“Plus 1” Syndrome: does it have a hold on you?

People celebrate birthday everyday because every day is someone’s birthday elsewhere. There are lots of birthday songs out there to complement this thing called birth-day. What is birthday? It is that simple: the day you were born. Why do people celebrate their birthdays? Haha!! To mark the day they were born into this Plane of Existence called Earth!

Countries, organizations and other institutions celebrate their birthday (also known as Independence Day celebrations). I am from Nigeria and the Nigeria’s independence (assuming Nigeria is truly independent) is celebrated every October 1st because Nigeria got a so-called independence from Britain in October 1st 1960.

In Christianity, Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ on the 25th December of every year which is called Christmas; other religions have their own days where they celebrate the birth of whatever Deities they believe in as well.

I am the curator lol! So I still have my pictures of my birthday when I was a child. You know the childhood birthday pictures you snap back in the days….it is always full of memories, love and innocence! As I have grown older; I have not paid much attention to celebrating my birthday as I don’t see it as something that has a top priority in my life. Although when I was a Jehovah’s Witness celebrating birthday was demonized. I am a Virgo and September is my birthday (September 22 to be precise). But my attention is not even focused on celebrating my birthday; I think it does not matter to me whether I celebrate my birthday or not. I am not attached to celebrating my birthday (side note: not because a teaching from my former religion Jehovah’s Witness).

My Birthday Picture with my Mom when I was a child

Before now, I mean many years back—when people were celebrating their birthdays I used to hear them say out their actual age with joy and proud. But for a reason I am yet to fathom the narrative has changed!! Nowadays, when people are celebrating their birthdays what you hear is “I am +1 today…” I think that is MADNESS! Why do you think someone who is celebrating his or her birthday should hide his age or her age? Is there any crime in saying out your age?

Apart from this trend that has taken up birthday celebration; people seem to be very attached to celebrating birthdays. I am not against it but the way people go about it most times is quite alarming and can be a cause of raising eyebrow…my opinion is everything should be done in moderation and decently.

What is your take on people hiding their age during their birthday celebration? Are there any cultural beliefs, stereotype or spiritual meaning attached to people not wanting to say out their age during their birthday celebrations? Do you think the word “+1” is the right thing to say during someone’s birthday celebration? What would happen or what is the worst that could happen if someone says out his or her actual age during their birthday celebration? Is it that people are ashamed to say out their actual age during birthday celebrations? Are you among those categories of people who have been adopted the term “+1”? If yes, why did you start using +1 during your birthday celebrations?

To everyone who is celebrating their birthday I wish you an abundant and superb birthday. Wishing you an aging with Grace and Glory!

GHADA GAD STOLE MY POEMS!!!

Egypt has been a country I value and honour since my childhood. According to history; civilization started from Egypt and Egypt has one of the Seven Wonders of the World! I have always been fascinated by Egyptian history, culture, people and mythologies. When I was in high school I would sit in the library for hours exploring Egyptian mythologies. As one who loves voyaging Egypt is among my favorite tourist destination—but because of what I have experienced from an Egyptian; I would now say that Egypt used to be among favorite tourist destination; because I am no longer holding Egypt in a high esteem. Neither are my honouring Egypt again! Suffice to say that I have begun seeing all Egyptians and Egypt as a country in entirety as WICKED, DECEITFUL and PHONY!! There is a reason for this: remember it takes only one grain sand to tip the scale in either direction.

One Egyptian has made me to see all Egyptians as the same. Why? Because I trusted this Egyptian woman called Ghada Gad. She is a journalist and a translator but she took my trust and respect I had for her as a weakness. However, I have the FULL confidence and FAITH that the Universe, Karma, Kwan Yin, Angels and the Cosmic Forces are coming after Ghada Gad; because Ghada Gad MUST face the consequences of what she has done to me. There is no way Ghada Gad is going to escape her Nemesis of her actions!

I know someone will be asking what Ghada Gad did to Kingsley and what happened? What happened and what Ghada Gad did to Kingsley is this: Ghada Gad stole my poems!! Read through my explanations below.

