Relationship And The Tale Of Joyce Vincent

I just read about Joyce Vincent, a 38 year old beautiful and intelligent lady who died in her apartment in 2003 but her body was discovered in 2006 after her account dried up and her rent was due with arrears. Nobody noticed that she had died until years later. 

Her bills were paid automatically from her account. She died in her room while watching TV. It wasn't clear what killed her but asthma and possibly pelptic ulcer was suspected to be the cause of her death. Until her body was discovered, the TV was on and was showing.


Her windows were opened and letters were piling up on her doorstep for three years. No one cared to check up on her. No one cared to know why they haven't seen Joyce for a long time. No neighbor or friend knocked to know why she's not been seen outside. It was gathered that her apartment had a waste dump close by so people felt that was why the neighbors couldn't get to perceive the smell coming out from her decomposing body.

This is a lady who had met friends from a high social class. Every man wanted her and she seemed like a threat to a lot of women back then because she was so attractive and the best men wanted her. But this wasn't enough, she lacked true friends and some people felt she had everything going and needed no one. Probably she intentionally shut people out of her life.

Overthinking Is Not The Cause Of Every Problem

Do You Think Overthinking Is The Cause Of Every Problem? People don't just suffer because of worries of the heart. What they are battling may be sickness, accident recovery, serious lack or severe stress from work. And in this case blind advice will not mean much to them.  Before you advise someone or start judging them, know that there are some kinds of problems that whether you care to think about it or not, it will painfully affect you; you will still suffer the pain. You can't avoid the pain and the effect whether you are overthinking it or not.  Someone that was beaten or that is sick will feel pain even if they have a positive mindset. No matter how your mind is off it, your body will respond to it and the effect will be felt. Get your transcription into different languages here. Someone that is constantly starving too will feel pain and their body will change. It can even make them weak and unable to function well. This can take away their happiness and it is not becaus...

Fights In The Big Brother Naija House

ChiChi vs Bella and Amaka vs Phyna fought already  Just few days into the house, flights have started already. Between the ladies as usual. The fights are between ChiChi vs Bella in the Island house and Amaka vs Phyna in the Trenches house. 1. ChiChi vs Bella So ChiChi complained about the tasks pairing and that she doesn't like the pairing. Bella countered her and said she should have complained about her displeasure since and not now. The two started raising their voices at each other while exchanging bitter words. "Don't shout at me like market woman. Before you try me, try crack!" ChiChi yelled at Bella. In her response, Bella said "that one no enter." The heated argument and fight came too early and every other housemates in the Island were just watching the two as they fight. 2. Amaka vs Phyna So these two were thought to be bonding as friend in the Trenches house. No one could be believe that they will fight each other, at least not this early. So wha...

The Back Ends (Poem)

  BACK ENDS Chasing the wind Lost in the whirlwind The noise,  The sound of anger The hidden and open horror The sweet excitement Mixed up in the moment Photo Credit: Octavia Fossatti/unsplash Was there an assurance? Oh the brutal romance Was it mutual? Oh the crossroads  It said "two became one" These two are separate individuals Two clashing wants Enjoy the moment while it last" A phrase of a player A player with multiple faces Get in the game and be an outcast It will be you in an utopia But your intuition will beg to differ In the end, follow your intuition Read: "life is sometimes like this" by Godiya Joshua
