<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">So I actually wrote this piece two years ago and I don't know why, but I never published it. I found it today and decided its definitely worth a publish, yes? Please enjoy... Keep in mind I was a rookie back then (probably why it's so long...) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
Guess what this is about? I'll tell you. It's about this teeny little very important thing called Marriage. Well more like Getting Married. Okay so before I get ahead of myself, let me say I really don't know a whole lot about the subject; though I have seen and heard quite a bit. While we learn from the marriage experiences of others, the best and most colourful stories will always be your personal experience. So I won't be 'talking' about marriage today, instead I'll be giving my humble opinion on the simple sub-topic of "What Time is Right?"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
Someone once said 'being single does not mean being alone - singleness does not equal alone-ness'... Our society has unconsciously (or consciously) trained the mind of the average Nigerian female, that her ultimate goal should be to get married to a 'good' man (wouldn't hurt if he's a really good 'catch') and have a few kids (and depending on your tribe, of both sexes if you please). Recently though, a lot of women seem determined to break out of that mind set. Some now put career, financial security, etc clearly above marriage on their priority lists. So women of this new crop would prefer to get married only when they have a really good job that right now pays all the bills with a chunk left over, a nice car, significant investments, maybe an apartment, maybe even one or two extra degrees. Call them feminist or not, they'll still tell you that life doesn't begin and end with the word marriage and that every woman has the right to be all she wants to be and then some, with or without the presence of a husband. And that you'll most likely regret it and cause yourself undue heartache, </span><span style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif;">getting married with no sense of independence and no financial security of your own. </span><br />

On the other hand however, there are some women who believe that they have done nothing really worthy of note or commendation in their lives till they get married. For these ladies, every second thought is directly or indirectly related to ending this bondage called 'singleness'. Another group of ladies live strictly for the approval of their parents/family, so they marry when family says it's time, and to whom family says is right; t</span><span style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif;">heir opinions (if expressed at all) count for little or nothing. S</span><span style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif;">ometimes the ladies in this group have no say in the matter by virtue of religion or culture. So I'll just ask, what is the right age for a lady to get married. Is there even such a thing as the 'right age?' And what age should a lady start getting antsy? is it 22, 24, 25, 27, 29 or 33? At what age should she maybe just settle for whoever she has in front of her at that time, regardless of his flaws or her reservations? </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />I can't speak for all women, but what I'll say is that everybody and that includes every woman, was created to fulfill a purpose, to fulfill a wonderful destiny, and it's just plain unfair to our creator to restrict that purpose to marriage. There's so much more we are called to be and to do outside of a marriage. For one and most importantly, as Christians, our primary assignment is to be about our Father's business, telling the world around us about the love and saving grace of Jesus Christ. Everyone who desires to be married should do so at their own time, led by God and to a partner of their own choice, also of course led by God. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">You should be so sure that your love for this person will never wane, regardless of any imperfections, no matter how minor or major they may be. You should be sure that your marriage will stand in the face of any kinds of winds no matter how fierce - financial winds, relational winds, fertility winds, career/business winds, etc. Some say you should marry your friend, I say please do. The love shared between two sincere friends is something special. If you've ever noticed, it's like you carry the person in your heart all the time. That's what a marriage should be like. That kind of love is quite different from the emotionally controlled, lust controlled, romantic 'love' that most marriages are built on today. Your marriage should be a wonderful mixture of both romantic love and a deep feeling of friendship.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
So please, don't enjoy your life any less because you're single. Don't attend every occasion and leave disappointed because you didn't meet 'him'. Maybe sometimes you attend a wedding here or another social event there and as soon as you settle down you quickly zero in on one guy that fits your picture of 'him' and you proceed to mentally put a 'potential future husband' stamp on his forehead. Then you make him the focus of your attention the entire evening, you follow his every move, hoping he'll glance your way, your eyes will meet and BAM!! well... sorry hun, it doesn't always work that way. If you're confident enough you'll probably walk up to him, introduce yourself and start a conversation. If you're not, isn't it better you spend that lovely afternoon/evening mingling, laughing, meeting new people, some who might even be good business contacts, and just basically enjoying yourself.. instead of moping, or worse, doing silly, unintelligent things in a bid to get someone's attention.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
So, if you are in a relationship presently and you honestly don't think you can live alone with that person happily for the next 40 years, please rethink. Or you're in a relationship with someone that finds the concept of praying together very odd, or you're that is so physical that you've probably never had a single, long (4/5 hours of) intelligent conversation or mentally stimulating discussion/argument ever? Do try it, you might be surprised to learn that you guys have so very little to even talk about or agree on!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Whatever the case may be, please, LIVE this one life that God has blessed you with, enjoy your family and your friends, be a blessing to people around you every day.. please be a blessing! Keep smiling, laugh more, don't worry, he will come. *wink</span><br />

