G is for Gift!
Today, I am taking you down memory lane. Once upon a time, in the year 2009, I was sitting on a table in a tailor’s shop prepping for my second paper in English with my friends. That was my second time taking the paper because in my final year in secondary school, I was ill…

The Bigger Person
I am not a petty person, most times I rise above it and let it go. Or maybe, just maybe, I do not have the energy to act and drag out issues. I just want to be done with it and move on to the next thing on my list. So now, let’s talk about…

Self Care
