Are There Good Men Still

We often ask, “do good men still exist?” “Do we still have good men?” “Are there still good men?”

A good man sitting in peace and quiet

With the openings around the world and the trend of things in our society today, most of us have been made to say that “There are no good men in the world.” It is hard to believe though but it is true that, most of the people who say there are no good people in the world somehow still hope to meet a good person someday. 

The truth is, there are good men still and there are good women still. Most of us just only keep going to the wrong places and hope to find good men there. And most times, when a girl meets a good man, she would complain as to why he is not going to all those places that good men hardly go to. 

There are places good men cannot go or rather hardly go to, and so there are places you can hardly find good men. When you want to catch fish, you go to the river right? Or swamp or lake. You get the picture. When you want to catch animals for meat, you go into the forest. Likewise, there are places where good men stay because of their traits.

We cannot find good men everywhere, especially not in places where you can find everybody. One thing that a good man does not joke with is his value for his peace and quiet. Anything or place that will infringe on his peace and quiet is a no do thing or a no-go area for him.

If you can think of places where there can be absolute peace and quiet then you already know where to find good men.

And if you can think of places where there can be noise and chaos, then you already know where you would not be able to find good men there.

I’ll just list a few places where peace and quiet can be guaranteed and some places where there can be obvious chaos. Make your list of such places and know where you can or cannot find good men. Good men do exist.


Places you can hardly find good men

Clubs

You can hardly find good men in clubs. One of the reasons why a lot of women or young girls hardly find good men is because they are looking for them in clubs and good men hardly go to clubs.


Bars

Good men hardly go to bars. Good men literarily stay away from where chaos may likely occur and clubs and bars are one of those places.


Where to find good men.

Home

Home is one of the places where you would find good men. In a home where there is peace and quiet is where you can always find a good man. A good man always wants to stay at a place where he can have some peace and quiet. The only time a good man would not want to stay at home is when the home is not giving him the peace and quiet, he needs. Good men value their peace beyond almost anything.


Church

Now it’s not every man who goes to a church that is a good man but most good men always want to be in church because, in church, they don’t lose their peace. If you see a good man who doesn’t always want to be in church, then you’ve seen a church that is making it difficult for him to be there, mostly by a commitment he does not have the leverage of.

If the church is what the church should be then you may hardly find a good man away from church because they know the church is one of the places, they get refuelled to be the good men that they already are.

Good men always stick to themselves because they value their peace and quiet. Anything or any place that does not guarantee their peace and quiet, they stay away from.

If you ever meet a good man and he is trying to stay away from you, it’s simple, you are not letting them maintain their peace and quiet.


On the Road.

You can find a good man on the go when he is going somewhere or coming back from somewhere he had some peace and quiet. Those places can be repair shops, stores, driving or just walking by the side of the road.

Good men also keep their circle of friends small because good men can almost tell who a good person and a bad person is by mare observing someone or having a five minutes conversation with someone.

And good people know that they automatically become bad people by associating with a bad person and they don’t want to be bad people. They intentionally chose to be good so they know how to keep their circle of associates small.

Someone once said, show me someone who has a lot of friends and I will show you someone who is not defined.

Good men value the friendship that they have and they value what they believe in. Good men will hardly want to surround themselves with people they don’t see as good people because associating with such people they know can only ruin their peace and they value their peace so much.


Good Men Still Exist

Good men still exist, when you find them, the least you can do is to let them maintain their peace and quiet if you cannot add to it.

And when you find them, don’t try to take them to all those places that come with the presence of possible chaos like clubs and bars except he wants to be there. And when he went to such places with you and he said it’s time to move, don’t compel him to stay a little longer because most times he might have seen what you did not see.

Good men still exist, you can’t only find them in clubs and bars and quite unfortunately, those are the places we look to find good men the most.

Good men value their peace and quiet so you can mostly find them at home, worst-case scenario, on the road when they are on an errand or just taking a walk pondering on some stuff.

