Today has been very hectic for me. I got to the office very early, trying to tidy up my file cabinet and at the same time, trying to locate a document.

During lunch, I decided to give myself a treat. Guess where I went to? I went to a place called AFRICAN CUISINE, there, you can find different kind of African delicacies. If you a Nigerian or from Africa, you will understand what I mean. We Africans, love good foods, when I say good foods, I really mean it.

Enough of food talks for now, let’s get down to the business of the day.
As I was having my lunch, I noticed a show was going on, on TV.
The program was all about HIV awareness talk show

The presenter of the show asked a very difficult and complicating question.

The question goes like this, she said, “what will you do if you find out that your spouse is HIV positive? What will be your reaction. When she asked this question, the audience suddenly became quiet; you could hear the sound of a pin if dropped at that moment. Surprisingly, no one answered, it was so awkward and embarrassing, so they had to take some time off for advert, before continuing the show..

Before they came back on Air, I had already left, because my lunch break was over. On getting to the office, I keep asking my self, what will one do, if one finds his or her self in such ugly situation? Honestly, I couldn't find an answer to that question. So I decided to throw it out to readers of my blog out there.

So now readers, over to you, The big question is: What Will you do if you find out that your spouse is HIV positive? Please give me your honest response.

Welcome to the month of April 2008. A month of possibilites, so I termed it. I wish you the very best this month.

Find below a story, that will teach what Life is all about.

Long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.

Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible. He came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying.

Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying, and I only need a very small area to bury myself."

The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health, time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.

Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition.
Life is definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time. You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts.

Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile , Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!