It might not be today, it might not be this month, maybe not this year, but eh, do you really want to look back on your life and see all what you could have done if only you hadn't been worrying so much, </span><span style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif;">all the prayers you could have prayed for others? while you were </span><span style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif;">focusing on issues that are not that crucial in the grand scheme of things? You will be married one day, it won't be a mistake and by the grace of God you will be very happy and fulfilled in your marriage, plus you'll have as many healthy and beautiful children as you desire..now THAT is my prayer for you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small; line-height: 115%;">Hi all, so I've really
been wanting to do a write-up on a topic very close to my heart. Waiting For
"The One"... Well, Janette-ikz has taken that particular task away from me,
cos this poem is EXACTLY from my heart through her mouth. And I'm sure, so many
of you beautiful ladies will echo that. Please enjoy... and be blessed... and
know that you CAN wait, once you truly know what you're waiting for.*</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small; line-height: 150%;">What do worship and
sacrifice mean to you? You worship God not because someone else makes you or
because it’s the right thing to e seen doing. You do it because God has given
you abundant life. He totally embraces you as a flawed, hopeless, rejected
mistake-maker. And he offers his presence, beauty and purity to fix places in
you that are empty, dark, broken, damaged, and desperate. This is mercy. In
your shock and outrageous gratitude, you want to do anything God says. By
offering a sacrifice to God, you are showing that you have an attitude and a
willingness to do whatever it takes to obey him. Being a walking sacrifice,
means daily shedding your desires and going after God’s desires. Spend time
with him so you can understand what he’s like and what he wants for your life.
God wants you to look and think like him- and not like the world-because that’s
the best possible way to live. He’ll reshape everything inside you so that you
become more like him, but you have to let him in and give him the control.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small; line-height: 150%;">Genetics are a big part of
what makes you who you are. Whether you like it or not, you have inherited a
lot of traits from your parents. Maybe those are good traits-such as musical
abilities, great hair, athleticism, or a nice smile. And maybe you’ve inherited
a few things you’re not crazy about either, such as acne, big feet or a short
temper. It's so important that we know that as children of God, we inherit some
pretty amazing traits of his. Some of them we have to work toward (like
patience and self-control) and some may come a little easier (like kindness).
So when we are faced with hard times and are tempted to be afraid, to doubt,
and to act selfishly, we can know that those reactions are not from God. We can
instead claim the wonderful gifts that God gives to us; the ability to love,
kindness, peacefulness, joy, strength, courage, empathy, and self-control. What
others can you think of? </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; line-height: 115%;">One of the loveliest summations of what love is was written by, Arthur Gordon, in his great book, <b><i>Through Many Windows</i></b>:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Love…is a shining thing, like a golden fire or a silver mist. It comes very quietly, you can’t command it, but you can’t deny it, either. When it does come, you can’t quite see it or touch it, but you can feel it-inside of you and around you and the person you love. It changes you; it changes everything. Colors are brighter, music is sweeter, funny things are funnier. Ordinary speech won’t do-you grope for better ways to express how you feel. You read poetry. Maybe you even try to write it…. Oh, it’s so many little things. Waiting for the phone to ring, opening the box of flowers. It’s holding hands in a movie; it’s humming a sad little tune; it’s walking in the rain; it’s riding in the convertible with the wind in your hair. It’s the quarrelling and making up again. It’s that first drowsy thought I the morning and that last kiss at night.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Check out this very interesting write-up on <i>Love and Sex</i> by Joe L. Wheeler.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">THE STAGES OF LOVE</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">God designed us to take joy in natural stages, including the natural stages of love.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">His plan is simple but beautiful. First, we watch our parents: the love they show us is the love we shall pass on. Second, we experience the love of God, which becomes the catalyst for our philosophy of love. Third, we love the innocent and pure love of childhood-friendship in its most disinterested form. Then there is the love of adolescence. If we preserve our virginity until marriage (God’s plan for us), this teen period will be a time for developing some of life’s stronger friendships. In this time of seasoning, of gradually developing values to live by, there is no place for sexual passion, which can do nothing at this stage but destroy, disillusion, and rob us of one of God’s greatest gifts; coming to the marriage bed as virgins. Adolescence is followed by young adulthood, time for us to be blinded with the rapture of first love; time for us to compare our pasts, presents, and futures, in order to see if we are truly compatible; time for us to see if our families will be compatible-for we do indeed marry families; time for us to discuss God and church and how big a role we would allocate to them. Then and only then are we ready to think seriously about marriage and family. God designed the process to crescendo as the marriage day nears, culminating in a wedding without guilt, stigma, or regrets.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Today’s media leaders seem determined to destroy all of this. They sell us a bill of goods. They tell us, as did the serpent in Eden, that God lies, that instant gratification will make us gods. They tell us that modesty, virginity, purity and integrity are for fools. They tell us that minds and hearts and souls don’t matter at all; all that really matters is self-gratification, gusto. They tell us-over and over and over-that sex has nothing to do with friendship, love, respect, commitment, or being soul mates. Instead, they claim that sex is an acquired skill, like golf or hockey, and the more teachers we have in this respect, the better… There is no magic to love anymore. No hauntingly beautiful, gradual unfolding of the petals of love, leading up to the ultimate full flowering of marriage and a lifetime together. No, in today’s fiction and celluloid portrayals, there are no courtships. There are not even any preliminaries! Boy meets girl, man meets woman, and bam! If the chemistry is ripe-and it apparently almost always is-before the relationship is more than minutes old, before they so much as date awhile in order to see whether or not they even<i> like</i> each other, before they so much as hold hands, before they so much as experience the rapture of that first gentle kiss…before any of this, they are nude and in bed with each other! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> <span style="font-size: small;"> To succeed in life you must do these three things:</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"> <span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;">1) </span>Decide what’s important. The story is told of a family who moved to the country side to get away from the city. They decided to raise cattle so they bought a ranch. One day a friend visited them and asked what they’d named it. Dad said, ‘I wanted to call it The Flying-W, but Mom wanted to call it The Suzy-Q. One of our sons liked The Bar-J, but our daughter preferred The Lazy-Y. So we compromised and called it The Flying-W, Suzy-Q, Bar-J, Lazy-J Ranch.’ The friend asked, ‘How are your cattle doing?’ Dad replied, ‘We don’t have any. They didn’t survive the branding.’ Come on; decide what’s important to you!</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>

