Many a times, I want to express myself via writing. By God’s grace, I know I’m an articulate writer. I express myself better when writing than speaking. However, as soon as I set my mind to write, the enthusiasm drops and I’m wondering why I wanted to write. Some other times, I’m also thinking that what I want to write might be private.  You see, I’m privileged to have certain private and dynamic relationships with different kind of people. As such, I’m being careful of writing what will make these people think I’m writing about them. At the same time, I love being private - I also wouldn’t want to write and the smart Peeps in my corner add one plus one to make eleven. Lol.  Many reasons, right? Is it just me? Am I thinking too much? Am I caring too much? Am I too concerned? Am I am I? 🙈 Let’s go into what we have for us today. You see, sometime in the year 2021, my phone was stolen. That was like the third phone that got missing within the space of three years. Unfortunately...

Hey Guys!!! How have you been in the last few days and how has Nigeria been to you? Rather, lol, how have you been to Nigeria? And yes, happy children's day, everyone; y’all are children of God, right? Before I delve into the gist for today o, I need your advise; and I'm very serious about it. Since this week commenced, my morning hunger pangs have really increased 😔. Honestly, when I'm yet to eat in the morning, I feel lightheaded and somewhat weak. It hasn't been like this for a long while. What's happening na? Is it a weather thing? If you have answers, please, drop it in the comment session. E da Kun (please)🙈 To today's gist, due to one of the hunger sessions I had yesterday, I had to calm my nerves with Ewa Agoyin (beans and sauce made by the Agoyins. To know a little about the Agoyins, please, click here ) and yam. Ewa Agoyin with fried ripe plantain.  Picture credit: Pinterest Fast forward till afternoon when I was hungry again, I settled after so many...

Hello people of wonder, How are you doing today? (So, in my mind, I’m asking you with a british accent, kindly respond in a british accent too🙈). Talking about accents, I like to come across people who don't fake accents, sometimes, I upgrade my accents talking with them. There are some good fakers, and yes, there are some terrible fakers who even commit grammatical blunders with their accents. Lolz! Have you met any like that? I've met a couple of some, and they can be pretty annoying... Let's delve into the gist for today; something happened at my place of work. I got to work that morning with so many things on my mind to do; quickly, I started to pick up my tasks one after the other. In the midst of that, a colleague asked me a question that I can't honestly remember now. However, I remember part of the response I gave her. I told her, “Can’t you see...?” I was on a call when I said that, afterwards, the Holy Spirit didn't allow me peace. He instructed...

Wonderful People of God! How're we doing today? And how did the service go at our respective churches yesterday? Mine was beautiful and colourful as we had our family carnival. I had great fun cheering some of my team members from my corner. To the gist of today(it's a long read but very interesting),  anyone who claims to be close to me must know that I don't really fancy rice as food; in fact, at home, I'd rather go for morsels than rice. However, there's a twist to this🙈😉-- clears throat, I really like party jollof rice💃 . You see, there are some life events that really excites me; they are weddings and naming ceremonies. The reasons aren't far-fetched, it is an introduction of a totally new beginning and of course, the party rice that comes with these events. So, there are these beautiful blood of Jesus sisters of mine. Let's call them Ukot and Anra respectively. So it happened that someone was to have her child's naming ceremony, of cour...

Dearest people, trust we are fine and bouncing today. Did you miss me? 😉 I have something on mind I'd like to share quickly. I'm not sure I'm able to recount exactly how I feel about it, but I'll say it still. When I'm in a relationship with anyone, I do it with all my heart such that if any misunderstanding occurs between us, I need to practically take a walk and talk it out with God to help me with my emotions. So, is this particular with me only? If it isn't, how do you cope with yours? How do you manage your emotions when your loved ones are concerned? How do you make yourself more understandable? I have so many questions actually, but, God is over all. So, to the gist about our topic, I was staying with a big friend of mine who has her bathroom and toilet outside her room. On that beautiful Sunday morning, she woke me up at few minutes past 6 am to prepare for Sunday service. In my bid to be fast and proper with it, I took my phone along to have li...

Hello dear friends, it's been a more than three days something, right? Please, pardon me; many chips came down at almost the same time, however, I specifically thank God for the grace He's blessed me with, and the people builders He deliberately placed around me for such a time as this! So, let's  go into the gist of tonight: In the year 2017, I became friends with Tolu Josh(real name) during a youth national convention. We grew into being good friends from the casual level things. He probably would have liked that we went past the platonic stage, but I didn't take too much notice. Some months into our friendship, my phone was stolen and I had to use a makeshift phone. During the time I used the makeshift, Tolu called to check on me having not heard from me for a while. I picked the call, did like I knew it was him and appreciated him. I did that because I'd eventually know the person las las 😂. Afterwards, I went further and saved his name on the makeshift as ...

Hullo everyone, it's been some days, right? Happy new month! 💃 💃 Please, pardon me; your gist partner has been involved in some profitable somethings. 😂 Let's dive straight to the gist of today. Anyone really close to me knows that after choosing a plate of beans accompanied with soaked gari(cassava flakes), one of the best gifts you can give me is a journal and a pen. Whoosh! I will pray for the person from my heart, tell everyone about that person and scream in pure delight. It so happened that a very dear friend of mine, let's call him Dee, has a very fine orange coloured journal that I fell in love with. I have a general love for journals, but this particular one caught my eye. I did all I could for Dee to gift me that journal o, but no, he didn't buy any of it. So, I gave up and continued to use my diary for everything I needed to write. Mind you, Dee is a poet, a scribbler and a many other something person. In the course of the past week, I was gisting ...

Hello dearest people! I'm excited to be here today to give you a peek into my daily waka. I'm sure the excitement is mutual, right?  Before we go into the gist of today, I'd like to share a great stuff that happened to me this week with y'all. I was in the church some 48 hours ago to meet up with a dear friend. On my arrival, I saw that a rescue mission was ongoing for some abandoned poor kittens. Of course, I didn't join them at first; I sat and watched while they deliberated on how to get the last kitten out of a long standing  rectangular box it had fallen into. At first, I watched them, then, I decided to participate in helping out. Do you know what I did? After the men had tried out all the tricks to bring out the kitten but couldn't, I, lepacious Esther, volunteered to go into the box to bring out the kitten. Lol. The only way to that box was through the roof. It was a bit daunting at first, buuuut, by God's special grace, 😂 , your girl di...
