Gratitude
Hi everyone. I want to thank you all for your backing. You’re all special people who keep Fiez writing.
What will writing ever be without the reader? What will Fiez ever be without you?
So, Thank You.❤
Loads of thanks to God for making Fiez shine brighter.

Today, I want to remind you to not expect too much from people for sometimes this is where our sorrow come from.
I’m the kind that don’t expect too much from others. We are all human and humans fail. I fail, you fail, we fail.
So, going out everyday expecting too much from people is the saddest way to live and the best way to live and be happy is to not to expect anything at all expect to do your best – for others.
It’s like you do all you can to support other people without expecting them to do the same to you. It is hard but that’s the best way.
It doesn’t mean that people won’t treat you fine, some will but the thing is, they do when you don’t see it coming. People can be full of surprises and you know that surprises happen only when you’re not expecting.
When I hear people say, “I did this for him and see what I’ve got in return,” I say, wow, you should have known that before now. You should have known that people fail sometimes.

I'm a food scientist who has chosen the path of creative writing- the one thing which comes to me naturally.
Back in 2013, my love for teaching young learners propelled me into picking teaching as a career. I taught English, Maths and Science in the United Arab Emirates where I lived for ten years. Right now, I live in Coal City, a beautiful hilly area of my country Nigeria.
My website Fiez-writer is a product of my extreme desire to share my writing with the world. Here, I share fiction, poems, thoughts and writing tips.
A huge part of my life is spent with my lovely family and I'm a proud mother to three brilliant kids.
That’s true Florence. Only God can supply all our needs. People are vessels He uses. So we must keep our focus on Him, our True Source.

You’re welcome! People can certainly hurt us. I’ve found that out many times. But like you said, we should not expect too much. ❤️

You’re right Dawn. People are bound to disappoint us if we place too much hope on them, they’re human. We should understand that and place all out hope in God.
