Hmm.....
STAND ALONE NARRATIVE
LIFE BEGINS AT 47
I will be 47 this year, I never been married and never had kids!
We are intentional about life. God first!
I will be 47 this year, I never been married and never had kids!
We are intentional about life. God first!
Now we know what we want in any relationship!!!
I have the whole remaining part of my life to be married as I get married this year! I praise God always that I did not jump into it before now, when the pressure was high!
Moreover my mother had me at over 50 and I am the most intelligent, beautiful and blessed of her children! I look late 20s because man stress makes you old if you make the wrong decision in marriage, Not just for ladies, but guys as well; woman stress can make you look worn out.
Hmmmm, having a child at that age is a big risk so please make sure you check in frequently with your Doctor if it happens for you..... I see that generalized your assumptions but it is not only man or woman stress that ages one.. Some aging is genetical my dear...
All the best
Good looking out to you
ReplyDeleteHmmm....years ago, I would have 'yimu' at you but you know what? As strange as it may sound YOU ARE VERY RIGHT.
DeleteIf you are a lady and desires so deeply to be married so bad that you are not enjoying the beauty of singlehood, chances are, you will be stressed out, become gwegwegwe, sad and worn-out with all the spent effort at doing everything possible to get married and have children. You would have subjected yourself to all sorts in relationships to win the ring, spent money you would have used to pamper yourself and go on adventures on religion and intense religious exercises like fasting on end, Virgils and the likes.
But when you are intentional like this poster, God becomes your friend and you simply enjoy living with a heart filled with contentment and confidence that when the right time comes, you will easily enjoy marriage and motherhood too. And don't forget that there is more than one way of being a mother; natural conception, IVF, surrogacy and adoption.
So, no need for the hurry.
My love saphire is back, I've missed u
Delete*paprika*
Welcome back Sapphire I miss you and your wisdom ❤️
DeleteSapphire is back..welcome back.
DeleteSorry, I don't get the rationale behind this your post. Congratulations to you on your marriage, but for me and my future kids, I wouldn't pray they get married that late
ReplyDelete*Larry was here*
Dear poster …
DeleteOkay
Congratulations
Push up (original)
I don't even understand the post. She comes across as grateful but also condescending.
DeleteCongratulations 🎊.
DeleteMay God bless and increase your home in every Good thing.
Most can't stand the pressure before getting to meet the right one. So it's okay if most don't agree with you.
Jumping into marriage is not good at all.
DeletePoster, congrats. What God can't do does not exist.
When husband come, marry. Don't kee yourself
What are we supposed to do with this chronicle? Lmao. That it’s working for you does not mean it will work for everybody madam.
ReplyDeleteSome of you come here to deceive others under the guise of being woke.
Sluttychic.
Moral of this your story is what exactly?...in my opinion people should get married at any age they are ready and found the right man/woman. They are people that got married early and are still looking young,is not every married man/woman that they partner are stressing, congratulations to you on your wedding!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I don't know why people think the way life happened to them is the way it should for everyone. They begin to comfort themselves with talks or thoughts that it's because 'it took this long, that's why it's this good '
DeleteNa God hand everything dey las las. You marry early or late, Sha pray 🙏 for God's mercies. Life is UNPREDICTABLE!
Thank you! I am in my 30's and single but I wished I got married much early..people should get married at any age they are ready..
DeleteOmg Saphiree where have you been,you don't know how much I love your comments,they keep me going and giving me hope,just one day I wil find love,love always
DeleteDon't justify your decision but as Stella said there are risk to child bearing but do you know that when you are 67yrs your son or daughter may just be going into university.school run at old age 😀😃😃and also waiting to old age doesn't guarantee successful marriage and all the best
ReplyDeleteCongrats
ReplyDeleteNB: you ain't your mom.
You can be euphoric without putting others who got hitched early down by attributing looks to "man stress"
This post is sent so that people should be marrying late or what?
ReplyDeleteYour mother married late and gave birth at 50, and now you marrying at 45. Don't you see a generational curses or perttern forming already? And hence the need to embark on serious prayer
Lol leave her to be sounding cool
DeleteI agree. There seems to be a pattern here. She needs to break it with prayers
DeleteAssistant Jesus, I too know is your problem. Where you there when they were cursed? It's her decision so respect it. Read, comprehend and don't rush to comment.
DeleteI really didn't get the point of this chronicle. Is she lamenting or celebrating? Whatever it is. There's no time frame to life. We came with nothing, we leave with nothing. Pick a reason to be happy everyday.
ReplyDeleteBia Aunty MaiCoronicle no allow me take out election stress on top of you faa... Anyways congratulations to you and your partner
ReplyDelete🤣🤣, kai this is funny 🤣
DeleteYour choice dear. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteBig congrats, a friend i met during our marriage class got married at 47 and took in five months after that. I was 10 years younger than her and three years after I'm still without a child. God can come through for anyone whenever he wishes
ReplyDeleteNot everyone will marry early, some will marry late, some will never marry. That's what makes it life.
ReplyDeleteI'm in my early 30s not yet married, if I were to choose I will definitely have done it in my late 20s. (26- 29). Cos I was most ready mentally, emotionally and even financially.
But I didn't meet the right person then, that doesn't mean I will say early marriage is bad. Hmmm, it was my choice not to go ahead with my ex-fiance o if not I will be in deep regret now.
What we should say rather is sometimes we meet the right person a little late, not every one will be ready in their 20s, not everyone will get a committed partner.
When you meet someone who is ready to take that life long journey with you no matter what comes, and you are also willing and ready for the person, it's a blessing.
Marriage isn't happening because one party isn't willing- this is the truth. 90% of relationships seldom make it.
Poster, congratulations. Best wishes.
ReplyDeleteEach chronicle is educative and an opportunity for all including the Poster to learn.
