How was 2021?

Image
I really want to thank God for 2021. It went really well for me - actually. And I'm not even talking about finances. Personal -development, self-awareness, Growth and Maturity. What started as a shaky year turned out to being an awesome year for me. Of course, I cried more for prospecting as well. But you know what they say about tears being Carthasis - a purgation of emotions. Spiritually, it wasn't that bad - I'd say. I even went to church 2 good times in 2021. And even though I didn't exactly do yoga this year, I had a lot of mental introspection. Which is as spiritual as anything. Moving on -  I don't have many goals for 2022. I actually have only 3 realistic goals for the whole year: in the world of copywriting, the world of technology and personal development. And the goals ain't even goals per-se but steps, processes and plans. Thank you Jesus for 2021. Onwards to 2022.

Took so long

 It took me a while to come to this realisation I can criticise orthodox Christianity while enjoying gospel music. I can decide not to be religious, but groove to music You know why? Because music is transcendental. Same way you enjoy secular music as a Christian. Same way I'd enjoy an artist music without necessarily liking them as a person There is legit no black and white in matters of ideologies, faith, etc Most things are in the grey

What is Success to me 2021?

 What is success for me? Disclaimer - Money amounts to success. However, more than that... It is *seeing where I was and where I am now* It is... Reading a post on a news article and saying, I will be published there in a year... Then making it happen 6 months later  It is cold-pitching a prospect for a proposal, and getting a job offer in return just because he could not get over the persuasive proposal. It's starting small, but being aware of each step of the journey. The long game (every single time) It is "knowing that I can always change my path" when something else calls unto me It is "being content with what I have, but working towards having more" It is self-awareness, knowing there will be *shit* days and living through those shit days It is knowing there are times when I will slack, but being strong enough to pick up from where I'd fallen It is growing.  That's what success is for me

When a comparison goes wrong

Image
 This is supposed to be cruise and poke fun but it's problematic to have dunderheads posting this shit. There is something inherently stupid about this comparison. 1. I am dependent on my father. He provides me with food and shelter. It'd be stupid to start fighting equality. Doesn't make sense. So stupid Comparing this to a marriage is projecting that relationship to being a surbordinate rather than a partner. For my future spouse - I'm not going to be dependent on you. We will be in a relationship. Simple. In no universe will I slave away what I did yesterday in the name of marriage. God won't even allow it. I'm still recuperating from yesterday's chores. It's not funny. So it's either the two of us enter that kitchen and be tired at the end of the day together. Or, we save ourselves the energy and order a pot of food. Simple. Stop using daft analogies to poke fun at 3rd wave feminism. You can do better.

Lagertha vs Aslaug

Image
  Sorry I'm late to the Vikings party oo. I really apologize. But the biggest joke is Aslaug getting worked up/feeling insulted because Ragnar flirted with a slave girl. Yet she knowingly slept with another woman's husband. A Clown 🀑 Stupid one for that matter. If I ever lived in the middle ages, I'll choose over and over to be a Lagertha. And I say... A thousand times over. Sure, great for your destiny in life to be a breeder. But better respect to a woman who walked away from insult and humiliation amidst the wealth and love... To kill a man who attempted to rape her... To stab an abusive husband... To kill a partner who tried to usurp her... Hell, even in this 21st century, anyone with Lagertha's spirit is a winner.

Film Review: Fine wine

Image
  Whe n you see veterans in the news, you realise that Nollywood is poor. The industry is purely privatised.  During my research on other countries' film industries, I discovered some like India and even South Korean governments, gave subsidies to their film industry Guess what happens with Nigeria? Nothing, of course. So those actors we saw then had fame, but not money. Every single movie you see today is funded by producers themselves. And they need to recoup their profits - it's not charity yunno. So yes, I will criticise exaggerations or movies that blatantly has loopholes and everything in-between, but I respect Nollywood. The journey to its becoming. And if the movie is Awesome, I will hype it forever. On that note, I introduce Fine Wine to you. Definitely watch this. By RMD himself - the sugar daddy of all Sugar Daddies. Support Nollywood by Watching Fine Wine. You'll definitely love it.

Am I being a bad friend?

Image
  Case-in-point Small Business Owners et.al . Because this shit always happens with Small Business owners. We are in our early 20s. I'm still figuring out my shit, the same way you're figuring yours out. I don't have connections because I'm still 21, waddafuq That I wasn't there when you're having personal issues. Have you seen me break down because my outreach is not going well? Have you sent me the clients I need as well? That I don't support your small business? That's because it's not a need for me. It's a want. And with my budget, I can't indulge wants. That's on it - period. And if that makes me a bad friend, you should know by now... I don't fucking care. So maybe next few years/decades when I'm established and I don't help you with either my resources or my network, you can call me a bad Friend then. Good morning.

Different opinions when Ini Edo said she did surrogacy with donor from a sperm bank Nigerian women: 1. If I have the money, I'll totally do it 2. Is my body thinking what I'm thinking 3. For sure, no be me go carry belle 4. I'm so happy women are considering other birth options 5. Any good surrogacy places in Nigeria, please tag me... I want to do one Nigerian Men - 1. She is so selfish - didn't think of her daughter's emotions 2. Who will now collect her brideprice? 3. What if the donor comes to ask for the child 4. Still she can never understand the joy of giving birth by yourself 5. Women, God gave you vagina to use it and born baby, not just for sex. Make una use it and born, e get why Me: πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„ Emasculated male tears. How I love to see itπŸ₯±πŸ₯±πŸ₯± It's the best ambrosia 😎😎😎
