I know there are a lot of good things that come with being in love, but when you also think of the bad things or sad things that could happen, you end up getting discouraged and not wanting to even give

A friend of mine came visiting today. He had recently moved into his new apartment and wanted me to come check out the place, so I tagged along. Aside from the fact that we're friends, another reason why

Earlier today, I decided to follow a friend in his vehicle and just experience life from his point of view. This person happens to be a commercial bus driver, and when I told him about my idea to spend

Last night, I was trying to sleep when my brain did that thing it normally does where it starts thinking about random stuff and one of the stuff I thought about was the year 2020, during the whole COVID-19

I'm not a fan of getting pranked, and I probably never will be, because most times I tend to overreact to things like this, especially due to how far most of you like to take your pranks. But there have

I sincerely feel like people don't talk enough about how much strength it takes for anyone to get up and go to work every day while they may be going through some stuff privately. photo by Majestic Lukas

I had stayed indoors for the majority of today until later this evening when I eventually decided to go sit outside. When I went outside, I met two guys and a lady seated and drinking. From the looks of

If there's one thing I've unknowingly perfected so well, it is finding the right balance between an insult and a joke. I do this thing where I could perfectly insult someone, say things that normally would

I really try not to tell lies in my life, but there have been times when certain things happened to me that I just knew the only way I was getting out of this was to tell a well-crafted lie. photo by Kristina

For the first time in a really long time, I decided to try something new. I had decided to not only travel by night, but also, rather than travel in a minibus, I had paid for the type of vehicle known

I got to watch one of my phobias happen live a while back, but thankfully it wasn't to me, but to someone else. One time when I was travelling with one of these transport company vehicles. Our driver had

When we talk about mental health, I feel like it is a topic that most African parents have to be educated on, because some of them still do not get how serious something like that can be. photo by Marcel

Growing up as kids, I remember there was a bird that always made this unique sound at night, and every time it did, my dad would always say “holy ghost fire,” like he was rebuking the bird because there

These past few weeks that I've gotten to be home with my dad have made me realize even more how black and white my dad's reasoning is. If it's bad, then it's bad, and vice versa. And while this might not

Today was one of those days that was a bit stressful, but it was the good kind of stress. Like I had said in my previous blog, I had attended the cross-over service and got home around 1am in the morning,

Every New Year's Eve, most churches hold a service, a vigil, where members gather to pray into the new year, and then we all get to wish each other happy new year before going back home. For some reason,

For the majority of my adult life so far, I've mostly lived upstairs or in a flat building where our flat is at the back, meaning no one walks there except us because you have no reason to walk that far,

In the world we live in today, not a lot of people listen, most people only listen to respond but not to comprehend what you're saying and even try to see if maybe you're making sense or not. Unfortunately,

I feel like people don't realize how important having meats in our meals are. As a matter of fact, I grew up with the mentality that meats are rewards that we get for doing a good job, the good job in

I woke up this morning with the thoughts of my friend on my mind. For the first time in six years, I will be living a whole year without him being around. And no, he didn't die; he just moved away to a
