SEEN IN SCENES📽

  We grab a drink or food... Sometimes a blanket and settle down on our couch as we get set to be transported into a world made to entertain us. We stare eagerly at our screens as a story, frictionally moulded into perfection unfolds itself. Studies show that the average person spends 78,000 hours watching tv. That is approximately nine years watching TV ..... When the credits roll and our screens turn black, the question is, has the story ended? The truth is the story continues, but this time it's within us .... This shows up when we begin to pick up traits from a character we like... Reacting to a situation has earlier seen in a scene.  Movies are scripted, but our lives aren't. As we try to create moments in our lives, we must ask ourselves... Is this a moment truly designed by our own minds   Or is it a scene seen before... but this time we are the actors?  For our stories are scripts yet to be premiered and every action still forms the scenes and plots. Therefore our outco

WHEN THE SUN SLEEPS...

                          We experience this moment every day... When the sun goes home to rest, leaving us with little light to continue our activities... This is the very moment that defines who we are and the life we have built.. For someone, home calls and it's an unapologetic time to meet our loved  ones and relax But for some, whose homes are like a cell with family members as cell partners. A home where children are entertained with rhythm-less sounds of argument and fight their parents give. When the sun sleeps the existence of pain and emptiness begins to haunt us. The street becomes a home for some with the sky serving as a roof over their heads. The cold of the night erodes them of a goodnight sleep. Some see it as a moment to catch up with the world's expectation by hustling, reading. It's also a moment to forget our sorrows, therefore, seeking temporary happiness by partying and getting high. Those who incline themselves to their religion see it as

A MOMENT PAUSED⏸️

The universe has it's ways of speaking to us. Through words or actions that forcefully pulls our attention to somethings we have been so ignorant about so we could discover something new or learn a thing or two... These moments are inevitable in a lifetime ; it could be during the day or once a year.  A moment when we are broken down into different puzzle pieces and we are asked to rearrange it till we get the right picture. For some it's the moment you are faced with the greatest trial or loss of a loved one. But when you get through it, you blossom and you are launched into a rebirth of a golden age. However, some leave the paused moment with scars because they focused more on the pain rather than thinking of what if there was something beautiful waiting to be discovered .. A moment paused creeps in through a relationship, our family, friends or a pandemic. We are thereby forced to feel the pain and yet still see the beauty it creates. Whenever there

You are the mysterious dark grey cloud above us, looking like a mother in labour about to give birth. You let go of one, a small crystal drop that hits the ground to make more representation of yourself.                                                                                                                      With that we know you are ready to create one of the mystical and magical moments of all.   Some people seek for shelter, some people embrace you because they see your true beauty. Especially children, they understand your language; they know its time for them to enjoy a moment of blissfulness by stomping into puddles of water you create along the road sides and time to dance in the rain.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Some people even have a nam

THE GIFT LEFT BEHIND 🎁

We feel things; from a mild touch, to the feeling we have for someone. But there's one feeling we get to feel that we ignore most times. The feeling time gives us. At a moment, we feel the warm embrace of time. This feeling gives us a signal that time is upon us; more like  it  froze and we have a lot of time on our side.   However, there comes a time when it feels like time is slowing loosing it's grip from us. It's like holding tightly to sand but yet it still escapes us. It might seem sad has it is impossible to catch up with time. Because it's like running a race that we know we will never win. But even though it seems like time is not static it leaves traces of it's existence. It leaves behind a gift called memories and moments that will last for eternity. Therefore, we need to know that at every second is   a moment to make change or create lasting memory. With everyone we meet or spend with, we are entitled to create an everl

That Sinking Ship

There are people who slowly creep in and become part of our lives. They stir up a fire we never thought we had and they create a surge of adrenaline as they paint a unique picture of life to us. They take us into a realm we seemly may have never experienced before by making us do crazy things like daring us to talk to our crush and dare us to do stupid at times. We get super comfortable with them and  emotionally attached to them that we create a bridge that leads them to a special part in our heart .  We start to spill secrets and confide in them. We relate with them and even open up to them in a way we wouldn't with our family . We start to think alike with them and we complete each others sentences. The force or influence of what we have built over time ma kes us act as one. Our good behaviour becomes part of them while their bad behaviour becomes who we are. For this reason, what we once cherished goes sour because We are no longer who we use to be. We st

To My Unseen Best friend..

We close our eyes and feed on the intoxicating feeling you give. There is something about You that just makes the world seem a little bit perfect. You stand out where ever you are heard. You were formed through words but you are so unique that you are spoken differently. Your words are reffered to as lyrics because you are special you give birth to melodies with the help of weapons called instrument. Subconsciously you have built countries according to your genres. You have created lots of bonds within friends and partners. There by breathing peace and joy amidst us. You give meaning and a unique touch to everything you are put into. Movies eagerly need and depend on you to express the deepest of emotions so as to connect with us. Even when we are sad and want to be alone, we turn to you for help and you always deliver by creating a world of our own with words as we tune out the whole world. Your influence on us is so strong
