Relationship
Simple gestures for saying ‘I Love You’ without uttering a word (final part)
If you are in a new relationship, excitedly planning on tying the knot, or have been married for over a decade or so, keeping the flame of love at its right place is very much important to keep the intimacy for a lifetime.
But as time passes by, either party surely feels like all their surprise gestures to say I love you, are no longer working or their minds tend to scream for some help from the love and relationship experts.
Here are some tips to resurrect a dying relationship.
6. Take her on an unexpected dinner date
Organise a surprise special date for your lovely partner. You can choose the most sentimental restaurant for both of you and rent the whole place to hype up the moment. Do it on a normal day and you will witness how priceless it is to see her most contagious smile. Remember that the quality of time you spend with her is much more important than the quantity.
7. Send your partner a hand-written love letter or a poem
Bringing back the traditional could be the most romantic thing you could do for love. And that includes writing a hand-written love letter or a poem for your awesome lady. Some partners can make simple writing into a whole book made with love. Having your partner’s love letters or notes with you could bring out the joy in their hearts.
8. Compliment your partner on random moments
You will not know the prize of complimenting your partner unless you do it on random moments. Therefore, cultivate the habit of telling how lovely he or she is even in between your deep conversation, in the middle of your dinner date or while walking down the streets together.
And once you consider doing this simple yet sweet gesture, expect to see the sweetest smiles on your partner’s face on those random moments!
9. Always remember the little details told you
Girls definitely talk a lot about everything under the sun, while boys get easily irritated with this behavior, men consider it as the most romantic storytelling event on their lives.
And if you are really head over heels to your lady, always listen to whatever she is saying no matter what.
Not just that, always keep in mind even the little details she keeps on talking about like her favorite nail polish color, what irritates her the most, her favourite month or season, her favorite haircut, and so on and so forth.
10. Send your partner gifts
Sending over some gifts is one of the gestures of love. Surprise your partner by sending over some token of gifts to him or her at work, class or even on a random day. In that way, you are also sending her a message about your endless love and unparalleled affection to her.

Aries
You are a warrior by nature, try to balance out your own needs to ensure you do not give all of yourself to another. Give yourself some love, too!
Taurus
Do not fret, the secrets being hidden are not bad and are beneficial to your future. In fact, you will be super happy when they are revealed. Then, you can make strategic moves forward.
Gemini
Your friendship circle is evolving, allowing you to meet new people who will become your best buds over time. Embrace the rare chance to connect and engage with others you meet now.
Cancer
Home is where your heart is this week. And the more reason for you to start making yourself feel cozier in your space now. Treat yourself to a few new items to decorate and spruce up your pad to get in the spring spirit. Add fresh.
Leo
Lean into your higher mind and vibe. This will give you the ultimate opportunity to achieve personal fulfillment and spiritual growth over the next few months. Doing so will encourage you to reach new personal heights.

Sagittarius
It is time to get creative! This means busting out your drawing board, paintbrushes and colour palette to make art. Whether it is for professional endeavours or for pleasure, you will be inspired to bring your passions to light
Capricorn
Work is becoming very chaotic at the moment and requires all of your time, but you have the chance to balance out your vibe and not focus on professional endeavours. Find your chill spot and lean into self-care.
Aquarius
You are feeling extra chatty and more able to engage with friends. Word of advice: think before you speak to avoid conflict with others.
Pisces
This week gives you the chance to restart, reboot and get motivated to take on new opportunities. The question is: Are you ready now?
Attention-Deficit or Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is often mistaken for laziness or indiscipline. In consulting rooms across Accra and in reports from school teachers, the pattern repeats: children who are bright but forgetful, parents who feel helpless, teachers who see incompleteness.
Research is clear-Barkley (2015) and others describe ADHD as a difference in the brain’s regulation of alertness, impulse and working memory, not a lack of effort.
The family’s role begins with structure. Regular sleep, predictable meal and homework times, and a simple visual list (uniform → books → water → corridor) provide the external scaffolding these children need. Praise what is completed—“You opened the book and wrote the first sentence”-instead of rebuking what is missing.
Schools can help by seating the child front-row and centre, giving short written plus verbal instructions, allowing brief movement breaks, using quiet nonverbal cues and, where possible, grading effort and method as well as neatness. These adjustments reduce conflict and raise submission rates without lowering standards.
Couples and caregivers should share roles: one grounds, one pivots, and both protect rest. Shame-“bad parenting, bad child”-needs replacing with fact: different wiring, needs scaffolding.
Outcomes improve not by promises of perfection but by daily routines, clear limits and warmed connection. One homework slot kept, one instruction chunked, one calm repair after blurting-these small wins shift the family climate and let the child be seen beyond the label.
