Hello from the other side?

-
Hello.
I knocked at your door for so long
But had to leave.
Perhaps the long awaited answer could have sufficed
Perhaps not.
But light would have been shed on the path ahead
And more so,on the path we thought we'd left behind.
The way into the holy of holies
Can never be open
Until all that is the past and present is truly torched...
And it will be.
For nothing less sill stand.

A walk down the road
A walk down the past
A walk down memory lane
An open can of worms
A bait for catching the morrow
The beginning of healing
A journey into wholeness.
A journey into truth...
Freedom.

How can you truly love without these?
How can you love another
Without a proper definition
Of your relationship with Christ?
For u can only love as much as he has shown you...
I'm gone now...
With my words,
And my tears....
And you'd be gone
In pursuit of something you know not
And still you think you do.

I'm humbled by it all
And I don't have to have words.
Not for you, but for me
For your life cannot be more pressing to me
Than to you...
Except.....well, maybe I have seen something?
Maybe.

And maybe it's best you go...
Maybe you will learn from there
To see you clearly
And appreciate other's efforts.
The most important thing is to learn
It just doesn't have to be through me.

Can I see the war?

-
There's a war out there that doesn't care about my feelings or struggles.  It is a war.  Its aim is to destroy. Frodo and company were chosen irrespective of their grievances.  They had to put sentiments and grievances aside to fight a common enemy. The key is together. An agreement. A fellowship. The Body Else the purpose of the company is lost; and we be earthly praised but eternally useless. We must never forget that our fellowship was beyond us;  but divinely orchestrated for a purpose.  That should be enough for me. Again, The key is together. An agreement. A fellowship. The Body Else, the purpose of the company is lost; and we be earthly praised but eternally useless.

THE BEAST IN EVERY MAN

-
The beast is in every man All it waits for is an opportunity to present itself And the other side is manifested. It's so easily suppressed when opportunity is far Yet easy to point at another and criticize When his own opportunity is near. But time and chance happens to every man. What is in man will be made manifest. I have made this mistake far too many times. You have insulted me far more than anyone I have known. I can point to your speck because I have conquered my log. I have seen the beast in me and it is easy to recognize in another, even if suppressed. It is the way. The only way. It is the way of love. It is the way of empathy. It is the place of wisdom. It is never the place for knowledge. Knowledge still has a lot to learn without knowing it does.  Knowledge is light that has not become one with you. It is selfish. It puffs up. It thinks its way is the way things should be done. This is why it will always think it knows, and seeks for the praise of man...

The longest 2 weeks

-
20/10/2020 The date many will not forget in a while. A very significant date to many youths in Nigeria.  That was the day I put to bed. In the midst of that chaos, I had my own personal crisis. I had a c-section. And it was successful. I had my husband with me through the surgery.... I heard your voice telling me to stay awake. You said it repeatedly, "Babe. Please stay awake for me. I beg you. Please don't go to sleep". And you held my hand and soothed my forehead just to keep me calm. And it was all I needed at that time....or so I thought until I saw the tiny being that was just extracted from my belly, wrapped up in a green cloth and screaming at the top of his lungs. Then, I knew there was always room for more. All I felt at that instant was love and gratitude.  The wait to reconnect with you and the baby was a totally different process.  And then not being able to move for almost a whole day didn't make it any easier. Little did I know what was to come.  There ...
