D-TRACTS

He left home, racing to the family reunion he had put together with the help of his younger brother who was returning to Nigeria after a long time. The anxiety, anticipation and excitement to finally have a nice time with his extended family was really high. So exhausted was he but the fun ahead kept him alive and strong not withstanding. Meanwhile, some preparations had been made in his home by his dear wife in addition to whatever arrangements was put in place. It was a really large extended family. All sorts of drinks, cakes, chops, fries, etc was the specialty of Vivienne his hardworking wife. Dante,the previous day couldn't resist the temptation of having a taste all the cakes and assorted meat she had prepared. He munched on them despite the warning of his wife to eat with caution. And so here he was trying to beat traffic so as to meet up with the party long awaited. 20 minutes past and the traffic got worse and now he felt a strong urge to pass excreta. D

Have you ever wondered how a Woman in menopause could deliver a set of twins without operation despite the conclusion of scientific DISCOVERY? How can one explain the mystery wrapped around a man who had never walked jump up from his wheel car after that special touch from the balm of Gilead. Amazing is how I describe a business that starts petty and turns out to be a household name/conglomerate. Unbelievable is how the world would describe a person confirmed forever bed ridden receive life and full restoration. Incredible is a miracle that gives that young girl who lost her womb as a result of a series of abortions another chance to have children by mercy and grace. As a young man he chose a part of death when he joined that notorious gang in school that brought about a counter attack on his group which ended up in a brutal fight that got him butchered yet he survived and now knows God. He has become a refuge of safety to those in such situations. That's a great miracle. A

Growth as we know is a function of time and the higher you go the more schooled about life you become. But growth escapes when one declines to follow freely the lessons being taught step by step, a little here a little there, life can be likened to the rainbow that look so admirable but encapsulated and engraved in it is a secret code and interpretation only to the brave and sensitive. Each colour depicts a sign, mystery, lesson and a symbol. Life makes a man metamorphose into an image unimaginable except and except a man carefully crafts a slate which he wants to look into as a guide. Life is not for the unprepared for it sometimes dishes out blows to be returned by the strongest and experienced.  As a man grows older, he discovers new aspects of life which leads to the unveiling of treasures embedded in constant Learning. No wonder a man once said “you stop to learn, you start to die". Learning brings about a specific knowledge profitable to lead and direct the wise a

The fragrance of courtesy and the worth of discipline, respect and culture is gradually losing its savour in the sand of time . The home used to be a cultivation ground for every child who had the opportunity of living with a family. It was culture for a child to respect and honour elders who had gone through the rigorous journey of life. But sadly, respect, honour, discipline and courtesy is gradually going extinct in our modern day life as regard to children upbringing. Most parents no more pay attention   to little, little things which our parents of old paid utmost attention to. Those little things don't matter now. It's so so sad. A flash back to those days when children where taught to stand up for an elder to sit down even though there was an empty sit. It was simply a sign of respect. Those days when children were taught to never look at an elders eyes when talking as it was termed as disrespect. Those days when kneeling or postrating to greet an elder was a sign of

I wish every less privilege parent will just be left with the responsibility of conceiving a child and the sole responsibility of the mother will be to see to it that her child is delivered alive. Afterwards, the duty of the government at any level will be to cater for the child till he/she reaches the tertiary level and from there, is established to use his/her training acquired to sustain and make a living out of life. Oh! If wishes were horses!   I wish every ill-mannered privilege child of the high class will deliberately be allowed to go through hardship. Just to learn the hard lessons life melts on less privileged children. In all, life teaches everyone no matter the background on the long run that the rules of success is no respecter of personality or route. Just be grateful for where you are and maximize the opportunities life dishes.  No one was born with riches but into it so no man should look down on another as a result of heights attained through grace and opportuni

Sometimes, I think of a world without stress, no razzle, no dazzle, and no razzmatazz. Where all is well and life moves on a rapid but peaceful pace. I often think of a world where every man looks out for the interest of his brother, putting aside his. I constantly think of a world where there is little or no fear of the unknown, no fear of harm, oppression, hunger, insecurity. Oh. I think of a world wrapped in undying love for nature, the smell of the fields but no they have burnt raised down and destroyed by fire of inconsideration. The thoughts of separation from the pain that death gives a child, the loss of a dear one, a world where there is no pain or death floods no one deeply, The thought of the flush of evil from the earth and freedom from its ill, an element of a perfect world. Oh the thought of the significance of pleasure in every heart and the true riches embedded in solace for the strength it gives to the weary. My thoughts howeve
