Letter I

In the spirit of talking on friends. For there to be a balance we gatz talk about bad friends.
Peep this Asa's lyrics on Ore. (Friend) because Asa is always bae 💕💕

Ma ya lé mi iwo orè atojubo onilé
Ma ya lé mi iwo orè agbok'oloko
Ma ya lé mi awon orè adugbo
Ma ya lé mi ma ya lé k'omo

Orè ti mo mu bi aburo
Orè, orè ti mo sé daara dara
Orè ti mo fi nu hun
Owa daami o tumi sita

Odabi oro ano
Bi oro ano

Don't come to my house,
Iwo orè éké adugbo
Don't come to my house,
Iwo orè adaléru
Maya lé mi, orè kofeniferé
Maya lé mio maya lé rara

Isè ni mo wa lojo yi o
Oko t'o fèmi si lè
Ko ku lo wa sè sé
La won mejéji, won bèrè isé kusé
Won wuma omodé, won sé wun won

Odabi oro ano
Bi oro ano

Ewa wo ija lo jo yen
Ewa wo éro ton tu ta
Ewa wo ara lojo yen
Ejé rée ni le

Ma ya le mi toro iyo
Ma ya le mi toro ata
Ma ya mi le rara
Isé ku sé kun owo rè
I don't want to see you no more

Well for those who don't understand Yoruba, she was basically talking about a bad friend. How this person who used to be her friend (like a sister) she now started sleeping with her husband, gossiping and carrying rubbish gist. (P.S. classic AF mag, lol). But you get the gist na.

Someone might be reading this post and can relate,well the friend doesn't even have to have slept with your boo, (even your boo get a boo *smiles sheepishly*) probably they did something really bad. It might be hard. Just forgive them. Ask for grace to forgive them. God forgives you. Remember that! I'll leave it at that.

With love, theInspiredCutiee 😘

I am usually all for honesty; I wrote this piece for one the blogs I feature in, but apparently it couldn’t fly because it didn’t centre on an African, (which is good, we got to celebrate Africa). ‘No worries', I said to myself, 'I wrote it, Emma Gonzalez inspires me, so, ama share it here'… While valentine’s festivities for the year was in the air, students of Majory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida were experiencing the most memorable days of their youthful lives; a fellow student of the above named school went on a rage and killed seventeen people. Seventeen lives were lost because one unstable person had his hands on a weapon of destruction. This event is not just a traumatic one for those involved, but more of an uproar; come on, its rational for anyone in this situation to be livid. Having seen clips of the incident, watched the town hall meeting aired by CNN, read tributes, speeches, and the ever trending hashtags #WeCallBS #NotAgain, it’s amazi...

Your Isaac

I always marvel at Abraham's faith. That man went through a lot. I ask myself if I'm capable of enduring one tenth of what he went through.. (Genesis 12 and 22) After waiting for years for a child, God eventually gave him one, and then God said he should sacrifice him.. Every time I read this passage (Genesis 22:2) I take a pause, I'm like 'hollup hollup, whatasay??'. I'm always like God please don't give me such a test oh; because I'll legit fail. 😖 Notice in Gensis 22:1; says 'After all this, God tested Abraham' (The Message). Its clearly says after all what Abraham went through God tested him, test is in past tense; meaning when Abraham was encountering such it wasn't a test for him. We read it now as a test; but for him it was life, real life! Not African Magic or Telemundo.. Lol. What's your Isaac I ask? It doesn't have to be your child.. Lol. It can be your time, your communion with God, or time with other belie...

Star Struck!

Hmmm… My people, na so I see my celebrity crushes… Na so I stand at attention Na so my mouth no gree move Na so I just dey look Chai! My brain no even boot to take picture… Na so I dull! Ha-ha! I wrote this poem on the spur of writing this post. I should actually give you the gist… Scene 1 I needed to use the ATM, so, I decided to go the nearest one around my office, I said to myself ‘this won’t take time, no need to carry phone’, that’s how I left my phone in the office oh. I got to the ATM, there were a couple of people, so I joined the queue, that’s how a black jeep rolled into the parking lot. Enter Nathaniel Bassey… I opened my eyes with surprise, (if you read my posts, you know Nathaniel is BAE!) and began to wonder why no one was screaming and acting all giddy. ‘Is the ATM working’ he asked. ME!!! He spoke to ME!!! I couldn’t even answer I just shook my head because I was too mesmerised. God bless you, I am...