One Egyptian journalist and translator by name Ghada Gad. I met Ghada Gad on LinkedIn 2022; according to the LinkedIn profile of Ghada Gad, she is a Translator (English/Arabic)& classicist (Freelance journalist). Ghada Gad has 500+ connections on LinkedIn. Her location specifies Alexandria, Egypt and her educational institution also specifies Alexandria University. She has an M.A. of literary criticism in 2008 from Alexandria University. Anyway, I will attach screenshot of Ghada Gad LinkedIn profile.

Now, the problem I am having with Ghada Gad is that she stole my poems!!!Let me explain:

After I met Ghada on LinkedIn we started having a good rapport. It was there I introduced myself to her that I am a writer. Yes, I have a children’s book on Amazon and other bookstores worldwide; the title is Cindy and Her Beautiful Bird. I am also a blogger at www.kingsley-osajie.com and I am from Delta State, Nigeria but I live in Abuja, Nigeria. Ghada Gad and I started having mutual conversations. Subsequently, I told Ghada Gad about my love and familiarity for Egypt. How I used to stay up late in the library reading about Egyptian mythology, culture and history when I was in high school. It seemed very fascinating to Ghada Gad. From there I told Ghada Gad that I have written a poem about the Sphinx in Egypt and the Nile River. Ghada Gad was really excited and she asked me to send her my poems about Egypt. I felt a little reluctant to send her my poems but I thought of how we have been conversing for some months and I thought that Ghada Gad was an authentic and credible person so I sent her my poems via email. The screenshot I have attach here in this post.

I sent Ghada my poems on April 12, 2022. I sent it to her email address (ghadagad1975@yahoo.com) she acknowledged receipt and promised me that she would make sure my poems are published. That she was going to start working on the translation of my poems into Arabic and once she is done she would forward it to an editor and then it would be published. I have evidences of my conversation with Ghada Gad on LinkedIn.

After giving me her words that I should not worry that she (Ghada Gad) would publish my poems the next thing I saw is that Ghada Gad blocked me on LinkedIn. I could not reach her on LinkedIn anymore but there was no way I could send her messages. She also deleted her messages to me; but thankful to LinkedIn because I was able to retrieve Ghada Gad deleted messages, view them and made screenshots of them.

Ghada Gad has made my view of Egypt and Egyptians to tilt…I am not happy with Ghada Gad. Ghada Gad MUST be brought to book and justice should be given out to me. Ghada Gad should publish my poems as she has previously agreed.

“The game of Life is a game of boomerangs. Our deeds, words and thoughts returns to us, sooner or later with astounding accuracy.” Florence Scovel Shinn

No matter what, Ghada Gad must face the consequences of her actions and I am open for anyone to join me in this cause for Ghada Gad to be exposed. There is no peace for the wicked.

DESTINATION

In this ever-evolving Universe, everything is vibrating and everything is moving: either in different directions or the same directions. Nothing is stagnant. Everything and everyone has “where” they are going to. It is a common communication between people—when you get to the motor park you are being asked your destination. It applies to the airport, railway station and every other aspects of human existence.

One day, I was in the cab—I was not the only one in the cab; there were other passengers. The cab was moving and everyone was on silence. With time, each passenger started alighting at their various destinations. So it happened till I was the only one remaining in the cab. Just me and the driver—I actually began to feel a kind of lonely, sober and curious…I was filled with wonder. Inside my mind I was thinking something: and I was thinking about destinations. Not only was I thinking about the destinations of my fellow passengers. I was also thinking about life too. I looked out from the window and I saw cars, vehicles etc moving to-and-fro in different directions…all headed to a particular but different destinations!

Each time I see cars and vehicles moving to and fro. Where are they going to? They all have their destinations. Same thing applies when I am on the highway; you see people moving up and down, left and right etc. they all have different destinations! That is to show you that everything is moving.

