A first class seat into my head, life experiences and opinions
One recurring conversation I keep finding myself in at work and in my social circles is of people complaining about their paternal relatives. It’s either an entitled uncle or an aunt who’s hard to get along with. Or paternal relatives who have been visibly absent all through your life suddenly…
At some point in the past few weeks, it felt like I was in a season of grief. First, I lost two friends in the space of a week and in a funny twist of events buried them days apart. Then I lost someone who was almost like a baby…
