What a day!

Do they define who we eventually marry? Sitting down here listening to an YouTube video of Myles Munroe. I am tempted to agree. Or Shoud I say I agree? I am still thinking.  Do Fathers determine the kind of spouse the girl goes for? without even knowing she is doing so? & DO mothers determine the kind of wife a son goes for?  Still thoughts in my mind right now. 

Here I talk about Pastors you listen to.  So it turns out that my parents took me to the Foursquare Gospel church from a young age. I still recall a scene when I should be about 2 years old where your Grandma was waiting for me by Iya sharafa's shop in Jakande Estate, Isolo, to go to church. The scene appears to be green in light. But I still remember.  Here I would like to tell you to remind me should I forget.  There comes a time in the late teenage years or early 20s where  you might prefer to listen to the word of God from the mouth of younger ministers than the ministers we introduced you to. This happened in my time. Though i still listen to the ministers my parents introduced me to but I realized god was doing more than what I had known. It was clear with these other Pastors.  I got to know the Foursquare Pastors of the time while growing up. But I learnt more of specific things with certain Pastor outside the Foursquare Gospel. I learnt of the Power of G...

Not sure if this writeup should come from me.  Kiity's perspective would be better as she made the decision. As long as I had known, Kiity has always felt a form of pressure to move abroad. Don't ask me where the pressure came from. This pressure led to thoughts of moving abroad to live.  But I didn't have this mentality or desire. We probably would have moved abroad earlier if I did. I just did not feel or desire moving to a ew country as other's did. But then, hearing the abroad story consistently both inside and outside (a lot of people talked about it at work and other places) stirred me up. I think somewhere in Kiity's mind, she still feels we would have moved in 2017 if we really wanted to.  Let's fast-forward to the period 2018 - 2020. We had moved back to Lagos at this time after my sojourn with Benin Electricity.  The major destination for most people in Nigeria then was Canada via the Express Entry with a few via the Academic system. This scale eventua...

  I would love to draft a long letter to you. But the thoughts and words captured above say a lot that I want you to carry on for the rest of your life.  You indeed have a legacy to cherish and to build on. Your mum, grand-mums and great-grand-mums are one of the strongest and determined persons I have met and I know the seed lives on in you. Yes, I did come to know them all and I see the foundation you have to lean on. You are Royalty both Spiritually and by Land Origin. 1 Pet 2:9 reminds me of your spiritual royalty and the knowledge that you are of the origin of men who have reigned as Kings in Nigeria both in Kogi and Ondo States. Therefore, let the words scribed above by the Queen of the Southern Nigerian Kingdom bring light to you today and for every other day. I was watching a movie during the past weekend and it showcased a Father who stood by his daughter even when the whole community were against her. I would like you to know that I would be by your side from Day 1 t...

  Ran the 2025 Dam tot Dam loop again in 2025. The Night Run. I did this in 2024 and documented here . This time around, I went in for the fun and thrill. You can imagine that I did not practice as I did the last time. "I had done it a year ago, I must be able to do it again" was my mindset. Never mind that I had added about 3-5kg in weight. I was unbothered and so sure it would be done. Last, Last as we say in pidgin English, " I go waka am " which simply means that I would walk all the way. But I did not have to. In fact, I made it in an earlier time compared to the previous year. I made two phone calls during the run to show how i was just in the mood to enjoy it.  Now that I think of making a better time than the previous year. I consider that I must have been slow in 2024. what improved? I do not know.  I was having a conversation with some colleagues some days ago and they were asking for my running plans for the year 2026. I simply said another 8km. But they...

Dont get it twisted. This is still 85kg. Not an age thingy. I woke up this morning to check my weight and it was 95kg on the dot.  This time I was happy. I was happy because i had hit 98.7kg some 4 weeks ago. I also decided to wear a particular shirt and it fit. Now that was something.  Have I been exercising? Or eating eight? The latter. No. The first, maybe. I stumbled on this by error. A friend triggered me to cycle to work and I did. Never mind that I had been saying I would do it as I see several people riding their bicycles all the way to Amsterdam. Anyways, I made the trip and I have been giddy about it since.  I have romanced the use of bus for over a year now that using the bike feels too sweet to use. I get to see other riders along the way and enjoy the view of Amstelveen and Amsterdam.  I should say it is also faster than using the bus sometimes especially if the first bus would be the 357. That takes 40mins for me in all. But with the bike. M...
