ELVIRA’S PEN

CAUSE AND EFFECT - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved 💛 I know we must have heard of the word “Karma”… we use it a lot when we don’t know how to retaliate. We just say “karma will catch up with him.”  Before now I used to think Karma was a negative word; the result of bad things we have done coming back to catch up with us. In the right sense, Karma is not just about the bad things coming back to us. It is a force that returns both good and bad.  In Buddhism, Hinduism, and some other circles of spirituality, it is believed that whatever thing you do (good or evil) will greatly influence what happens to you in this life or other future lives (reincarnation).  The force that brings these deeds back is what we call Karma.  To simply put this, life exists on a Law of Cause and Effect. Everything we do is registered in our energetic field that spins around like a wheel. It some how goes around and comes back to us in thesame form or other forms. Sometimes this wheel is s...

DOORS, GATEWAYS AND GATEKEEPERS - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! When this topic came to me this morning, it was quite a struggle because everything that came was a bit too deep, that I wouldn’t know how to break them down. This was the last and breaking it down may also not be so easy but I will try. Every important house, building or facility has a door. Anywhere people live or keep something, despite the levels of importance, has a door. There is always an entry point to a place.  If it happens to be an extremely important place, it could have several gates and entrances before you can get to the main thing or person the building holds. Most of the time, the most important things, the most valuables and most sort after have several entry points and gate keepers that you must go through before you can arrive at the core of what you are pursuing. Even reaching God has a gateway. Psalm 100:4 talks about entering God’s gateway and how to enter that gateway. My thoughts this mor...

THE LAW OF TRANSITION- Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! 😘 I was reflecting on my life from 15-10-5 and even 2 years back and I identified some things that I want to share.  If you replay your memories in a linear manner, taking chunks of time away from where you are, you will be able to calculate your growth and how far you have come from 2-5-10-15 years ago. When you are living and experience life on a daily (which I absolutely recommend) it is hard to really see how far you have come and what brought you this far.  But when you detach from your current reality and reflect on your life in a long period of time from a birds-eye-view, it is easier for you to see your life’s journey, the progress you have made, the pivotal points of that progress and how they worked together to bring you to where you are. It’s more like when you are walking along the road, you wouldn’t know what is on the other street until you make a turn into that street. Even then, you will only see as fa...

NO RIGHT OR WRONG CHOICE - Elvira Jordan A lot of people will not agree with this statement but I will still tell… Based on personal reasons and past experiences, I am not big on making grand choices… I mean, when you have a big decision to make and you have to be careful what you choose or else you will make a mistake…. Bleeeeh! Not for me. 🤪 It is true that our choices determine the outcome of our lives, but this truth is subjective because even our choices do not count at all when life wants to happen. That doesn’t mean we throw our power of choosing to the wind and just live life as it goes. It’s about making choices without letting those choices be a source of pressure to your mental and emotional state. I have had friends in situations where their inability to decide on what they want to choose would make them more miserable than the outcome of their choices. Daily eaten up by the probability of being right or wrong when life could be JUST A LEAP OF FATE. The way I see life, it’...

The Environmental Defenders Network (EDEN) is calling on the Edo State Government, the Ministry of Environment and the State Emergency management team to aid the people of Ekeke-Erah community in   Owan East LGA, Edo State following a devastating dam collapse that led to destruction of their environment. EDEN received a Save-Our-Souls from a member of the community, about a dam failure near the Agric Settlement in Esan West LGA since the 22 January 2025.

YOUR MOOD, YOUR PERFUME - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! 🥰 In recent times, I have prioritized my inner self over the outter personality and how it relates to everyday living. I mean prioritizing the content of my thoughts, the things I watch on social media, the people I give space in my head, my spiritual being, my mood, my vibes and every other none physical aspect of this babe called Elvira. Of late, rather than focusing on getting everything in and around my life right, I have focused more on fixing the aspects of myself that people cannot see, and this inner fixing has greatly shaped the personality that people see. By keeping tabs on these inners aspects of me, I have gradually shifted my outlook and view towards everything. This example plays very well in my mood and how it affects my daily life. I realized that I thrive better when I am happy, joyful, grateful and upbeat. Everything about my life feels easier and smoother when my mood is good. So I concentrate on maintai...

PAY ATTENTION TO THE SIGNS AND PATTERNS - Elvira Jordan  Good Morning Beloved! At one time in our lives, we have all found ourselves in situations where we are trying so hard to make a decision, seeking clarity that gets blur with every attempt, asking questions that seem to have no answer. In all our life’s journey, we will all get to a season where we had to make a hard decision with limited options, or having too many options and being afraid to take the wrong one. I may have colored these situations with really nice words but the experiences aren’t really nice and can’t be nicely explained. This is because most of the time, such decisions are a pivot point in our journey through life. They often mark a critical moment in our lives where every decision or step counts for something. In the past, I have had it heavy with decision making, so much that I still end up making the wrong ones, after putting so much effort into it. Until I realized that most of the time, the answers to o...
