We now have a generation that is growing up believing they’re the only ones who are imperfect and struggling. As though failure, betrayal, struggles, disease, injuries, lack, stains, death, etc. are not all part of what life is.
If you ask me, storytelling isn’t about sounding smart, being right, or appearing flawless. Neither is it about getting likes nor rewards. It’s as simply…
Going back to the year 2020—it was lockdown + death anxiety for me. I was tired of being stuck indoors, tired of the voices in my head telling me I was going to die soon. So when a friend invited me to some church, I tagged along, hoping for a change of scene.

Maybe beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but I have often ended up being friends with one of the hottest or most intelligent ladies wherever … Read more
Ever wondered why some Clergymen cheat on their partners or launder money while some drug addicts are honest or hardworking? Well, being great in one aspect of our lives doesn’t mean we will be great in other areas. Just as Cristiano Ronaldo is a football legend but may suck at singing, so also we all … Read more
