The Colorful Year

RED
Red eyes everywhere, New year , New Resolutions, another round of bullshit but for the first time in a while, I acted. Burning with Passion, Ambitions Piling, Dreams booting, I dropped my resignation, no more 8-5 for me ( tah who am I kidding more like 8am - 10pm) but uneasy lies the head that wears the crown... Jayeoba

GREEN
The Land is green but not my paper, diaris God o.
Yes I am green, but I am not entirely new to this, groping in the darkness of node.js ; staying on the edge with docker; whilst trying to go-Live with SAP. Well they said the Land is greener on the other side, lessons learnt the greener the grass the more poisonous the snakes. God dey sha....Akinlolu

BLUE
Feeling blue?... His thoughts towards us are of peace and not evil, to give an expected end.
Tell God your plans let him have a good Laugh, its been a funny year. A year when the I AM shows you he can do anything, A year God made a 5000m marathon look like an 100m dash. A year I learnt with God by my side, I can defy gravity. I think I am out of the Blue for now Alihamdulilahi ( After the Reggae play the blues ).... Ayobami

YELLOW
Hello from the other side... count your blessings and name them one by one. For Family, For Love and for great Friends.
If Daddy G.O. told me last year that 2015 would be like this I would shout a big AMEN and ask HOW? But beyond my wildest imaginations events unfolded, Strength I didn't know i had, Tenacity to see things through, Favour from all sides . I still cant believe half of it, It could have only been God. What takes some people a lifetime, Baba turn am to appetizer.... Olubunmi



It was a great year 2015... I am pumped for 2016... Cant wait!!!

On to the Next One

Been over a year have been here man... Removes cobweb from the blog.

Anyway below is an excerpt of the letter I sent when I recently changed jobs....

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colours. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”  ― Terry Pratchett

Its been a great honour working with every one of  you, I am blessed to be surrounded by this wonderful family. Thanks for each minute you spent motivating, the hours spent chastising and days we spent toiling to make the world better in our own way.

As most of you are aware, I resigned from my position in XXXX Solutions Ltd, and boy what an experience its has been. I would have to publish a book if I have to chronicle the events as they unfolded while I was working with this crop of amazing  people in XXXX Solutions, but it would suffice to say I came, I learnt, I'm Blessed and I'm growing.

Thanks a Lot and I hope my number would still be on speed dial whenever I am needed, I am still Loyal to your governments o.

God Bless You.

“You can't stop the future You can't rewind the past The only way to learn the secret ...is to press play.” ― Jay Asher

Start Where You are

If you are waiting till you get the round peg in the round hole before you make that move, it might just be too late...get ur chisel and transform that square peg to the round one and it would fit that hole( No pun intended :)).


Before u accept ur present condition as permanent do a litmus test "Is Your present situation ur Fate or a State you found urself in"... Get ur present coordinates nd make a dash/Step/Crawl to where u want to be. You need satellite Navigation?, Look up to the Almighty, He is always there, the help in times of trouble and the all Knowing one.


 That step u take now is one less step needed... The road to redemption has no GPS get ur compass and Map handy.... Ciao

Ara mbe

2011 was an eventful year,
A year of so many hopings, A year of many dreams, A year of many ambitions. But most of all, a year that saw so many of the hopes dreams and ambitions floated and even though we cant see the impact yet.
I can definitely say, the Lord as helped me thus far.
Alihamdulilahi

Sanity Check

I am Pressing up the Upward way

New Heights I am gaining Everyday
...
Lord lead me up the mountain side

I dare not climb without Guide.

And yet again as I play this "merixed" hymn in my head, I found my pen in the midst of the confusion.

Everybody be asking, Ayobami are you mad?, and probably I am, but as an incurable optimist , I would always look for something good in a messed up situation; and as a self proclaimed realist, I know that shit happens, so you either use tissue or "tamba" with water, whichever you choose Biko, move on to the next one(or Toilet as u please).

Yeah, I can see everything nd indeed evrybody around me turning around, but climbing this mountain no be small thing o but Jah be praised coz I'm not climbing alone. At that akward moment when you discover all you have is a bank account full of Hope, Pleanty 'Ghana must go' s of Faith in His Supremacy. At that point in time u notice say u dey ride on Tsunami waves nd somehow u no dey drown, when u wake up inside that furnace nd u wonder why ur "Tailor Lauren" Shirt is still crisp, why instead of been consumed, you came out shining.

Ok, lets make that switch back to reality(* pinching myself), How sane am I to believe that out of the 7Billion people on earth today, he cares that much abt me, That he could be interested in that unimportant part of my Life. Nah, its not only the gods that are crazy, I think I'm losing it, No one man should be this enthusiastic, Life is to complicated to have a simple answer.

Well perhaps it's true, but this craze man got a simple answer from Jer 1:5 :

Your Faith makes you whole

Mehn, it's been ages I came to the zones o....would you blame me? Please don't
Work has been crazy, i mean mad and when we are not really busy we still find it convenient to form activity.. smh 4 myself.

The main rationale for writing this letter to you is to erm...lol( tryna rmbr d way we do in High sch), I saw this stuff by Mark Twain nd it got me thinking
"Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember: it didn't work for the rabbit"

whateva you believe in is what I actually works for you. On the contrary even if you beleive you can fly u beta mk sure you wings takes care of gravity.

I really need to get back to work nw sha,...Catchao

Through my eyes

The future through my eyes I see,
I am no seer, yet in this darkness I see,
A bright Light at the end of the tunnel, I see
Unsure if the bulbs are powered by generators or PHCN.

No Corruption in this future I see,
Still unsure who made this happen, ICPC or EFCC?
A working transport system, I see
If its BRT, Ferry, rail or Air, I cant say
But no more abandoned roads by RCC or LCC.



Security of Lives and Properties, I see
My visions r clouded, is dis the Police or OPC?
Well Equiped, First Class Health Facilities,
Gone are the days when, all ailments are treated with Vit. C.



No more uprising by NigerDeltans, Boko Haram or Bakassi,
In this future, One NIGERIA is all I see.
Access to Credit facilities in our banking industry
Who was our savior, maybe Lamido Sanusi?
