Chef Hurts 2022

I feel the same pain as if I were watching the movie when the leading actor said “It hurts”, My friend and I always used this saying to indicate the last tier of hurt we feel when something happens and it hurts.

Death Be Not Proud has been always my go-to poem when there is a death and I need comfort, 2022 It was a useless tranquilizer to the pain I got when I lost my big aunt, she was indeed a rare jewel as they come, I can not express how unbelievable it is and the pain that comes with it, my mind be finding ways to cope by creating a feeling that she will be back when we at the tip of the boiling point with her funeral arrangements and say we did good, there is no need to go further, she was just testing us and we passed. Life can only go forward from here on.

I can comfortably say I know one or two things about death, lost my aunt and uncle in a short space, in both times it hurt like nothing you ever experienced because it’s new and will always be a unique pain, I can only imagine the immediate family as for me I am an onion skin layer away from the much pain epicenter. Thanks to a bible plan I came across while searching for why we die, Thanks to Tony Evans, in his bible plan about hurting, It is made clear that the Lord said we will get hurt and nothing can stop that from happening, even if you been in very good terms with the Lord, one gets to understand life greatest purpose is for the Lord, not that we pawns in his master plan, but we are essential in carrying out the master plan that would eventually save everyone.

During the ceremony at my Aunts funeral, the pastor opened Revelation 14 ves 13, which echoes that the Dead who were right with God are resting for their works will follow them, this gives comfort knowing that the pain is no more for the passed away loved ones, but is crucial for us all to be right with God, for we are assured a life of rest been right with him.

I say to all the people who lost loved ones, dudu(Sorry), stay strong in the Lord and introduce family members to our Lord and Saviour, through sharing his words and being an example through our works

Baked for too Long

I recently checked my blog posts and there was nothing for 2022, So I figured out I should put something even if it’s the end of the year, just to show proof of life, not another lost WordPress site as I pride myself in my self-hosted word-press as a developer.

Oh what is that above, A bunch of blog posts that never made it through publish ?, yes you guessed correctly, they were baked for too long. I heard a very situation-pinching quote today: “Whatever is not written is forgotten “, thank God still got some titles to key locate what was needed to be written, to my excuse I have been dealing with a lot this year, you can get a hint from the titles in the image.

I watched Prince EA recent video(link) the other day, where he addressed the question people have been asking about where he went since its been a long time since he posted something, it hit me that I also want to quit social media and concentrate on other creatives things that keeps my mind on manual mode without the auto consumption of media at all, I have gotten accustomed to absorbing social media this year, taking it as a drug to numb my exhaustion from an overall change in my situation, for a while it has been helpful in keeping up to date, but similar to my blog post that is over baked, it fried my mind and reduced the creativity juice in it.

Not promising anything to my audience, but to myself to go back to writing and publish the 1st medium post, after having a few under my belt on my WordPress.
