New year Resolution

Image
 Hello friends, compliment of the season. It's going to be a new year in three days and a lot of us cannot wait especially with a new year resolution. You do not have to wait till it's Jan 1st, 2021 to effect the change you want. You can make it happen now. You need to be intentional about living.  Just like an elastic band, it remains the same way until a force acts on it and it stretches. Be ready to push, except you take that extra step and put in your best you might not see the change you want. You can even document your daily activities to be more accountable. Let's be intentional about creating that atmosphere and environment we so desire to live in. Don't be too hard on yourself if you fail at it sometimes. There is always room for improvement. Don't just do it because you want to, leave your footprints on it. Try out new things, put in your best, and most importantly Do it without Fear. See you at the top. Linda 🤗

'Merry Christmas' or 'Lockdown Christmas'

Image
While we are happy to be gradually free from the clutches of the Pandemic. Seems like some will be having a Lockdown Christmas.  If using a nose mask and obeying the directives of curbing the Pandemic is important, I do not understand why some still act like it doesn't matter. It's just a day to Christmas and while we will be going out, that's if your state permits to celebrate, let's don't forget we have to be responsible for our actions.  I feel like I experienced the Christmas celebration at its peak in childhood. The atmosphere doesn't feel the same. The earth is so polluted with evil and to this day I no longer want to hear the news because of the strange things that are been reported. Try and feed your thoughts with only positive things, things that are soul, body, and spirit-lifting. Don't stop being you and be around the people you care about and who care about you too. I pray that this season of Christmas brings you joy, laughter, and all the happin...

Pondering at midnight

Image
 I woke up at midnight pondering on a lot of things, Nigeria most especially. I am so happy for the Americans. They wanted change and they got it, thinking ours is still some years away.  Not 1, not 2, but 3 years. We are strong, there is so much happening. Inflation, rise in poverty, failed education system, poor infrastructure, no security for lives and property, no constant supply of electricity. The list is endless.  The lives of the youth and future leaders are at stake. The academic body of universities (ASUU) has been on strike for months now, the negotiation for a more convenient payment platform has been unending. It's so shameful. Every day in this country is taking a risk. I honestly wish for change now. It's sad to watch this never-ending movie Nigeria.  I also sincerely do not understand why a leader who once failed at his duty to lead is seeking an opportunity to lead again. Maybe I will have some relief,  don't know when or how it will happen but ...

Life Update, End sars Protest, and ...

Hello friends,  it's been a while here and it feels like I have been off for too long, My apologies.  A lot has happened in Nigeria and the world at large. Firstly the Pandemic and a day Nigerians will never forget, ' October 20th, 2020. #lekkimasaccre  That should be a day set aside to honour those we lost. The brave ones who stood their ground and would never shift fighting for a better Nigeria for those born and unborn. How would I speak of this day without talking about Dj switch. I am in awe of how brave she was. Even in the heat of the shootings and her own life at stake. She wouldn't bend and aired the whole event using her Instagram life. May the souls of all we lost rest in peace. Are you feeling the harmattan already? It's going to be my favorite time of the year soon. Who else is excited about Christmas? I will try to keep you updated and do a random post daily in December. Life has been happening and I have been so busy. I think the award of best mum should ...

60th Nigeria Independence, Is it worth Celebrating, Yay or Nay?

Image
 It's a new dawn. Another year of hope.  Another independence. It's Nigeria's 60th independence anniversary. We aren't close to where we want to be. We long for the day we will be there. Free from corruption and a failed system. We cannot pretend everything is fine when it's not. It might be for you but is it for Nigerians? There are issues that needs solutions. We can not continue to suffer and smile. Are we really independent after the independence. It seems like there are 2 kinds of people in this country. The independent and the dependent.The independent "those who are in power" the high and mighty. The dependent " the masses" the vulnerable. Today isn't a day worth celebrating as a country but as an individual celebrate because you are alive after so many hiccups especially killings of innocent lives. You are alive! If a man is 60 years old. He would probably have grand children and should at least have an inheritance for his children. I...
