13th July, 2006

Still, another I found on the computer. I'd rather have it saved here. Happened at School, 300 level, 2nd semester. here it goes, unedited. Some spiritual me. Still spiritual though, can't afford to be neutral out here.


Letting God take the lead in your affairs removes every cause for worries in your life.

I don't know how, but a summary is all i'm gonna do. I tried writing before but lost the document. I hope this would do or really help.

There was a kettle that was left boiling in my room on a particular day. this kettle had no thermostat attached.we all went for a meetin in the chapel , I then remebered that the person that was boiling the water never came back for it. I came to the hall to check but I couldn't get in. I tried all I could to get the person and my roomate, Soji to confirm whether they turned it off, I found the person and he said he left it  connected after trying for a while and it did not work but that my roomate did something about it and could have removed it. I couldn't concentrate in the meeting, I looked for my roomate all through but couldn't get him. a prayer I always prayed every time i found myself in a situation i couldn't take charge or do anything was the prayer I prayed saying "lord, take charge." .I got to my sit and we were asked to pray, the set of prayers we prayed all tallied within the situation I was in and yes you can be sure i was fervently into the prayer. at the back of my mind, one session suspension or whatever. I was just restless. after we moved to the hall I saw Soji who said he also left it and that it  was working when he left it. inside the hall now, we saw it connected but it wasn't boiling. my romate tried adjusting the wire and then it started  boiling. to God be the glory, I have no cause to weep, to start a series of thinking that will lead no where. all I could do was go on my kneels  and say "lord, thank you". I guess we both want to know what really happened, why not live your life in  accordance to God's plan and by the time we get to heaven, we'll both walk up to him and ask "father, what really happened that day".



Still remember that day.

An Open Letter to Kunfaiyeoluwa

  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...

The Vacation Idea

  Kiity and I differ on this. What is a vacation? What is a retreat? Kiity made me think of retreat. To me, every time away from work is a vacation. This is my simple definition.  I recall when I was studying. The same definition applied. Anytime away from school is a vacation. When the school is not in session, we are on vacation. The same has applied to my work life.  But Kiity sees it differently. She had to google this and the AI overview gave the feedback below: A vacation is primarily for relaxation and fun, while a retreat focuses on personal growth, self-reflection, and often includes structured activities aimed at improving well-being Kiity is right by this definition. I have told her.  In my own world, it seems definitions are simple and when adhered to, makes my life simple. Where did all this come from? It came from a post Kiity made on Polarsteps about "our first Family Vacation". I looked at it and said we had done a lot of vacations in the past based o...

Dam tot Dam loop Business Run - 5miles or 8km - Done!

  Yes, I did. And it was fun. I ran the Dam tot Dam loop Business Run 5Miles. And it was amazing to do this for the first time ever in 2024.  I got to know about the run about 2 months ago during a chat with Jana Reiss and I was interested. I had seen a friend and former line manager at MainOne, Ayomide, run marathons and amass medals from the run. I have also seen another former line manager, Vremudia run a lot including the marathons.  Living in the Netherlands made it easy to join the band wagon. You have roads with a bicycle path and the walk way aside the road for cars. Thus, I loved to joined the band wagon and have now taken part in the first long distance run.  I did the run the 8K in 1:08:10 Hrs. the best runner of the day did it in 25 mins. A pretty long way to get to for me. But I recall in my practice, the first time I did the 8K was 1:15:00 Hrs and the second time 1:09:00 Hrs. So a little improvement but definitely within my plan. I wasn't aiming to be t...
