SOME OF THE REASONS YOU SHOULD STOP TALKING BAD ABOUT YOUR PARTNER

People talking trash about their partners have become the order of the day in many relationships and even marriages. Husbands and wives trash talk each other and say demeaning things about each other.
Saying trash about your partner does more harm than good to your relationship, and below are some of the effects.
1. YOU’D KILL THE COMMUNICATION
Love and bitterness can’t live together; one has to give way for the other. When you talk bad about your partner, it’s a product of bitterness, and there’s no way the communication in that marriage/relationship will be smooth when you have given bitterness a chance to creep in.
2. YOU NEVER KNOW THE MIND OF PEOPLE
I find it amazing when people go around saying trash about their wives/husbands/partners; they go around saying harsh things to people about their partners. Those words might come back to haunt you because some of those people will use it against you. Some private stuff should be left for you and your partner, and it will best be settled that way. But when you make your relationship a topic for discussion, then you are going the wrong way.
3. IT HAS A DETRIMENTAL EFFECT
You can’t talk trash about your partner and expect to have a beautiful relationship; it’ll definitely hurt that person and damage the relationship as well. For every trash you say about your partner, your relationship suffers, in one way or the other.
4. YOU CAN NEVER TAKE YOUR WORDS
One needs to be careful with the words they say; there’s no word you say that you can actually take back. This is why wisdom is actually very important in handling your relationship issues; be careful of what you say, because words are powerful and they can never be taken back.
5. NEGATIVE CAN NEVER LEAD TO POSITIVE
Negative can never lead to positive; neither can two wrongs make it right. Whether you are right about an issue going on with your partner, once you give in to the temptation of saying bad things about your partner, your relationship will suffer.
6. IT’S A SIGN OF DISRESPECT AND IMMATURITY
Whether you are right or wrong, the moment you start talking trash about your partner, it only shows how disrespectful and immature you are.
7. YOU GIVE PEOPLE THE CHANCE TO SAY TRASH ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP
Unknown to many people who have the habit of saying trash about their partners, they also give other people the leeway to do same thing. How much can you say you value your relationship when you let your friends, neighbours and colleagues say trash about your marriage?
It’s not a matter of who’s  right and who’s wrong, or who’s the hurt/aggrieved partner. When you talk trash about your marriage/relationship, you cause more damage to that relationship.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Freedom: The One Thing Gaddafi Could Not Give — And the One Thing No Government Can Take Away

For years, the collapse of Libya under Muammar Gaddafi puzzled many observers across Africa and the world. How could a country with high living standards, generous state programs, and a strong economy turn so swiftly against a leader who appeared to have delivered materially for his people? This question is not just about Libya. It speaks to a deeper truth about governance, legitimacy, and the limits of developmental authoritarianism. It speaks to Africa’s political future. And it speaks directly to the crossroads at which Kenya now finds itself. --- The Libyan Paradox: Prosperity Without Liberty Before the 2011 uprising, Libya’s economic and social indicators were strikingly strong for the region. Gaddafi’s Libya boasted: Free education Free healthcare Subsidized housing Cheap fuel High employment An extensive welfare system These were not myths. The United Nations Human Development Index (HDI) of 2010 ranked Libya 53rd in the world and first in Africa. Even today, that ranking stands...
