Differently wired

Hey Ninjas,  SONG PICK : BUY A HEART BY Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill . I am here again in a sorry attempt to turn this into a two-day writing streak, and hopefully, it will get my creative writing juices flowing. I called it a sorry attempt because I have not come up with a topic to write about, so I am just here to ramble on about the things I have been up to while I have been away. I changed the font there for a moment, but I assure you it will only be a temporary fix unless I fall in love with the new font. Then well, in that case, I  would like to welcome you all to a new era:) (just kidding, I hope) Anyway, while I was away, sometime in mid-last year, I decided to embark on a spiritual journey. It was not necessarily the type of spiritual journey my mother would recommend, but I know that it was both a journey and spiritual for me nonetheless. During this journey, the whole purpose of it was to gain back control of my life. For a moment, it felt like it was s...

 Hey,  I do not think I know how to start here anymore. It has been quite a long time since I wrote from my self accustomed safe place. I would admit there is a melanchonious vibe to this whole post or should I say nostalgia. ( I am not sure melanchonious is even a word, but I do hope you all understand what I am getting at) I had no plans to write here today, absolutely no plans at all, yet here I am.  I had just decided to turn on my laptop, and maybe write a new chapter for my book which I have been haphazardly working on lately, if I am being entirely honest. (I have kind of been feeling strange lately ) Just while I was surfing through the net, I somehow managed to find myself here. I saw the last time I made a post was on my birthday last year. I also saw that I had made an apology post before that about how I would be more consistent here, but typing this now with Finding hope serenading the air around me talking about how he wished he was more than friends, I real...

Theme song Hey guys🥺 Just click on the song link and read✨ But if the link doesn’t work for you, the theme song for today is : “Stupid deep” by Jon Bellion. Today I met your daughter, Again. I couldn’t help thinking how everything was different now from the last time. And the last time wasn’t even that long ago. You wanted her to have everything that life offers,only at it’s best. You wanted to be present for her every firsts, both good and bad. Doesn’t it feel strange to you now that you can’t personally do anything to shape her life, after all the plans you made. I can tell you now that she will be a  remarkable kid and an even wonderful adult, but I’m sure you knew that already. I could tell you I will try to look after her for you, but I’m only human. You didn’t know me prior to this moment, and I’m sure your family will find it strange if I suddenly butt into their quiet lives. Isn’t it sobering to realize that you can’t be here to guide her the way you h...

click here🎶🎵🎵 Hi people, I hope this post reaches you well😅 Before I continue with what I have to say, I will like to clarify that I am actually a feminist. This article isn’t coming from a place of darkness and hatred that has become the home from which our 21st century feminist operate, but I’m hoping I bring a little light into that dark house we have chosen to call home. I do not understand why being a “supposed feminist” has to come with so much bitterness and an overly compulsive obsession to prove a point.  It is not  supposed to be a battle for women against the world and you do not have to bash and drag anyone who doesn’t see the world like you do ( unless of course the person is a misogynistic imp, then by all means do your thing).   I have never really been the normal overly enthusiastic feminist you would see today, probably because I have never had the reason to be aggressive about it.  I come from a family where even as the youngest of five kids and...

Hello my darlings👀 Click here for theme song Once upon a time during the course of the year, i lost my way somewhere. I do not know at which point I lost it, all I know is that when I finally got ahold of myself, i was roaming through a landscape of a mental desert. A place where I had no ideas, thoughts or any form of inspiration.  For the first time in my life, I had not just an intellectual  dry patch but also a writer’s dry spell.  I had no idea of what to write and most importantly I had no abstract thought to fuel my writing. If you were thinking these happened for just a few days, then you have no idea what I’m talking about. It was a four months journey of just  simply existing and nothing else. I unintentionally detached myself from the world in entirety but for what reason, I had no idea.  I didn’t even have music to give me solace, just to tell you how serious my state of existing inertia was. It was like I watched the entire world through a safe dis...

Heyyy Warriors 👀, Song pick: Born Tired - Jhené Aiko Audiomack Link P.S : I love this song,  or more like I love jhené Aiko, she always brings an effortless soothing vibes to her songs. Well we all know what a condescending tone means, so I'm not even going to go off on a definition spree. But if for an entirely reasonable reason you do not know😌, that's okay, either you look it up before you continue reading, or you stay closely with me while I write, I'm sure you will get the concept before I'm done here. Now when it comes to words, or more specifically when it comes to sensitivity to mean words I like to think of myself as thick skinned. Well given the family I come from, you just have to be that way. We were all given the privilege to adapt into armour wearing Word Ninjas, where the shield can ricochet shitty languages directed at us.( yea I come from a long line of great men and women, I'm sure you must have sensed it by now) . But here is the th...

