My Illustrious Dream
My beloved dream is the jealous type and would stop at nothing until my attention returned. At this point, I became the dream. It felt nice being wanted too. I never knew I could be a dream’s dream. That in itself was a dream come true.
The Importance of Humour and Laughter
Research has proved that laughter is a good cardio workout. The health benefits are enormous; from lowering our blood pressure to releasing endorphins and increasing the immune cells in our body.
Marrying Early or Late?
It is only logical to assume that those who are in their thirties and above are more advanced and certain of the choices they make; there is a purpose in what they are doing. Unlike early marriages that comes with many uncertainties; one party might not have metamorphosed into their true being at the time of marriage and when change begins to happen, the other party complains about the drastic change in behavioural pattern. Then you are likely to hear a saying such as: “you are not the person I married”.
The Exclusivity of the N-Word
The N-Word has been a subject of debate and those without African heritage really think it’s a double standard for those with African ancestry to have the n-word exclusively to themselves. Feeling left out is quite understood but unfounded. Furthermore, if we go back to where it all started, we’ll realise that the word isn’t a complimentary word when it was invented by the masters of the slave trade. The n-word was uttered to make a slave feel small. But as time went on, the freeborn reinvented the word to ease the pain and memory associated with a word created to demean their race. And that makes the word off limits to anyone who doesn’t share such historical background.
Pride Comes After a Win
Processes are never fun, they are outrightly tedious and straining. The journey is there to test the resolve of whoever is willing to dare. Sometimes, giving up looks attractive whenever the doubts begin to creep in. While the body is being trained physically, the mind is also trained. Combat sport is as hard as they come.
What If There Was no Africa as a Continent
The existence of Africa is unique for a major reason: to enable the rest of the world to survive— the main reason is economic. The main economic expectation of nature is trade, buying to enable the rest to produce, thus facilitating lifelong business sustenance for the producers. If there are no buyers then there would be no need to produce, and no product means no work, then economic problems— no employment, and a harsh reality to live in.