Now, the BIG question, is do you have a destination? Do you know your destination? The word destiny, destined and destination all has the same meaning because it talks about a path of life…I mean Life-Path—and when you are following a path it is leading YOU “somewhere.” So, when you hear people talk about destiny just remember that they are talking about the path of life your Soul has chosen to follow or live in. Everyone cannot have the same destiny. I know my destination and I am following it.

Again, I will round up this post by asking you: what is your destination? Where is your destination?

WHY DO PEOPLE USE ROAD SIDE MANICURE AND PEDICURE?

By nature, humans are “crazy” including me! Lol! There is something I have been noticing…now people will say it is a normal thing or justify it by saying that is a personal hygienic practice. Hmm…well it ought to be a personal hygienic practice; but then I think there is a limit to things we should do. Although it all boils down to different strokes for different folks!

Actually, I never thought I would write about something like this but it became so recurrent and prevalent that it caught my attention and I have to. The question now is, is this habit born out of laziness…? Let me go straight to the topic:

You know it is good to maintain a good personal hygienic routine. But at the same time I think we should exercise some level of boundaries and standards. Nowadays, I see that most people especially in the streets I see this happening. They have turned to these Hausa men to take care of their manicure and pedicure. Now, these people are just ordinary citizens. These Hausa men do the manicure and pedicure for these people and they pay them. BUT, I do not find it hygienic or a good thing. The question is, what it will take for someone to use the razor or nail clipper to cut their finger nails and toe nails? Why wait for someone else to come and do that for you. And the craziest thing is that you see them stretch out their hands or feet and the Hausa man does the pedicure and manicure innocently and attentively. It looks crazy to me.

Do not get me wrong. I love taking care of my body as well but not in this way. Even if I want to have manicure and pedicure; it should not be done by the street men. In fact, suffice to say that it is not even healthy. Going to a saloon is better than just stopping one Hausa man to come and cut your finger nails and toe nails for you. I was with someone some time ago and the person called a Hausa to come and caught his finger nails. In the process, the Hausa man was mistakenly cutting his flesh. How irritated I was!!

Another question, is how sanitized and sterilized are the equipments of these Hausa men used in manicure and pedicure? It is so sad that many people do not pay attention to their health. Forgetting that through these unhygienic health practices they are opening themselves up to contact infections and diseases.

One will say that I am trying to put those Hausa men out of business by condemning their work. I am not really condemning their work. What I am doing is a constructive criticism. In advanced countries of the world such unhygienic practices do not happen. The ideal thing is for these Hausa men to open up a saloon shop where people will come and patronize them. That way it would be more hygienic and better; but if you want to start analyzing that it boils down to our country we are living that is lope-sided and backward.

Do you use roadside manicure and pedicure to treat your finger nails and toe nails?

“She MUST DIE Before Me”!

When you hear the kind of life orientation and mentality of some people you will be dumbfounded. You begin to ask yourself what kind of blood is flowing in such person’s body. No doubt, we are living in a patriarchal society…some times when I remember my experience from whence the title of this post came from I am left dumbfounded and shrugging my shoulder in WONDER.

It was during the Christmas season in 2020; I went to a meeting—that meeting is a contribution meeting where they share foodstuffs at the end of the year. But I am not a member of the meeting. I went there to represent my brother as he was not around. There in the meeting, there is this pandemonium which can be either a good one or bad one. In such gatherings altercations are not left out. I actually minded my own business and acted as a spectator; they shared palm wine (known as Ozuu) in my native language. I love palm wine because it is natural and nourishing!

As we were enjoying the palm wine; a lady walked into the compound to fetch water—and then came a murmuring and uproar…one man sitting opposite me gave the lady a nasty look and hissed with anger. “Women of nowadays are nothing to write home about…how can a woman be wearing that kind of dress….”? The young lady was wearing a tight trouser showing the shape of her body and skin. I am sure she did not know they were talking about her. Some of the men in the meeting were laughing while others were joined in the scolding.

