Art, Act or just be an actor in the game of life.

By


Thing about life is this….

It's dynamic!

The wheels are constantly rolling
Whether you are pedalling or not.

It is up to you to work it manually or leave it to roll by itself and end up where ever fate decides.

But know this…

Whether you peddle or not, life will move on autopilot.

If your move isn’t going according to plan.

Don’t change the plan.

Change the methods.

When I was little, we used to play a game called change your style, another style, another style, and then be like that.

The goal was to be as comfortable as you can be when stopped, until you are asked to resume by changing styles.

We didn’t change the game when the style we took was discomforting.

We waited until the opportunity to take a different style was open, then we changed our styles.

Growing up now, I realize the lesson that game taught.

It was far deeper than any classroom lesson ever taught.

The goal is to change the tool, change your friends, change your house, change your job, change your dressing, change your church, change your partners, and even change your mind and reasoning, but never the plan!

Isn’t life funny?

Look at us Christians, we all know the world will end with the apocalypse beginning from the rapture, right?

Yet whether we stay hidden, refusing to come outside so we won’t sin.

Or live carelessly until the end of days.

One thing is certain, what will be will be.

The plan remains heaven or hell.

But how we art, act and react to life’s situations and circumstances matters a lot towards how our end will be.

The end is coming whether you like, believe or see it.

It will come.

How do you want to end?

Better, worse or ordinary?

How do you want your end?

Cold, hot or medium?

Or right back where you started?

Or maybe it’s time to change your style, if you aren’t comfortable with the current one.

Change your style or just be like that.

Art, Act or just be an actor in the game of life.

But be rest assured, a role will be picked for you, irrespective of your actions and decisions.

The power is in your methods.

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

Solomon's Lair!

By
Rated 18 Solomon's lair  I almost refused to go for the birthday party this year. Solomon always hosted a party every year, and as usual, I always gave the opening speech and acted as the MC too. I hated the drama and fake smiles all around. Each year, new faces present, old faces absent. New Friends present, Old friends lost, only me stagnant. I was always present as the best friend, the loyal soldier, meanwhile I was notoriously known for not celebrating my own birthday. It was so bad that most of my friends didn't even know my date of birth, just my age. Yes, it was that bad! It was an exhausting exercise for me. The cake and speeches, by God I hated the hypocrisy. So this year I swore to him by the old gods and new, that I wasn't gonna be in the spotlight of his special day. I just wanted to drink and chill quietly in solitude. Surprisingly, without any fuss, he obliged me. ''Obi is now a man o'' I smiled. ...

Riotous Love

By
I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
