A cold Sunday Morning

Its a cold sunday morning and as usual PHCN has restored their yeye power. Feeling very motivated this morning and i think i may retain this tempo till the week runs out. I stretch and yawn then realize i am no more feeling as sleepy as i was when i woke up to observe fajr (Morning prayer).
As a muslim,you have to get up around 5-5:30 to pray no matter how tired you are.

That is the only way to thank your God for making you see the light of another day 😊.
 Also isn't it just in our DNA as Africans to be religious? We pray and fast all the time like we killed Jesus christ ..but fail to act right or do the right thing so that things can take its natural course. Enough of my wandering thoughts as i am jolted back to my surroundings with the very loud noise of my neighbours generator. You see this is my third month living here and i do not think i could ever get used to it. Sounds like the size for a factory...but hey,this is Naija. Where everyone is either too selfish to care or too frustrated with their problems to notice your own discomfort.
 Its a sunday Morning and i still get no real rest or at least good early morning meditation. I think about how we die like chickens everyday. Living in Nigeria is like sitting on a time-bomb..it can go off anytime and poof...your life is over. So sad!

I wonder how we do it? We are so used to suffering and smilng like the great Legend Fela said. He sang then in the 70's about this and 2018, still no steady electricity power or any feasible plan by our so called RULERS..( i call them rulers cos they do and undo with no regards for our feelings and are ) only reasonable when ELECTIONS are near and approaching.
I think about how all young ones all wanna run away to another man's land all the time. Its showing also that we have lost almost all our talents and brilliance to developed countries. I never want to go into politics but somehow i end up there. It just irks me so much that a country that is so blessed both with good weather/climate, abundance of natural resources and incredibly smart and intelligent people is living like this. The last pitiful incident was the trailer explosion at Otedola again killing over 140 people. You see in Nigeria we die stupid avoidable deaths. Deaths that could have been avoided...and why is this? CORRUPTION!
I am sorry i sound so bitter but just look at how so many lives were taken forcibly from them on that friday(just two weeks back) and no one has come out to demand from govt why the so called Tankers and trailers still prowl during d day. So u see..Nigerians themselves do not like ourselves. We keep letting them treat us like shit while we kiss our Pastors and Imams asses . Who i must say by d way endorse and pray for this THIEVES. Its a sad sad occurence that must stop..if only we can get our faces from far under these so called RELIGIOUS CLERICS butts where it is stuck so that we can live better lives and stop EXISTING. Our future generations need us. Afterall we cannot continue to live in fear for our lives...and we all know all GREAT things in life is on the otherside of FEAR if u can but only seize d bull by the horns.
I remember when i started this blog ...i really wanted to help people deal with whatever is bothering them...esp women. Some things just need to be said. Have a lovely day ahead. Mine is just getting started.

WHAT NO ONE IS REALLY SAYING ABOUT HAVING A BABY

  As an African , many times than we can keep count.  we hear our parents say when are you giving me a baby ?.  I want a grand daughter or a grand son . I am getting older . I want to see them before I die but it’s not only because of them we go ahead to have kids . We have kids to fulfill some righteous notion that we also can be parents. Some of us do because of our religion. While some are parents by mistakes , many are parents by choice . Why? Cos why not really ? Unless of cos you think of all what happens to your sex life and your really cool single life when you have a baby 😂 I can think of one million reasons to not have a kid and we still think of a thousand and one reasons to have one . Which are kids are so adorable as babies as well as a blessing and it’s really cute to have a mini me of yourself or your husband. But what does it really mean to have one .  As a woman, your body is never the same after childbirth .  I have read countless posts about ...

DEPRESSION - What it is and how to overcome it!

Depression drains your energy , hope , and drive , making it difficult to take the steps that will help you to feel better. But while overcoming depression isn’t quick or easy, it’s far from impossible . You can’t just will yourself to “snap out of it,” but you do have more control than you realize—even if your depression is severe and stubbornly persistent. The key is to start small and build from there. Feeling better takes time, but you can get there by making positive choices for yourself each day. I know it's still considered a taboo to discuss depression in some communities or even want to believe that it exists and so they do not talk about it. For example, the black/african community and even the Asian community. We use words like “man up” “be a man” “how can you be depressed? afterall you have a good job, home and family..What else do you want ? but history has shown us that this successful people are more susceptible to take their own lives first. In Asia where depre...

The V Dilemma

Yes I am 30 plus and I have never had sex. Don't know why everyone finds that so hard to believe. Like I am supposed to be lying about something that serious or true. Also, why do i have to lie or say the truth. It is what it is. A fact. It's neither the truth nor a lie.. Guess somethings' are just better left unsaid. This is why I never tell anyone anymore that I am a V cos then they ask u stupid questions. I am a virgin not naive or stupid. Also, some things just require u having a brain and making use of it. I am not stupid. I know that in this decade and century, it's very hard being a virgin and keeping a long lasting relationship. Most of the so called church and mosque brothers do not even believe you when they know because they do not practice what they preach nor what the holy books tell us. I chose to remain one cos I did not want to have deal with mood swings or weight swings that pills bring and unwanted pregnancies. If I was going to go through all this...
