What is home? By dictionary definition, a home is a person's permanent living space. By my definition, a home is where you feel secure, it’s where your belongings are, it’s where you make your childhood memories that last a lifetime. If one understands and has a place they call home, they would know that there is no concrete description of one. The answer to the question of where my home is should be quite simple yet a question so elementary always leaves me confused. I get asked this question…

Have you ever had a passion? A passion that you were really serious about? Well if you have then you know that it has many qualities and ways it can be a positive input to the world. My passion is Physical Therapy for many reasons, it’s difficult sessions and empathy pushes you to be a stronger person that can handle lots of difficult cases that therapist go through on a daily bases. Physical Therapy is my passion because I love to help and I love to watch people grow and later succeed in…

What Is Home? For some people, home is the place they return to each night after they end their day at school or at work. Home is the place that has four walls, a roof, a kitchen, bathroom, and living room where they can sit down and put their meet up in front of the television as they relax from a long, stressful day. For other people, home is cannot be found in a specific physical structure or geographical location, and is, instead, a feeling of comfort and safety that a certain place…

Ever since I was little I always wondered why I was never good enough for anything. I felt like I was not good enough for my family, and I still believe this to this day. My family treats me so different than they do to anyone else. I know I was never good enough in school because no one ever wanted me in their class. I strived for straight “A”s and sometimes that just was not enough. I wanted all the extra credit and higher grades than anyone. I made it a mission to do everything that I could…

Although my past relationship was not “Facebook Official” as we call it nowadays and we never really went on “dates,” I still consider this a relationship to myself. There was a physical connection that I felt towards this person, but I wonder if he felt the same connection that I did. Life in a small town… I grew up in the small town of Shenandoah – one of those small towns where everyone knows everyone, word gets around and rumors spread like wildfire. Even though my “relationship” was kept…

I decided to write about my relationship with my dad in this post because Father’s Day just passed and because I’ve already made a post about the incredible bond I have with my dad. In that post I mentioned that he was away in Korea when I was born and I didn’t get to see him until I was 7 months old. My mother, who was only 22 at the time, had a lot of responsibility taking care of the three of us who were all under 3 years old. When my dad came home he took over the caregiving duties for me…

The Key To Happiness! Everyone wants to be happy but people aren’t always great at predicting what will make them happy. When we are asked the question what makes us happy? We jump to a conclusion really quick without actually knowing what happiness really is. We all have different definitions of happiness and that is good because no one’s is going to be the same. For instance, someone’s happiness could be finding a shoe sale or watching the sunset at the beach another could say getting married…

Not All Ghosts Say Boo After reading the Ghosts and seeing the live production, my ideas and thoughts about some of the parts of the play changed dramatically. As a reader, I was only seeing it through my eyes, but after watching the performance, I can the play in a different light. My ideas on Mrs. Alving, Engstrand and Regina changed, the way that I saw the antagonist and protagonist changed, and my thoughts on who burned the orphanage changed. The production of Ghosts differed in multiple…

Let me first of all say that I’m Nigerian and how big a deal and normal it is for at least 7 out of 10 Nigerian parents to continuously nag their children about how many relatives are watching them and waiting for them to succeed. Most times the children including myself have no idea who most of these extra relatives are because previously we only knew a handful now members of the community and church attendees who we once said hello to because our parents accidentally bumped into them after…

“Don’t lose heart. There is a force within you that is more powerful than any adversity or problem you face.” This quote is absolutely right. Every single person on this planet sustains a strength that outweighs all of their adversities. Everybody should understand and remember this quote throughout their life. People believe that their heartbeat and their life are related. People also believe that if their heart beat didn’t go up and down they would not be surviving. Then why do they expect…