Too many of us are like the store owner who got so busy trying to keep the place clean that he forgot to open the front door. For those in business, the reason you’re in business is to serve customers and make a profit, not get distracted by secondary things. Base your life’s decisions on your priorities. And if you need help figuring out what they are, ask God: ‘For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.’</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;">

Most times, nobody else will. When tragedy struck his life, we read: ‘David encouraged himself in the Lord…’ (1<sup>st</sup> Samuel 30:6). You need to learn how to do that too. Jude writes: ‘…building up yourselves…praying in the Holy Ghost’ (Jude v.20). To succeed in life you must learn to encourage yourself, pray and build yourself up.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Remember, ‘For the Lord gives wisdom…’ Proverbs 2:6</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: small;">I'm sure almost everyone knows that very popular, evergreen Christmas song "White Christmas"..the one that goes..'I'm dreaming of a white Christmas"? yes, that one. It's definitely one of the greatest Christmas songs (to me at least). I know the phrase 'white Christmas' and the lyrics of the song imply a "snowy" Christmas, and I live in a country where we experience our own special version (a harmattan Christmas ) but that doesn't make me love the song any less. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC"; font-size: small;">This is why I dream of a white Christmas... To me, a white Christmas, is one where there is lots of love, joy and excitement. A Christmas where there are much more smiling faces than sad faces. A Christmas filled with a level of lightheartedness that is almost palpable...I can go on and on, but in a nutshell, that is what my white Christmas means to me.. So, I've come to realize that so many people dream of Christmas in a lot of different colours.. Let's take little Theresa for instance, </span><br>

As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. She also bought a packet of cookies. She sat down in an armchair, in the VIP room of the airport, to rest and read in peace. Beside the armchair where the packet of cookies lay, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and sta</span><span class="text_exposed_hide" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">rted reading. When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also.</span></div>
<span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}" style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
She felt irritated but said nothing. She just thought: “What a nerve! If I was in the mood I would punch him for daring!” For each cookie she took, the man took one too. This was infuriating her but she didn't want to cause a scene. When only one cookie remained, she thought: “ah... What would this abusive man do now?” Then, the man, taking the last cookie, divided it into half, giving her one half. Ah! That was too much! She was much too angry now! In a huff, she insulted the man, took her book, her things and stormed to the boarding place. When she sat down in her seat, inside the plane, she looked into her bag to take her eyeglasses, and, to her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched, unopened! She felt so ashamed!! She realized that she was wrong... She had forgotten that her cookies were in her bag. The man had shared his cookies with her, without feeling angered or bitter.</div>
<span class="text_exposed_show"><div style="text-align: justify;">
...while she had been very angry, thinking that she was sharing her cookies with him.</div>

