The Godfather Speaks

 There is an approach to life in which I tend to understand the purpose of humanity more objectively. It is more compelling to study creation and ponder its mysteries to uncover the unperceivable order amidst all the randomness and chaos. There is a very profound presence of something greater than we are and yet it is difficult to comprehend that greatness; to make it a reality to behold. We understand, scientifically, that animals are more advanced than plants and man is the most advanced of all the animal species. It’s easy to accept all the facts about his anatomy, physiology, biochemistry and to an extent his psychology. The sociology of man is in a much advanced and organised state than that of other living things. His intellect and his will are way more advanced regardless of how much smaller he is than some of the wildest and largest predators on earth ruled by instincts and stimuli.  As fate would have it, there is a randomness in creation, one that we see in the dis

Let’s assume you are very hungry, the hungriest you’ve ever been, and you walk into Iya Bunmi’s counter and just stand there, you don’t order anything, you’re not carrying a plate, you’re just standing. Please do not be surprised when she sends you away (with a broom, if you were standing too close) with all the Holy Spirit and hunger in you because you’d be blocking other customers from buying what they want.

ANT 1 :   This is the story of two lost souls. One of how they had lived and were lost Boy :        My heart feels cold as frozen ice.   My soul seems to find no peace.   For in the hearts of the ones I have sought for the most,   There did lay my heart’s gravest perils Girl :        Indeed they do feel stolen from me:   My heart, my soul, my body, my all   These have I given and gotten none.   My emptiness has no one sought to fill Boy :        I would give up on love, O yes indeed!

Boy :       How feeble the hear
