New Year Resolution

I simply love it when at the end of November people begin to take stock of their lives. They are able to identify the areas where they lacked and then on 31st night, pray asking God to assist them overcome those burdensome areas.
The women who are unmarried will pray for men to walk into their lives. They will ask for well to do men who can afford to give them a Range Rover Evogue. They will ask for men who would not mind keeping them as concubine or 2nd and 3rd wives. They will ask to be housewives to these men. Men who will take them Shopping in Dubai and attend Samini or Shattawale concerts with them. They will dance to the tunes “where my baby dey” and “megye wo boy”. They forget there is something about them that drives the men away. Either it is personal hygiene or they simply cannot cook jollof.
The second set of women will ask for fruit of the womb. Babies. They will ask that whoever impregnates them does not matter. Even if they do not accept the pregnancy, on their own they are willing to take care of that child. Some of these women forget that The children in their wombs have been dropped like coconuts. Now they Cry at the beginning of each new year bothering The Creator.
The third category of women pray asking to be successful in their endeavors especially academically. They rely on God or their faith to guide them.
Now the men. Men will always be like he goats. Sleeping with anything curvaceous. They will not pray for a suitable woman to marry. Neither will they pray for anything. They will be in church stealing looks at heaped boobs and inflated hips. They will make eye contact and pray (then) that she falls for them. It is called ‘natural mystic’ or ‘chemistry’.
Some of the men will also pray against the spirit of womanizing. They are no longer able to combine feeding their wives and kids with feeding, clothing and providing for their concubines and families too. They pray asking for help to get rid of the excess baggage.
Others will pray seeking help in their chilling sprees. They simply enjoy life too much to the detriment of their families. If you sit by them in church on 31st night, their breathe can cause you to be in a charismatic stupor throughout the night (alcoholic fumes).
It is a market.
The auctioneer is the pastor. He resolved last year and has been praying through out this year to make enough to buy that SUV so that under the guise of the holy spirit he can give his old car to his girlfriend. (Holy spirit told him to do so.)
This year the prayer contention will be between the politicians and armed robbers. Both would be praying for protection as they loot. They would pray they are not caught. They would pray that if and if they are caught, may the Holy Spirit blind their captors and assuage the heart of the judges (with goats, guinea fowls, yam, sweet damsels) for them to be set free.
I am not making any resolution. I am only praying to God to continue to send people my way as I travel on this weight loss journey. But I will Speak Out against anything not good for humanity.
You need to be pragmatic. Look at yourself in the mirror. Resolution or not will you raise your leg or SPEAK OUT?