The man who began talking about the lady took it very personal because he was very angry. “Don’t be surprised that this lady is married and she is dressing like this…” he said with resentment. “That is why I have said that my wife must die before me. She must die before me.” He affirmed emphatically and passionately. One man among them asked him his reason for saying such statement and he answered: “If I die before my wife she will have the privilege to start dressing the way she likes; another man will take her and start having relationship with her. Even in my grave I will not be happy with her and I will seek revenge. So she must die before me that is the only way there will be peace…”

“So you do not want your wife to have a companion if you are dead. Besides, don’t you think two of you will grow old together and by that time you must have finished training your children and it will be just the two of you? Or is it not your wish for the two of you to grow old together”? Another man told him. “Men often die before their wives because of the struggles and suffering men pass through in order to provide for their wife and children. So if I die before my wife another man will come and take and start enjoying what I have labored for. That cannot happen! She must die before me! From his countenance one could tell easily that he is a vindictive and malicious person—the territorial and jealous partners!

I could not believe my ears and eyes when I heard him say these. In my mind, I was like: now the poor wife is at home innocent; maybe she is hurrying to prepare meal for her beloved husband and the so-called beloved husband is outside planning evil ahead of her! Too bad! In my own opinion and full transparency; I do not think this man is a good man. He does not love the wife—otherwise why would he have such plans.

On the other hand do you think a wife would say such or wish such for her husband?

ENCHANTED!!

This Earth we live in is a sea of energy!! Earth—though appears to be a physical realm; but trust me Earth is a realm that has both the physical and spiritual energies in it. Like Zoroaster correctly said “There is one God and a continuous struggle between the forces light and darkness.” When I was a Jehovah’s Witness, we were taught not to believe in some spiritual acts which happen to humans or caused by humans: even if you want to call it witchcraft, spell, hexes, jinxes, black magic. During my time as a Jehovah’s Witness, I subliminally knew that life is beyond the physical and that there is more than meet the eyes…!

I was in a spiritual gathering some time ago when a young man shared an experience of what HAPPENED to him. It is SO OVERWHELMING and decided not to keep it to myself but to share with you a very touching story that happened to a young man. To protect his identity and privacy, I will call him Samson in this article (even if it not his real name).

One Sunday morning in the spiritual gathering I was in with my friend. During the activities; a young handsome guy came forward to share what happened him. Samson came forward and introduced himself. He was living in Germany and doing well in Germany. As we are living in a modern and digital world; there are many ways to meet people especially on the internet. Samson is a young guy who was ready to be in a relationship and get married. According to him, he met a girl online and they started chatting. They were chatting while he was in Germany. Until “SOMETHING” happened!

Samson said he has been in Nigeria for the past two years and “forgot” to go back to Germany. Now, the question is why would someone who is living abroad; visited Nigeria and then forget to go back to Germany? Something should be amiss somewhere—do not you think so? As Samson shared his story everyone was listening with a rapt attention; including me! And then Samson dropped the breaking news….his forgetting to back to Germany was caused by a spelled he was under its influence!!!!

The girl Samson was dating went to a Babalawo (Shaman) and cast a spell on Samson to not remember to go back to Germany. According to Samson, his intention was to come to Nigeria, spend some time with the girl, go back to Germany and then come back and wed the girl and take her to Germany. But something happened—according to him; he was spending on the girl and her family; even footing the bills of the girl’s university school fees. He continued this way for complete two years—he said one day he was lying on the bed when he felt like scales were out of his eyes and that he regained his sense/consciousness! He asked me himself subliminally “What are my still doing in Nigeria”? He checked the calendar and realized that he has been in Nigeria for two years forgetting his job and residence in Germany!! With synchronicity, he came across a prophet who revealed to him that he was under a spell that is why he has not gone back to Germany.

It was revealed to Samson that the girl he was dating took his picture to a shaman who broke many eggs on his (Samson) head and tied him spiritually so that he would not go back to Germany and to always do the bidding of the girl he was dating! The prophet instructed Samson to go on a one week fasting and prayer so that the spell can be broken; having heard this Samson was shocked and overwhelmed; he had no choice than to obey the prophet’s instruction. Later on, he met the girl and jokingly decided to check her phone; behold! There were the pictures of the witchcraft activities and spell that was worked on Samson! He could not believe his eyes and that was the end of the relationship.

