            Can I ask you some questions, Who do you relate with? Who is your friend? What made you think that person was right to be your friend? Do you have anything in common?
            Among these questions, the main question here is, what is your point of convergence?, what makes you attracted to people. That's what we're going to talk about today.
    What is point of convergence?
            Point of convergence is what makes you and people around you come together. In other words it means what makes you come together and unite in a common interest or focus with other people.
    Who is a friend?
            A friend is someone you like very much and like to spend time with.
                                                                                                            -LONGMAN DICTIONARY
            Point of convergence is that force that pulls you and others to a common spot of interaction. This involves common interests, values, beliefs and other things that promote bonding among a group of people.
            Let us just round the definition up as a person you like is called your friend. First and fur-most, I want us to understand the fact that friendship is by choice and not by force.
            Now, back to point of convergence I mentioned; point of convergence is what makes you and people around you come together. Is it their attitude, character, personality, background, dressing and so on. Let us say, you are a God-fearing, quiet type of person and lately you have noticed that a particular person has been trying to get close to you and that person has attributes of being rude, sassy, fierce, mischievous and so on. If you probably got close to the person, may I ask "What was your point of convergence?"
            Just as I stated earlier, friendship is by choice and not by force. People keep missing this point and that is why they mix with people they are not meant to mix with. I am not saying that you cannot talk with them, there is nothing wrong with that;but an hi, hello and some greetings is enough. The person you relate with really matters. A popular adage says "Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are". Who is your friend and what image is that person portraying about you.
            I will also advice us to have a value system. If you don't have any create one. Now, what does a value system help you to do? A value system helps you to know the kind of characteristics you want to find in a friend. It helps you to sieve out those you think qualify and those you think do not align with your value system.
            With these words of mine, I hope that we will know our point of convergence with people and how to manage it well.

BLOG UPDATE

  Hey guys, I’m back and glory be to God. For today, I will not be speaking on anything in particular. Starting my blog, I did not have a specific field of interest to discuss with my audience but as time went by, I observed that many people of my age have interest in Information Communication Technology (ICT) but does not have the proper training or guidance to help them translate their desire into reality. This inspired me to be of help to people of my age, the elderly and the young to assist them in bringing their hopes and dreams alive; and on this note, I’m going to make this blog an ICT and technological inclined blog. Thank you.                 Please share your ideas in the comment section on what area of ICT your interest lies. This is going to be our first tech based interaction and it is going to form the essential core of engagement on this platform going forward. First, in my own perspective...

BENEFITS OF GARLIC

There are various benefits of garlic, which some will be listed here: 1. Boost immunity:  In test tubes,  garlic  appears to kill cancer cells, and studies involving people show some of the same outcomes. According to the Iowa Women’s Health Study, involving 41,000 middle-aged women, those who routinely ate garlic, fruits and vegetables had a 35 percent lower colon cancer risk. Benefits came from raw and cooked garlic – not supplements. 2. Work as an anti-inflammatory:  Research  has shown that garlic oil works as an anti-inflammatory. So, if you have sore and inflamed joints or muscles, rub them with the oil. 3.

According to the vocapture dictionary, an habit is an action performed repeatedly and automatically usually without awareness. I would say that an habit is an action that is cultivate gradually. As human beings, we can discern from what is right and wrong. With this ability to discern, we choose to cultivate either good or bad habits. The cultivation of these habits will determine if the products will ad to your life positively or negatively and this is where our inner man comes to play and directs our actions. It is left to us to pick an action between what is wrong and what is right. The cultivation of bad habits often leads to grevious consequences. I want to point out something here; the cultivation of bad habit is easy but turning a new leaf is going to be difficult and if not careful, it could develop into an addiction> In some cases, their addiction leaves a stigma in their lives forever. To all those ...
