Exciting Adventures of Chikamso

''To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do us part. And the Lord in his goodness strengthened our vow and filled us with his blessings and what he has joined, stands undivided''.   Still so fresh like the early morning dew, we were both standing facing the alter on that magical and beautiful bright Saturday morning of Feb 11th, while family and friends from every walks of life gathered in excitement to witness and to celebrate a union of friendship. Time surely do have wings, but how she flies by so quickly, is still a puzzle... Today will forever be remembered for a very special reason- the day God took time to ordain a beautiful union between an Angel and I, forever. Every day reminds me of God’s love, but days like today reminds me of how lucky I am. Despite my many inadequacies, God gave me the most wonderful person in the whole world- I...

It was a long weekend for some Florida residents especially those closer to the eye of the storm, to some this might be a once in a life time adventure getting to experience what a category 4/5 hurricane feels like, but to some it is not something they would want to ever experience. For others, it was anxiety driven but for us, it was mixed, regardless we had a chunk of fun, stayed at home all day for updates, off school, off work and enjoyed the curfew; restriction of movements while it all lasted.  Apparently, it was an opportunity for us to catch up with all the house chores we neglected but still we got to relax. We were hopeful while the short storm raged, we hoped for the best because we prepared for the worst, but it never came, and changed course that spared us all. Then o ur hope for the best paid off in the end. Sibling and a Playmate for life   Then excitingly, after all the fun and mixed feelings, there comes a resounding moment of a greater joy just a day ...

For some reason I woke up yesterday feeling so powerful. I couldn't understand the feeling until I realized it was actually my birthday! whatever that means. Yay! it was my second birthday! I felt so powerful perhaps because of the surprising early morning 'happy birthday' song by Nonyelum's choir group led by my adorable mom with my daddy and great grandma as members. Maybe because it was my day, maybe not, maybe because of milestones I accomplished. Maybe not. Regardless of the reason behind the feeling, I am sure I exceeded all my milestones and that alone could not have been more fun without growing older by a way of adding another year! Yes! a day to celebrate just me, I guess that's what birthday means. Sometimes it seems like a trap growing old, but actually its not as am beginning to take control of different habits like communicating, expressing myself, being in charge picking up nature's call. Maybe that was the actual reason I felt so powerful. Most...

Life is such an interesting phenomenon that most often never seems to firmly fit into any given square but keeps evolving. Few years ago, a maiden was said to be the most sought after by suitor in a small town called Nawgu as this maid fondly claims. Although, eventually married her first love and lived with him through all his struggles and adventures, until his sudden demise after over three decades of being together. Growing up, I recalled how the maiden from Nawgu will proudly tell her kids stories, of which coincidentally I am one them, but most often, she tells it to her daughters how elegant she was as a teenager and how her would be husband wrestled to win her heart and hand into marriage. They were all proud of her. There was no doubt about her inner and outer beauty, however her stories sank and lingered with a fiction of mental images of it all; Egoyibo as the most adorable maiden in that small town then, which was actually arguable or  perhaps with some bit of skeptic...

So many has happened within a very short period. I couldn't believe how fast I have accumulated many biological mileage. I have grown many teeth, walk, run, enrolled in preschool and now learning to speak and do some sign languages. Aside personal developments, I have had my first international flight experience to my motherland earlier this year at mere 7months to attend my grand dad's funeral. Although, that wasn't how I imagined my first visit to motherland, but fate made it so. The planning process involves a lot, like completing my immunization, having my international passport, and other paper and health work. Although, the travel itself was short, but the experience is amazingly remarkable.

Despite being a mere recreational shepherd, he became the greatest warrior of all time from his first battle! Despite being the least in his family, he was appointed and exalted above others by the Almighty God he serves! Despite the existence of a crowned king, he was anointed and crowned a King in the presence of another living King! Despite his iniquities, the holy scripture referred to him as "the Man after God's heart"! Despite his shortcomings, his offspring became the wealthiest man; mentally and materially that has ever lived! Despite all, Christ the Savior, the indomitable Champion! The Star of all ages! The life game changer! The unarmed Commander-in-chief that never lost a battle, The Prince of Favor! The perfect Judge! came from his root. Although, he wasn't perfect, but two things made him exceptional; obedience and purity of heart. Nothing he did was for show, but for pure purpose based on conscience and need. The Message: Simply be...
