In life, there are different kinds of pulling the trigger. We don't have to kill people with a physical gun before we know we dropped a trigger. There are 10,000 ways to kill people especially emotionally and the most powerful tool is the tongue.
But hey, the physical guns that are killing a great number of people here in Nigeria is also inclusive and other places around the world.
Introduction
One lovely night in a cool soothing weather taking a chilled soda drink. That day was going on smoothly until the words from hell came right in my ears. It would have been better if it were a stranger but the deepest words are said from people we love most. Well, it was from my mother. I guess she did not mean it and because of that I can't really tell you. But for the fact that she didn't not mean it, it didn't cure the negative effect it had on me that night and throughout that whole week. This shows you how bad this can kill people. Also, you might have been the victim of a killer word. How did you feel? Horrible right? that should be enough reason why you should bridle your tongue.
The Only Crises I Know That Exist
The guy killing people in school and committing suicide afterwards, the militants beheading scores of people here In Nigeria, the white cop being more harsh to black folks or maybe white too, the friend who accused are fellow friend wrongly, actually, even one happend just recently of a girl poisoned by her best friend just because of a man, and the many other physical and emotional torture people pour on humanity every single day is caused by a short fall of "Love". It is funny how people hate humanity when humanity as to do with the people.
All these happenings is called the "Love Crises". This was the greatest commandment God gave because he knew very well if you love your neighbor, you wouldn't want to kill, steal , convet or do something really stupid to them. Search within your life, search for the people you've poured hurtful words on even if you didn't behead them, make things right by love. It would be wrong if I did tell you to do something you might not know anything of. So, what do you think love is?
Love Has A Meaning

I don't know everything about love but I know what love is not. At least, being conscious about it can change everything you do and how you do them. Love does not hurt, Love does not boast, Love does not Kill, Love does not gossip
Simply put, Love does not do anything wrong to humanity. That is, if you really want to be moral and ethical, you need first to understand love because it is the key to humility, charity, peace making and a whole lot of nice stuffs. But seriously, I guess all have been saying is equivalent to being perfect, right? And we all know that no one is really perfect. So how can we succeed with this principle? Or should I say, lifestyle?
We are all guilty
Don't look at me that way, you have bloods in your hands. Well, you did not commit the murder alone, cause I was there with you and so many other people on earth, if not all of us. We have been killing ourselves over the years but gradually without anyone taken to the grave, maybe. Those are triggers of hate, envy, jealously, cheating and many other gun shots. We have one way or the other pulled these triggers to people and also get them back in manifolds(good for us), but we do deserve it cause we do it too.
But I got to realize that we might not be perfect, but we can at least try. How?
By Simply by Deciding
Making A Decision Is the Greatest Change
we all have to independent people even if many are quite still not interdependent. But at least, one of the features of independency is making decisions without the influence of any external factor. You are responsible and very able to make decisions. Every decisions proceeds a different situation. The moment you decided something, something comes right after. Let me sight an example, I made a decisions to hate school, and from that moment my grades hated me back. Something here actually occured, right? My results occurred actually.
Same way when you decide and make up your mind to love regardless, things like helping, charity, generosity, corrections, hospitality begins to find their way in.
You can never be so sure of something until you try it. You dont know to what extent love might lead you but it might make you at least drop that gun.
