Youth And Fashion

Published

on

Fashion means different things to different people. For me, fashion is every one’s personal style. Your style is your fashion, your style is you. In the real sense, fashion is a form of art. As a fashion conscious person, you have to be artistic and for you to be artistic you must be creative. Unfortunately, the youth have turned fashion into something really crazy and mind blowing. What our youth wear to the street is most times abominable to the eyes. These days, fashion is no longer what it use to be back in the 1960’s to 80’s when fashion was respected. The youth have abused fashion so much so that some responsible and mature people now see fashion as evil, they have lost interest in fashion because they see fashion as haven lost its real value and purpose. For instance, ‘Sagging’ was introduced by the foreign music stars, it went viral straight into the streets, now the dawn of sagging is driving the youths crazy both male and female, even girls now walk the streets with their back and their inner wear showing. Fashion was meant to show ones creativity, how well you can make something out of nothing up to the point it becomes a regular thing. people who are in charge of designing what we wear, did not intend to have people walk the streets half naked, all they do is to make sure we have clothes to put on our body, when these fashion experts are done with their work, the youth buy this good work of art,  take it home and re-design them in  manners that  suite their desire, which do not look good most times to the eyes of many. Ofcourse they careless about what anyone would say about their look and, if any cares to ask, they quickly say it is the trendy. Another case is the one of Crazy Jean, it’s the type of jean trouser that they cut open a little in front of the trouser, right now most of that little opening have turned into real tear, very long and open. Youth go to the market, buy this crazy jean, take it home, sit down and tear the jean very open. If you take a trip to our high institutionsthere you will see the real craziness of fashion. What do you expect? Is not that the  vogue? Regrettably,some of them come from decent homes, most of the clothes they wear in the school, they can’t wear it at home, even though others see their crazy dressing as the norm because of the type of home they come from.
In all, fashion is creativity and art that produces beauty. Fashion is to be cherished and appreciated by everyone because it helps to bring out the good in us, looking good is a good business. People have invested a lot to bring fashion this far, take example of Hermes, since 1837, Louis Vuitton 1854, Chanel 1909, Prada 1913 and so on, all these fashion designers they are all still in operation till now, all working hard to make us look good. If you dress well it gives you confidence, it makes you feel good about yourselves. It pays to dress decent because you are addressed the way you dress.

The Wise Woman

Published

The wise woman builds her home. Mothers are supposed to live exemplary lives. The roles of mothers in the building of the modern Christian home cannot be overemphasized.
The function of the mother is to help the man build the home. She is a helper. A helper to the husband when the man is not doing well. It is important for the wise woman to assist when the man is not able to meet up with the items needed in the home.
A wise woman needs to reference God first and then the husband. Also the wise woman should respect her husband.
Caring for her own children as well as others is very crucial.
Do not despise children from other mothers. Discipline the child who is going the wrong way.
Ensure family bonding, show love and don’t discriminate. Connection with children is very important, especially the females. Find out who is her friend. Also find out the kind of lives they live. Caution, counsel and guide so that they make good partners.
Teaching children the dos and donts should start from birth. Inculcate the word of God in them so that when they grow, will not depart from it.
From the Scripture, some women influenced their families positively. Virgin Mary influenced the world, she never destroyed herself hence she gave birth to Jesus Christ.
Elizabeth, despite her age, God blessed her as she waited patiently.
A wise should curb favouritism in the family and love children equally. Whether a child is your biological child or not, it is necessary to show love equally. Reprimanding the children should be the function of both man and wife.

A woman needs
man that is honest,  trustworthy,  nice,  loving and financially stable.
There are no two ways about finance in marriage. No matter the level of love, if there is no reasonable finance,  it is always difficult to manage the home.
Referring to the Biblical belief in Genesis 3: “Your desire  shall be unto you…….. “
What this means is that whatever the woman desires in life shall be provided as far as she performs her role in her home. There are many things  the woman expects her husband to take care of.
A woman wants a husband that is not lazy,  at least helping to do one or two things when he is at home.
A man that is educated and intelligent so that they will transfer such traits to their children.
Knowing that there are traits that her husband has,  traits of taking care of people,  giving freely to people and caring for her family. She expects him to exhibit them.
A woman wants to love a husband that has family interest at heart. A man that spends time with his family,  remembering his family even as he is away from home.
No matter where he finds himself, he is not destracted by external influence. He returns home to his loved ones.
A woman should not antagonise her husband because of one error or the other. No matter the level of offence he may have committed, you still show some love.
According to the Scripture, it is with wisdom that a woman builds her home. As far as he rreturns home, you accept him as your own.
It is not as if the woman will not monitor her husband, but to certain limit.  Don’t be a monitoring spirit.  Don’t allow anything to take your joy.
Don’t loose trust in your husband. The idea of checking your husband’s phone should be discouraged. The more you check your husband and his phone, the more you loose your joy.
You can show some form of jealousy, but to an extent. Cooperation, respect and being honoured from time to time is what the woman desires.
The home should not be a battle ground for a woman and man.  A woman should be able to ask herself if the check on her husband will pay her any good.
Draw a line to a point where you checkmate your husband’s activities.
A woman wants a man that will love her and telling her you love her will be all she desires.
