It Could Have Been Anybody

Hello readers, what's up? I'm sure you people know I'm not a gossip blogger but damn! I just had to say something about this Toke's issue. Now I'm really pained because people are blaming the lady. Fine, maybe she might have been at fault, I don't know but is that what she needs right now? Name calling and blames? I normally do not take sides when it comes to controversial issues but you see this one? I'm taking sides with Toke not because she is a lady but because she was wronged!
 Everybody on twitter seems to think cheating is normal for men and quite honestly, that statement goes far in showing the magnitude of complacency that has taken over some people's sense of reasoning. For those who don't know, there is something called a Marriage Vow where you pledge faithfulness to your mate. But then you know the funny part? People have turned the 'for better for worse' against Toke saying she must remain married but nobody told the husband that he should have remain faithful for better for worse o (silly people). I am angry! Yes, infact! I will post this article without proof reading because my blood is 'hot' right now.
   For those who seem to have a bible but do not read it, do you know that the bible allows for divorce on the grounds of adultery? I am not kidding you, read Matthew 5:32. You know it's easy to laugh and point hands at Toke saying she was overly pursuing her career and that can make a man feeling threatened, some are saying she makes up too much but excuse me, was he blind? Didn't he see all that before getting married? Don't get me wrong o, i'm not a die hard Toke fan, in fact I don't follow her on any social network, the only celeb I'm totally for is Genevieve :D Yes that's true. While Toke might have had her own share of mistakes in this, I believe the truth should be said. What is bad is bad! Don't tell me cheating is natural, I will deal with you! If it were your mother you won't take it so easy. And to all those ladies saying she was giving advice when her home was bleeding, let me tell you that her advice is not out of place. I had to go check some out this morning and for real, she says reasonable things. This could have happened to anybody, she just got unfortunate.
  I also remember writing a poem a while ago that women are the number one architect of other women's problems. You see it now? Why, I mean WHY? Should you be co-owning a man? He even has a wife! That's the height of wickedness o. If he loves you so much then he should have married you. Anyways, one part of me tells me that this is a lie, a trick or a publicity stunt! If it ends up being one, LOL I 'll be angry but then, relieved.

The Heartbroken Heartbreaker

It took me how long to write this? Probably a million years! This piece is long overdue! Ladies and gentlemen, especially ladies, please do not feel particularly attacked by this piece. I am trying very hard to be honest. Last night, I thought to myself what my response would be if people ever asked me if I've been heartbroken and before I knew it, I had a long speech about how unserious men can be and how women suffer as a result of this. Then it occurred to me that, in the real sense of things, I have never had my heart broken by anybody. Please, please, please, I am not forming wonder woman or holy than thou, it is the simple truth! I came to this realization because, I noticed that if there was ever a time that I felt terrible emotionally it was because of my own expectations and unrealistic guesses. I really don't like to write things about love and relationship and stuff because it gives my readers too much opportunity to get into my head and sometimes, imagine things ...

3 AM

I woke up at 3 am. This was the best time to do it and get on with life, it was a time without souls on the walkways, just the regular night guards who were now familiar with my work pattern. I woke up at 3 am. Got out of bed and breezed into my silk dress, no underwear. A risky thing to do, considering it improved my chances of getting raped, according to some people. I didn't care. Whoever wanted to rape would rape, with or without my underwear. I woke up at 3 am, got to the kitchen and opened the back door. There, it laid  as usual, in a black thrash bag. I motioned towards it, hesitating for a bit. But why, this was my usual responsinility. I had to clean up over them and get rid of every evidence. Somehow, I felt guilty, a part of the larger evil in the world. I woke up at 3 am, got the 'package' and slid out of the house. I monitored my footsteps closely to avoid noise. I monitored the air to taste for human presence though my nostrils. I monitored everything but ...

To Copy or Not?

*Singing 9ice's 'photocopy no easy, you can never be like me' * Actually, photocopy is easy, and very cheap sef. In Ibadan you can photocopy a page for #2 if you know the right places. Anyway, I'm not here to talk about literal photocopy today but something metaphorical. First, I apologize for being AWOL, it wasn't deliberate. Now, to today's issue. Do you think it's a bad thing to copy people around you? In my opinion, it's not advisable even though it is not totally bad. The reason is simple. It is not bad to want to copy someone if you think that person is a better version of you. However, I think it's wrong to copy a person's every move. In my opinion, you both can be similar but yet different! To illustrate, I will use cake and wine. Cake and wine are similar because they are both edibles, but they are also different. The longer wine stays on the shelf, the better it gets! However, cake is best served hot I think. That is why people call...
