It’s my 6th consecutive Christmas away from home, and this one hits different. The Christmas season has always been my favourite time of the year, and I always looked forward to every single one of the 16 Christmas holidays I spent with my family before having to leave home in 2016 for study purposes. If …
December. Probably the busiest month of the year in society. The month of December is often characterized by a myriad of activities. The festive aura associated with the Christmas season has everyone on the go as they prepare to celebrate the season with family and friends. Several end-of-the-year events are organized by social communities, churches, …
It is said that a writer’s worst enemy is the blank page… But is the blank page really the enemy? I would naturally want to agree with that notion. At least, it provides me something to blame for my inability to have these blog posts ready until the publish date. I would often spend the …
For today’s blog post, I planned to write on something from my list of preconceived ideas. I sat at my computer past midnight trying to put the post together. After going at it for a while, my mind abruptly wandered off and perched on a thought that instantly got me in my feelings. Somehow, I …

It all started with this post… 1 year, 50 posts, 48000+ words, 50+ subscribers, and over 4000 views later, we’re still going strong like …
Today’s post is a significant one. Firstly, It’s the 50th entry in this space. That means I have practiced the art of showing up 50 different times on here, attempting to communicate value with each appearance. I’m not sure to what extent I have achieved this, but it is a journey I have enjoyed so …
The countdown continues… Just one week left in the month, meaning we’re in the final lap of the Digital declutter experiment (for more details, check this post). I finally got the courage to check the stats for the blog posts this month, and although it’s not totally crickets in here, it’s clear that my online …
We’re past the midpoint of October, with just 2 weeks left in the month. We are left with just 10 complete weeks on the calendar until 2022. It’s probably too early to start talking about next year because a lot can happen in the days between now and the new year. However, I already feel …
