"DELICIOUS EGUSI" 2




Pleasures can be very expensive but a discerning mind knows how and where to cut his suit according to his affordable and available cloth. A delicious egusi can be "condimented" within and beyond our means: depending on how many of the scarce national cake you have accrued. A mind that knows that real wealth is in your wants not exceeding your means would be wary of condiments that are unreasonable.' 

A meal has a way of deepening our hope: for a vested stomach won't mind the empty pocket but projects its relishing palate to a visualized better morrow and hopeful pocket. Delicious egusi can fester our religiosity because we hope. Therefore we humble ourselves as prototypical Omoluabi the ethical person. Yet we decry our pettiness as against our leaders’ largess.

Haven't you realized? Humility is a religious strong-preach but an economic fall point. Economics as a study starts from obvious scarcity and pretentious values not designed for humbled market. We suffered and we are subjugated to our thinned-out delicious egusi yet we are humble religiously to leaders who loot us economically. Religious measure can hardly salvage an obvious economic knot just as prayer without requisite action can be a waste of breath (deux ex machina is more fictional than real).

We need to redefine ourselves: revamp our values. Government is no one's sweat but the totality of our submitted rights. No geographical space carries a name of a nation or a name of a government: we nomenclate it so. We need to stand tall and stop respecting those who steal public funds.

We need to save the future from further guillotine.

Brentford Beat Blundering Gunner Two Goal To Nil

  The start of EPL came with Arteta still unable to  fumble out of his not-too-convincing career in Arsenal. Brentford came roaring from relegation to beat Arsenal who dream of getting to top four this season. But like their pre-season, a miscarriage of dreams, they fell a goal behind to Brentford through Canos super strike. From that moment forward, Brentford became the Bully, created more chances and Arsenal passed sideways as if the goal post was at the corner flag. Anyways, White white-out on the field, the presence of 50 million bargain wasn't felt. Mari was too casual for a defender. Tierney will soon burn out. Chambers tried his chambers-efforts. Upfront Balogun was starved of direct passes. Pepe will never pepper any defender except when he is in luck. The dude cannot be consistent except he sees a man-manager. Smith is a ball-smith but combined with Xhaka sideways and momentary slip & sleep off, Smith Rowe just rowing to a fruitless breeze. Martinelli needs to man...

Lampard Outclassed the Master: Chelsea dealt Spurs two goals to Nil

Chelsea took the bulling Spurs by the horns: no cautiousness but direct attack. Mourinho was defeated. Chelsea guys didnt come with a respect for the master but they were all brimming to establish dominance which they did. Rudiger was a no-nonsense man, manning the defense. Zouma still un-fooballer-like but always decent.Tomori, your model footballer, tidy through the game. Kovacic was silent but stringing passes. Kante was a beast that made me imagined a combo of him with a De Bruyne in a midfield will be almost unbeatable. While Abraham and Mount were decent, William was the Marshall that Spurs couldnt handle. His every touch weakened the Spurs defense. He got the first goal and converted the other.  The game was all blue and Spurs were all kung-fu fighting. Son got a red card. The goalie a yellow.  Welcome back to Premier League, Mourinho. --toonday  

DECLUTTERING AND DEATH CLEANING:THE LIVING AND THE KINDNESS IN OUR DYING

Living is a quadratic equation with a pre-determined answer (death) yet we keep trying to solve the equation. Year 2017 gave a fair share of answers to many lives. From international, national, to local personalities, lives were lost. To us, at first it appeared a distant reality until someone close to us succumbed to that harsh reality. To the young, it's a distant rumor. To the old, constant topic heavily brooded. If living is an act of dying, how can we then be gracious in dying? I came across this term: death cleaning and alas it's the much needed answer. How we can shroud in our living (dying) the preparatory kindness that can live after us and make neighbors happy?  Every breathing being will one day taste death.  No amount of science, or achievement, or bitterness or super-humanness can change that. If so, won't we live in all preparation for the constant exit? Death cleaning is a Swedish term that describes a conscious and deliberate preparation for death...
