April 20th, 2011

Woke up this morning to a friend's blog and I realised I hadn't really blogged about myself, so the plan was to ramble a little about Me. But a very unfortunate circumstance is taking over the body of this post.
My regular random day was altered when I passed the scene of an accident very early this morning, a boy definitely under age 10 was knocked down by a car his little body was laying lifeless by the side of the road surrounded by people filled with grief. A million an one different thoughts ran through my head and an immediate feeling of weakness overwhelmed me, there was a strong pain in my chest "literally". I never knew I was that emotional but who wouldn't be at a sight like that? "This minor who hadn't even lived life just died in a very unnatural manner".
I felt worse when I imagined how the boy's mother and other family members would feel when they hear the news, when an ordinary passerby like me could feel the way I felt. Only God can comfort her in this period of grief. The thought that life can be taking away just like that is a very scary one, 'Things like this are inevitable', a friend said to me ‎​"Such things do happen, painful realities of life, that's why its an accident". Just as I was about to publish this post I received the good news that my uncle's wife had a baby boy, I have a new nephew. Good news for some people sad ones for some, a life was taken and a new life was giving. It is my friend's birthday today too 'Happy birthday Lola Odunlami'.
At the end of the day I'm in-between sad and happy, but I'll just say May the Almighty God guide and protect us all AMEN!

On This Note I Say Thank You

Its a new year and I waited a whole month before updating my blog, I've been really busy that's the best excuse I could come up with.
This year is running like its a race, it feels like january first was just yesterday but the calender says different a full 32 days have gone past today, to God be the glory its been a good year so far.
I was 20 on the 17th of january I don't feel older thou, but I felt something, something that I had all this while but never really notice "True friends that care". From 12am on my birthday I started getting birthday messages and they didn't stop till the next day, "gifts" I didn't get but the love I got from friends an family was more than any gift I could ave ever gotten with the exception of a car,house,a million dollars e.t.c. The smiles the messages put on my face was priceless and will not be forgotten in a hurry.
I love you all thank you and God bless you, I could never wish for better friends I ave the best already
