Confessions of a Recovering Serial Sly 🌚
If you ask my friends, I am not the kind of friend you invite out. Do not get me wrong, when I am out, I am usually the life of the party. I crack jokes, start conversations and make sure everyone is having a good time. The issue is getting me there in the first place. Unless it is a birthday, a major occasion, or I have reached the point where I genuinely miss hanging out with my friends, you will rarely catch me at a groove. Some people suffer from FOMO. I suffer from ROMO

Penguins of Madagascar 👩🏻🤝👩🏾
I was randomly thinking about this article in February. I hadn’t started writing it, but I knew the direction I wanted to take, and this title came to me. One thing I’ll never not be is fascinated by my mind because my blogpost titles explain the topic of the day in such a perfectly veiled manner.

Fill In The Blank 🧑🏾🏫
The idea for this blog post struck me on January 30th while conversing with a Yoruba man. Initially, I had a different approach, focusing on what love meant to me and asking you to share your thoughts as well. However, after a slightly difficult conversation with the same man almost two months later, my perspective shifted. In recent times, love has begun to mean clarity to me.

For The Lover That I Lost 💔
I started writing this article last February, and with the emotional turmoil I was in then, I got overwhelmed and closed the draft after two paragraphs. A little over a week ago, I remembered my promise to be a monthly contributor on this website, so I randomly started scrolling through my drafts looking for inspiration. It led me here. If I were to pick one word to characterise my love life up until this moment, I would call it tumultuous. It is one big pot of pepper soup w
