The Royal Heart In the bustling city of Lagos, Nigeria, 25-year-old Adesuwa "Suwa" Hassan lived a humble life. She worked as a librarian at a local library and spent her free time volunteering at a nearby orphanage. One fateful evening, while attending a charity gala, Suwa locked eyes with the handsome Prince Tijani "TJ" Oyewole of the ancient Kingdom of Ibadan. TJ was immediately smitten with Suwa's intelligence, kindness, and striking beauty. As fate would have it, Suwa and TJ kept running into each other at various charity events and social gatherings. Their conversations flowed effortlessly, and Suwa found herself falling deeply in love with the charming prince. However, their social differences and the scrutiny of the royal family threatened to tear them apart. TJ's parents, the king and queen, insisted that he marry a woman of royal blood to secure the kingdom's future. Determined to be with Suwa, TJ proposed a bold plan: he would renounce his royal title and build a new life with Suwa in Lagos. Suwa, overwhelmed with emotion, accepted his proposal. Together, they faced the challenges of building a new life, free from the constraints of royal protocol. Suwa's love and support gave TJ the courage to forge his own path, and he eventually became a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist. As they looked into each other's eyes, Suwa knew that she had found her true prince, and TJ knew that he had found his queen. THE END

Feeding someone and announcing it to world doesn't make you a philanthropist.

I lost over $38-billion in cash and 35% of Amazon to my ex-wîfe, MacKenzie. I was worth about $76-billion by then." __ Jeff Bezos "I can nēver make the mîstake of getting married again. I was married to my ex-wîfe Mackenzie for over 25-years but she just woke up one day and told me that she was already tired of our borîng marriage and she wanted a dîvorce. And when I asked her if there was anything I could do to change her mind, she told me that if I could give her half of my $76-billion fortune and 50% of the shares in my company, Amazon, she'd consider staying. I begged her not to file for a dîvorce but she still went ahead to file for the dîvorce. Then I realized that if I gave her the half of my wealth she requested for, she'll still file a dîvorce afterwards and take half of what I'll be left with so I let her do it. When we got to coûrt, my attõrney was able to give her just half of my cash and 35% of Amazon. If she could do this to me after 25 years of marrîage, it only means marriage isn't mēant for men. I'll never get married again because I'm not a women's empowerment agency. ~ Jeff Bezos Jeff Bezos dîvorce with his ex-wîfe, MacKenzie has been ranked the second most expensive dîvorce of all time as the multi-biollionaire paid his wife over $38-billion in cash and gave her 35% of his company Amazon. According to Forbes, MacKenzie Scott's present net worth is estimated to be around $43.6 billion, making her one of the richest women in the world. After the divorce in 2019, she received approximately 4% of Amazon's outstanding shares, which translated to around 35% of Bezos' Amazon stake at the time. This, combined with the $38 billion cash settlement, has contributed to her substantial net worth. MacKenzie has since become a prominent philanthropist, donating billions to various charitable causes and organizations, including educational institutions, healthcare organizations, and social justice initiatives.

Today in Church History: November 2, 1783 - Robert Raikes’ Sunday School Movement Gains Momentum J Neil Daniel On this day in 1783, Robert Raikes, an English philanthropist and newspaper publisher, published a letter in the Gloucester Journal celebrating the success of his Sunday schools. His letter was soon seen by William Fox, a Baptist philanthropist, who quickly grasped the significance of Raikes’ work. Inspired by Raikes’ example, Fox advocated for a national Sunday school movement, which would soon spread throughout England and, ultimately, across the globe. Raikes’ initiative came in response to the social problems he observed in his community, particularly among working-class children who were left idle and often engaged in mischief on Sundays, the only day many were free from work. His solution was simple yet profound: offer these children an education focused on reading, morality, and religious instruction. These Sunday schools not only taught literacy but also imparted Christian values, aiming to shape both mind and character. The success Raikes experienced in Gloucester caught national attention, and Fox’s promotion helped transform Sunday schools into a widespread movement. By 1831, over a million children in Great Britain were attending Sunday school, marking a transformative moment in the Church’s commitment to education and social reform. Raikes’ efforts are often credited as the beginning of the modern Sunday school movement, which continues to impact lives around the world today.
