Blogging and searching for posts isn’t as easy as it looks. There are days when life gives you hints and there are also days when nothing comes to mind. Today being the latter instance, I made up my mind to write something nonetheless. Please don’t be drawn back by my somewhat new blogging pattern. I’ve come to understand that everyone nowadays is wrapped up in their issues and no one seems to have time to spare. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to criticize, just stating the obvious. There’s nothing as bad as getting so used to asking about…

This is quite an odd narrative I’m about to share but it is a true-life account of the challenges we warriors experience daily. It states in detail what it was like growing up for Mr. Adekunle Gold, a Nigerian highlife singer/songwriter who gained popularity, after releasing the 2015 hit single “Sade”. Tagged as “Surviving Sickle Cell to become a music star”. His account in every single way narrates my personal experiences shared on this blog. Please see below the link to the post which was shared on the Instagram handle of lindaikejiblogofficial. Reference: @lindaikejiblogofficial – “My Truth”

As I mentally counted the number of activities (hobbies) I’d ventured into of late, I realized that it wasn’t so bad. Some activities take time and consistency to bring up lasting results. Consistency is one definite feature of success; mine isn’t excluded from the list. Browsing through the home page of my Facebook wall, I stumbled once more on a quote that I deemed to be a continuation from last week. It’s a pretty subtle quote that has a way of making you note the people that could fall into the category. However, this wasn’t what got me, rather, it…

I hadn’t forgotten you all. I simply took some time off to try to re-strategize and think of other ways to move the blog forward. I have books I’ve written which I’ve been dragging my feet in launching as e-books. There’s no reason but the inner gut feeling, that it may not be the best timing. As I searched deep for other ideas, one of which is already in the store, I kept telling myself that it would be wrong to venture into so much and not keep up with any. So, I’m taking my time and watching my strides. I…

I’ve discovered that speaking in paradoxes can be so much fun especially when the hearer can decode the language immediately.“The enemy of my enemy is my friend” can be viewed as a simple example of a paradox. Now I’ll take it up a notch by stating a more complicated one.“You should learn to walk before you run because when you don’t, the problems you encounter will prevent you from going further”. It is quite complicated, isn’t it? The master potter gave me this above paradox when I was at my wit’s end concerning a very delicate issue.First of all, you…

Recently, I stumbled on a Facebook page strictly for life quotes. It’s called ‘Life Mello’. Reading some of the quotes shared on my news feed of late, seem to get me. I’ll briefly share one of such quotes that got me thinking but before I do so, let me give a brief background. On many occasions, if one has a peaceful life, they tend to question out loud if they’re doing everything right. One of such questions could be, why there seems to be so much tranquility in their circle. This sometimes keeps them longing for a bit of activity.…

She’s right here. I learned something new the previous week but before I delve into that, let me ask this question. After listening to my song, do you have feedback for me? I long to hear your review. Just let me know your thoughts, please. What about the rhythm of the song? Did you like that also? Thanks to all those that gave their comments. I do intend to sing. Hopefully, in subsequent releases, I will be singing and not reading. That being said, I guess I’ll delve into my post for the day. Last week, I saw a physiotherapist…

I guess I should explain how the purchase of my single album on this blog works. The album is a downloadable Mp3 file.

Depending on the settings of your mailbox, the links to the downloadable file may be sent to your spam folder. So please check there if you do not see the mail. However, my addresses link has been updated if you need to escalate further issues…

You all are such an interesting group of readers. Sometimes I wonder how to make you all interact more on this site. I’m sure you’ve noticed the newest addition to my shop? At least now, I’ve fulfilled my promise for an element of surprise this year. So I’m off the hook. There’s also a short snippet of the music added to the mp3 file on the shop. It turns out that the single will not be available in music stores until the 28th of May 2022. So I’ve uploaded the entire album to my shop for your quick access. Until…

There’s always a first time for everything. I recall when I started having different musical compositions coming to my mind. I thought it to be rather strange. Sometimes when I become engrossed in activities like house chores, different rhythms would be pouring from within me and I would find myself either humming to the tunes or dancing. Lol. For a while, I kept questioning what I could do with them until one day, I found myself in the company of some individuals, who unknown to me were music producers. They asked me to sing when they heard my audible voice…