After the service, Samson was prayed for and counseled. According to him, he said he felt inspired to come and join us in the spiritual gathering. When he finished sharing his experience with us, he told us that he went to the German embassy in Nigeria to sort out his travelling schedules; that his travelling documents were all ready. Samson went back to Germany the following week.

Praise God!!

One thing I know for sure is that; no matter how strong and powerful a black magic/witchcraft activities or demonic forces may seem to be. Against the power of Light there can be n victory!

Light will always conquers darkness

‘Until Black Lives Matter to Black People, Nobody Cares’ – Cynthia Morgan

I have been following up with the issue of Black Lives Matter; and I have a LOT to say about it. There are some BITTER TRUTHS that needs to be exposed!! But that would be a story for another day; in the meantime I thought I would share with you this overwhelming, inspiring, beautiful and thought-provoking write up by a Nigerian singer: Cynthia Morgan.

Before I share with you Cynthia Morgan perspective on the Black Lives Matter; I would like to let you know that I never had a regard for Cynthia Morgan until I read her write up. Upon reading it; I was like WOW!! So this woman has such intellectual prowess and wisdom? Quickly, I followed her in all her social media platforms, downloaded her songs, pictures and started using her song as my caller tune.

Truth be told, Cynthia really made a salient point. Hear what she has to say below

I am not an American, but I am a Black woman. Maybe the America saga is none of my business but I am Human, Ok, I have seen two of the most horrific videos in my life time.

Never seen somebody die that way with no respect whatsoever and all I see is black people ranting on social media created by our white friends. Some of them might not like us, just know we caused it.

It all goes back to when it all started. White people bought slaves from who? BLACK people, and who are these slaves? Black people. We sold ourselves out and lost our respect the day this trade took place.

A white man cannot have respect for a race that sold their own race to other race not for marriage or better life but for slavery. White people being smart enough then they thought superior and gained it. Have you ever thought it could have been the other way round?

Like the whites could have been in this position right now? But one race was just smarter at that point in time. Now our forefathers already made that mistake. Can we correct it? Yes. How? By gaining our respect and equality and its not by fighting these white people, its about knowing ourselves and finding our respect and in doing so, regrets and blames won’t help us.

Now we have to stand up and earn our respects back, and it’s not by crying on social media and begging for equality like spoilt babies.

Ya all need a Black Nation.
Invest more on black people and black ideas.
Let every black life count to you as a black person first before you preach it to other people.

White people have every right to be proud and do whatever pleases them. Its only natural, that’s how people act when they see all your comfort and life depends on them.

What we are fighting is more than just color thing, It’s more of mentality problems and it’s a way of the devil putting separation and chaos in the world so we all won’t come together and be in peace.

If we all in peace how then can he fulfill taking people to hell with him? And this has to be fought with God’s knowledge not guns, only cowards pull guns in a towel fight, even this cops knows this.

The only reason why white cops don’t and wouldn’t kill a white man is because they respect themselves and they know what they have put into building their nation. It’s hard before you see a white man pull a white man down intentionally.

Black People are special people, we need to believe more in ourselves. You all can’t even come back to Africa because Africa is not ready for ya’ll. Most of you forgot your roots and stayed angry that they sold your forefathers out but somehow you still prefer it there.

Black people might no longer be in chains of a white man physically but somehow they still are mentally. We need to build our own so we can earn our own respect back. Put some respect in you as a black man, else we are always going to be 2nd choice.

Until black lives matters to black lives, nobody cares. I am good with my black people with a couple of white friends, but if they wouldn’t have me I wouldn’t either. #Bless

The Real Truth Behind Wrestling And Why It Is Fake

I have always been fascinated by the Wrestling sport since childhood. I remember watching the wrestling sport on TV when I was a child. Often times, we watch together as a family. Sometimes I watch it alone with my siblings. As I grow up I became even more fascinated and curious with this amazing and entertaining sport. Sure, I have my favorite wrestlers in male and female. On top of this; I also learnt some skills in wrestling (LOL). To date, the wrestling sits at the top of one of my favorite sports!

