When I started, this writing business, It was all about my desire to share my thoughts with whoever has time to read, Or as providence enabled, serving works of art to those who love creativity, Or sometimes just sharing my opinions without being limited by interruptions that can rechannel my flow of thoughts, But isn’t such the plight of everyone who desires to secure a space in the table of…

God has done His part,Giving us His only son to die a vicarious death for us,Whether we accept Him or not is up to us,But in Him only is life eternal.

This is a category that people can debate about and ignore when strategizing and budgeting for our global needs, which I don’t have any problem with because who can budget for the bread of life anyway?

Thursday, 21st of September 2023, was one of those days that notifications must be kept muted.  As soon as I took my…

I am not worried if I see a drunkard drunk and disorderly, When he staggers and wobbles like an old automobile, Or totter like an overstayed hut, But when I see man who has never touched that bewitching glass,  Take their first dart and begin his series of doomsday I tremble.
