The C-word

Lately  my blog views have increased, hundreds actually. Pretty good right, you would think I wouldn't ghost for 3 months but I'm nothing if not surprising πŸ™‚.

Any way so as much as I have been off and a lot of you might not know that Bts I've been learning and growing. I had blocks this summer like the whole summer, I got so busy I didn't have the strength to think anymore every thing was on remote control. Click right, left and all. And I started talking a ton of writers, bloggers, musicians, teens. You know getting the scope on all ends.

We find it really hard to be creative because creativity is uncomfortable for some people.
Creativity has been called inappropriate, wrong,  different, weird. When all in all its just you being you, that's what it's about.

For a few years, there was a box I was in, I had a list of things I couldn't write about or be creative about, things that might cause controversies, make people uncomfortable. JK Rowling, the Bronte sisters, Louisa May Alcott, Mary Ann Evans amongst other women couldn't write with their real names cause it made people uncomfortable, made them ask, why are women so educated that they can write. It might make some people uncomfortable but If ou feel the need to write something or draw something or paint something, if you feel it in your heart you should do it.

I'm not the same way I write, writing has always been an escape, I don't even look like I know as much as I do. I'm always laughing, smiling a giant ball of energy and sunshine but I've always written even when I wasn't writing I was always creating.

From what I've seen and observed everyone has their own boxes built around them so sometimes they try to build it around another person and make them doubt themselves.

Art is the most off the charts way of self expression, but it's always always the most true.

Before I end I just remembered that
Sylvia Plath wrote
"The worst enemy of creativity is self-doubt".

So be yourself and express yourself.

PS I'm sorry I've been off but I will try to be on now. I have a lot of things to share.

I used to be ashamed of being who I want to be You think because I’m a woman then I really can’t be me  You think cause I’m black then I really can’t be free  Well screw all your stereotypes cause God loves all equally I wanna be the president I really want to rule  Not cause I think I’m better cause I know what I can do  Cause every life we lose it makes me feel so confused Like is this really what my country has amounted to This isn’t just a poem  It’s a clear out declaration  I am Nigerian it’s my home and it’s my nation  I’m tired of killings and I’m tired of the pain  I’m 18 and I’m scared will I see the next day  Will I see my matriculation, my certification or convocation, or will I make it to my next birthday This is a call to everyone who thinks that they can do better  Everyone who knows now won’t be forever  When you leave your country you open doors up There’s evil there’...
Hey guysssss Its me again😌😌😌 Well I'm guessing you knew that since you are on my blog and whatnot soπŸ˜‚ Okay so I wanted to do this as a middle of the year post since at my church we are going to have a massive Sunday on the 25th just praising God and going all out for keeping us till the middle of yet another year. Uhm, so I will be going to the university soon, and honestly, I haven't gotten admission yet, cause the lists aren't out for my school and all, but people always question my choice, like "Obehi why that school?" "Do you know how hard it is to get it" "The partiality is too much etc. Well they're all right and I get it, I do appreciate the concern but everything is human worry, and human mentality, what we see as a mountain from down here, God sees it as a little rock. And I just wanted to do this today since I had this surge of energy and encouragement to write. This year, it seemed to me like the devil was purposely...

BOOK REVIWS

HI HI HI HI HI☺☺☺☺☺☺ I am back from the land of bloggers block and I’m here to do book reviews, think of it as a valentines treat. For those who are like me and aren’t planning on turning up tomorrow, or doing anything social except social networking, and of course socializing with family…(UGH!) curling up with a good book is always a valentineπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’“πŸ’“πŸ’“πŸ’πŸ’πŸ’πŸ’žπŸ’žπŸ’žπŸ’ŸπŸ’ŸπŸ’ŸπŸ’‹πŸ’‹ treat. I am obsessed with books that actually have their own movies which is why we see MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA This book is fantastic, I read it and I kept on reading it, the writer Arthur Golden is really golden. The Asian culture has always been beautiful to me so seeing it here has been a lovely literary experience, a core favorite of mine is how he shows the utmost transition from a poor girl in a fishing village to one of the best geisha in all of Japan, though she is drenched is modesty and she gives a classic line that I do take as a personal phras...
