Dear Sisters,

Due to the unfolding events in the society, I wish to write this letter from my heart to you. Take heed and benefit from it. Being spiritual is good but there are various things that should not be ignored as a result.

Don’t be too SPIRITUAL and forget the place of COMMON SENSE in your relationship. SPIRITUALITY WILL NOT do the following for you;

  •  Teach you how to cook a good meal. Note that no matter how long you Fast and Pray, you will still need to prepare meals for a man. Remember, the easiest way to a man’s heart is through his stomach; (this is not noodles)
  • Spirituality will not show you how to keep yourself and environment clean. Remember, cleanliness is next to godliness; (dutifulness)
  • It will not replace a good DRESS SENSE. Please look good and attractive always; (I’m not recommending your going nude… Dress smart… No man wants to marry a woman that reminds him how the grand mother dresses)
  • Being spiritual will not help you avoid body, hair or mouth odour; (these kills people around you faster than Aids.) Please save a brothers around you.
  • It will not teach you grammatical composure while speaking and replying statements/comments in public, (read books, the world does not revolve around a religion; SPIRITUALITY can only control your impulses… But whatever comes out afterwards, don’t blame God, blame yourself for not being studious and conscious).
  • It doesn’t replace the expected caring, understanding, submissive and loving person; attitude is an essential part of existence.

Remember, relationship is both physical and spiritual
