True love: How to know a true love?

How To Know It’s True Love?


Love

“True love is supposed to make you into a better person-uplift you.” ― Emily Giffin, Love the One You’re With

Very recently I got an email from a reader who asked me that two of her friends professed their love for her. She likes both of them but is confused about who loves her truly. My post today is dedicated to her.


I truly believe in the power of love. True Love. It can move mountains and it can stop tsunamis. Things that one never imagined he/she would ever do, they do it so naturally when in love. True love changes you.

                 “True love isn’t expressed in passionately whispered words an intimate kiss or a embrace; before two people are married, love is expressed in self-control, patience, even words left unsaid" ― Joshua Harris


Love

        Even now, after about 3 yrs of marriage, I meet my husband’s friends and they tell me ‘he is so changed. He is not the person we knew!’ and then they remark ‘the change is for the best!’ I have noticed my husband change, evolve and grow. Same with me. My family keeps pointing out the changes in me. And I am proud to say that I have learnt a lot from him. And now when my baby is born, both of us have again evolved. And Sanjay, he is like a completely new man! A person who once claimed (before the birth of his baby) that he might not have a ‘different’ string of attachment for his baby is now more than a doting father and often kisses her for making him experience fatherhood.

True love lets you grow. It is one quality that you should look for in your partner . Your lover should let you evolve. He should help you to develop. To move ahead. To achieve more. To attain more. To feel more.

One who supports you to take steps further towards your life’s ultimate aim is the one who truly loves you. He may not claim he would die if you left him but he would promise ‘if you are not there, I would make sure your dream is fulfilled’.

Go for matured love. One that does not bind you but instead liberates you . True love does not restrict you. It does not suffocate you. It lets you breathe.
True love lets you be you. And helps you to become a better human being.

Boko Haram lures recruits with N5,000, says Zulum

Our Reporter Borno State Governor, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, yesterday said Boko Haram fighters lure recruits with as low as N5,000. The governor also reveals how his government sustained the fight against insurgents in the state in the last two years. He made the revelations in his statewide broadcast to commemorate this year’s Democracy Day (June 12, 2021) and his second anniversary in office, stating that “of all Nigeria’s 36 states, none is faced with the level of Borno’s security and by extension, social and economic challenges. According to him: “From day one, we were faced with an acute humanitarian crisis, particularly in northern and some parts of the central senatorial zones. As such, we made it a policy that as governor, I assume the role of chief humanitarian officer for different reasons. “On one hand, it was our duty to deliver help to our fellow citizens that were either internally displaced or taking refuge in neighbouring countries. “On the other hand, there was ...

The transformation of UNIBEN’s campus

Ekehuan Campus of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) was neglected for many years by successive administrations in the institution. However, the story has changed as the campus has witnessed a transformation, reports IFUNANYA OSAKWE (UNIBEN).   The Ekehuan Campus of the University of Benin was the first campus of the institution in Edo State when it was founded in 1970. From the Ekehuan campus, it moved to Ugbowo Campus, which is the permanent site. As a result of this movement, the Ekehuan Campus, which houses the Mass Communication Department, Fine Art Department, Theatre Arts Department, Early Childhood Education Department and Public Administration Department suffered neglect for many years. The classrooms and hostels were not what they used to be. There were incessant protest over lack of light and water by students in Ekehuan campus. Often the protests were said to have achieved very little result as promises to enhance welfare were unfulfilled. On many occasions, students...

Edo Museum of West African Art

The Benin Kingdom is known for its arts, many of which are scattered in museums around the world. The Edo State government’s decision to establish the museum of West African art will further the state’s image, writes Robert Egbe   On Friday, November 13, Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki announced a post-COVID-19 recovery plan to strengthen the public sector. But perhaps the most interesting component of his proposal was the announcement of a new partnership that seeks to return Edo State to its competitive advantage many centuries ago, and establish the Edo Museum of West African Art (EMOWAA). It is a fact that the Benin kingdom was one of the most powerful and creative kingdoms in Africa, with its art and craftmanship so globally acknowledged and renowned that European explorers marvelled at the level of sophistication of the art and culture emanating from this kingdom. Very few would argue with the fact that at some point in its history, this great kingdom was regarded as th...
