Hameed II@SalawuHameedO2·
One of my favourite short form stories is the one told by Leo Tostoy. It's called "How much land does a man need." It tells the story of a peasant named Pahom, who believes that if he only had enough land, he wouldn’t fear anything—not even the devil. Here's how it goes: Pahom lives a simple life but envies landowners. When he finally gets the chance to buy some land, he feels satisfied… briefly. Soon, he wants more. And when he gets more, he still isn’t content. The more land he acquires, the more greedy and restless he becomes. One day, he hears of a distant group of people- the Bashkirs— who are willing to sell land at a very cheap rate. This is where it gets interesting: Their deal is simple: For a fixed price, you can have as much land as you can walk around in a single day. But there’s a catch — you must return to your starting point before sunset, or you lose everything. Excited, Pahom sets out early in the morning. As he walks, he keeps pushing further, thinking, “Just a little more land… just a bit more.” He ignores the heat, exhaustion, and time. By afternoon, he realizes he’s gone too far and must rush back before sunset. Panicked, he starts running. His body is failing, his breath is heavy, but greed drives him forward. Just as the sun is setting, he reaches the starting point and collapses. Dead. In the end, his servant buries him in a grave. Six feet long. The lesson: All the land he chased… All he truly needed… was enough to be buried in. I hope that answers the question of how much money is really enough money

@TheQueenDiva01 I'm not invalidating your cravings; we all have them. May God continue to provide so you can afford your cravings. What I'm saying is that you can only ask a man to satisfy your cravings because he's available.

@ossaivictor1_ If a man impregnates a woman and refuses to take responsibility, or he's a sailor like my uncle who comes home once a year, will she be calling him to provide suya and watermelon? Women do all those things because they know you're available.

@AmiolaAfolabi The key thing is to engineer your home such that the possibility of it ever occurring is zero. But if it happened to someone who asks me what to do, both women should go and sleep on their respective matrimonial beds.

As a lecturer, I don't just teach the course content alone, I digress a lot. Practically it allows me to teach my students other things ranging from geography, history, social matters and of course Yorùbá😎. Many of my students also love it that way, but I knew few who don't really like it (they are like teach your microbiology and go). The attached video narrated how I digressed from microbial ecology to explaining the meaning of APAOKAGI in Taaooma's name Btw, Do you like a lecturer who digress like me or not?

I am consciously working towards removing "Google it" in my lingua whenever I want to direct a person to garner more info on sth Google is fake news and indoctrination Grok is the best but saying "Grok it" sounds like I left a psychiatrist's office Learn or learn the hard way.

Soweto, an abbreviation for South Western Townships, is a major urban complex in Johannesburg, South Africa, holding over a million people. Historically significant as a hub of apartheid resistance, notably the 1976 student uprisings, it is now a vibrant cultural center featuring landmarks like the Mandela House and Apartheid Museum.
