Alter-right

Who reads the manual! She said.

It’s been a while now that I join the shuttle bus.

I rather prefer to “park well” at a trek able distance.

Aha! That’s why you failed your jamb, you did not read the instructions well, she was annoyed.

The truth is bitter, sure I support the mother.

You can’t learn what you feel you already know.

No one knows the heart of the manufacturer well as the manual.

We are at the age where by a 2 year old boy calls a year old plus a baby.

Oya! Who is a baby, sure the two.

Anytime my Jewel finish dressing up and she comes to use me as a mirror and I say’s it’s alright, she knows there is a problem, she wants to hear more either critics or applaud.

The world Alter-right now means alright, what was not acceptable then now seems alright.

The word alright now comes to place in almost every phase of our live, family, fashion, Education, Religion, Politics name it.

REAL-FACE

It’s been a while here…

Knock, knock…. It’s so good to be back after a very long vacation*winks.

So we had to clean all the harmattan dust in-house, mop, let fresh air-in.

Put all stationery flinging around in place, picked my pen to write in “spectacles”

Luckily I came across a post that quite depict what’s on my mind right on Facebook, and here it goes…

“If you left the church to get away from HYPOCRITICAL people, you should also quit your job, drop out of school, disconnect yourself from all of your friends and family, lock yourself in your room while you’re at it.

There will be flaws wherever there are humans.

We need to start seeing the church for what it is:

It is a hospital with wounded and hurt people, you’ll find messed up, conniving, calculating, imperfect individuals, including yourself.

As much as you want to deny it, we all go for healing. So if you felt betrayed by a fellow church member, put your nursing cap on and think of them as your patients. Treat them with care, love and kindness despite their rudeness.

Welcome to Lagos...

Anger is temporary madness, doesn't solve anything, builds nothing, but it can destroy everything.
Wikipedia says Anger is an emotional response related to one's psychosociological interpretation of having been threatened.
Anger as temporary madness has levels, therefore I suppose a more mad person should be refer to as more mad/madder, most mad/maddest.
Yea, how else will you know you are in Lagos if not for the traffic palava.
Most time you won't see what's the cause of the hold up, go slow. It's mainly artificial, Buses stop indiscriminately,  accident as a result of impatient,  before you say jack! The traffic has build up.
Note, you've got to buy more time especially if you want to arrive in good time. 
To make my journey swift and a bit stressless I decided to take a cab, chai... I was crazily billed like "kilode" I no be JJC. So I put on my humbility jacket (yea humility), abeg where is the next moving bus.
Close to my final destination, scenerio played between the bus driver and a car, I tell you that scene was crazy. Police men came, accidental fire discharge, spectators...
Anger was the cause of it all, heart and act of impatient. 

Monkeys

Most time we need think twice before following the band wagon/taking some decisions.
Here is a report based on an actual experiment conducted in the United Kingdom.

Eight monkeys were put in a room. In the middle of the room is a ladder, leading to a bunch of bananas hanging from a hook on the ceiling.

Each time a monkey tries to climb the ladder, all the monkeys are sprayed with ice water, which makes them miserable.
Soon enough, whenever a monkey attempts to climb the ladder, all of the other monkeys, not wanting to be sprayed, set upon him and beat him up. Soon, none of the eight monkeys ever attempts to climb the ladder.

One of the original monkeys is then removed,  and a new monkey is put in the room. Seeing the bananas and the ladder, he wonders why none of the other monkeys are doing the obvious. But undaunted, he immediately begins to climb the ladder.

All the other monkeys fall upon him and beat him silly. He has no idea why.

However, he no longer attempts to climb the ladder.

A second original monkey is removed and replaced. The newcomer again attempts to climb the ladder, but all the other monkeys hammer the chap out of him.

This includes the previous new monkey, who, grateful that he's not on the receiving end this time, participates in the beating because all the other monkeys are doing it. However, ha has no idea why he's attacking the new monkey.

One by one, all the original monkeys are replaced. Eight new monkeys are now in the room. None of them have ever been sprayed by ice water. None of them attempt to climb the ladder. All of them will enthusiastically Beag up any new monkey who tries,  without having any idea why.
And that is how traditions, religions and systems get established and followed.

It would make more sense if you get your own understanding  rather than blindly following a tradition, religion or system.
