Why Someone Cannot Just Declare

Friday a public holiday too? One day is not enough to think and pray for Naija. We need more time!!!!

But sincerely speaking, DNW wonders what we are really celebrating? Hmmmm Yet will DNW praise you O Lord cos it could be worse.

Happy Birthday Naija!

If Anybody Knows Anybody Who Knows...

Anybody who knows the Governors of Ekiti, Ondo or Edo State?????? Yes oh, please I am picking these states because DNW is involved. Yes I am involved. To go to my hometown I have to traverse areas that are part of these states. SO please, DNW is wondering if you have connections like that PLEASE tell them we NEED directional signs on the expressways and roads that go through these states. Not everyone is a commercial driver. Some of us need help navigating these routes. Big bright, neon lit directional signs to assure us we are on the right track would be a huge blessing!!!!!

DNW wonders, but for God, my MGM and I would have ended up in Benin last night....We thought we were headed for Ore from Akure. We had no business being in Ohuluku!!!!!!!

How On Earth Aunty Yinka can be gone??????

I tell you, this woman was the essence of LIFE itself to me. No matter how ill I was feeling when I went down to our Medical, she would manage to make me smile. She knew all my children's names. She knew more about me than I knew about her. She was so bubbly. So alive. Anytime the elevator stopped on the 5th floor and she saw me through the opened lift doors, she would always blow me kisses accompanied by a wide smile! So how could this epitome of love and care be dead? Just like that!

I blogged once about Death being a white horse that comes to take one into eternity....I heard my pastor saying it.....I love my pastor but I really don't care for these white horses right now! White horse, you bring my uncle back! Yes, bring my auntie yinka back here right this minute!!!

Yes, am throwing an adult tantrum. Its all good, God, sees my heart. He understands me and my juvenile ways.......ahhhhhhhhhhhh life is a thread. one snip and its gone.......DNW wonders why, yet after witnessing all of these deaths, we still are playing around with our eternal salvation. Who knows, it might be me tomorrow......Yes, God forbid, but really who knows.......

How Much Of Life Is Pure Natural Evil......

And how much of it is jazzed evil? I try not to blame everything that happens on the 'household wickedness'of the village people or attribute them to the remotely controlled devices of the evil people who are out to get me, kill me, steal my joy, harm my children, jazz my husband, vanish my money, extinguish my joy and on, and on it goes......but i really cant help it. Lol!

Seriously though DNW wonders if sometimes we refuse to look within to the cause of the stuff that happens to us. The bible does say as a man sows so shall he reap. I guess we dont admit that we have sown something.

.....as I heard said once, the enemy you might be praying to die die die, might just be you, yourself! So a little self exam will do us now harm once in a while.

If There Is Anything More Wonderful Than.......

the unconditional love of one's child.....?

OK, I am sure there are a few things but for DNW today, this is as good as it gets.

I don't have to wonder about it, I just love it...hearing my children tell me they love me.....awwww bliss. perfect bliss. Thank you Jesus!

Why The Simple Things In Life Are So Hard to Do?

You know, like smiling warmly to the lady that walks into the elevator
or
drinking 8 glasses of water
or
saying thank you to the cleaning lady or the mail boy
or
saying I am sorry when you are
or
letting go of past wrongs

and on and on it goes.....just wondering. dont have a clue as to the answer.

If I just start buying size 14 clothes......

I could possibly convince myself that I have lost weight cos then my clothes will not feel so tight. Lol! I think this is a quick fix it for now....yes, DNW believes this makes sense!

If the pain will ever go away

My mom. My pastor. My uncle. 3 deaths that have hit me hard. real hard.
Will the pain ever go away? Will the tears ever completely dry up? I know they will.
Once just thinking of her reduced me to tears. Once, just hearing one of the praise and worship songs he taught us, reduced me tears. Yes once. So I guess same thing will happen with this one. But for now, just thinking of my uncle. reduces me to tears. I guess, soon I will be saying 'once' for him too. And like the other two, I will be able to smile at the memories of them. Of how they touched me. Of how they made me who I am today, Once......
