The Converted Throat Goat

Disclaimer: Topic is largely inspired by a tweet I saw some days ago. I, myself, wonder how my mind works, as I was inspired to write of the reality of a new convert. Here are two things I know to be true; Jesus is the way and there is no situation impossible for God to change. Still, sometimes, I wonder

Choosing the Necessary Pains

“Don’t be afraid to start again. Remember that this time, you are not starting from the scratch, you’re starting from experience.” The above is a quote, shared with me by a friend I’d call sister, over my current situation or better still, decision.

If art is life, therefore, I am alive. So, until I die, I must write. Why? Because, it’s my kind of art. I repeat, “the day I stop writing is the day that I die” And how many times have I died?

The first time I watched Yellow by Coldplay, I was a depressed teenager.I played out two scenarios in my head: Out there alone in the multitude of people, probably feeling euphoric thanks to MDMA or a mind/emotional altering substance, and just feeling every sort of emotion rush through my being. Out there with my lover, his arms around me and

600 Years for who?

600 years for whoever said “misery likes company” Why? Because, that is one misunderstood expression which can be very insensitive in its use or interpretation. Well, if the subject title caught your attention, I would like to plead that you share this with anyone & everyone, because in one way or the other, we are all going through a tough

Freewill and Choices

I originally intended for this article to be dropped on the 1st of August, but I am too overwhelmed not to share this joy that I feel. First things first, God is real. I say that because in my search and quest to understand the supreme being, I am met with mind-blowing revelations. Talking about the subject matter steamed out
