Hey man!I have a lot to tell you, like a whole lot, but I am restricted by a lot of things. For example, Michael asked for a thousand words, and besides, too much info about the future might make you complacent but I will try to give you as much as I believe you need. […]
#Letter: Tomorrow Always Takes Care of Itself
Ayomide, This is me from the future (it’s really just 7 years but it is still the future you get). Babe a lot has happened in these seven years but let me give you the major highlights. So you just finished from Pharmacy in OAU, not UNIBEN and you didn’t finish school before 21. Fun-fact […]
Letter To My 15-Year-Old Self
Dear 15 Year Old Michael, I feel there are some things I need to warn you about. I know they are going to happen but I just feel you should be prepared when they do and know that, in life, we do not always get what we want. Life has a way of waving our […]
Looking From A Distance
Sometimes it is good to know what is in the heart of those who don’t have what we have, who are not celebrating what we are celebrating. I reached out to Victoria to give us 1000 words on what she thinks of final year students and graduates. She sent this. Enjoy. You would find them […]
June 12
In the end, you lose. The constant war you are experiencing in your mind, you lose in the end; especially if it is against love. There is the thing about love. If it comes simply and you can control it and things go as fine as they go, for you, it is not love. It […]
In The End, There Were Girls And Many Sorrows.
Before I begin this, let me apologize for what you are about to read. First, this is about love and sorrow, hence, it does not have a happy ending. Second, this is going to be more than a thousand words. I promised that all the posts in this series will be in the range of […]
In The End
In the end, it will occur to you that your end is nothing like your beginning. Maybe it is possible that we agree that it is a little bit like your middle, but certainly nothing like your beginning. The bulk of the things you value now, the bulk of things you love now, the things […]
When The End Is Near
When the end is near, you will know. The question of knowing is not one of the many questions you will grapple with. The end will not catch you by surprise. It will not sneak up on you like a thief in the night. It will walk towards you like a wilding giant, strutting lazily […]
My Stand On Feminism
“It is in vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it. Millions are condemned to a stiller doom than mine, and millions are in silent revolt against their lot. Nobody knows how many rebellions besides political rebellions ferment […]
Pizza
It was 2016 and half of the people I know today were not in my life then. I was not many things that I am now. I was a writer. I have always been a writer. Aside being a writer, I cannot remember anything else that existed then that still exists now. I was not […]
