WHAT'S IN LIFE?







I think y'all have to wire my aza because my soothsaying skills have become top-notch.

I gave you a heads-up about October.

I hope you had a plan.

I would describe mine as bittersweet.

A beautiful beginning with a rollercoaster ending.

I'm pretty sure everybody had their share. 

Some got crumbs, and others, Lion's Share. I think I fall in the category of others.

What about you?

Regardless of the category, I hope you didn't fall off the radar.

Cause I did, and I fell hard. 





October was razz for me. At first, I was dividing myself into two, which is a lot, and by the middle of October, I was into three. 

Let me not even get started about the end part because it was not funny. 😪

So yes, I did fall, and the crazy thing is, I didn't want to get back up.

The stress was three much.

In my mind, I thought if I put myself back up, I won't be able to hold fast. I just wanted it all to end. 

Then I came to a realization.

It never ends. 

Funny enough, that's what life is all about. 

Running around, 

Pursuing one thing or the other, 

Trying to make the most out of nothing or little, 

Trying to be the difference out of over 7 billion people.

Trying to make an impact,

Falling and rising up again.

And it finally came to me. The only time it ends is when we finally get that endless sleep. I got cold the instant the thought came to mind.

I no wan die, is the first thing I uttered.

So I picked myself back up with little assurance that no matter what, I'll have to sail through the storms and obstacles.

Without all these obstacles, nobody would want to push to be better. We'll all lie down and watch as time passes.

What a bore life would have been!

So cheer up and keep your chin high.

Stay strong.




If you fall, it's okay. 

It doesn't matter how hard you fall. What matters is that you rise up again.

Although, I advise that you don't stay on the ground for too long. You might get too comfortable or get a mad backache because the floor is too hard. 😩😅

Life can be that harsh.



Till next time,

D.

BACK FROM THE EDGE

I give up on writing.  Really.  It's not what it used to be.  It no longer feels warm.  I remember my first time on Wattpad and how butterflies formed in my belly when I read different stories, and I thought  "Ah, wouldn't it be nice if someone else could have a taste of this feeling of bliss"?  This was how my love story began until I was swayed into the arms of another in search of a solution to my many problems.  A journey of hatred and suffocation started.  Why, you may ask?  Well, I won't mince words when giving my answer. It's too accurate to miss😂 That which I once held dear became a bitter experience.  It tore the garment of my soul!  It gave me the feeling of an American male teenager who has parents who are always at loggerheads.  No comfort.  No solace.  No calm .  Just a space filled with darkness as thick as a forest.  I used to live for writing.  It was the bane of my existence.  It ...

DON'T HOLD ON!

  My decisions are mine and mine alone, even when influenced by others, I'm still the one with the final say. I'm still the one who decides if I want to go or if I want to stay. And so it kills me when such decisions bring about an emotion that won't give me a chance to breathe. That won't give me a chance to move. That won't give me a chance at life. Regret. Basically, we're looking at regret in context of the past i.e in things we wish we had done. Subtly put, Wishful Thinking. To regret means to feel sorry about something, to be remorseful.  It means that regret comes with a deep kind of sorrow. When we feel sorry, it means something went wrong or haywire.  It means there's a pain deep in your hearts knowing that if you went back in time, you would definitely change the turnout of things. "Assuming I just listened, I wouldn't be in this state". This is the sound of someone who feels sorry for themselves for not doing something or taking acti...

THE WORLD OF A MAN

There's this silly saying that "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus".  Very funny. But looking at it from a different point of view, you'll see that it's actually true.  Mars is the fourth planet away from the Sun and it's really cold and unfortunately that's how the world sees them.  Cold-hearted...  Cruel   Heartless    Insensitive     Inhuman Only one gender. Not easy yeah? Have you ever wondered why the antagonist in most romance novels are women? Or why both male and female authors dwell so much on them (women) like there's only one gender on earth? Well it's easy, men are a whole lot complex species. In this little time I've spent on earth, I've had my fair share of interacting with them and trust me when I say they're easy to understand I'm a totally different way. As a child, I watched the way my brothers were treated, quite different I must say. Although I am the most senior out of all my siblings, my dad...
