When my Love was Whole. Wednesday, June 1st 2022. Image https://unsplash.com/photos/E8H76nY1v6Q "My dear, Lola. I write this to inform you of the daunting task I will be faced with the moment I leave our home." "First, I'd like to thank you, Lola, for bringing light to my dark journey. I was frail, destitute and steeped in the dangers of drugs and alcohol. *Aah, It was just like yesterday, my Love*. When the times were sweet and rosy. An encounter that turned my life around,…
The Night we Met. Thursday, June 2nd 2022. It was a cold, and dark night. I'd just left the restaurant where I worked after leaving school. There I was alone at the edge of the road waiting for a taxi to take me home. As I remember, I was impatiently glancing at my watch every ten second. (*It's something I do whenever I get anxious about anything*). So, I decided to wait it out a couple minutes longer, but the cars only drove past me as quickly as they came. At that point,…
Looking forward to an Enthralling summer. Friday, June 3rd 2022. Image https://unsplash.com/photos/SYx3UCHZJlo My month started really slowly. For days I've thought of different things I'd like to venture into. Like a day job, or anything of the sort. However, recent events made me to second guess the availability of some 9-5's. If I'm to make this month productive for me, I'll have to think hard on what it is I want. Perhaps, I'll be able to figure something out before the…
Until it happens to you... Saturday, June 4th 2022. Image https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/conflict-or-disagreement-concept-men-and-women-quarreling-bickering-arguing-shouting-gm1311750189-400756299 I thought hard about whether I should write today or not. In truth, I didn't want to write. Something happened at dusk; which was a couple hours ago, and it made me worry, to say the least. You might ask, what happened that spoiled my mood? I'll just say it the way it is. My…
Help! I lost myself. Again! Sunday, June 5th 2022. This post is a follow up to the one I wrote about yesterday. In that post I shared about a concern of mine. It basically centered upon the current state of affairs happening around me. ***Heavy sigh!*** What can I say? 🥺 I am torn. Somehow, I feel like I've lost myself. AGAIN! The world has gone Mad, like Mr. @Olasquare said once... The killings today saddened me. But what little thing I knew of it became overwhelmed by a…
Throwing the guilt out the window. Monday, June 13th 2022. Journal 001. The wake of recent events During the past week I wallowed in despair, guilt, and regret. Some things have a way of disturbing the stillness you tried so hard to protect - like, after doing whatever you can to stay sane; Life throws a punch and before you know it you've fallen flat on your back. I wasn't sure I'd return, because I never wanted to write here anymore. In a way, i stopped writing altogether.…
Shedding misplaced Sentiments. Wednesday, June 15th 2022. Image https://unsplash.com/photos/JD0D-lReHFE Hello good folks. How did your day go? Mine was a mix of dullness, and excitement. Especially, when I decided to engage a couple of persons on a little talk. See, it had to do with the current situation of the country. Election is around the corner, although i would *sooner* it gets done and over with, still it is crucial i not get ahead of ourselves. Lol Okay, so, I…
I am back, finally. God, it seems like I've been away forever. So much to talk about. So much to do. How has everyone of you faired these past few days? Brilliantly, I presume? Let's get to it, then. :D
A little pain here, a little gain there. Monday, June 27th 2022. The last couple of weeks were filled with plenty of uneventful activities. I was rather stuck, psychologically, without an objective or drive to get more out of life. Out of my life. The experience was painful. I never thought there'd come a time where I wouldn't want to do the things I love. Writing, or in this case, journalling for many can be said to be therapeutic, and I reckon this to be true especially…
