More than a million dollar article. In the blink of an eye, we are already in the sixth month of the year and I am wondering how fast this generation will pass at the rate at which time is moving, or does it look slow to you? Time looks too fast to some humans while some feel like it is slow, there is no crime in having different perspectives about time, and what I have understand is that; Every human loves to remain in the beautiful moments of their lives and when that time…
Beauty from the slum. The arrival of Gwen into the world brought joy to the heart of many people, why wouldn't it bring happiness? Her parents were in their fifties, they gave up on having a child but Mrs. Arnold got pregnant miraculously. The pregnancy raised lots of unanswered questions, even doctors couldn't defend science because she already reached menopause. She was placed under high care because her organs weren't strong enough for the pregnancy stress but the joy of…
Help your children define their relationship with people. Helping your children define their relationship with people is something I think is very important, I read an article over the night about a man who was abusing kids in his neighborhood and I am glad he was caught. He is a jovial person and no one suspected him because he is kind and has a good relationship with people including kids in his environment. Children's brains are very fragile and it is one of the reasons…
A reflection of these songs on me. Music is a lot of things for me, it means life. I have many times referred to some musicians as seers because it surprises me to listen to 10 years old music and still find it relevant to the things happening in my life or even in the world today. Music has unbelievably seen through the hearts of many without having an eye, it has touched minds and souls without having a hand, and its ability to transform into what you need such as…

My fears are my biggest motivation. ***I really don't have any fears,*** that's the lie I tell whenever I went for an interview during my job hunting days. Fears are been handled like a taboo, they relate it as something you shouldn't have. Interviewers feel like you are perfect when you tell them you don't have fears, the real questions should be what are your fears, and how do you intend to tackle them? This would make the interviewee feel at ease to open up but that's not…
Quality Engagement gave me genuine friend across the globe. Blogging made has made a huge difference in my life and it isn't just about writing and earning, it has given me the privilege to travel across the globe which is something you barely find on many platforms out there. Traveling across the globe doesn't mean I have crossed borders and it means that at the same time because I have met friends who make me feel like I have seen the whole world. Nigeria has been placed…
If I was Santa for a day... Who wouldn't want to embrace the opportunity to be Santa for a day, it would be a perfect opportunity for me to touch lives more than I am doing. Giving is something I love to do even though it might not be much but I won't hesitate to help as long as I have the opportunity to do so. I am so passionate about helping because of how much help I have received while growing up, help is not easy to come by today so if you have the privilege to do it,…
Isn't it too early to admit defeat? Getting the privilege to live again is a huge opportunity for not just me but every human out there, who wouldn't want to live the life of someone wealthy, famous, and successful? A lot of us wouldn't hesitate to jump on the opportunity to be someone else if we had the opportunity to live again, we are free to choose and as much as I would love to be someone else if I had the chance to live again, I will still choose my life over and over…
Just about me. It was a beautiful Sunday, I didn't believe that I was stuck to Kdrama all day. The previous week hasn't been the best for me, I lost motivation to write not because of the market condition but there wasn't this will to write. I wasn't completely offline, the motivation to write wasn't stable so I write when in the mood and engage with other things when the mood is gone. There wasn't much to share today so I made up my mind to share some questions I answered…
The BUT in the BeaUTy of life. "**Life is beautiful**" *is the only quote that annoys Daniel the most even as a kid, I don't blame him because of what he has been through in life*. ***Would you have said life is beautiful if you are in shoes?*** Daniel was born without a silver spoon, his parents were poor and not educated. They lived in one of the worse places in the city and growing up was quite difficult for him, he sometimes cursed the day he came into the world. He was…
We can achieve more when United. Unity is the key to achieving success, it is easier to work together and achieve success with people who have the same goal. Many people do not understand the power of unity, in it resides love and peace. I have said times without numbers that unity is the major thing missing in the world, the world would have been a better place if we are all united. We would have achieved more than what the world looks like now if we have combined efforts…
Happy Nature Photography Day. Nature made today pretty tight, the rain drizzled almost throughout the day probably because today is a special day for nature. Don't mind my joke, it is June and we should expect more rain during this time of year. **Did I mention that today is a special day for nature earlier?** Yes, I did because that's what it is. Every 15th of June is the "**nature photography day**", I had something different in mind for today as a nature lover but the…
