THIS THING CALLED PAIN

One of the hardest things in life to do is to get rid of something you have over the years become attached to. Materially, I can bet that many of us currently have or at least had, at some point in time, something that they had become very fond of. Still, there could be a person that we are or were at some point in time fond off. For some it worked to their advantage as it brought forth their heart’s desire. For others, well... the story doesn’t end quite well and they would rather not even mention it or sense a hint of it. Nevertheless, no matter how young or old you may be, there’s always something or someone your heart may never quite release completely. As to why, it could be the impact that it or they brought in to your life. The difference, the change that you probably never imagined you would ever experience. There’s this one thing however, that has suddenly been embraced by many who don’t even realize it’s killing them faster than they think. And for some, though they kn

THE MIRROR YOU SEE THROUGH & WHAT IT REFLECTS

Mirror mirror on the wall who’s the fairest of them all? You tell me… prepare to be surprised by the answer as we go along. It’s been a while since I actually sat down to jot down my thoughts; I can’t really state a specific reason to it… I guess like most people do at some point in their lives, they take time out of the usual to refresh themselves, think through their lives and spend time restructuring what seemingly was going down the drain- Its part of life. There are days everything seems to be looking up, others simply suck the life out of you and you are consumed in a dark cloud with nothing to look forward to. The good thing though is that it was a season; seasons come and go, you can’t lodge in a dark tunnel forever, if you still have some little faith in you, then there’s no doubt you will not settle for less than wanting to wake up from the nightmare into a glorious dawn. I went through the tunnel and now I am out of it, better, stronger, wiser and a totally chan

EPISTLES OF A MISSIONARY KID (The Summary –Part 1)

Four months down the road… I am excited. Thoroughly! I am actually making it through this season of my life. 2013, as one of my friends shared is for me a year of new beginnings. Every aspect of my life has changed. For some reason it feels more like a movie script. God inscribed season one, finished, and now He as at work writing season two (watch this space) At the beginning of it I was certain I wouldn’t make it past month one. Being in a foreign country, my mind was and still is sometimes preoccupied with thoughts of boarding the next plane and flying back home. (I even put aside a jar where I save money to pay for a return ticket). If you ask me why, I’m not too sure how I’d answer you, if at all I’d open my mouth to- I think I’d just smile, hoping you’d figure it out by yourself. The life within the unknown is one that gives you two options: one is to make the best of it. Two is to sit down and grumble, complain and believing an angel will come from heaven with good t

AFTER THE UPSHOT WHAT NEXT?

Times like these, no words can be uttered at all, even if I wanted to. I look intently at the millions of women (and men) who for one reason or another have had their hearts broken. Shuttered into pieces by what once used to bring them joy, hope and reason for living. It’s a world full of broken hearts, and if you don’t believe me, you probably need to turn your radio up and listen to the hits of today. Everyone seems to be singing of broken hearts like it’s a festive season incorporated in the calendar. There’s consolation from every artist you can think of and one way or another, we find ourselves soaked into the lyrics of the song coz as many say, “it speaks to me.” The aftermath of music as a remedy to forget it all is this: you will listen to it for some minutes but it won’t change the damage on the inside. You will request it all the time there’s a request show or better still download it so you can blast it for all to hear on replay. Question from others though will be,