Hello My Stealth Ninjas ,  Song  Pick: Gang Gang  - Migos. Audiomack Link Let's talk about another form of humans dear to my heart. THE MAGNETS.  See this time, My mum brought these kind of humans to my attention and I can only wonder what made her come up with the concept of a human born with a magnetic star. The humans with the magnetic stars are those who you would say attracts attention or interests but most times more often than not, they do not want it. The operative word for these group is "effortlessness". When they walk into a room, all heads don't turn like the way you see in the movies, neither do jaws drop like when a hot chick or dude enters a room, nah its nothing like that. This time the aura is much more subtle, and the intrigue slowly spreads like it is contagious. The first person's interest is piqued, gradually and honestly quite slowly every one is suddenly smitten for an unknown reason. They are liked and most times adored by liter...

Hi Humans, SONG PICK FOR THE DAY: All my friends - Dermot Kennedy  Link to Song Pick Have you ever met a person and they strike you to be nothing but chaos, yet in the midst of their chaos, they seem to be protected ( imagine a person sitting at the eye of hurricane if you must, to help you get a mental picture ) Well yea, this has to be my favourite kind of humans. My Dad describes them as irresponsibly lucky humans. He also told me that in our native language, there is a term for them which when I loosely translate it, it comes off as " the grasshopper that the hen rejected ". ( ukpara okuko juru )😂. Now imagine this ( story tiiiiiiiime ): some where in a land with details oblivious to man yet he is an existing part of it, there is a family of birds preferably the local chicken, and they have been having a bad day due to the scorching effect of the sun. They haven't really had enough to eat, but then again they never eat much unless they see what to eat. Y...

Hi Ninjas,   Song pick: The lion sleeps Tonight - The Lion king ( 😅😅 yoo, I just had to do this, the song is a classic) Link for easy access to the Song Pick Some one asked a question at the comment section of my last post, and after my attempts to reply, I ended up giving directions to this post. ( Hehe, you have no idea the kind geek you just unleashed, but since you asked amma just get right to it, get it off my chest yunno😁.. ) I had to pull out my glasses for this one . I said last time that dreams are the manifestation of our subconscious, details of the day that come out to play while we are asleep, and this led our anonymous friend to ask the question " if dreams were about past activities, why do people talk about dreams coming through?" Before I jump out to try and answer that question, allow me to go off a little and share some things I know from my huge head. For you to understand how the human mind works you have to start from the top and work you...

HI NINJAS,  ( *drum rolls*) pleaseeeeee😙 Song pick: BELIEVER - Imagine Dragons  I had a dream last night. It was the kind of dream that made you confirm that you had Malaria, and for me that was the nail in the coffin I needed to start treatment. I couldn't tell my mum about the dream because it was the kind that had very suspicious details that she just can't ignore. I had no plan to write about this, I just wanted to put it down as soon as possible before the spirit that feeds on the details of our dreams comes to take it away from my memory. Even as I write this, I feel most of the scenes become blurry in my head, so I reckon she has come for me now. After my very graphically detailed dream, I woke up quiet impressed as to what I can unconsciously create, Nonetheless I found it funny and at the same time disturbing. Just as in the mysterious land of dreams, you can't tell what time of the day it was but you just know it. It was around dusk in mine, I cou...

So in the spirit of taking baby steps, or rather creating a solid foundation for myself here, I decided to write from my comfort zone or more like writing about it. While off the top of my head writing from my comfort zone would have been to write about something sad, deep or rather disturbing for the common Man, I decided to go a bit off to what really creates the zone. Music. You could argue that music couldn't be a comfort zone, but I think otherwise. Technically speaking, a comfort zone is a level at which one functions with familiarity and ease. Now that we have established a definition from a very reliable dictionary, maybe you might agree that Music can be a comfort zone. For every phase of my life, a song is attached to it. For every experience, there is a song to drive it home. I can never over emphasize the importance of a playlist. And by playlist I don't just mean the one you have in your phone or laptop or whatever gadget you possess, I also...

Hi people, there was supposed to be an introductory piece,I had it written once already, but for some reason, it didn't make it here. I'm going to try to recreate what was lost, but I highly doubt it would be as awesome as the first, but here goes nothing. "Differently wired" is going to be for me a sort of social experiment. I haven't done anything of this sort before, neither have I been this motivated to try something of this sort. With that being said, I think it's safe to tell you that I myself can't clearly tell you what to expect. What I can tell you for now is that the mind is a crazy place, so I would tell you to expect something "not ordinary" ;-) We all have a method to our madness, so I apologise in advance if maybe I do not meet your personal standards for instability. For you see there is a fine line between creative madness and mental illness. I could try to satisfy your methods, but at the end of the day, you m...
