Unpoured

A heart beat between 1-2seconds, Two heart beats between 1-2seconds, Three heart beats, rushing in with a gasps, between 1-2seconds. Yes, like 3 heart beats and gasps, fear is! Then the eyes starts getting brighter, as though it were opening for the first time, Moving from blur to clear, like a zoom minus to zoom plus, back to zoom minus until it stabilises to zoom plus. Yes, like ZOOM, fear is! And then they come fluttering like random pictures in the cloud, You begin to see Power Puff Girls and Mojojo having a cup of tea laughing.. The Joker sends Batman a birthday gift with a card saying their kids would prolly have a play date next week. Then Superman tells the whole world he's Clark Kent. Yes, like movies, fear is! It's all up there.. in the MIND! Fluttering and keeping us in suspense with our hearts racing. Don't let your mind be your limitation - remove fear!!! For our father hath not given us the spirit of fear!! 2 Tim 1...

(Contd..) So, I'm here. I've got skills to be an entrepreneur. I've also got skills to be employed. But first off, I'm starting off my first week of joining the labour market as a Beauty and Skin Care Consultant - where I get to sell beauty and skin care products to everyone (because I know we all like to look good and our body speaks and introduces us wherever we show up). Then there's always Plan B and C and D and E until plan Z. There should be no staying down when we fall. We must strive to see which option works best. One can work. Two can. Five can. It won't hurt if we have 26 options working for us. Who knows, I would land a great paying job. I would be my own boss. But for now, I am a Beauty and Skin Care Consultant.

On the 12th day of April 2018, the 2017 NYSC Batch A, Stream 1 Corpers were ceremonially celebrated during their P.O.P in various states. I was amongst them. Yes, I've served and I've dusted off those jungle boots (even though I never wore mine as it was oversized). Though I'm suppose to forget my P.P.A but I won't because I met some fellas that are great and who made my year 'laughable'. No matter how a thing or situation feels unnecessary to have or explore, you'd end up learning one or two things. Now what's next after service life? How much have we learnt during the service year? Were the relationships we built worthwhile? Are we expected to start a job or to be our own bosses? How long will it take to get employed? How long will it take to start and grow a business? So many lines to fall into place. So many expectations that looks like a bed of roses. REALITY: Life can be a bed of roses. Life can be a bed of thorns. Life can be 'all that gl...

My heart aches, it's disturbing My mind is clouded, it's disturbing My hands are numb, it's disturbing My breathe is asthmatic, it's disturbing. It's as though I'm no human.. It's as though I'm in my own world. It's as though I don't mix.. It's as though I'm in my own world. I know not what I feel I'm doing wrong I know not what I feel  I'm missing I know not what I feel I've misplaced I know not what I feel is wrong with me. IT TRUELY IS DISTURBING.. I ache!

Everything about life is based on making choices. Choices that are good or bad, right or wrong, nice or wicked, with humility or pride, early or late, this or that. They are all what makes life the way it is - how boring or how fun life is, how hectic or how easy life is, how smiley or how teary life is. Why can't we make positive choices all our lives? Can we all live our lives making the right and un-painful choices? I think we do but at that split minute of unwatched words or reaction, they change and become negative. How, you may ask? As a teacher of the English Language in a rural secondary school with unaccomodating students, you try your best to be nice in order to get them to open up towards you and learn. That moment you enter your English Class, all ready to start teaching and you ask "How many of you have the notes for today's class?", to get an answer of 3 hands raised out of 9 students + 3 already absent. Then the decision to take all their n...

Unpoured.. Empty here it seems, But full still within. Unpoured.. Empty here it seems; Relief of the mind I think, Ease, exhale, no thoughts. So I pour to empty all here it seems. Unpoured.. But full still within; Never can it be erased, Because my heart got it all. So still full within my heart.

Hi. Welcome to my Blog!! So, I've been asked to have a blog because "they say, I write well". I dunno but you be the judge. Though i have another blog, but it's not personal. It's called Audraey's and it's all about Arts. Now this is going to be more personal and i would explain in my next post where i'd tell you why I chose the name "Unpoured" for my blog name. Thank you and have a great Sunday!!!