Stella never said a chronicle must be sorrow laden or human cursing or joyful to qualify for publication. Or did you, Stella?
Lolll, I think people come ready to hash or bash and seeing there was nothing to feast on, it triggered them.🤣
DeletePeople, sometimes just read and learn
Dasall.
Poster congratulations, I wish you the very best.
I have given you a big round of applause Poster. Can I move on to my activities?
ReplyDeleteposter it seems to me that you are comfortable with how things played out in your life. That your mum gave birth to you when she was 50 years plus do not think that was why you are intelligent more than her other children. I wish i got married when i was 20 and have all my kids already but now but life happens which i am not proud of.
ReplyDeletei pray every day that God will have mercy on me and grant me my heart's desire even if this life is what you prefer goodluck but i for once never wanted what i am getting.
Hiaaaanest ooh.... there's nothing i won't read here. Late marriage is every girl's nightmare. I break the curse of late marriage upon you and your generation.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I know having kids and all will be easy. ( Because no be by age, nah God dey give children)
ReplyDeleteThe most important thing is to be married when you are ready.
I'm glad you are all the ..ally ready.
God bless your union
And if things seems not to be going in marriage as you assumed, I trust your maturity to help you make the right decisions.
Cos marriage has its surprises and until you live with someone in holy matrimony, you can never say.
Always remember you will be living with someone with completely different background, personality, ideas, interest et al. So, seek godly counsel when the need arises.
Congratulations again.
Expecting your Omugwo chronicles after nine months
Expecting Wedding Night Brouhaha.....Yes! All the best to you poster and wishing you a blissful marriage.
DeleteWhat lesson should we learn from this chronicle?
ReplyDeleteYou don't really have to learn anything,read and keep moving
DeleteBe thankful and joyful in circumstances.
DeleteDon't be to much in a hurry ,
The list continues...
Lol
No bi wetin you want, naim anoda woman want.
DeleteLife na one by each.
Everibodi get him own time.
Na wen you close at work som pipu dey resume.
Australia dey see new year before Nigeria.
Today chronicle na one of joy, expectations of more blessings, etc.
And may Almighty God grant us here our goodly desires.
Don't stress yourself about marriage, be focus and when it comes, marry. Don't rush it.
DeleteBvs, make una follow her thank God not bash her indirectly.
Poster congratulations, enjoy your life
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you, congratulations. May your marriage be fruitful in Jesus Name.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your marriage
ReplyDeleteWho told you , you look late 20s?
ReplyDeleteLol, nothing wrong with looking your age though. Aging is a natural part of every living thing. Good luck with all you have going on for you though.
Loll she said she looks late 20s o. Who we be to argue that. I’ve been laughing reading some of these comments🤣 much needed break from yesterday’s chronicles because I was part of BVs that cursed that woman out ehn. Anyway, congrats poster! Marriage no be beans regardless because two different people come together to form a union. Wishing you all the best!
DeleteShe might look like she stated. A lot of people look extremely younger than their age. I have seen this first-hand. Some are naturally blessed with good genes you know.
DeleteCongratulations, I wish you all the best. You shall get married, you shall bear children and may God grant your heart desires
ReplyDeleteMy darling sis, congratulations on your upcoming nuptials! Indeed, what matters most is that you end up with the right partner. Forgive me, but the intention behind your writeup seems disconcerting to me. It shines a light at the end of the tunnel for the older single ladies but also appears to thumb the nose up at younger brides or ladies who got hitched earlier in life. It looks like you are completely unperturbed about having kids at middle age, yet it seems like you're trying to justify it, like a self-consolatory speech as well. It's quite convoluted, to be honest.
ReplyDeleteThe initial response of wanting to celebrate the good news with you was somewhat impaired by having mixed feelings. Sis, please don't get me wrong, you don't know me enough to care about my opinions but it would be remiss of me if I didn't point out the missed opportunity. Your story would have given a lot of older ladies hope, something we all should endeavour to do every now and then. You don't have to justify your choices. It's a live and let die situation. You do you, even if it's at your detriment. It isn't fair to imply that your choices are best suited for all or most ladies. No, darling, it's what suits you.
Are you aware that if you don't have a certain mindset that is evolved, not having a man in your life can age you as well? That's also a source of stress for some people. What's key, in my mind, is not necessarily how early nor how late but how well of a partner you end up with. I met my honeybunny at 22 years, we got hitched 2 years later. As at the time we met, marriage was the last thing on my mind but he stole my heart and planted the desire to marry in my mind. It's been over 2 decades now and I love him more with each passing day. I too look nothing like my age, I can waltz in convincingly as a 30 year old, but I'm in my mid forties. God blessed me with an amazing man and good genetics.
I'll end with this, I wish you a very happy and fulfilling experience in your marriage. May God grant you as many kids as you desire. May all the young married ladies enjoy the husbands of their youth. May the older single ladies not give up on love, there's truly hope as long as one lives. Married, single, divorced, widowed, spoken for or spoken for-ish, may God grant us peace and settle us on every side. Amen!
e-hugs and kisses.
Baby at any age is a risk
ReplyDeletePls everyone no matter your age, do testing so no regret
Poster you look very much your age, sometimes our eyes patronize our looks, in this day and age where we have hot mums? tsk tsk, keep consoling yourself.
ReplyDeleteHahaha 🤣 🤣 but how you take know she looks her age??? you personally know her?? You’ve seen her before?? She said she no look her age o loll. Stella some of your blog visitors sha. Some of them should be stand up comedians because na inbuilt 😆
DeleteCongratulations! Your write up is a great encouragement to me.
ReplyDeleteI am 45 but look so much younger , never married and no kids yet. I refuse to yield to societal pressure . I trust God to tie the knot soonest.
