I want to be relevant. I want to go to bed daily, knowing that that I gave the best that I possibly could to resolving all tasks that I have ahead of me. I want to go to bed each night, knowing that I have lived each day to the fullest, that I loved the …
Day 25, #TheSW30 Challenge
This is one of the challenges that just stumps me. Inspiration just came! Several years ago, it so happened that somehow I had just enough money to get me to Iyana Ipaja. It would have been say an hour’s trek from there on home. Maybe I had only N50 at Iyana Ipaja, and had to …
Day 24, #TheSW30 Challenge
The night of February 24, 2017. I don’t regret the night… just wish I had delayed the events of it Please allow me pick a second day also. I do not remember the exact date, but this was the date that let up to September 24, 2016. I remember thinking I would be asked …
Day 23, #TheSW30 Challenge
To this, I am going to need to refer you to Day 5 of this challenge. I try not to allow the smallness in the mind of some married folks who have bestowed the “no worries single life mark” on me, and I just move on.
Day 22, #TheSW30 Challenge

Day 20, #TheSW30 Challenge
Oh man….. Still A. If you do not know A, read here. I truly have closed the chapter of him. I have moved on, and have no desire whatsoever to go back there. Truly. And I just have to put this up: Here’s what I learnt: to fight back. If someone is going to walk away from …
Day 19, #TheSW30 Challenge
I love to play. Really, folks find that hard to believe. I have a really “serious” face, stemming from previous ‘I cannot see’ bad eyesight thing from my younger years and more recently the horrid experiences at work that caused me to pretty much stop smiling during office hours (and you know office hours is …
Day 18, #TheSW30 Challenge
It really is okay to be a wall flower. Blooming vibrant rose, or subtle wall flower, we each bring our distinctiveness into this world. Everyone has their own drama. While, yes, maybe sometimes your load may be hard to carry, learn to put a smile on your face. Be quick to shrug off people who …
Day 17, #TheSW30 Challenge
I believe in Jesus Christ, in His sovereignty and in His holiness and in His justness. I believe that He died for me to make me free indeed. Believing this causes me to be a bit more careful for the way that I speak, and act. I have had a lot on my mind, …
