Life matters

"Why Me? God!  I watched in silence and so much sympathy as her sobbing turned near hysterical, some might even consider it dramatic, the tears streamed down her face in such a fast pace, you would think they were in a competition of 'which drops first'. It had been like that for a while and it was very well expected since she was robbed of her considerable essentials, her laptop and her phones were all gone, she probably had very important information stored on them, I actually felt like I could feel her pain. But she didn't lose a loved one, no, which is why some people might have started to think her non-stop sobbing, is too dramatic. Personally, I had no issue with her crying, but those lines though, she kept repeating them and, they started to really irk me. "Why Me? Why Me?"  REALLY? Bae, why not you?  Do you know that, 'Why ME?' means you'd prefer it happened to someone else?  Do you know that, another way to say 'Why me?', is to sa

Abraham, Sarah and Hagar - A pot mix of mess My Dad said something in one of the meetings we held recently, he said when one time he was contemplating taking a particular step, after he had prayed concerning a matter and he made no headway, he felt that taking this step was going to be his only way out. God asked him; " Do you think I can't do this thing for you? " he answered in his heart. "God, I know you can do it, it's just that your own takes time" It sounded funny, because most of us could relate with it. And partly it's the truth:  It can be very hard to wait on God because His timing is really very different from ours. But the reason is: He is working with His plan, not ours.  And we must train ourselves to work at his own pace, if not we'd get frustrated at how long he's taking and it may make us try to rush past him, and then we will end up making the mother of all messes. That's how I can describe the mess Abraham made by sleeping

 "Gimme a Break?" - please don't! Writers should never not write If you've started to write, then you can't afford too long a pause. I'm totally talking from experience so you can take it or leave it. It was at first a compulsory break, I lost my phone, which was my writing tool. "It's not going to be a big deal, all I have to do is continue to write after I get my phone back......" So I thought, but it didn't quite work like that 😁 You can't simply expect to snap back into writing after a long break, I thought I could. But I'd lost the fervor, I found it so hard to get back to the routine. Undisciplined me, I would promise to write and then I would not write, but of course, there were things to blame it on, I didn't feel inspired to write bla bla bla. And I'm sincerely telling myself now, that I was just being undetermined (and that's me trying to avoid calling myself 'Lazy') It works this way with a lot of thing

Gym Hard "Brother Yinka! Oya let's go o" Femi had pushed the door to his brother's room open. Now, he was rapping at it and calling at the same time. 'Oh Lord Jesus! What's this noise that will not allow me to enjoy my sleep now?' Bro Yinka asked subconsciously as he still struggled to remain asleep, but alas, he'd already woken up. "Mtchew, Ohhhh" he grumbled and hissed to himself, recognizing his little brother's voice. "Go where?" he asked groggily as he stretched on the bed, his shirt lifting up to reveal his ripped muscles as Femi eyed him with just a little bit of envy. "To the gym now, Bro, sheybi I told you to get ready by 5am, this is already 5:30, please, stand up and let us go" Femi replied impatiently. "Ehn, but I don't understand this your sudden passion for gyming o, I simply don't get it, I've not been able to sleep and enjoy it since you started this thing. You won't even let

Unwanted Proposition "Hey Gift, How far na?" (How are you), Tina strolled into the room. "I'm fine..." Gift replied her friend absentmindedly and Tina noticed, but she decided to ignore her friend's 'downing' spirit, she had great news for Gift. "Guess what!" "What?" Gift asked in a bored kind of way. she was really in no mood for games, neither did she think she was interested in what Tina had to say (she only put up with her most of the time). But Tina will always ignore her obvious disinterest. "I got someone for you.." She said excitedly. Gift had absolutely no idea what Tina was going on about, 'What was Tina talking about? Someone for her?! Our lady continued though, "This man is fine and riiich" she dragged out the 'rich'. Now, Gift was just plain confused "And trust me, he'd give you anything, I mean, every single thing you want..." She droned on as she gesticulated with

So what, if I don't dance "I didn't enjoy the Praise and Worship session today, the drummer was just playing what I don't understand, even the keyboardist, I don't even know what to say about the guitarist, maybe those instrumentalists all had a meeting to mess up today..... Infact, I did not just enjoy it ni, bla bla bla, this that this" Ehn, I know you can already tell that I'm about to do some ranting, and maybe you're thinking I'm here to trash instrumentalists, no no no, I'm all about you today, yes, YOU! What's your problem exactly? You don't like the way the instrumentalists played abi, and that's why you were just standing and looking, watching as if it was a show, a dry show, set up for you, you didn't even attempt to shake your body at all, you were that unimpressed, as if they were meant to impress you in the first place. But I have a question to ask you o, "ehn..... is it the instrumentalists you'd be dancin
