2016,My Hardest Year So Far!

What's up Everybody!


       It's really good to be here! I haven't been blogging as often as I use to. A lot of things are the reasons but let's not talk about any of that. I'm here now and that's what's important.
       A lot has being happening in my life lately and I'm trying my best to make sure I'm breathing through it all. So many things to do, so many platforms are opening up, so many assignments to do. Since I started performing poetry, never have I ever had to write a poem with a deadline but it happened this year. I wasn't just writing one poem but quite a number. It felt super new and I also felt that I couldn't meet up with the deadlines I was given but God was good and He helped me.
      This year so far is proving to be my hardest year, and I'm learning to believe that God indeed makes all things work together for our good. There has being so many crushed hopes, so many disappointments, so many unmet expectations, so many hurts and the list continues. But you know what? There's also being so many met expectations, fulfilled dreams, I met deadlines even when it seemed like I was going to explode from all the pressure and so many wonderful things happened.
      Our biggest challenge isn't that we go through challenges,but that we forget the great times we've experienced when we encounter challenges. As hard as it gets, I'm learning to be patient with God. Yea! PATIENCE! Like James said: "The testing of our faith produces patience....." I've seen that happen in my own life. When life beats you, you go just calm. Like person wey dem pour cole(cold) water....
        Through the tough and trying times,here's what I'm learning: "Pain is painful,But it would soon pass. And joy always follows". I've decided that to sit back and just let God lead through out the remaining parts of the year.

This is how I tend to continually be, especially in the bad times:


I plan to worship and love God even when it hurts! Because that, my friend, is the true test of whether or not we love God at all.
Will you still worship God in trying times? Don't answer the question so fast,  wait until you're experiencing trying times!

Keep hoping with me,
Keep believing with me,
We would both get to the end together!
Never forget: There's always joy waiting when the pain is over....

Are you loosing friends?

Hello Fam!      In my very few years of living on this Earth,I have come to the realization of two very vital truths: 1: Friends are very important in the life of any human being. 2: As you grow,you would drop some friends along the way.        People find it easy to grasp the first much more than they do the second,and I think the reason is because the second signifies a kind of loss. But the reality is friends have to come and go. Its just the way relationships has been designed to work. Many times,if we are truthful with ourselves,loosing some friends was just a breath of fresh air. Some people just carry bad luck and follow you everywhere. Lol.        I was chatting with a friend yesterday and I was telling him that If I count the number of friends I have in my life right now with my fingers,I won't use up the fingers on the first hand. Some years down the line,I had tons and tons of friends. I am quite a friendly person,so making friends was never an issue for me in my
