WHAT IS YOURS!!

-


 I have the habit of saving random pictures I come across on the internet (pinterest and co) from memes, quotes to pictures from spongebob cos, who doesn't? The above picture is one I find myself taking some thought to whenever I scroll through my gallery.
It feels more like a conflict of thoughts most times. On one hand, in an alternate time line, I could have subscribed to this school of thought but everytime I find this picture, I think otherwise.
What's yours would find you. Sounds fair, doesn't it? But then, how would what is yours find you if you don't put yourself in the position to be found? Sure, at times things come looking for you but more often than not, we fail to realize that there are some little things that would have been done in the past to put us at that spot at the time "ours" decided to come find us.
What's yours would find you but what's yours won't be glad seeing you lazing around when it comes.
This is not to say I don't believe certain things are just meant to be. Or that there's no such thing as fate or destiny. The main thought is: certain acts, little and big go a way in signalling what is yours to come. These same acts ensure that we are ready to receive what is ours when it finally comes.
These catalysts take different forms and sizes varying per person but still, I'm of the opinion that they are necessary to pave a way for what is yours to come. Not sure if I'm still making sense but, there you have it.

Undiluted thoughts,

  Hello peeps, how has the month been? I’ve been playing coward for a while now, let me tell you why. I read a book some weeks back—which I stumbled upon by the way—and I was like it’s something I’d like to make a blog post about but I have been “shifting post” ever since. I have decided to take the bull by the horns and do it anyways.     Hmm!! Where do I start? Okay, this book I’m talking about is titled VIOLENCE written by FESTUS IYAYI and I’d say it was a good—real good—read. The time in which the story was set wasn’t really stated but I figure it was set sometime in the 70s going but the copyright and an account somewhere in the book. The storyline spans roughly 2-3 weeks, my guess being right.     The plot revolves basically around two couples, one affluent and the other poverty stricken. The story tells of the things that being poor can make one do and things that the affluent can use to lure the poor as well. It also shows how manipulative some rich folks can be, going b

GROWING UP BIG FOOT

Howdy mates!!!! Over the past week, I found myself brainstorming on what to write next for this blog. Honestly, blogging the way I do (writing articles) can be much of a work at times. Some days, I just sit in front of my screen, staring blankly, with no idea on what exactly to write about. Other days, I could have numerous ideas floating in my head, sometimes, I’m lucky enough to get most of them down and fleshed up, other times, I get to just a couple and the rest fly away or just don’t seem as interesting as the initial thought. Today’s post is several years old but it still rings true and possesses the same initial vibe it had. And, guess what? It is not as particularly serious as my last couple of posts have been--just something on a lighter note. I currently stand somewhere between  5ft 9’ and 5ft 10’ and by NBA standards, I’m nothing near tall (probably been seeing too many NBA games of recent). Away from the giants and back to the real world, I’m somewhere above average he
