A THANKFUL HEART


From January to December, We had so many trials, Many tribulations come our ways, Yet we are still standing, Thousand of souls were lost, Millions of disasters here and there, Yet God protected us, Many are gone to the under world, Many destinies buried in the graves, Many started January with us but no more, Yet we are still alive, Let us give GOD our thankful heart, He is our protector, Let us give GOD our thanks, For without Him we shall be no more, Every moment of our lives,  Should be full of thanks, With life, there is hope!

Books for You This Lockdown Period

Image
Following the announcement by President Buhari last night, a lot of us will be indoors for the next fourteen days. This can turn out to be a very boring time seeing as we can't visit anyone and we are not allowed to leave our houses. I have curated a list of amazingly interesting books that can keep you busy during this period and for those who find it difficult to read, I have added some audiobooks as well. Now, you can listen to your favourite stories while doing other things. See the list below: The Girl with the Louding Voice - Abi Dare A powerful, emotional debut novel told in the unforgettable voice of a young Nigerian woman who is trapped in a life of servitude but determined to fight for her dreams and choose her own future. Adunni is a fourteen-year-old Nigerian girl who knows what she wants: an education. This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a “louding voice”—the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But i

Shattered Beyond Repair (Episode 1)

Tomilola sat down in the single room apartment where she lived with her mum. Her father had left when she was five; he just packed up and left with his belongings one day. There had been no quarrels, no exchange of words between her parents but he left them and they never heard from him again. She had just woken up from sleep and was just sitting there wondering where her mum could have gone. It was about 3pm in the afternoon and she was beginning to get hungry. She got up and opened the cupboard where her mum always kept food but there was no food in any of the pots. She went to the container where garri was kept and she was lucky to find that it still contained two handfuls; she put the garri in a cup and added some water. She left it to soak for some minutes so that it would rise. As she was about to start taking the garri, her mum came in. She carried a bunch of plantains and some other foodstuffs in a Bagco sack. Tomi left the garri and went to help her mother to arran

Sheila's Musings

Image
  The last time Sheila ever felt loved—intense, soul-wrenching, heart-thumping love was in the period between 2007 – 2011. She was just 19 and he was 21. He didn’t have money to give her and she didn’t even want money, she wanted just him—and he did love her. It was obvious in the way he treated her. In the way he looked at her. She knew it deep down in her soul that he loved her until he didn’t because he cheated and made it so obvious—she almost died. It was excruciatingly painful… But two years later, she moved on. In her service year, in 2013, she met someone else. He was so caring. Very loving. Everything she could ever want in a man. It was all so beautiful, but he was so insecure. He would check her phones and read her chats, but she didn’t mind because she had nothing to hide. Until she found out she was the side chick and took her L with pride and moved on. Fast forward to Dami in 2015. She needs to tell you his name because he was the only one who ever did right by her.
