About Me

My photo
My life is my life and I will not trade it for anything except Christ, even saying that I still ask for strength on a daily basis to live by it. Life itself is a roller coaster with fluctuating emotions such as pain, agony, victory, defeat, so on and so forth. However, I believe it is the uncertain situations in life that shape us into the individuals we are today and are to become. Basically, what I am trying to say is, your past can shape and influence the future in a major way. My real name in translation means “Born in Wealth.” I was born in Lagos, Nigeria in the year of the Dragon and as far as I can remember, it’s been a bumpy ride. Growing up in Nigeria was intense and a bit tedious, for lack of better words. It is a “No padi for jungle” time zone, with the motto of “Shine your eye,” which pretty much adds up to "every man for himself." It is a place where everyone wants to go to heaven, however, no one wants to die to get there. Growing up as a child, I learned a lot through folktales and such. I remember sitting by the burning firewood at night listening to my grandmother's stories of enlightenment. These stories had morals that shaped my thinking and mentality today.

One second you are here


One second you are here, the next you are gone
Those who love and care for you begin to mourn
Unexpected occurrences happen like a deadly roads turn
Many settle ! a pay cheque for their lives they pawn
Question, did you spend your time, time wasting?
Or did you make disciples of all nations
Did you live in strife, hatred, deceit having no love?
Did you do what you wanted to do, ignoring God?
Did you store your treasures on earth?
Did you live in your fleshly ways living in a curse or worst?
Life is but a vapor, a stop over
Stop giving your neighbor the cold shoulder
Introduce him to Jehovah, onward Christian soldier
If you are the Key, Jesus is the Key holder
So be bolder and  sober...
Whose side are you on?
Remember time waits for no one
One second you are here, the next you are gone
