Thank
you for being patient through all our demands after we eventually say
YES to you. We have so many conflicting emotions that even we are
confused sometimes, and through our mood swings, you try everything
possible to make us happy. You spend time with us, take us shopping/buy
stuffs for us, and spring up surprises, all just to make us happy. You
make us feel super special and important to your world by giving us
your total attention.
Adun Igbeyawo originates from the Yoruba language of the western region in Nigeria and it means 'the joys of marriage'. For a long time, the society has created fears about the marriage institution, and deliberately left out the joys. It is my earnest desire to use this blog to promote God's intentions for marriage and also celebrate as many couples as I come across in my lifetime, that are working out their marriage God's way by sharing our experiences. Welcome!

DEAR MEN......
Thank you for accepting us the way we are, even
though you sometimes do not understand how we are wired, you still
stick with us. Thank you for always giving us the thrill of a good
chase when asking us out. Those beautiful rhymes of poetry you display
either verbally or written, rendered to woo us into falling into your
arms. Some of us know what you really want, that is why we give you a
hard time for your time’s worth. Some of us take pity on you and just
express...
our minds to you so you don’t waste your time, not like some of you get
the message on time. Believe me when I say women are gifted with good
instincts, though not all of us are sensitive to it. We can tell when a
man is fooling around with us and when he is really serious, we
deliberately give ourselves in to the adventure of what the positive
outcomes would be.

Can you handle THE TRUTH!
If there's one thing I
have promised myself to always keep in mind in my marital life, it's to always
tell myself the truth and square up to face it regardless of how bitter it may
be. The truth, some say is bitter but I love the part that it also sets free.
This tells me, knowledge without manipulation is very powerful. I have been to
several weddings this year and have seen how people strive to put quality in
the events. Whether they do it to impress others or just to ensure that they have a fun filled day, the most important
thing is to know that this is the beginning of something entirely different.
Couples need to realise that being happy in marriage is more than putting happy looking pictures of you and your spouse on social media. I tell those that care to listen, don't ever pray for the kind of marriage your friends have based on what you see and read about them. People never present a bad image of them selves to the public. You don't know what is going on in the privacy of their bedroom.
