hmnn, Ok,maybe i should ask this, is it true that the people we love are sometimes the one we tend to hurt the most? i am so confused and just not on my bearings this morning; i have someone that always, no mater how sad and unhappy i find myself, the minute of seeing the person makes all sadness disappear, dont ask me how it happens, but thats my heart for you, no matter how this person offends me, (truthfully, sometimes i feel the person takes advantage of my helplessness of undiluted care,affection and love to play on my mind) i can hold no grudge. Few weeks ago, we both travelled for a function, i had to come back to attend to business meetings amongst other things, Yesterday, i got a call from this person(over 45min on the fone) and in the course of our discussion, i made her understand the pains am going through of having to keep my sanity together due to recent happenings concerning us both and she said "the people we love most are sometimes the one we tend to hurt the more", and then i asked myself, if you hurt me to the poit of me loosing it, how do you justify the fact that am the one you love the most??? Am higjly confused on this and really, i could do with some answers...
well, am goona try hard to push that to the back of my mind just to take care of business, in the meantime, some entertament news off the wire...

Cameroon Remain Atop African Rankings
Cameroon have moved two places higher in the latest FIFA world rankings and now stand 12th on the global table. The Indomitable Lions remain the highest placed African side - 10 places ahead of Egypt, who lie 22nd in the worldwide list - and are now two positions ahead of England and lie just behind France.
Egypt, Ghana and Ivory Coast all dropped places in the main table with Ghana falling below the Pharaohs to third in the African rankings, with the Super Eagles of Nigeria fourth (27th world ranking). Equatorial Guinea are the biggest losers from the recent month, dropping 34 places overall - down to 121 in the world placings and 35 on the African list. Congo-Brazzaville are the biggest risers, climbing 43 places in the global rankings to 57th in the world and 12th in the African list. Overall, Spain remain the world’s top team with Italy and Germany in second and third respectively.
The Indomitable Lions secured their place in the final round of qualifying for the 2010 World Cup and Africa Cup of Nations last month, which boosted their rating.
Right! thats it for today, and hey, you guys, dont forget to have a swell time and keep it all locked up and make someone's life worth living.
