The Wheel of life.
Many scholars have come up with different philosophies which have over the decades defined life and standards of lifestyles world over.
The adoption of these philosophies have birthed counter cultures and movements whose assimilation with traditional cultures has been allowed in the name of human rights. A typical example of these such movements is feminism. More than allow room for women emancipation or advocate for gender equality, this only brings people into bondage. It creates a biased image of who women are in society and distorts their rightful place in natural and divine order.
The Lord created each person, be it woman or man, the way they are and preordained their orders of heirachy. This would mean that one only needs to stand in what the Lord has established them to be and not the cultures or movements. It’s prudent that as a woman, no one convinces you otherwise about your rights or place outside of what your Maker has designated. It is without a shadow of a doubt that the day you understand yourself as a woman through His lenses, in her true identity, nothing will elude you of the glory and beauty of it. Some of the most foul beliefs we anchor ourselves to do not bring us the peace we strive to have and we shall often find ourselves shoving them down the throats of others that they might accept them of us.
Many people ask themselves many questions and have no answers about many things in life. Let's call it the wheel of life. For example; personal growth. Personal growth in terms of spiritual life. How many times do you commit your selves to the Lord. You can look through your life and check. We are still in on personal growth here, mentally what happens within you. Do you still have questions like a child yet you are an adult. Now days the world is looking for solutions and not cry babies. When you are a person that is a cry baby, you will go no where, I can assure you. But when you are a person that always positions himself, then you can have nations.
The second wheel of life is relationship. Most people when you are talking about relationship, they get so excited. It's not basically what you only think. Yes, it could be part of it but relationship is broad, it could be family, friends, society among others. Ask you self this questions, how many times have you called your family members everyday or even just texting them. How many of your primary friends do you still involve with in conversation. Most people cut of bonds even when they are still new bonds. Some people end up in wrong relationships just because they look at everyone as a potential partner. Let's leave that. You should be able to evaluate yourself at the end of the wheel of life.
The third wheel of life is health. When we talk about health, we talk about your general body health. Your work outs, how many times do you work out. Let's say we give it thrice a week. It doesn't necessarily mean you must go to gym, but you can do it in any space. However small it is. And let it be a routine.
