On your mark, set...run!



Like play, like play, 2017 is reading. The changing dates pointing fingers at me, asking what I am doing with the avalanche of opportunities staring me in the face.


So I have begun by thinking, looking within and without. Particularly because Proverbs 19:2 has refused to leave me alone. It is dangerous to have zeal without knowledge, says the wisest man ever liveth. 

For me this year, it is not about the blind rush, I'm withdrawing from the rat race, I am choosing to discover the things that matter, focus on them and excel at them. Hopefully, 12 months down the line, I would be bold to say I fought a good fight.

Of course, I can hardly preempt what the year has in stock for me but I can focus on the author of time and choose to not be swayed by every wind that hits me. If my feet are firm, my hands steady and my eyes single, the lines should fall in pleasant places.

First comes my eternal love, then my companion on the journey called life- him and the home the Lord has given us. Then, this blog and other platforms it will please the Lord to send my way. 

Consistency is the watch word, backed with diligence and unwavering commitment. 
Ok, the vision is written- time to run with it!

What are your projections for the new year?

Epic Traffic Sunday for Ajah Residents

Anyone who lives around Ajah can testify to how difficult it was to get anywhere on Sunday. Many commuters who left home with plans to go to church turned back midway when it was clear they were going to get nowhere. The ones who attempted to brave it or were in too deep to make a U-turn ended up conducting their worship service in their cars. To think Sundays are meant to be traffic-free days kwa?! My hair stylist could hardly walk properly when I saw her later in the evening. According to her, she left Badore at after 9 in the morning and didn't get to VGC till well after 11. Naija tweet-sphere, especially  +GIDITRAFFIC  was rid with complaints and lamentations. The discomfort was heightened by the fuel situation. Hard earned fuel wasted in traffic on a Sunday morning. Yes, Ajah traffic has always been bad, but now its even worse, it is now a prayer point. For those of you residing in less problematic areas, say a prayer for us or dash us your gallon of petrol.

WHAT NO ONE TELLS THE BRIDE

You know how politicians and politically aware people eagerly await a new government’s 100 days in office? Publications highlighting the government’s achievements in the time frame, bearing assurances and fresh promises to silence wailing wailers flood the media. 100 days in office is usually a big deal. Since my husband is so into politics and so not into anniversaries, I decided to ignore our 3 months month-niversary and celebrate 100 days in marriage instead. Well, it didn’t quite work. And that’s perhaps where I should start. There are several things the bride does not hear before she becomes a wife. Many she is outrightly not told, others she is too happy or too busy to understand. Then she gets married and after the long awaited event, her ‘eyes clear’.  Sometimes, the giddy feeling lasts till the honeymoon is over, but when she returns home with her husband, reality hits. Even when the new wife has the most understanding husband and uninterested far-away in-...
