Love With Blood?

Dear OTTH readers, I hope we're good because I'm very fine. You know me and the things that bother me, lol. The other day, I was discussing with Anuli (CEO, Iluna photography)  about how I think it's abnormal to have sexual relations with any member of ones family and she made a point by saying that it's a norm in some places #onemansmeat...you know the drill but that it doesn't make it right.
I understand that people crush on their cousins and all and I also understand that my culture might be a taboo someplace else but haba! Why would you have sexual relations with your family member? I used to think it was always sexual abuse when things like that happen but I've found out that people actually do it with pride and talk about it without shame. I remember someone telling me how he makes out with his cousin and he loves her so much and I'm like gfhdsshgk?

Over the years, I've heard and I still hear of different cases of incest and it was beginning to sound cliché until one day earlier in the year I decided to surf the internet regarding cases of incest and I saw something that shocked me, a father and his son being together sexually!. I know about homosexuality and all which exists in countries where it's not even legalised including our very own Nigeria but being gay with your son? That's just the height of 'yucky' for me.
The one that made me finally decide to write this was the story I read about a Kenyan who sleeps with her father. According to her, she was the one who actually approached her father and that's how they started and her mum doesn't know about it. So the man sleeps with his daughter and wife. Funniest part is that his daughter prefers him to her boyfriend sexually. Yes, she was very specific, nothing to be ashamed of and they've been at it for four years so it's no bigdeal right?

Endtime, Endtime, Endtime is usually what backs up these kind of issues yea? I know crazy stuff happen when the end is near but this is just out of my imagination or is it that we're also awed at certain happenings but we have no explanation to them so we just use the endtime as an excuse because it's easier that way than analyzing the whole issue. These are just my opinions though and I'm open to other opinions so do not hesitate to share your opinion on this, do you think it's normal to engage in sexual relations with family members or do you agree with me that the family should be excluded when it comes to sexual relations?

No it's very abnormal to engage in anything sexual with relations. Even homosexuality is wrong, some people will say it's not a big deal and its still love and after all God is love. I was wondering about that until I stumbled on this bible passage and it just blew me away. It was like God cleared my doubt lol "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. (‭2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬ NIV)
So it's all wrong. Be it sexual relations with blood or with same sex

There is nothing about it that can be considered even slightly normal. The END IS NEAR!
I understand the case of people who were never aware that the person was their relation and then stopped everything on realising but when you engage in sexual relations with your family member knowing fully well that the person is your family member, what do we call that?

My Marriage Story...So Far

I get to be asked about how marriage has been a lot by some of my unmarried friends. I’ve not even been married for long enough to be qualified to answer that question. From my little experience, marriage, like any other phase in life isn’t all smooth. It has its ups and downs. There’s an extra respect you get as soon as you get married. I get to be called MA a lot by people who wouldn’t ordinarily call me that and I’m wondering why. I guess it’s just the way the society has made it. Oh and I lost some friends as soon as I got the MRS title. Some people don’t care about how serious your relationship is, they’d still be on your ‘case’ but as soon as you say “I do”, they’d forget you like you never existed. This was good and bad for me because I considered some to be great friends but then, I guess I was wrong. Then there’s the pressure to get pregnant, I got lucky to get pregnant earlier than I thought though I wasn’t even ready. But before my body began announcing it, I still...

Life after Death...real or not?

Life after death....hmmmm      I know we've all heard or read stories about people who lived after they died.      I'm not talking about reincarnation this time, I'm talking about people who were confirmed dead but were still recognised elsewhere alive, hale and hearty.      Okay, there was this lady who resided close to my house diagnosed with tuberculosis or something related because she was drying up real bad, might have been Hiv too (just saying), she usually patronised my shop where soft drinks and snacks were sold. She usually bought only pepsi or 7up, as the spirit led her I guess.      I was very young then and observant too as always so one day she came as usual, bought 7up and left. Not long after she left, I heard that she had died the previous day.      I wondered how someone could be dead and still buy her usual the next day, I thought it was a strange thing so I never told anyone.   ...

My End Of The Year Note

Dear OTTH Readers, how are we? I'm very fine and I can smell 2016 already afterall it's just some hours from now so I guess I'd just use this medium to say merry Christmas in arrears and happy new year in advance. I hope we all "shouted out" to our uncles and aunties, class teachers, lol, don't mind me. I'm sure we remember those Christmas funfairs where kids shout out to their loved ones where some even cry while talking, it's very hilarious watching them. Okay, now to the reason we're here. This year wasn't so bad for me though it didn't start so well but I have a lot to be thankful for and I'm going to share them with you. Let's start with the negatives so the story can have a good ending. For about half of the year, I was jobless which means I was frustrated, broke, you know the drill. Recently too, I lost my school's Vice Chancellor, Mrs. Esther Tchokatcheu who played a very important role in the process of my being a gr...
