How Time Flies
Destiny Joseph

How Time Flies

It all started when our life's clock ticked four (4), How our paths crossed even before we knew the word, "tour. " I couldn't help but capture those bitter-sweet memories in puzzles and pieces, One, of how our feet joyfully navigated streets we'd never known. Now I can testify of the sacred song, "amazing grace" –we got "Lost and Found." How time truly flies! The marketplace where mother sold was our pitch and playground, Indeed, our home away from our differing backgrounds. We often ...

African Rivers and Lakes

Today, marks the fifth, 5th day of our adventure and tour around the African continent in a bid to explore eye-catching sights and mind blowing endowment in nature.

Day 3: African Deserts & Dunes

Africa is one continent blessed with diverse vegetation, climate and people. Talking about deserts in Africa the names that come to mind are the Sahara desert, kalahari desert, Namib desert, Libyan desert and a plethora of others. As it stands, the Sahara desert is the hotest. As a bonafide Nigerian, we search to see if our country was blessed with deserts and dunes and found none, except for one, the Yusufari Desert. The Yusufari Desert is believed to be an extension of the Sahara desert ...

Day 2: Kurra Waterfalls

There's just a particular reason, Plateau State is called the Home of peace and Tourism. We have an ambience so welcoming and comely. The Kurra falls in Plateau state is one of the iconic sights on the state and is situated in a region of wonderful landscape nearly 77 kilometers southeast of Jos. This iconic sight came about because of the exercises of tin mining in the territory. This resulted from the activities of tin mining in the area.

How you know the spelling of the word "Consistency" but never tasted of the sour fruit and stress it brings to our patience. 31 days of #Nirclefeeds transformed my concept of writing. It transcends reward and emphasized passion and commitment. I've failed to keep up with writing on my blog, - theinspiredpoet. Com.

Day 30: Reflections

Another year is coming to an end and another opens up. A proverb about work and making known your strides struck my mind amidst my short reflections today. Hear it: "Imọtọ ki tọfa ñw gunu owñu d’ọla ñw ñe ña." TRANSLATION: "Any child who shoots a vulture with an arrow merely exposes himself to public ridicule because it is not an edible bird." It is used to tell a child not to be too heard in public. A futile activity undertaken in public always attracts public opprobriu...

Day 28: African Heritage

"The Giant of Africa" as some fondly calls is a name sewn to the fabric every Nigerian wears about his/her country - Nigeria. What I love is how we dare to dominate scences, we shine better once outside the country than within it. We favorable weather for agricultural purposes, especially Plateau State and some states in the middle belt. What's more captivating is that we have experienced devastating natural disasters as some countries do. It's something rarely common or seen in the country. ...

As a young man in Nigeria, my day starts during the early hours of the day.

The African Christmas praise night was amazing. Last year, precisely, December 20th we had a carol and it focused on praising God for the gift of his dear son which we were about to celebrate on December 25th.

To wrap the event up, traditional dishes were served and nothing beats the abacha made by the Igbo community. On...
