Life Happenstances

Wow, what a night or day it has been so far.😲😲😲😲😲

 The accompanying screenshot of my WhatsApp status at 2.25 am is self-explanatory.

I believe a tech glitch occurred on the app and my phone, and voila, some involuntary happenstances.

I had been awake to tidy up on some work with so much gusto...yet the unexpected happens, life happens and a SHIFT takes place.

I am reminded timely too, to be mindful of shift on regularly, as life itself is lived on a  daily basis in order for us to THRIVE and ride the waves, adjusting the sails.

Was I frazzled, yes and could not sleep till the wee hours of the morning, trying to get it fixed, yet an usual stillness filled my heart, that with every messy situation, a message can be birthed: newness beckons.

The Village Forum

In view of the acts of nurturing which we recently discussed vis-a-vis parenting, these cut across our various villages, communities, groups, etc., there is a need to take a look at the Power of Communal Support in a Fast-Changing World - as the world is now recognized as a global village.  Once upon a time (time, time) our elders in the African folklore settings passed across timeless truth, values, proverbs, etc in the most engaging ways with songs, dramas and dances.  All of these buttress the fact, in real time either in motherland Africa or so many other parts of the world that indeed *“It takes a village to raise a child”*.  This is not just a cute quote - it was a lived reality.  Grandmas were the bedtime story-tellers.  Grandpas helped with homework in the local dialects and history subjects.  Aunties were your backup moms.  Uncles doubled as career advisors (with or without your expressed requests).  Neighbours? Let us just sa...

🎉 Celebrating Fathers and Father Figures: The Unsung Nurturers

Image
Hmmmmmmm, not all nurturers are biological relations...,they do show up in different sizes, shapes etc, not one size fits all.  It is another day to celebrate a group of special persons, who get to be overlooked more often than not all year round (these ones who may not always say much, but their presence is very much loud in impact). As we mark yet another Father’s Day, we take a moment to spotlight the often unsung but deeply powerful role of men as nurturers — not just in title, but in consistent actions. Whether it is the biological dad who shows up at school events, the uncle who quietly pays fees, the foster father who stands firm as a safe place, or even that thoughtful older cousin who always checks in - these men shape lives in ways that linger long after childhood. Nurturing is not only about hugs and lullabies, rather it is - ...sometimes, the reassuring “I've got you,” - …the lifted eyebrow that says “you can do better,” - …the silent sacrifices made without...

More Nurturing...

My personal nurturing went up a few notches over the Easter Break - reflecting on the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ with personal persons (5 - 13 years family members)  'Bella - Omobolanle mi owon - sent these across via WhatsApp, after exchange of chats, voice-notes and video calls. These got me all teary eyed. Love you too darling and ready for today's conversation (the school holiday is not over yet 😊😊😊😊😊).  🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