And now there was no chance to explain herself...nor to apologize.”</div>

One of them was known as Sister Mathematical (SM),</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
and the other one was known as Sister Logical (SL).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SL: It's logical He wants to rape us.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes at the most! What can we do?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SM: It's not working.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only logical thing. He started to walk faster, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is worried about what has happened to Sister Logical.</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">No post in days. So sorry, I was just caught up in my very active and bubbling social life, you know, all the and shows and whatnot... Yeah Right! my social life is about as interesting as watching a bee buzzing around for hours. Sad? I know. I've had the same friends for years, most of whom are not more sociable than I am, I've hung out at the same places for years, lets see, the cinemas, my two favourite restaurants (both at Ikeja), Chinese food once in a while (parent's treat),...a lot of fast food(don't judge me)..and that's about it. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">I'm sure someone somewhere can relate to this... Bottom line, I basically live a humdrum life! Well, my dear friend, Oprah Winfrey says 'live your best life'..I've made up my mind, and I'm going to do just that. Enough buzzing around, I'm gonna start LIVING, in the best way God's grace and mercy allows me to. In the words of 'Mary Mary' I'm going to: live more, want more, dance more, laugh more, be a little smarter, </span><span style="color: black; font-size: small;"> work a little harder, </span><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">hug a little longer, and be a little stronger.. so help me God!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Job 8:20-21</span></div>
</div>
<div style="color: black; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">So, are you a smiler or a frowner? Do you naturally notice happy things, or are you a walking vessel of gloom and doom? How about laughing? Do you remember the last time you laughed until your sides hurt and your eyes watered and you begged for mercy? However long it's been, whatever your natural disposition, God promises to give you something to laugh about. He promises to walk right into your most depressing day and turn things around. God didn't put you here to see how awful he could make you feel. He put you here to glorify him and to enjoy life. So invite him into your day, and tell him you really need something to laugh about. Watch him do a miracle on your behalf. No heart is too hard; no day is too far gone, when the Maker of laughter keeps his promise...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">As Lagbaja would say: show me your '32'. </span></div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=2037499969538174431" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Something's wrong. The modern woman is on major overload. She struggles to find time in her day to swap hats among the numerous ones she wears: Wife, Caregiver, Employee, Mother, Taxi Driver, Volunteer, Teacher, Neighbour, Chef, Counselor, Friend. And she fights to catch her breath between all her duties, she is bombarded with conflicting messages every time she turns on the TV, fixes dinner, runs on her treadmill, or sits down to a meeting at work. These messages attempt to define where she fits in the world, as well as her relationships, her spirituality, and her identity as a woman. She struggles to feel beautiful when she's probably not the superfit woman the media portrays as ideal. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Intimacy eludes her, and the feeling of being unprotected overwhelms her in a generation ravaged by the breakdown of family. She wrestles with loneliness in an age that has lost the art of mentoring. She is confused in trying to figure out what it means to be truly feminine amidst the feminist messages screaming all around her. Purity of both body and mind is a battle for the married as well as the unmarried, and the younger as well as the older woman-when sex sells and the world treats it so casually. She finds physical, emotional and spiritual boundaries rare or nonexistent. Purpose is difficult to discover in a time that glorifies worldly success and downplays faithfulness to family, friends and God. And freedom is tough to find even for the woman who has fought to overcome past hurts and baggage. It's no wonder she struggles!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">"Love... is a shining thing, like a golden fire or a silver mist. It comes very quietly, you can't command it, but you can't deny it either. When it does come, you can't quite see it or touch it, but you can feel it - inside of you and around you and the person you love. It changes you; it changes everything. Colors are brighter, music is sweeter, funny things are funnier. Ordinary speech won't do - you grope for better ways to express how you feel. You read poetry. Maybe you even try to write it... Oh, it's so many little things. Waltzing in the dark, waiting for the phone to ring, opening the box of flowers. It's holding hands in a movie; it's humming a sad little tune; it's walking in the rain; it's riding in a convertible with the wind in your hair. it's the quarreling and making up again. it's that first drowsy thought in the morning and that last kiss at night." - Arthur Gordon.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Wow! Do people still love like this these days? I hope so, cos love really is a beautiful thing, and the best part is - GOD IS LOVE...need I say more? Hmm, I know when I'm ready (yep, I said it) my 'story' will read something like this...except the 'walking in the rain' part..cos I just don't get it. Lol.</span></span><br />

The miraculous bundle of talents, energy and potential that makes up 'you' must have a bigger purpose right? So, what on earth is it? Things start to make more sense when you change the question slightly. It's actually much more profound than ;What am I here for?' it's <span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">'</span><span style="background-color: #999999;">Who</span><span style="background-color: #999999;"> </span>am I here for?'.</span></div></div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
