INTRODUCING YOU TO YOU #7: YOU ARE PERFECT

You are the wholest creature. Yes! You are perfect. You are pretty, handsome, awesome and made wholly.  Darling, the one who created you is an author of perfection. He is perfect and all the works of His hands are without fault.  Are you fair to look upon or unsightly? You are as perfect as you are. Are you thin or fat? The best it can be is the best it is. Do you wish you were fair and not dark or vice versa? Dear, you can’t be such.  Is your skin acne-prone? You can’t be more perfect. Do you resent your dental composition? You don’t have to. Why? Because that’s how best it can be. Let me share my story with you. The basis of my timidity and low self-esteem in my teens is my dental composition. There would never be a day someone, somewhere would not talk about it. My diastema was not as wide as it is today, my upper fore teeth were long that my lips could not cover them…the first thing anyone would probably notice about me would be the way I used to (unconsci...

EXCERPTS FROM F'ÀWỌ̀RAJÀ

I would be too quick to judge who he really was to Jane as at that time.   His outfit surpassed that of a mere colleague for an indoor party but then, he seemed to be known by Jola because she challenged them for coming later than they planned when the four walked in... “He may be one of the millionaires in her office, maybe he’s her boss…see, whatever!” I bothered my mind with this thought as I stylishly scrutinized his entire outfit.   He was dressed in a pink senator attire touched with silver accessories, his shoes were Italian products and his wrist watch matched with the accessories on his attire. I was certain, that watch was a designer watch.   As if he knew I was staring at him...he removed his shades and turned to the right, he said, "Hi".  "Hello", I replied bluntly. His face took my breath. "This guy is cute!" I said the usual thing I used to say to handsome men...words that never got to their ears. I didn’t fancy beards on men, but...

INTRODUCING YOU TO YOU #6: YOU HAVE A BABY

Hello o! You have a baby. Are you surprised? You shouldn’t. Inside every human being are a lot of children- when one grows another surface. Your “Weakness” is what I liken to “a baby”. You have a weakness, my dear. Whoever you are, however wise you think you are, which ever position you occupy in life, you are not human if you deny having a weakness. What makes you human is your weakness. And, what makes you a sensible human being is your humility to accept the fact that you have a weakness(es). Do not be numbered among people who think they are perfect- only God is perfect. Don’t get me wrong. Weakness is different from sin. Sin is a deliberate act of rebellion against God through nature. For instance, robbery, killing, fornication and the likes. While a weakness is a behavioural flaw in an individual, this can be nonchalance, playfulness, laziness, talkativeness, mismanagement, pride, workaholism and so on. You may not find your own in this list, but the truth is that y...

INTRODUCING YOU TO YOU #5: YOU ARE A PREGNANT BEING

I was thirteen when my mother was pregnant with her last child. Eventually, she was delivered of the baby the week I discovered she was pregnant. Isn't that tricky?😎 Her pregnancy would only make you feel she was adding weight.   The protrusion of the stomach is not synonymous to pregnancy. How many people with a protruding stomach are not pregnant and how many of them truly pregnant are unnoticed, until their delivery is near.     Darling, I'm glad to announce to you that, you are pregnant! You may want to personalize that, say, "I am pregnant".   You don't need to check your tummy, why? Because, you are not carrying a biological pregnancy, hence, you carry the pregnancy of great potential.   Say, "I carry the pregnancy of great potential". So, you were created, darling! You were created a pregnant being.   You are a pregnant being! This was the declaration at your creation; "...Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the ea...
