Perfection is an Illusion




 I'm only human, I'm not perfect. That's the emotional excuse humans give.

But are we really imperfect?

If we all agree we are imperfect, why do we frown at people who got their body/look via surgery?

They are obviously imperfect and want to be perfect. Isn't that what the world wants so what's the problem?

You know l use to be among the crowd that chant "No one is perfect" but l left that crowd when l realized Perfection is an Illusion.

Perfection is based on individual opinion.

Perfection means different things to different people based on their beliefs.

Does perfection mean l have to be like the person you want me to be?

Does it mean getting all thing right and nothing wrong?

Does it mean living my entire life trying to be good enough for everyone (is this even possible)?

Imperfection is a word society coined to fuel low self-esteem. Is there a yardstick to measure perfection or it's just in our head that we can never be perfect?

If l do anything wrong that's a mistake it doesn't call for imperception.

I don't know about you but I'm perfect

"I am art"

Made by the finest and most celebrated artist

He looked at me and called me perfect even with my flaws

I was made perfect even before I was born

If you perceive my flaws and scars which l got from the society as imperfection

Then you insult my maker

A Poetic Formal Letter to MEMAC Ogilvy

Listening to Rory Sutherland (vice-chairman of the Ogilvy) sparked an infinite interest in marketing in a young writer/social media marketer who’s fantasizing about both of us getting married and building a home together. I am thrilled to say I want to be a part of you (an unpaid internship) position at MEMAC Ogilvy Dubai , United Arab Emirates.  I am passionate about the new meaning of marketing, making marketing Psychological rather than logical. I would love to channel my skills as a writer and Marketing Intern. I'm not going to presume that you don't give a damn about the other ladies I've been with. So, while in Nigeria, I was in a relationship with a Tech company ( JD Lab ) as a writer and social media marketer. I don't typically do this, however, I became intimate with another lady (TEDxMinna) as a writer and social media Team Leader. I swear it wasn't long. I was in charge of managing the social media profiles and producing material for them. These women an...

My Opinion on Public Wedding Proposals

 Some people got engaged before, during, and after valentine's Day. Some people proposed publicly and others in their houses. We get all emotional when we watch videos where she said yes l will marry you regardless of the location (lekki mall, Container Bistro, Michael Garden, etc)   I know you've watched that video where a girl was overexcited and she started screaming and couldn't control her joy. (It's funny to some people, it's spiritual to some but nobody insulted the guy for proposing in public). But when we watch a video where the reply is "embarrassing" especially if the proposal is public we blame the men, insult them, and ask questions like What happen to proposing at home? You should know what your girl likes, does she like it public or hidden? Etc No one asked these questions when the reply was positive WHY??? This is my opinion: women are to be blamed for being in a relationship with someone they can't get married to. Even if a girl wants ...

18th of May, l witnessed a robbery

So 18th May was Avura's birthday and while l was wiping off the dirt on her table caused by the flowers we used to decorate her table l heard someone screaming. Now my first suspension was a movie scene  made Helen and Stella scream but then the scream came again and again. And l was like is stella beating Helen ( I had to clear my suspicions so like someone who has a power of an ant but as brave as an xxx) l stormed out of the room to know why the scream. But to my disbelief it wasn't Helen and stella,  the scream wasn't even coming from the room in which Helen and stella were apparently Helen wasn't getting beaten up. The noise came from the shops outside the building.  And as l approached the window from where l could see the cause for the screaming the scream be became clear. It was a cry for help. A woman was being robbered- they we're with a gun,  that l could see that it was fake. I watched them run back took her Pos machine and her phone, chased a guy who ca...
