BEING A MAN, WE NEED ENCOURAGEMENT TOO!



I post this to this desk of sisterhood with a heavy heart. As a man, it is like we were wired to receive bad news and as the adage would go, 'you have the stomach and muscles to handle it!'



As I write this down, since morning, I haven't received any message of appreciation from anyone. Rather, with these gadgets we have, the entry of a message is of a complaint, a demand, a threat, a blame, a reminder of an unpaid bill, eulogy, a dirge, someone in need, somebody in hospital, no sugar, no this and that......HHHEEEEEEEEY! 



Surely, the world is too heavy on us men!



Sisterhood fraternity, it is from the men's desk that once in a while, remember to appreciate us! By the time we retire to bed, we are as tired as Moses before appointing the 70 leaders.



I like this sisterhood platform, there are always people encouraging someone. Even if things are tough, an encouragement from another quota will encourage the downdrodden to push on! This platform just came in handy. When it was really needed and neccessary. TO ENCOURAGE!



At times when i can't stomach the incoming textx on my phone, i put it aside and come here to get encouraged. Discouragement kills! Could it be the reason why men leave earth earlier? All a man encounters on a day to day sprint in chasing how to solve the \"NO's\"!



Imagine a day full of:



No power



No vegetables



No fees



No food



No fuel



No insurance



No baby



No fertilizer



No transport/Fare



No...No....No...No....No...



You have not.....You have not....You have not...



Sisters, remember us when we are running this race....it has 



NO END!
