Lame quotes

Am i the only one who thinks some motivational or supposed inspirational quotes are just so lame.I love motivational quotes but some of it do not have any other meaning than what you have seen.
Today,i will be writing out my thoughts or whatever, but below are some lame quotes;

1.You miss 100% of the things you don't take
What does that even mean.I didn't miss it, i just did not take it.It is the same thing as saying you miss the class you did not take,i didn't even take the class or the bus or whatever so how come i am now missing it.Don't search for deeper meaning because clearly there is none.

2.Whether you think you can or think you can't you are right:
As much as it wants to sound sane it is not.I think i can fly but i can't,i think i can drive a car but i can't.I never thought i would accomplish some things but here i am.It should be"whether you think you can or can't,give it a try".

3.People die if they are killed:
What was i expecting,that i kill you and you become born again;No,you are going to die.It is a law,when you are killed you should die....what does that even mean.Is that even a quote or some lame talk by a lame person who has made some other people lame with the idea that they know a quote and when asked the quote, they open their mouth to say 'people die when they are killed'.

4.Life is like a box of chocolate,you never know what you will get:
Brilliant!!!.do i need to remind you,you just said 'like a box of chocolate'...so definitely i know what i am getting;a chocolate.I just do not know the flavour. It should be "life is not a box of chocolate you may or may not know what you will get".

5.100% of divorce begins with marriage:
Okay,your point.There has to be a marriage before you call separation a divorce, else it is a break up.Who even came up with such dumb thing.

6.You have made your bed,lie on it:
Thank you,when i made the bed..i had one thing clear;to lie on it.I understand it means you have an issue,live in it ...because lying on it doesn't show any effort in trying to resolve whatever, so replace the 'lie on it with deal with it'.You have dug your grave now lie in it.Really grave has nothing to do with life and to think of it you cannot dig your grave,so if you realised you digged your grave,don't lie it,just deal with the problem.

7.You will have to kiss a lot of frogs to meet your prince:
In other words,guys are the frogs.That is by the way but you do not need to kiss a lot of guys to meet the ONE.How are you comfortable knowing you are a serial frog kisser.So,for the guys,"you will have to kiss a lot of toads to meet your princess" since we are now doing 'interanimal' marriage.

8.You will find love when you stop looking for one:
Burst your bubble,you won't.Love is not manna,it won't fall from heaven.

9.Live everyday like it is your last:
We have grown with this quote,it has been passed on from generation to generation.I just do not understand the misery the person who came up with this went through.Come on,you can't live each day as if it is your last.The reason you are doing most things now is because of the future you are picturing.I don't even know how to explain but do everything of value to you because today may not be your last and you still have tomorrow to eat,to go to school, to pay that bill,to live your life etc.Make the best out of each day is better than living each day like it is your last.

10.There is no such thing as being busy,if you want something you will make time for it:
It wants to sound true in some cases but have you seen people who have a lot of jobs and are barely earning enough to pay bills but they love their family and really wants to make time for them but can't??. So you are suggesting i make time for them and we die of hunger and please shut the priorities thoughts in your mind,it doesn't make any sense right now.There is something as being busy.

11.People don't care how much we know until they know how much we care:
Intriguing,in which part of the world does this happen.I don't know if some quotes are fading with time but people definitely are not interested if you care about them, provided you give them information that can help them,whether good or bad.

12.Do what you love:
Who does that.We do things that will add value to us whether we love or hate it.

My Identity Crisis

  Oh, hello This is uum kind of awkward. You would think after doing this for so many years, I would be so courageous and confident to stand before a crowd. It's almost like every event I'm invited for,is a chance to stand on the stage again for the very first time.  Somehow I believe that's the beauty of it all, the nervousness, excitement, the adrenaline spike that rushes through my body helping me prepare so I don't get so comfortable in my God-given abilities and slip up. Well, as some of you may know My name is Emediong Francis Udoudoh and I wear many hats but for this event, I choose to wear my green public speaking hat. Can I have a seat please? I hope that's fine yea, okay I think I would be more comfortable if I assume the friendly kind of vibe position. Thank you very much. So, as I was saying my self and my green hat we want to talk you today about identity. As many of you may know, I am the founder of Dimensionsofgold conglomerate but what you don't ...

Dear Men

Dear men, Scratch that . Dear society, you know; never mind. I keep saying I want to have just boys because I want to teach them that being a guy isn't so much of a big deal,we all got blood running through our veins. When I listen to some guys speak it gets me annoyed,confused and a whole rush of different emotions I can't put into words. A woman speaks up for herself and she is labeled aggressive. Read the reason I left Feminism A woman tells you this is what she can put up with and y'all say she got an attitude that would lead her no where.  Well, I don't want to go no where with you and that mentality. When a guy does any of this some how the word personality appears in the dictionary and everyone goes on and on saying thats just his personality,"Its a masculine thing". Well, you are damn right it's a feminine thing that i won't put up with any thing you believe a woman should put up with simply because she is a woman and if it takes m...

On Being A Feminist

The other day I was privileged to attend an event, it wasn't necessarily a church program but it centered around Christianity and women. So of course the guest speakers would be women but one was particularly very interesting. This lady  went on and on about how Christian women should act, which I agreed for the most part and learnt new  things. However, she took me aback with a particular statement she made "you can't be a Christian and a feminist". She went ahead to attempt to back up her claim by saying "feminism is a cult group". At this point the only thing I could utter was Hmmm, wahala dey o. I immediately had to google the meaning of feminism and right after I searched for misandry. I know there has been a lot of attack on people who identify as a feminists but this was the first time I heard "...you can't be both a Christian and a feminist". I had a lot of questions as you might have guessed. I honestly just wanted to understand where ...
