TINA!
I was caught red-handed. I couldn’t lie to because there was no sign of such on me. Somehow, I saved myself.
Why have I been avoiding Tina? She is cool; she’s great and lovely to be with. I just met her two days ago when I arrived in Berlin. Yesterday, she informed me about going to the Sunday Open market near Bernauser Strasse U-Bahn to purchase a second-hand bicycle she will need until August when she will go back to the US. Then she asked me if I can escort her there. I made it clear to her that I need to work.
I thought she got it right. I never knew I was wrong until this morning when she came knocking on my door. Well, there she was at the dining table, eating her lunch. I knew she purposely waited there, and calmly. She told me she wants me to go to the market with her.
Let’s analyse this together; here is a woman we barely knew each other (we met two days ago) and she is taking on me so suddenly! The end of the tale is that I had no choice than to go with her. When she bought the bicycle (we got it for 30 Euros on second-hand), I was glad for her.
What do I mean by where we find happiness? Tina found happiness when someone helps her out. It’s been few days we are together now, and she is proving to me, day-by-day that she needs people to complete her happiness. Listen, if I have not fought and won the battle, I don’t think I will be free from Tina and be able to work, which is the major reason why I am here. She wants me to be everywhere with her!
Are you like Tina? Where do you find your happiness? Do you need anybody to define where you will find it?
Tina is different; I am different, and this is why I strongly believe that the best place to find happiness as individual must first of all be from YOU! Don’t wait until someone does any help for you before you can think your life is complete.
When your life is filled with happiness, it will transmit to those around you. l make people happy because my entire life is filled with happiness. I don’t need anyone to define it for me. There are moments you will need people but you mustn’t let it becomes a do-or-die affair.
Make it your goal today to find HAPPINESS first for you as individual, then allow the rest to follow.
Cheers!

TASTE OF HUNGER
SHADOW OF THE SUN
Our souls are a deep and complicated thing. I am sure you can remember when you were searching and hoping…for something more. Needing someone or something to help you feel. I am glad you are in her life…I pray you will be used mightily to share truth and love.
I John 4: 7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son[b] into the world that we might live through him. 10This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for[c] our sins. 11Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
I look forward to reading more about your friendship.