As my curiosity about the WWE grew so did my curiosity about the authenticity of wrestling grow! I began to wonder about all the punches, kicks and what have you… that is why today I decided to share with you the real truths about this amazing sport wrestling! I have the confidence you will learn one or two things from the information below.

The World Wrestling Entertainment is one of the worlds biggest and richest companies with millions and millions of fans all over the world. It is normally shortened as WWE and it’s a professional kind of game in the US that is meant to entertain fans all over the world.

This great company was founded in the year 1980 and on the 21st of February and The CEO Vince McMahon is one of the key founders of this entertainment company together with his wife Linda McMahon. As of the reports released in 2020, the company’s net worth still stands at $ 5.71 billion and still counting.

For many years, there have been speculations and questions rose as to whether the stunts done in some of the wrestling matches are real or just meant for entertainment purposes. Ever understood whether or not WWE is a fake sport or a real one? This is a question that many have been asking themselves for years and over the recent years, people are beginning to discover the truth for themselves with regard to how real wrestling is.

To answer and bring satisfaction to anyone reading this article and needs and an answer, then you should know That, WWE is an entertaining sport and there is nothing real about all the stunts that we get to see in the ring.

How do they get winners?

According to WWE rules and standards, it is founder and CEO Vince McMahon who gets to decide the person who wins any match. He works closely with the script writers who ensure that whatever he decides is the exact thing that happens in the ring

The agents also works very well to ensure the matches are properly fixed to ensure everything makes a lot of sense. Another thing you should know however is that despite the fact that the winner is known and it’s already in the script, nobody knows how the winner will win and that is why they are specially trained for that very purpose.

Are there any injuries during matches?

One question that most people probably ask is about injuries. We often get to see injuries sometimes in some matches and there is nothing fake about the injuries. Even though the wrestlers don’t intentionally hurt each other, accidents do happen and in some cases a knee may be broken or any other injury in any way.

Despite the fact that all things are scripted, there are times when things go out of hand and as a matter of fact the most memorable moments in history of the WWE are those moments that were not scripted. According to reports, most of the scripts in the WWE are written by Bryan Danielson together with other staff members in the writing team.

What of steel chairs?

Am sure you have seen those moments when an opponent had to be hit by a steel chair and you keep wondering whether it hurts. Anything that is steel like landing in your body will definitely hurt and that’s a fact. The wrestlers have however been trained to do it in a manner that the opponent will not be hurt. The only thing that was banned by Vince McMahon was using the steel chairs to hit the head because it would more often than not lead to serious concussions.

The fact that the matches are scripted does not out rightly mean they are totally fake, some of the stunts are real and the only difference is that the people involved have been well trained for that kind of thing.

You will find great enemies suddenly being kept in the same team for a match and all that is to show you that it’s a scripted thing.

Your Energy Is Your Responsibility

In my previous post, I shared some gems of wisdom from the amazing Sarah Prout and today here I bring you another inspiring post from Sarah Prout. It talks about Energy; when I finally came to grasp a complete understanding of the term Energy; I now agree that everything is Energy and your Energy is your responsibility. Read and found out for yourself!

It’s time to take your power back! In the hustle and bustle of our busy lives we cross paths with numerous energetic frequencies and vibrations that can potentially disturb our flow. Too often people hand over their power when they feel that they are being pushed out of their comfort zones – even for the smallest of things. For instance, if someone is being overly negative you might feel drained. People in the spiritual or personal growth space tend to get a little scared of negativity. Or if someone isn’t behaving in the way that you think they “should” you feel annoyed and irritated. This happens time and time again in relationships that need more compassion and understanding.

It’s in these moments that you must remind yourself that you have the power to guide your energy in the direction that will serve you.

Fear or love? Stillness or judgement? You get to choose.

