APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY FLOWERS


Hey Reader,

Josh here with a splash of April wisdom! 😎💦

You've probably heard the phrase "April Showers Bring May Flowers" many times, but stick with me—it's not just about rain and roses across our beautiful continent!

Picture this: While some are literally dancing in the rain (or dashing between raindrops with questionable umbrella skills), others are sipping on this as the perfect metaphor for life's rollercoaster! Either way, we're all in this adventure together! From north to south—we've become seasonal transition EXPERTS! 🏆 We've seen enough cycles to know that those challenging moments? They're just setting the stage for the GOOD STUFF!

When heavy rains come, we shelter together, knowing they will nourish our crops and replenish our water sources. This wisdom extends beyond weather patterns into all aspects of life.

Think about it:

  • That city project that's making everyone grumpy now? Future awesome hangout spot! ✨
  • The community programs we're pouring resources into? Tomorrow's leaders doing their thing! 🚀
  • Construction detours making you late? Soon to be smooth sailing on better roads! 🛣️

Our superpower? Turning temporary rain clouds into growth opportunities! So grab your metaphorical umbrellas (or actual ones if you need them), and let's splash through this season together!

Rain or shine, we've got this! ☔☀️

Josh out! 🤙

Doing small things consistently is what makes them begin looking like magic, rather than...

Brain fog and focus

Hey Reader On campus, I watched schoolmates breeze through lectures while I struggled to make it past the first fifteen minutes without my mind wandering. Lecturers called it laziness. I called it exhausting. Image Credit: BBC Science Years later, nothing changed. I just learnt to work around it. Now I juggle three remote gigs. Customer service in the morning, data entry in the afternoon, and freelance writing whenever I can squeeze it in. Different logins, different deadlines, different...

Hey Reader I remember walking down the dusty campus road one humid evening, earbuds in, the sun painting everything gold. Burna Boy’s voice crackled through the cheap earphones I bought for ₦500 at the campus market, a line from Gbona echoing louder than the rest: “You no get money, you dey call police...”It hit different that day. Not just as a lyric, but as a mirror. There’s something about music in Nigeria especially from artists like Burna Boy that carries more than sound. Beneath the...
