My Suicide Story.

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

Was I Just Rejected? Me??

Hello dearest people in the universe. I'm not flattering you, your being dear and special to God makes you the dearest of all 😉. I'd like to share a feeling which I've been fighting with and winning for a while with you. In my short stay here on earth, I realised that everyone I've come across has at one time or the other struggled with that feeling in particular. I'm talking about the feeling of rejection . Rejection happens when you don't get what you think you truly deserve even after trying every possible way to upgrade your relations which covers your actions, words and thoughts. Mind you, the above discussion is mine; I didn't check the dictionary for it. Sometimes, when this feeling occurs in the course of an event with a dear one or a respected person, it leaves me withdrawn from every other activities with that person or situation which isn't the best option always. Formerly, when such happened, I'd shut off like NEPA 💡 or like i

My Mum Was Right After all.

“You've grown lean again. You've started fasting again, abi?” “You should have gbo jo ara(her yoruba word for fat in the body of a lady).” Whenever my Mum goes on and on about my petite stature like that, it takes my dad to save me from her; and of course, yours truly will be rolling her eyes like that of a doll baby. 😉 I never believed my Mum's theory of being too slim until three days ago. 😂 Good day everyone, trust you are fine and bouncing? As for me, God is keeping His babe very well. So, to how I found out about mum being right, right? Do you remember the post on mouth accident? Not to worry, kindly refresh your memory of it  here. On that post, I said I have the privilege of being a gospel music minister, due to that reason, I'd have to do some vocal exercises and vocal therapies to stay musically fit. Intuitively, I picked up a voice therapy some few weeks back and was very religious with it; I mean, I did it everyday for those few weeks, 😂.

My Muscles Contracted!

Hullo everyone! How're you all doing today? How did your weekend go? As for me, I had a sowing weekend, lol; I know you're thinking what that is, right? I'll give you the definition later. 😉 You all remember Dez, right? Should you need a reminder about my story on Dez, or you probably haven't read about him, you can do that  here.  Guess what? Dez and I are back as friends; in fact, we talk like true old pals. It actually happened that we coincidentally relocated to the same environment, and one thing led to the other, we got talking; although boring and very diplomatic at first, we seem to be doing very well now. Turned out that I told him about my church, RCCG City of Champions, he came, liked the service; smiles, he even saw someone he likes and would love to pursue closeness with--- as usual, I pray him all the best. 😊 So, to the gist of today, sometimes last week, I got to that threshold of worry that led me to the depth of ungratefulness; this was due to

I Went To Tarshish.

Hello people, it's sure been a long time, right? It's funny how people say they are coming in a short while and the short while runs into a normal while and eventually a long while; of course, this doesn't exclude me too: my apologies guys! In the course of my ‘short absence’, life happened to me, and I sure happened to life; I'm assuming you want to know what I meant by that, right? Hang on, you sure will. I remembered telling us at a particular time that I couldn't update us on daily basis about my wakas(activities) because of tight work schedules, right? At that period, it actually got tighter till I could hardly have time for myself. At that time, I worked sometimes 2 Saturdays, sometimes 3 in a month depending on the way things were at the office. Coupled with that, I had a new boss who had a different but interesting approach to life and things. At first, it was difficult to work with him as I felt he had the stick always ready to be used and the carrot
