The Eternal Journey
In the Genesis of time, when the cosmos was but a whispered thought and chaos reigned, a divine breath brought forth light, separating day from night, and land from sea. Life burst forth in vibrant hues, culminating in humanity, formed in the very image of the Creator. This pristine world was a testament to perfect order and boundless love, a sanctuary where the first humans walked in harmony with their Maker. But innocence, once shattered by disobedience, cast a long shadow, leading to a profound disconnection and the beginning of humanity's long, arduous journey of exile and longing.

Six years ago, while in Iseyin at Ebedi Writers’ Residency, I investigated the erosion of Yoruba cultural practices. As a columnist for Leadership Newspapers in Abuja, my findings were published under the title "Embers of a Dying Culture."

Echoes of Absence.
In a TikTok video I recently watched, an amputee was visibly distressed as her leg trembled uncontrollably. The comments section provided insight into her experience which was described as Phantom pain. Her brain and nerves were seemingly “remembering” the lost limb. This concept resonated with me deeply, as it drew parallels to emotional pain and grief—particularly the kind we feel when mourning the loss of loved ones.

Sweet Lemonade
I woke up to the stillness of the night, the clock reading a few minutes past 3 a.m. The world outside was silent, yet my mind buzzed with wakefulness. After a brief trip to ease myself, I returned to bed, hoping for sleepto reclaim me. But as the minutes stretched into an hour, I surrendered to my restlessness and reached for my phone. Scrolling aimlessly, I stumbled upon an account I follow on a social media platform- a storyteller who shares uplifting tales of humanity's kindness and resilience

To my missing piece.
My Dearest Love, It has been twenty long years since you left this world, and yet, not one day has passed without your memory haunting the chambers of my heart. I sit here tonight, pen trembling in my hand, as I pour out the words that have been trapped within me for a decade. Words I could not speak to you as you lay dying. Words I was forbidden from whispering into your ear as you took your last breath. Words I was denied the chance to say when they kept me from seeing your lifeless body, as if even in death, they sought to sever the bond we shared. But they couldn't. They never could. And they never will.

A SECOND CHANCE
I remember vividly last summer, I was strolling down the street on an ordinary day when I saw a young woman, radiant and full of life, walk past me wearing a simple T-shirt with a powerful statement emblazoned across the front. "I serve a God of second chance."

TomTom, the iconic Nigerian menthol candy produced by Cadbury Nigeria since the 1970s, holds a special place in many hearts for its strong menthol flavour and distinctive black-and-white oval design. Known for its refreshing properties, it soothes sore throats, clears nasal congestion, and freshens breath. Each pack typically contains 40 individually wrapped candies, making it a convenient companion for work or travel.

Bruised Knee
I recently had a dream about a bruised knee, in that dream I knew the knee I saw wasn’t mine but I was still very curious about what that dream could possibly mean. Dreams are highly personal and subjective, and their interpretation can vary widely depending on the individual’s experiences, emotions, and subconscious mind. Therefore, the significance of a dream about a bruised knee may vary from person to person.
