...And She Had To Die

This is really sad and it’s not just sad because someone decided to take her own life, what makes it sad is the reason behind it. There’s no justification for taking your own life, I wrote about this extensively in an article titled suicide a while back but I’d write some more here, people commit suicide for a lot of reasons ranging from debt to depression and a million other reasons that make people almost pity them and understand why they did it. You’re still going to die anyway so why die now? I mean, even if you want to die now, must you do it yourself? Life is not a bed of roses, we all know that but the challenges we face in life should motivate us to work hard towards achieving the kind of life we desire. That’s for those who feel like ending their lives out of frustration from too many things going wrong in their live unlike the person who inspired this write up. I could say rest in peace but that’s up to God to make that happen. The lady (less than 23 years old) who inspired this post committed suicide because her favorite actor died in a series that she has been a huge fan of. So what? Someone hanged himself in a movie and he’s your favorite actor, that’s why you will commit suicide in real life, just because you can’t bear to watch the series without him. Why not drop the series and get another one to get addicted to, must you watch that particular one? That’s how a young life has been cut short, for a reason I dare to consider very stupid. It’s so annoying right now, I don’t know if anyone else feels this way about this but haba!


Stay alive by all means. Live life, make impacts, make money, have fun, eat good, serve God, fall in love, travel, build relationships, I mean? Whatever works, as long as it’s positive, just stay alive. Nobody is worth dying for, no movie, no music, no challenge is worth it, as far as I’m concerned. The actor she died for is somewhere chilling and pursuing his career, making his dreams come true, making money, making love, whatever works for him while she’s nothing but DEAD. If she didn’t leave a suicide note, I’m quite certain that no one would have guessed the reason behind her death. When they said, find what you love and let it kill you, this wasn’t the message it was trying to disseminate. It didn’t even mean actual death, it just meant you should follow it to the latter. If watching series is what you love doing, please, please and please, don’t let it kill you. Don’t die while you’re at it. I love you and I need you alive, somebody needs you, you were created for a purpose, a unique purpose and you don’t want to die without fulfilling that purpose. Even if you’ll fulfilled that purpose, you still don’t want to die, you want to live happily knowing that you’ve achieved your purpose for living, you’re living the dream. Stay alive, only the tough gets going when the going gets tough.


Live, Love, Laugh!

Who Says There Are No Pervs In Church?

Dear OTTH readers, how are we? I spent my weekend resting and going through dorisaniunoh.blogspot.com, you know as a writer, one shouldn't depend on themselves, so every now and then, I go through other blogs because not only do I learn a lot from them, they also inspire me to write something. I love reading from Doris' blog because like me, she writes real life stuff, something I could actually relate to not how Davido got robbed and the likes. I've been meaning to write about this in a while but procrastination won't let me but today I have bound the spirit hence here it is. I'm certain we all know who a perv is but just incase we don't, perv is the shortform for the word "pervert" and it refers to someone who's sexually obsessed according to Google and that's about what it means so I guess we all get the picture and we'd understand better as we proceed. I've always thought pastors would at least act like pastors no matter the tempt...

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 t...

Mirabel's Dairy

My name is Mirabel Blakewood, I'm 20 years old. My parents died when I was 6 in a car accident on the 25th of July, 2001 and I've been living with Maternal Grandmother until she also passed away when I was 15. I still stay at my Grandmother's till date. I'm quite tall, I have brown eyes just like my Dad's. I remember it when he used to read me bedtime stories, I would stare deep into his eyes till I fell asleep. I keep a small circle of friends - Jeff, Sarah, Lionel and Amy. We've been friends since we were kids. They've been my family too. My Grandmother was a very quiet woman, she was a woman of noble mien. She had no friends and she barely spoke to anyone. She would say hello to few people after the service on Sunday then be back to her normal withdrawn self. There was something my Grandma passed on to me, it's called the Peth spirit. It was passed on to her by her mother when she was dying but my Mum didn't live long enough for it to b...
