This isn't one of my humorous stories or random musings but a write up about the angels God used to make sure I survived 2015, cos the year was hard. This is where I tell my Creator that I'm in awe of His love and blessings. On the first of January 2015, while others were excited about the new year, I was more scared about what direction my life was taking. I can't say all here, in time I'd share but a few know what I'm talking about. There was no mum or siblings to run to if things get crazy. This was just me and I was scared to my bloody intestines.
Family is all I've got. They make me laugh, cry, upset! They laugh at me, make me angry...love me. I've got lovely memories with you which can never be wiped off even in death. Sometimes, I sit alone and laugh at moments we've shared and people wonder if ive gone crazy. Through the hell stress of a day that wind into days, weeks and months, you, my family see me through.
Dr Oghenovo Efekodo (yes you are family), Mum and dad, my younger brother Ovo. could never have passed through 2015 without you all. God couldn't have blessed me more. You are angels.
To My very good friend Dr Ghandi and his beauriful wife and your cute little bundles of joy! Please know that anty loves you with every kiss and smack. Thank you sir for making your home mine and welcoming me when ever the heat at home was unbearable. Thanks for running around in 2015 just to make sure I had my feet back on the ground. God bless you for me.
You, my brother in thy lord and awesomest friend Emeka Ikediashi. we have come a long way haven't we? You're one of a kind. You've been the most reliable. You would heed whenever I call or cry. I do owe alot to you. Ignore me when I act like I don't care. I do care more than you can ever imagine. We laugh at silent jokes, gist silently.... We ve also had our fair share of awkward moments. Your advice, chidding, care, kindness and generousity can never be doubted. Love you to bits!
Who would have thought that last year, a time like this, that I would meet awesome people like you! Jire, you aint forgotten! Sexy! Intelligent! Beautiful! Kind.....ukwu! Sometimes we fight but most times we laugh!
SAU would have been horrible without you! And then peace. Mehn you're the big sister I never had. My soul sisters.
Israel Efosa Harry Ogie, you have a beautiful heart Hun. You know how I feel about you, I guess . But if you don't, here it is! Loving you is easy cos you loved me at my worst. At the beginning of the year when most people judged me, you were among the few that supported me. You told me something I'd never forget. (I know you don't remember) . Jide ka iji! Your path is being moulded! May He show you more love than you ve ever shown me.
Chief! I pray I don't have to do a single week of 2016 without you in it! You are my guardian angel! Don't laugh, darling! If wishes were horses... Thanks for showing me that love could be better. You're patient and kind. I'm here to stay. I hope some day I can write your full name is block letters on my blog. For now we remain discrete *wink*
I love you all awesome family and friends! There's nothing better than finding people who share and understand your madness. I see God in you all and I'm still amazed by His sufficient grace. Eventhough we are all busy with school, work n family, we always make out time to bond. Lets do it again, babies!
You, my readers and followers, are the reason I write. What's the work of a writer without readers. It goes beyond being a good writer. I love you all especially you, Anonymous! Its a new year, lets make evey second count!
