Well, this article is not about Nike 🙂 … it’s more like a personal challenge to me as an individual. I am in a transition space and valley of decision which will require quite a Continue reading
Fear…it’s something we can all relate with in different areas of our lives at different moments and in different circumstances.
Some know how to deal with it, circumventing it, and forging ahead…others may refuse to confront it…and others would use it either to their negative Continue reading

Have you ever sat…and looked across the room in search of a familiar face but there is none?
Have you ever walked round the compound… recalling conversations that can’t be had again?
Have you ever walked down the passageway…and wondering why is the silence is so loud?
Have you ever tried to hold a conversation with someone…and realise the person…is not there but there?
Have you ever sat down and asked yourself…where is everybody? 
Have you ever paused to think and answer, where am I and where is the way?
Have you…?

Where should I start my appreciation? Really I don’t know where. But what I know is, I have been overwhelmed with love and warmth since Saturday as I marked my 40th. Family, friends, colleagues, well-wishers… you are all simply amazing.
Even though I would have loved to have a get together with friends … I must not fail to commend, celebrate and appreciate my wife for the beautiful cake and the party mood she put the whole house too. I celebrate you, love you and treasure you greatly. This journey won’t have been possible without you. And to Adeoluwa and Oluwatamilore… you made the day bam in your own unique children ways.

The hallway echoes with footsteps…The rooms pregnant with dark silence, the chairs looking gloomy…a shadow of useful past.
One after another, the chatter fades away, the smiles wither and the warmth turns to cold, the boisterousness gives way to hollowness and despair.
A cherished history, the bonding memories are remembered in bitterness and anger…and the wind blows listlessly…willing for days gone by.
A hunger for fulfillment…a stirring for purpose give winds to the sails…and they sail off 
into the sunset seeking for glory and never to look back.