This magical realization helps to move from the perception that life is happening to you instead of through you. There is a big difference. Do you see it? Life happens through you, as you are the creator of your own reality.

More than likely the energetic obstacles or upsets that get placed on your path (that you think are swaying your vibe) are actually Divine instruments to help you grow spiritually. The Universe LOVES to test the souls that put their hands up to dive into the spiritual lessons of expansion.

Energy management is like building up a muscle The more you consciously guide your awareness to take ownership and responsibility for your own energy, the more you will become a powerful manifestor. You’ll strengthen your capability to spend your energy wisely and understand that nothing can interfere with your energy without your consent.

So instead of blaming a person or situation for depleting your spiritual reserves, remember that you have a choice. You are the pilot of your soul plane and more than likely you’ll experience some turbulence, but the plane will still remain in the air.

The common mistake is to believe that external forces have the power to lower your vibration. When it’s actually the other way around. Think of it as an opportunity to raise your vibration when you are faced with less-than-desirable situations. You are being strengthened. As a manifestor, as a spiritual being, you are being given a blessing to WORK WITH, not against.

2 Things I LOVE About Korra Obidi

I knew about Korra Obidi when the news of her marriage failure with her American husband Justin Dean. Before then I did not know about Korra Obidi; what amazed me most is that Korra Obidi is from my state (Delta State). From there I knew also that Korra is a dancer and singer. In truth, I can say that Korra is a beautiful woman, a woman of substance and truly talented! Suffice to say that I am a huge fan of Korra Obidi as I am following her on all her social media.

Recently Korra wrote a children’s book titled The Last Seed of Odinani; so it means that Korra is also an author. Is this not laudable? Sure it is! As a an ardent follower of Korra Obidi; I have discovered some things about her and I want to share with you the things I have discovered about Korra Obidi—things that makes me LOVE Korra Obidi.

1. Korra Obidi is a Natural Woman. In today’s world, women (especially Nigerian/Black African women and Black American women) are now CRAZE after lightening their skin. Bleaching their skin has become the order of the day. The rate at which most women bleach their skin is very alarming and disappointing (even some are joining in this madness too). It begins to make one to wonder what happens to maintaining your natural skin color. I must also admit that I was once caught up in this madness of bleaching skin during my teenage years. But thanks to personal development and new knowledge that helped me stop towing that useless path of bleaching. There is nothing beautiful about bleaching your skin. I don’t want to start talking about the effects of bleaching skin. I am sure you know about them.

If you look Korra Obidi she maintains her original black skin color and that makes TRULY beautiful!! Honestly, men and women who bleach their skin are just engaging in some madness in practice. You cannot trade your originality for artificiality!! Korra Obidi is a role model to women (being divorced does not mean you are a bad person because I know many women and men are going to start pointing at the failed marriage of Korra Obidi).

2. Korra Obidi loves Buddha. When I started following Korra Obidi I noticed that she used the multiple hands of Kwan Yin as her profile picture in her Instagram page. Then again, I was watching Korra’s song Royal Lamba and I saw the picture of Buddha in the video. In my full transparency, I LOVE this song and it is actually one of my favorites as I always play it on repeat, sing along and dance along! LOL! In the video of Korra Obidi song; the Buddha’s picture is SO visible and close to Korra.

Now, the question is who does not love Buddha or Kwan Yin. If I am going to be honest; I will say that these two Light Beings (Guan Yin (also Kwan Yin) and Buddha are TRULY Light Beings worth loving as they embody wisdom, grace, enlightenment and compassion in its HIGHEST form! I follow the wisdom and teachings of Guan Yin and Buddha and trust me it has been life-changing for me. I actually have the pictures of Buddha and Kwan Yin in my room.

Another thing I love about Buddha and Guan Yin is that they are Universal Beings. They are accessible to anyone who is aligned with them. There are other Light Beings who do not make themselves accessible to everyone. They are only limited to a specific region, person/people. But in the case of Guan Yin and Buddha it is not like that!

I will round up this post by saying

Namo Guan Shi Yin Pusa

Namo Buddhaya