Woman - Poem

By Costly Oma . 1. Unaware, she seems,  Fragile, yet able. Tender, she appears. Weak, yet strong. 2. Subtle with wit. Accommodating with guard. Loose with focus. Loving with vision. 3. Characterized by beauty. Categorized as an angel. Graced with curves, And strides with style. 4. Builder like a bird. Keeper like a hen. Lover like a dolphin. Carrier like a whale. 5. Protector like an eagle. Giver like a hose. Fighter like animal. Server like a servant. 6. Product like honey. Fierce, yet gentle. Comforts like a home. This is a woman.

NYSC SCHEME - Poem

By Costly Oma .  Written In 2013.  First Published: Feb. 2014. 1.  An idea was birthed,  And into action, it sprung. Since from Nineteen Seventy-Three, Youths have been shuffled. 2. With a call, we moved A call to serve, our best to render, A call to give, our best to offer. A call to keep one Nigeria 3. Under the sun, we matched. In the rain, no difference. When it’s bright and clear, And otherwise, we answer. 4. A call like no other, Beginning with a journey, Then living three weeks in exclusion, Learning new things in new style. 5. A call so anticipated, Becomes so tiring with time, Then feels it should be extended but boring, Yet memories linger. 6. With the hope of National unity, It was birthed.  I hope that its cause has not been tilted, For sacrifices have been made. 7. NYSC SCHEME, We hope that your aim we achieve, For your call we heard, And your rules we kept. #nyscpoem #nyscschemepoem #scheme #nysc #poems #nationalyouthservice #nationalyouthservicecorp ##nationalyouthservic

Time - Poem

TIME Speaking!!! 1. Trust me, I’m in your beginning, In-between. And in your end. 2. I’m a part you can’t do without. An entity of immeasurable worth. A unit of the highest value. A mystery in essence. 3. Your future, I determine Your goals, I monitor Your achievements All, wrapped up in me. 4. I’m terrible. I’m hostile. I’m always against you. But I am a friend. 5. The diligence blesses me. The froward curse me. What are you? I AM TIME. 6. Seek me early and In abundance, you shall find me Seek me late and In the scarcity of me, you shall wallow. 7. Feel you have me, Lost me, you’d just. Feel you lost me, In hast, you must be. 8. Yea, you wish, I know. That I could be friendlier. But this is who and what I am. Just time. Man Speaking!!! 9. Oh, time. A treasure, yet cruel. A blessing, yet a curse. In endless circles you are. 10. Fashioning every man’s destiny. From where did you spring? A limited counting you are, In regular intervals. 11. Regulating man’s every endeavour. Slow it is wh

Father - Poem

By Costly Oma . 1. A Father. A role you are given. A role you didn't ask for, Yet you accepted, And have learned to understand. 2. A Father. Like a purpose, You stay loyal to it's aim. Like a vision, You stay married to it's picture. 3. A Father. Characterized by strength, Categorized by direction. Geared to provide. Wired to protect. 4. A Father. You carry a burden, Burden unknown to your wife, Burden unknown to your children, Burden unknown to your family. 5. The strength of the home. The defense of the family.  You cry sometime, Oh, yes you do, But not in the open.  6. Children misconcepts you, Misconcepts your nature, Nature of care and provision, And ascribes everything to their mothers. Lost are we without a father.  7. I love you dad, I don't misconcept you, Thank you for your seamless, Seamless care and provision.  My Father. #costly #oma #costlyoma #costlyomapoems #costlyomablog #father #fatherpoem #poemaboutfather #poemaboutafather

The Reason

By Costly Oma . 1. Solace, I find in poetry. In poetry, relief, I find. Not without the pain. But the pain, it soothes. 2. In my darkest days, And in my darkest hours, A line of poetry, in my heart, The difference, make. 3. When I find myself lost, In all that I cannot explain, The courage to press, A poetry gives. 4. My first love, I cannot tell. The present, past, and future. I choose the now, For the morrow, I know not. 5. When the bridge is out, And the living, being choked away, But saddled with poetry, To hold and hold I may. 6. From the lines of Ann Taylor's My Mother. To the ancient scripts of Dangerous Beauty, I grief still, But a lift, in poetry I find.  Happy World Poetry Day.