Bullying; a killer that must be taken down. My concern with bullying is that not everyone that experiences it has been able to fight through it, the saddest part of it is that a lot of people's life has ended as a result of being a victim of bullying. I really don't know what people derive from bullying others, some do it to earn respect, it is fun to some people, some use it to create fear in the mind of their victims, and so on. It doesn't make sense to me why a human…
Time wasting is deadlier than wasting money. **Time and money are two human resources that can't be overlooked, they are among the most important resources every human needs in the world today. Time is natural while money isn't, we all can make money but we can't time.** I have many times thought about the possibility of tampering with time which seems to be impossible, it could have been human's biggest invention. I remembered watching a movie where there was a machine that…
I became a fool for being my brother's keeper. This is definitely not an interesting experience but the lesson learned wasn't a thing I would do away with as long as I am alive, experience becomes the best teacher only when you hold on to the lessons dearly. I love giving opportunities when I have them in my care, I have always believed in lifting people while I am also trying to become successful in life. I once mentioned my job as a supervisor in my previous workplace, I…
You are a father for many reasons. Today is the International father's day and I celebrate with all the fathers across the globe, it is great to see people taking the father's Day celebration seriously because sometimes I don't even know the day is been celebrated but seeing lots of people post their father's picture; celebrating them means a lot to fathers out there. **I have seen lots of posts about Father's Day and I want to share a piece of what's running in my mind.**…
The agony of an ambitious girl. Prisha happens to be the only daughter in the Khan family, she is loved by her brother. Every guy in the neighborhood is always scared of approaching her, no one would dare to disturb her after what her brother did to a guy who was threatening her for relationship sake. She is the last child of the family but doesn't get satisfied with the attention her dad gives her, she always wants to be like the boys. My Khan is in his sixties but still…
Is education really a scam? The slang **"Education is a scam"** is a trend among many youths today because of the false orientation we have about education, we have been made to believe that education is the only path to success in the world which isn't true. ***When I was younger, the idea was that immediately after you finish school, you will get a job and start living a fulfilled life. When I started understanding what life means, I stopped dreaming and studied with the…
Welcome to Lagos, a city that gives you all. Lagos is a beautiful city even though there are some parts of it that I don't find attractive, every city has that one place you don't want to visit for some reason. It could be due to insecurity, a dirty environment, and others. I have lived in Lagos all my life and I can tell you a few things about the City, it is one of the best places you can be in Nigeria. Living in four different parts of the city has made had different…
I woke up to be a female. Waking up to be an opposite gender is something weird and I can guarantee that it would drive me silly for hours because it is incomprehensible to sleep as a male and wake up as a female. Honestly, it is not something that I would love to experience; adapting to such new life would bring lots of inconvenience to me but why do I have to be bothered when it would only last for 24hrs. I admire the female gender very well, it is really not easy to be a…
I coincidentally became a joker. Staying too much in the traffic is one thing you must be used to if you are a Lagosians, the impact it has on our mental health is something else. I usually have lots of good and bad experiences I remember how tired I use to get when returning home from work, music and fresh air kept me alive then, I don't get on the bus when the seats by the window sides are occupied; that has been a tradition for me. On that day, we were stuck in traffic as…
My fingers does the talking better. Writing is something everyone does but it means more to a lot of people than it is to others, there is a lot attached to the word "more" regarding writing. It is just a regular thing to some people, it is a profession while it is just a hobby to some humans. I have many times referred to my hands as my voice, I write more words than I speak to people. This lifestyle was expected to be a boring one but it turned out to be something I enjoy…
There is more to POSSIBILITY than just MINDSET. The fear of impossibility is not a terrible thing, the idea builds up as a result of setting bigger targets or having more expectations than we can handle. I see this as a normal feeling but allowing it to dominate your thoughts is what I don't find okay because it automatically steals from you the energy or motivation to press further with that thing you find impossible. A lot of things are not possible and I find it annoying…
Rant about traditions inconveniencing people. On the 28th of July 2022, a traditional festival was observed in the town where I live, it is usually a big celebration for the indigenes of the town but it was not fun for visitors like myself. It is the sixth year I have known this festival but I still do not understand its importance, I respect the fact that the people still practice and cherish their tradition but the fact that it inconveniences the people doesn't make me…
Their thoughts about me don't define me. I have grown to understand that you can't satisfy people no matter how much you try to do so, they will always have one or two unfavorable things to say about you; things that you wouldn't expect them to say about you just because of how much you have related with them. Since I am used to it, it doesn't baffle me anymore what some set of people think about me. I used the word "set" because there are times when what someone thinks…
