Comparing your wife and your side chick



It is easy for you to see FAULTS in your Wife, and see that Lady at the office as PERFECT
You live with your wife, you wake up beside her everyday, you see her without makeup, you see her when she's tired, when she's in need of a bath, you see her without her wig and mascara.
You don't live with that lady you are now lusting after and wishing was your wife, you don't wake up beside her.
You see her when she's already applied make up, you see her only when she's had a bath, with her wig, brazilian weavon and mascara.
Your wife lives with you, it's easy to see why you feel like you need a breath of fresh air, you know her every flaws, her weaknesses, you see her CONTENT daily, while all you see about that lady is her CONTAINER
Your wife cannot PRETEND for you, she has no reason to, that lady has no reason to be REAL to you, she will only be COURTEOUS and KIND to you, but don't let that fool you.
That lady you are comparing with your wife has her own imperfections and flaws, she has attitude issues too, she gets angry too, but you won't see all this about her.
Don't begin to wish you were married to that younger lady, she's what? 22? 25?
Your wife is 35? 40+?
She's been to the labor room, her vagina can't be the same as before, maybe she's had a CS or two, let's not forget all the worship sessions and night vigils you conducted down there, shouting "give it to me, I paid for it"?,
Those stretch marks you detest are her scars from the pregnancies that made you a father.
You are complaining, your wife's breasts have sagged, but who pressed them? Was it us? Was it not you?
You are now eyeing a young lady that her chest Is firm, you forget that if she were subjected to the same conditions your wife has been through in your hands every night in the bedroom for 10 years, she'd look like your wife?
Respect that Woman who has stood by your side.
She has struggled with you,
She has taken in and given you kids,
She has loved you, emotionally and sexually,
She has hustled with you.
She's the wife of your YOUTH.
Love her with all her flaws
Love her through the changes you see.
Love those stretch marks.
Kiss that not so flat tommy
She's the wife of your YOUTH.
Malachi 2:15 "Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth."

It was the first of its kind in a long while and one that the students would live to remember for a long time to come.

The events marking the celebration, due to some logistics, took place on 22nd day of October, 2021 at the school hall. The JDPC Issele-Uku Diocese team was led by the director, Rev. Fr.

With the hall set, the students numbering about 120 settled down with their teachers with great expectation from the visitors. Without wasting any time, the director, Fr. JohnBosco led the opening prayer, after which he introduced his team and the organization to the school. He also set the ball rolling by explaining the reason for the gathering. Having done that, he invited Mr. Frank Agu Eze for the first presentation.

In his presentation titled, digital generation, our generation, Mr. Frank highlighted the benefits of digital technology such as learning and earning opportunities, reading of books and online news and the interconnectedness of people in far and near places. In the same vein, the downsides of digitalization were stressed such as crime, terrorism, privacy concerns, pornography, and job insecurity and so on. He therefore encouraged the participants to channel their energies and potentials to the advantages inherent in digital technology as opposed to the disadvantages. He concluded the first session with the point that digital equality can only be achieved if girls and young women are included in the picture.

The second presentation which was facilitated by Miss Esther Amaka Akawe was on HIV prevention, care and support and emphasis was laid on the causes of HIV such as pre-marital or extra-marital sex, sharing of unsterilized sharp objects and instruments. She noted that HIV has no known cure but can be managed if detected early and the patient adheres to treatment. However the children were admonished to abstain from pre-marital sex and any practice or act that can expose them to contract HIV/AIDS.

The third and final presentation was by Mr. Usiwo Emmanuel Ubogu. In the presentation titled, sexuality education and gender based violence (GBV), Mr. Usiwo x-rayed the differences between sex and gender and between the myths and facts of sexuality education. He also enlightened the Children on the different forms of gender based violence (GBV) such as sexual, physical and psychosocial violence. He encouraged the children to be bold and confident at every point in time to enable them resist any form of gender based violence and/or report to their superiors and to appropriate authorities whenever they sense danger around them.

The highlight of the event was class based quiz competition on the various presentations of the day. Two persons were selected through a transparent elimination process to compete against each other. All the children were given equal opportunities as the participants were made to pick a number and to answer the already set question assigned to the picked number. At the end of the completion, six winners emerged, one from each class. Each of the winners received the big sized Oxford Advanced Leaner’s Dictionary (10th Edition) and a Casio 3-Display scientific calculator.
