A short poem on the girl child in celebration of the International Day for the Girl Child  The beauty of our race  You are a girl The beauty of our race The hope in our face At your birth many were amazed The eyes that behold you sees beauty The mind that think you think endowment The strength of our race lies in you You are the African Girl child Not for your colour but for your value Not for who birth you But for your purpose on earth Not for your frame but your bold nature Driving away the Lion and Hyenas of our race Your hands are great In them lies amazing ideas, great industries And captains of industries You are a Girl, strong and courageous You are a Girl, the pillar of many generations…  You are, all life needs to be alive So build the, you in you Hold forth your purpose Stand on the heels of greatness Till you reign and trend on and on Poem written by Olabusola Olorunnowo. Thank you for y...

Happy International Day to every girl in the world! “You're a girl! You're strong, you're immaculate, you're smart, and you can do ANYTHING. It's in you!”  ―  Ifeoluwa Egbetade Tim McGraw reflected his love for the success of the girl-child in his song, “My Little Girl.”   A few of the lines in the lyrics are, “Chase your dreams but always know the road that will lead you home again. Go on, take on this world. But to me you know you will always be, my little girl” The girl child in Africa grows up with untapped resources and then she becomes dependent on friends and foes to define her. Many times we also get angry at the African society for how the society attends to the girl-child, but this is not always the case. We need to change the narrative by preparing the mind of the girl-child to embrace the beauty of her personality and the virtue, strength and potentials that comes with her nature. Today, I Olabusola aligns with the United...

😱 oh! Yesterday started quite well then in few minutes my hormones just started malfunctioning. Then all that happened was one terrible feeling: I just felt SAD and down cast for no just reason.Some persons might be able to relate with things mood swing. You just find out, you are sick and tired of so many things and then you are sad for reasons you do not understand. In my case, I suddenly noticed I was really sad. Then I searched through my mind and could not trace the reason for the sad feeling. You will agree with me that there are times somethings that seem to elate you will suddenly not make any sense to you anymore, or they might just seem a bit irritating. Do you know that there is only a thing line between unhappiness and depression. If you dwell much longer in an unhappy state of mind, it wont be long before you sink into depression, except to have a change of mood due to change of environment, conversation, activities and more. Battling depression is no...

BEFORE YOU SAY I DO: CHECK HIS DEBT I am so delighted to upload this post, after some weeks of silence.  Yippee! Olabusola's Review is back... It was a sunny noon and Tracy got a call from Brian her fiance, that he would not be able to give her the money she requested for. Tracy was disturbed about Brian's incessant polite excuses.  She pondered on how many times, she had asked him for money: the first instance was when she requested his financial assistance to go on a trip to the village to see her mum, the second time was when she intentionally requested for his support to change her wardrobe and now she is asking him for his support to change the two back tyres of her car and he declines.  His excuse is that he his servicing some loans. This excuse got Tracy so furious that she sent Brian a nasty message. The incessant complaint of having " a slight debt issue" has often times being her sweetheart's unpleasant excuse for not bei...

HAPPY WORLD POETRY DAY Today March 21st marks the world day for Poetry. It is a day set aside to celebrate creative mind and the spirit of spoken words.  In celebrating World Poetry Day, March 21,  UNESCO  recognizes the unique ability of poetry to capture the creative spirit of the human mind. A  decision to proclaim 21 March as World Poetry Day  was adopted during UNESCO’s 30th session held in Paris in 1999. One of the main objectives of the Day is to support linguistic diversity through poetic expression and to offer endangered languages the opportunity to be heard within their communities. The observance of World Poetry Day is also meant to encourage a return to the oral tradition of poetry recitals, to promote the teaching of poetry, to restore a dialogue between poetry and the other arts such as theatre, dance, music and painting, and to support small publishers and create an attractive image of poetry in the media, so that the art of po...

THE DAY I CHEATED ON MY BELOVED WIFE After a glorious Sunday service and after attending other group meetings, we were both visibly tired. Church service ended before 12 noon, but we got home around 2:30pm. On getting home, both of us wanted to retire to the bedroom and get some rest. It was then I remembered that I announced in church that NO MARRIED WOMAN MUST ENTER THE KITCHEN that afternoon. The first lady of every home, deserves to be pampered and shown tender loving care (TLC). For a Brief moment , I thought within myself...."how on earth did I make that announcement in church today??" (As pastor, its easier to give commands) But the die is already cast, I must fulfill my obligation. (we must obey instructions from the pulpit) I watched my wife enter the bedroom, while I sluggishly made my way to the kitchen. It felt like a very long lonely road. While walking to the kitchen, I knew exactly how she felt every time she had to be in that kitchen alone by hersel...
