Excerpts from Ephraim Abutu-

Communication is ubiquitous, so you cannot but communicate. Most times some people think communication have to do with the outspoken word or the ability for one to know how to express himself or herself - this is absolutely far from it. Research has shown that human communicate more with non - verbal cues which is about 85% while 5% or less is verbal communication. So the day you choose to remain quite or keep mute and in your mind, you will think you are gentle, you are indirectly passing out a great information to other people to read more meaning about your personality and this can either be seen as Negative or Positive. 

Also, human beings also have different ways in which they exhibit their emotions and this is known as "love language" - the psychologists can tell more about this. So your love language can come in different ways which us also part of non-verbal communication. Most importantly, communication cut across different counties and even organisation.  So when you are in a new environment, try to understand their communication style and try adjust yourself into it. Don't be a stiff necked communicator or a one way communicator - diversification is very important and we must respect and put that into consideration when dealing with different people. 

Finally, in communication or self awareness development, there is something we called Johari Window - this is a psychological way in which people know their different human behaviour. Some parts are known or open to you but close to other, some are open to other but close to you and while some are open to the public and also visible to you. So you see, you cannot but communicate. Understanding yours is paramount.

Theme Bible Verses

Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." Proverbs 16:28 A perverse man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 17: 9 He who forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter alienates a friend. Leviticus 19:16 You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not stand forth against the life of your neighbour: I am the LORD. Proverbs 26:20 For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarrelling ceases. 22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body. Proverbs 11:13 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing hidden. Psalms 34:13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Charles For: Frien

Our TLF 2 Day Event started on Thursday and ended yesterday Friday. We had the person of Mrs Ishioma Francis who came to share good news with the children. We had Art competition and prizes were given. We had spelling bee and gifts were given. We had skipping competition and gifts were given. We had recitation of poems originally written by the children and gifts were given. We also used the opportunity to remind everyone of our theme for August. We shared our drinks and biscuits and everyone had a nice time. The children interacted and had a nice time. It came to a happy end and everyone went back home safely. We look forward to more activities such as these. We thank God for the success and blessings. God bless all those who contributed in various ways. Remember that, the ultimate law is love. TLF

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook
