We adjust to situations we find ourselves in. Man will find entertainment in some unusual things. I had fun washing coins. It had nothing to do with the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. I was bored asf that day when I washed those coins. I couldn’t find joy in doing anything else, so I tossed them and washed…

Day #19: My Skechers – A Review
My toes slant at an acute angle. They are like a family of five; dad, mum and a line of three children ages eight, six, and four. My toes take the shape of a pan flute held together by a sisal rope. Which means if I did the moonwalk, spun and finished it off with…
Day #18: A Day in Lockdown
Weekday It always starts with Tiara. She wakes me up at 7:15am. She never forgets. She’s a consistent servant, always on the right side of my bed. But I’m not that disciplined. I turn away. I tell her to shut up. I ask her not to bother me. I tell her to find her friends…
Day #15: Letter to Younger Me
Look man, lots of things will happen. At 21, you’ll watch Steve Jobs commencement address to Stanford University graduates. He will say, “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” At 26, you’ll get the…
Day #14: Gifts and Ideas
We’ve got to understand why we are giving a gift. Is it to celebrate something? Is it to honor an occasion? Is it to appreciate someone? Is it to show love? Is it to build friendship? Is it to make someone happy? Is it to apologize? Is it to surprise the recipient? Is it to…
Day #3: To The Five of You
You’ll have dreams and goals and aspirations that run from Earth to Mars. You’ll put timelines to when you want to achieve certain things. “I’ll be rich by 30,” you’ll say. “I’ll own a car. I’ll have businesses. I’ll buy a house.” “I’ll be married by 25.” There will be many things you’ll want. You’ll…
Day #2: Bucket List
Do I have a Bucket List? I don’t think I have one. Maybe it’s because I don’t understand what it is. I don’t know what it should have. True, there are things I want to do. I don’t consider them Bucket List worthy though. I did what a clueless guy like me would do. I…
Day #1: A Disjointed Letter To You
Hi Reader, This is the beginning of a 21 Day Blogging Challenge. It’s the #lockdownblog challenge. Where I am, I’ve already been social distancing for 17 days. I should be writing a letter that moves you. But getting into the third week of social distancing and quarantine over here drives my mind to its default…
Day #30: The Finish Line and Afrobloggers
“For wherever your treasure is, that is where your heart will be too.” Matthew 6:21 and Luke 12:34 [I wanted to use a picture of Eliud Kipchoge setting the marathon world record in Berlin but I couldn’t find one that was clear and free to use. I’d have to fork out at least USD 100…
Day #29: To You My Readers
The first person to post a comment on this blog was Kevin. That was in April, two months after I started this blog. It was a big deal for me. I jumped in celebration as though I’d scored a goal and poured myself a glass of wine. I was elated and thankful and out of…
