to know each other a little bit more and find out if you guys are compatible enough to make a harmonious relationship. The partners need the basic understanding that they are not perfect beings so they must to create rooms for surprises in form of disappointments. Yes, disappointment. I liken this to a shock absorber built in a car. The impacts of a car passing through pot holes with its shock absorber are minimal. So preparing for surprises minimizes shocks when the other person behaves as least as expected. This will enable you to withstand any shock and prepare you on how best to handle such. Foundation for marital relationship requires that the partners have the basic understanding that marriage is not a bed of roses, it is not always smooth and sometimes it could be rough. Couples may have romantic experience today and have a quarrelsome tomorrow. Some come into the institution hoping that ‘my man’ will provide me with all that my parents couldn’t provide for me. Well, that is unrealistic. Sometimes, a partner may remember a terrible experience and that could affect his or her moment or even romantic life. At such times, you don’t expect your marriage to be rosy, it is rather a time to understand and support.(an excerpt from our e-book-PREMARITAL FUNDAMENTALS BY Chisom UdoChukwu Anyanwu)
