I relate with this poem so i thot i'd share it...
It Takes Courage
It takes strength to be firm,
It takes courage to be gentle.
It takes strength to conquer,
It takes courage to surrender.
It takes strength to be certain,
It takes courage to have doubt.
It takes strength to fit in,
It takes courage to stand out.
It takes strength to feel a friend's pain,
It takes courage to feel your own pain.
It takes strength to endure abuse,
It takes courage to stop it.
It takes strength to stand alone,
It takes courage to lean on another.
It takes strength to love,
It takes courage to be loved.
It takes strength to survive,
It takes courage to live.

Oro sha...Unedited and Unscripted
So much's been happening around the world since i've last visited my 'lil sicily'. Mixture of everything...Good, bad, hmmm not so bad, could've been a lot better kind of things. God help us all.
The top on the list is 'home'...You know 'N' to the 'GR'.
From elections wahala to our supposed leaders flying abroad to 'treat' bruised ankle and tiredness.
From Niger-delta M.I series to the Kids killing themselves on the streets of uk all in the name of God knows what.
From Nations flexing muscles- trying to prove some points to themselves to the daily lives of each and every one of us.
These things i think about- The thoughts attimes make me cringe... Some other times i just want to run away...But to where i ask myself?
Last night, i turned a Man U. fan (But twas only for the night and maybe for the rest of the Copa de European- i had to support someone since my dear arsenal will be cupless this year.
I don't know what i'm typing...don't even know if it makes sense.
Folks ...I'm of to lunch.

Getting up early from bed can be a little hard
I sleep most nights at 3am but I’ve had to change that lately
Got work to do now and I can’t afford to be late
So as always, I’m awake…10 minute before my alarms starts
But I can’t bring myself to get out bed…will have to rest a little while longer
Till I have the strength I need...
To drag myself out bed
To get me towel and walk down the stairs
Can’t even put on the lights ‘cos it’ll sting my eyes
The reflection from the stair is all I need
10 mins and I’m out of the bath
Another 5 and I’m good to go
Walking down the street I say a lil prayer
I sure could use His strength and grace
It is a cold Thursday morning
But the breaking of the day tells me…
It’s definitely gonna be a lovely day

So much's been happening to me this year... and its just only a month old.
First, calls from folks wanting me to 'settle down' and all... I've been receiving loads of calls from aunts and uncles telling me the same thing... 'Iwo omo yii, i jowo lo fe'yawo? When you are in that kind of corner, you'd better be diplomatic with the way you approach and answer such questions. The latest one that happened was two days ago. One of my aunts called to console me on the passing away of her younger sister and my favourite aunt B (love her to bits and its hurts so much) . We talked a little bit about everything, from how she fondly calls me 'Edu' and a couple of theories i can't seem to get my head around when popped up with 'the' question.
My reply: Ewo, mo ti ready bayi (I'm not ready at the moment)
Aunt T: Ki lode (What's the problem?)
Me: Its just that i have plans and marriage is not there at the moment...maybe later.
Aunt: WHAT??? (her husband heard that and grabbed the phone from her hand)
Uncle S: Ki lon so?
Me: Nothing, i'm just saying i will sort things out soon. ( had to call a spade an agricultural implement rather than its actual name)
Uncle: O je tete. So'fe ma ran'mo losi school at 60 ni?
Me: E ma worry... ma sort things out.
Uncle S: You'd better.
... and so the conversation ended.
I really don't understand what's with people and marriage. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying its not a beautiful thing but then, i need to be ready and up for it first now. Abi?
See, I think why they are freaking out is that I'm like the only person not married amongst my friends that 'they' know ( I have 2, maybe 3 good friends(more like brothers) and they are all married now).
I am of the opinion that when the time comes, things will fall in place. I really i'm not in a hurry ...
just want to enjoy each day as it comes with its own share of happyness and pain; Joy and hurt; ... a lil bit of this and that which make us all exist.
When the time comes...
