10 Stupid Things You Shouldn’t Do When You’re Young (Pt 2)




This is a sequel to yesterdays post and today, I’m sharing the remaining 5 stupid things you shouldn’t do when you’re wrong.  Read the previous 5 things here.

#6 – Enter into a Blood Covenant

No matter how in love you are right now, NEVER enter into a blood covenant or any kind of covenant for that matter. If love is not enough to keep you both, a covenant is not enough either. Moreover, making such a covenant just gives the devil a platform to manipulate circumstances to ensure you both break the covenant and suffer the consequences. The only covenant you should enter into for love should be a marriage.
#7 – Enter into a Shrine for any Reason

Oya, hold your ears: NEVER ENTER A JUJU SHRINE FOR ANY REASON. Period!!! Whether you’re just accompanying a friend, someone accused you of something and wants you to swear an oath there, you want to “inquire” on something or get something to make your business or relationship work better, NEVER go to a shrine. That singular action of stepping you into a shrine opens you up to evil spirits and assorted evil manipulations to start working in your life. If you think I’m wrong, ask your pastor. You have your whole life ahead of you to jeopardize it this way.

#8 – Hook up with Strangers in Secret Places
Yea, I know you can take care of yourself, after all you’re no longer a baby. If you have to meet up with strangers or acquaintances in strange places, make sure to tell at least one person close to you where you’re going to and who you’re going with, just in case anything happens. Even if it’s your “boyfriend” or “bossom friend” you’re going to a strange place with, always make sure at least one person knows. Friends and boyfriends have led people to their untimely death, you know. A word is enough for the wise.

#9 – Get Involved with Married Men
Okay, Okay; say whatever you feel like about dating married men. But the truth is: when you date married men, it creates an aura around you that eventually hurts you in future, despite all you think you may gain. That aura becomes like a spiritual perfume or sign board that attracts only married men looking for a booty call to you and blinds single guys to you which will leave you in frustration by the time you’re ready to settle down. To understand this more, read Juanita Bynum’s book No More Sheets.

#10 – Prove Your Love via Sex

 As long as the earth remains, this cliché will be used “If you love me, prove your love for me”. And then all the pressures to prove your love via sex begins. Don’t be deceived; that has always been a punch line to get ladies to have pre-marital sex. Sex has never been a proof of love. Despite how much he threatens to leave you or get it from some other girl, even if you give in have sex with him, he will still leave you and get another girl when he’s through with you. Wise up; it’s the testosterone speaking, not love. 

Voila! Those are the stupid things you shouldn’t do when you’re young because like a boomerang, they will come back to bite you in nasty places in your future. The choice is now yours to make. If you still choose to be entangled in them, get ready to stomach the consequences in future. May God give us all the grace to make the right choices at each point in life. Xoxo. Have a smashing weekend.
