May our sons be boys!

Spain will beat france tonight

I went to spend a few weeks’ holiday at my uncle’s place, who owns a layer poultry farm. My plan was simple😌rest, chop life, and enjoy myself. 😂 But immediately I got there and discovered the man was managing over 2,000+ layer birds, I just smiled and said to myself…

I’m fucking overdue for a big win man

🎶 Èmí Mímó o sé o Èmí àwon Wòòlí Ìwo kúkú lagbárami Èmí Mímó o sé… 🎶 Appreciation. Gratitude. Thanksgiving.

I watched Messi’s debut for Barça. I’ve seen more than a thousand of his games. I’ve seen him win everything. Yet I think this will be the game that defines him forever. It’s the perfect analogy for his entire career. He never gives up. Not as a kid who needed treatment to become a professional. Not after retiring from the national team in 2016. He came back, dragged Argentina to the World Cup with a hattrick in the final qualifier, then lost another World Cup in 2018. Then another Copa América in 2019. He just kept going until he won everything. We all know his story by now. It’s the most inspiring story in football. Today he could barely run, but he kept going and turned the game around through sheer determination. Yes, he’s the most talented football player ever, but he’s also a fighter who refuses to give up. To play at this level at the age of 39 is absurd. It doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t feel real. Yet here he is, still inspiring all of us to never give up and keep fighting for our dreams.

every time you find yourself in a position where you have no options, you become vulnerable. pay solid attention; when people know you have nowhere else to go, they can take advantage of you. that is why having options matters. your degree is valuable but it should never be your only path. build skills, create opportunities and give yourself choices. even in campuses, many students didn't study the course they truly wanted. they studied what was available cos there seemed to be no other option. some wanted law but were offered pub admin while others settled cos of financial limitations or circumstances beyond their control. life becomes much harder when you feel trapped but when you have options, you gain freedom, confidence and the ability to walk away from what no longer serves you. never stop creating options for yourself. they are not just opportunities, they are a form of security, independence and dignity.
