"When you're on the right path, you need precautions. When you're on the wrong path, you need a prescription." ~ Mr. Pojo So you see, it’s not just about what you want, it’s about the path you’re actually on. Let’s break it down. Say I’m heading to Lagos, and someone else is also headed to Lagos. Now, imagine that I’m starting from Abuja, but they’re in Benin. Can we really be given the same set of directions? We’re both aiming for the same destination, yes, but the routes we need to take will be completely different. Why? Because the path you’re on determines what you need at each moment. Dearest reader, where you are per time defines the remedy, instruction, or adjustment you require. So pause and ask yourself: Where am I standing? Only then can you seek what’s truly needed for your next step. @favvy_Okwans🖤.

"After you've consumed all that bleeds from the soul of an artist, tell me, who are you not rooting for?" ~ Huwa. Ava does this thing where she often forgets that movies are not reality. She takes to heart so much of what happens in movies, and while this isn’t necessarily wrong, taking it to an extreme is unhealthy. Like after watching The Fault in Our Stars (a cancer movie), madam came up with the assumption that she had brain cancer, that there was a tumor in her brain. Trust me, it was hilarious, because what do you mean? Only Ava can turn a slight migraine into a brain tumor. *** I was at Government College today, and it brought to mind Ava’s craziness. Government College was her dream secondary school. There was this one time she came up with a plan to finally attend her dream school. Government College is an all-boys boarding school, and she had just finished watching one K-drama (To the Beautiful You), where a female character disguised herself as a bo...

"Your environment can be stronger than your intentions." — X Behind every action is an intention, and the intention often carries more weight than the action itself. Most times, intention governs action. Yet, there are moments when our intentions and actions are not aligned. Like the Apostle Paul said, "For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do, this I keep on doing."  It can be incredibly frustrating when our actions contradict our intentions. I want to do good, but I find myself drowning in a sea of bad. I feel it too, I’m sure you do sometimes. Ever wondered why? Well, my coach would say it's a situation where your head is disconnected from your heart. You say something, but you don’t really mean it. It’s like head knowledge versus heart knowledge. Head knowledge is just saying things without depth or conviction, while heart knowledge aligns your being with what you say. There are several factors that make our actions...

 "But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind." ~ James 1:6 I’ve learned that it’s indecisiveness that often brings a person to God in prayer—asking for something, yet doubting its possibility. It’s like someone speaking out of both sides of their mouth. Growing up, I had this feeling that my father was superhuman, because whatever I brought to him, he’d readily provide a solution. Whether it was science assignments, debate topics, or even fees and bills, he always came through. I don’t think there was ever a time I doubted his ability to help, unless it was something he strongly disagreed with. That was the only time I’d feel scared. Imagine coming to God with that same kind of audacity, believing without doubt that He’ll show up. Surely, He would. Don’t you think so? Dearest reader, maybe the next time you come before God asking for anything, endeavor to have a little more c...

I never really realized how much being part of the protocol department in my church had shaped my personality — at least, not until I found myself in the middle of a completely disorganized crowd. Recently, I attended a meeting, and honestly, I was baffled at the level of distraction and disturbance in the hall. Mehn, I was irritated. In my head, I kept thinking, "Where are the protocols sef?" (lol). It made me pause and reflect on how the environments we’re constantly exposed to have a way of rubbing off on us without us even noticing. Dearest reader, have you ever been in a situation where your own reaction shocked you? Something that once felt normal to you suddenly feels strange or even unacceptable? Like traveling, staying away for a while, and coming back only to realize you can no longer relate to certain things, all because of new levels of, exposure and enlightenment. @favvy_Okwans🖤.

I’ve been watching this really wild series, YOU, where the main character is some kind of twisted psycho. This guy? He would literally kill for the people he loves, no hesitation, no second thought. I even started calling him a serial killer in my head because, mehn, he does it too well. The way he cleans up and covers his tracks? Scary and impressive at the same time. Now here’s the crazy part: all he ever wanted from his partners was understanding. He wanted them to believe that every terrible thing he did, every crime, every body he buried, was “for them.” To protect them. You know, yada yada, love excuses everything. But of course, nobody ever got it. I mean, logically, who can really understand psychotic killing in the name of love? Then plot twist, he finally meets his match. Someone just as capable. Someone who would kill for him. And suddenly, he’s horrified. Like, bro, what’s the problem? Isn’t this exactly what you’ve been giving out? Why is it different now that ...
