Sunday was my niece's one year old birthday,which was just convienent cos i was on my last thousand bucks and in my house,you can't run errands without making something of em. So you can be sure i was glad to haul my ass down to my brother's crib in Lagos. The only problem i had was that no matter what you do,you cannot escape those mosquitoes. They seem to be everywhere.Not that am living in a slum,as a matter of fact,the area is respectably upscale,no bush or dump around,which makes me wonder where the mosquitoes reside.
Back to my gist,the party wasn't even supposed to happen;it was meant to be a parlour thing.Trust my sister-in-law to call up her friends,my brother called his AND i called mine.Unfortunately,most of my friend were regrettably out of Lagos,but the least one i expected to be in Lagos was fortunately around and she more than made up for the absence of others(Thanks Kenny for coming)Kenny is my awesome,attractive and caring female friend.
Anyway,the party turned out to be a gathering of old friends and new friends and i had some serious fun:there was enough chops and "Booze",which was essential of course.I of course missed my dear friend "Black Buck" who is fortunately for him and unfortunately for me: out of the country...Will talk more about him sometimes but LANRE in case you read this,i miss you so much..this post is for you cos i want you to know how the party went.There was a whole lot of Man utd n chelsea talk and am sure you would have enjoyed it.
It's been one of those days when you wonder what exactly are you doing? what's your purpose? what does the future hold? Am not trying to be melancholic but my present location affords me ample time and space to ponder on my life. Have some of the steps have taken been the right one? Am i holding on to some things for the right or wrong reason? Do i hide behind religion instead of facing my fears? I must confess it is daunting when i realise i do not have the answers to these QUESTIONS...In all these,i have come to the realization that I am here for a purpose. I may not be the most religious of people,but i have my head screwed on tight. I don't do drugs,am disease free,am not fine neither am I ugly:As a fact am fearfully and wonderfully made.With God by my side and my family ever loving,i know my destiny is bright and the future is awesome. I thank God for the gift of special friends....Holla