My Death-Feelings So Far – Part 1

By Costly Oma . My Death Encounter Part - 1. ~~My Body Leaving My Body~~ Sometime in the first quarter of the year 2018, around 4 AM in the morning, while I was still in bed, I was woken up by a strong presence of what I can call death. I felt this chilled cold sweep past me, from the soul of my feet to the crown of my head. It was so dramatic as I feel like the cold was swallowing me, starting from the soul of my feet to the crown of my head. As I got completely engulfed by the cold, I woke up. I woke up and got down from the bed but I was still seeing myself lying on the bed. I stood up but it felt like I wasn’t the one standing as I was seeing another me lying in bed. I was obviously at this point confused as to what was happening as I am both standing and lying down at the same time. As I was yet to get my mind organised as to what was happening, I saw a thick dark cloud forming at the westside wall of the room. This thick dark cloud looks so dirty and it smells so bad. As this cl

My Life Experiences And Quotes

By Costly Oma . Life has a way of Teaching, Taming and training humans. All of these life's teachings could be termed as Life's Experiences and everyone has had a measure of them. No two individuals have the same sets of life experiences in their entirety since no two people have been known to have been subjected to the same sets of living in all ramifications since our life's experiences are how we live based. I've got some of my life experiences compiled. I hope they give you something to think about as you go through them one after the other. In the cause of life, I've come to learn the following:  My father would always say; Make sure you know all there is to know. If you want something done well, do it yourself. He that rests, rusts. Education without morality is like tea without sugar. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. People generally, hardly mean what they say but women are more so. And he warns; be extremely careful on how you execute women's de

Be Inspired - Story Of An Elephant and a Dog

An elephant and a dog became pregnant at the same time. Three months down the line the dog gave birth to six puppies. Six months later the dog was pregnant again, and nine months on it gave birth to another dozen puppies. The pattern continued. On the eighteenth month, the dog approached the elephant questioning, "Are you sure that you are pregnant? We became pregnant on the same date, I have given birth three times to a dozen puppies and they are now grown to become big dogs, yet you are still pregnant. What's going on?" The elephant replied, "There is something I want you to understand. What I am carrying is not a puppy but an elephant. I only give birth to one in two years. When my baby hits the ground, the earth feels it. When my baby crosses the road, human beings stop and watch in admiration, what I carry draws attention. So what I'm carrying is mighty and great." Don't lose faith when you see others receive answers to their prayers. Don't be e

There Are No Ordinary Words.

60% of all human communication is Nonverbal, meaning body language. 30% comes from the Tone in our voice. This means that what is really coming out of our mouths is just 10%. By   Costly Oma .  Our Words are like Bullets So To Say In a world where everyone has something to say and we are all saying one thing or the other, it is pertinent that we all learn and know or become aware of how to choose our words carefully and the tone in our voice correctly anytime we are engaging in a conversation knowing that for the message to be communicated accurately, there must be sound, and tones make up sounds and sounds come in words in conversation. Here is something I call the right choice of words. When the tone is right, the sound is right and when words are carefully chosen, communication is excellent. Don’t you want to get to that point? For me, I always want to be there. In this article, we will be learning the importance of choosing our words and the tone of our voice correctly when engagin

Choosing The Sex Of Your Baby.

The Shettle's Method By Costly Oma . This post is all about having the knowledge that will enable us to choose the sex of our babies. That is, having the knowledge to choose whether as couples, we want to have a male child or we want to have a female child at any time that we want to add a child to the family.  This method of course is Shettle's method of choosing the sex of our babies. It is called the Shettle's method because the method was named after the person who invented it  Landrum B. Shettles in the 1960s. This Shettle's method was published in the book How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby , coauthored by Shettles and David Rorvik . The book How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby was first published in 1971 and has been in print in various editions ever since. Although this method has been said to not have strong scientific proof, people who have followed the method have testified to have been able to choose the sex of the baby they want to have and they said that
