On God


Things you see and of course, no other choice than to believe there is an engineer (God) that orchestrated it. It can't have been by chance. It's not a matter of belief. There has to have been a being that crafted this so intricately that it exists as such...

Why I never tilted to atheism. Cos this universe is so infinite that it doesn't even make sense how we exist. Like my brain doesn't comprehend the vastness of this world.

So why doesn't God stop all this inhumanity going on. Well that's cos God has been here for eons. 

What concern supernatural being and what we plebians are doing. If we want to destroy shit up, let's continue on that downward trajectory. When shit goes to naught, God will create new beings. Maybe ours are a bad experiment and he's just observing us so when we eventually blow up this universe, then some parts of the brain that causes us to be so terrible as humans will be removed.

So I suppose I'm more apathetic towards religion as a belief. Like it's there. Sometimes I say God abeg. Majority of times, I don't. It is what it is.

But my stance on this is.

God is in the vastness of the galaxy. In the surmountable depth of the ocean. In the beauty of nature. Ever changing like the cycle of the seasons. Shines brighter than the sun. Uncountable like the twinkling stars. As unstoppable as a raging volcano. As unforgiving as a horrid storm. 

But God is also the steady rhythm of the rain, the calmness in the serenity of the night. The finality when we close our eyes to death.

Constant. All and around us. 

We can't understand this being cos our brain lack the capability to even comprehend. We are too minuscule in the scheme of things to predict the character, so of course, we can only remain humble in God's presence. And be aware of our fragility and ordinariness as humans compared to the omni- that he embodies.

I wager God would be exasperated by the human beings created be wrecking havoc in the world he painstakingly built from the greatness of his person. Of people dictating dogmas based on what they think is right. 

And no, no Holy Spirit arrested me to wax lyrical. Anytime I'm mildly critical of organised religion, I get questions surrounding what did the church do to me?

I genuinely just got tired of the whole church and christianity dogma. None of us actually knows anything, especially with death and all. We can't ever comprehend and maybe some of us need that faith to keep us tethered to make sense of life and existence. Me I don't need the faith. I can see clearly, thank you very much. I just thank the Lord for good health and I keep it moving. 


And there you have it ladies and gentlemen. You don't have to be scared of AI cos the neurons in your brain have been crafted so beautifully by your maker, that you just need to continue unleashing its potential.

On building JavaScript without help - 1

I know, I have not garnered the expertise YET That I'm very much, still a beginner in web development But it doesn't make me feel any less sad. Because when I follow along tutorials, I grasp what the instructor is doing. And I code along with them However, when push comes to shove (as it did this afternoon, I'm stuck) However, I'm not going to beat myself up, cos I actually succeeded in creating a toggle on the DOM And I'd been wrapping my head around how I did those.  Of course, I know this is a progress, and I tried. And I created something without following along instructions. I'm just recording this here, so I'd reminisce over how I'd felt. At how "slow" I'd felt at this point, this day. I still have a long way to go. But I console myself with the fact that 5 months ago, I didn't know what the hell "a variable" was I was unable to link my stylesheet cos I didn't know how to add a folder A month ago, I didn't know h...

Notions (Today)

Today was something else. Tiring but well spent. (8/8/2019) My first class by 7, and we ran to Political science Dept as it was raining. I didn't really stay through the lectures, it was occupied. I took some shots cos I felt I was dressing cool and all. From there, I went back to the department and my friends and I decided to go to the market to measure the clothes my friends and I would wear for our departmental night. On reaching to the market, to the shop where we could buy materials. Ifechukwu and I bargained for the price. I surprised myself the more with how vocal I was about selection of the material to wear and the bargaining. From there, we got to the place where we measured the clothes, we received biscuits from the people on the line as one was celebrating birthday. It was there I learnt my cloth size as I hadn't measured in a while. We were en route coming back and Ifechukwu saw a place where "bell" was open. She saw an opportunity to buy cloth she w...

Be awake

 While you're yet to discover your passion/purpose in future, can you just learn simple handy skills to have (just in case)... I know we've said since time immemorial not to pressure anyone or to rest from lockdown, but going with the state of this country, it's of utmost importance that you awake from your slumber. The time for sleeping is gone - over. You should be wide awake by now. This country is a mess... We are on our own. So as you're yet to discover the passion/purpose you should have, try and learn something significant. Learn Google and MS suites - at least even if you no learn anything to do now. Many Undergraduates cannot even navigate as little as MS Word. They don't know what index is, Text alignment, Pagination, etc... Not to talk of the other suites. In my case, I mastered Google docs when my friend (in another location) asked me to create play drama.  Prior to then, I didn't know you can edit and review comments in the application. And that was...
