Tomorrow is Wednesday, the 9th of the month or Muharram. We are encouraged to fast the 9th and 10th day of Muharram. Fasting on this day expiates the sins of the preceding year.
Fast if you are able to, if not earn reward by reminding others.
Remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers (Q51:55).
Baarakallahu Feekum.
Looking at the beginning of my life, the odds were not just stacked against me, they were arranged deliberately, like a wall someone built and walked away from. The neighbourhood, the resources, the circumstances, none of it was designed with my survival in mind. If not for the gift of intelligence, I am not even supposed to make it this far. And I mean that literally, not as a figure of speech.
That is why I keep looking back. Not because I miss the past, not because the past was kind to me, but because forgetting where you came from is the first step toward being dragged back there. The forces that were stacked against me from birth did not retire when I started making progress. They are patient. They recalibrate. They wait.
I think about this in terms of matter. I am like a molecule working against cohesive force, the kind of invisible pressure that keeps everything in its original state, in its original place. To move from solid to liquid requires energy. To move from liquid to gas requires more. And plasma, that fourth state that most people never even think about, that requires conditions so extreme that the average environment cannot sustain it.
Each level of transformation demands that you generate enough activation energy to break what is holding you. There is no shortcut. The physics does not negotiate.
This is why I cannot rest in the way people mean when they tell you to rest. I can pause. I can breathe. But I cannot stop generating heat, because the moment the energy drops below the threshold, the system reverts. That is not pessimism. That is thermodynamics.
Poverty is still in my rearview mirror. I can see his head clearly, not far enough to dismiss, close enough to remind me. Some people are lucky enough to outrun it so completely that they forget what it looks like. I have not been given that luxury, and I have made peace with the fact that maybe I never will be. But there is something clarifying about a chase. It tells you exactly how fast you need to move.
I am not running in fear. I am running with memory, and that is a different thing entirely.
HR: We lost the new hire today.
CEO: What happened?
HR: He resigned after his first week.
CEO: That makes no sense. We doubled his previous salary.
HR: Yes, but salary was not the issue.
CEO: Then what was?
HR: You asked him why he left at exactly 5:00 p.m. And why he left the office before you did.
CEO: I was just trying to understand his mindset.
HR: He understood it clearly. He felt the company was not paying for his work, but for control over his time.
CEO: But commitment matters.
HR: So do boundaries. He finished his work, met expectations, and left on time. But instead of that being seen as professionalism, it was treated like a lack of loyalty.
CEO: People should not rush out of the office.
HR: He was not rushing out. He was simply leaving when the workday ended.
CEO: Did he at least have another job lined up?
HR: I asked him that before he left.
CEO: And?
HR: He said no. No backup job. No offer waiting for him.
CEO: That’s serious. Leaving without a backup in this economy?
HR: Exactly. If employees are willing to leave your workplace without another job secured, that’s not confidence. That’s a red flag.
CEO: You think it was that bad?
HR: Bad enough that unemployment felt safer than staying.
CEO: That is unfortunate.
HR: Yes. We offered him double the salary, but also gave him a preview of a workplace where leaving on time becomes a character issue.
CEO: So what are you saying?
HR: A higher salary can attract people. But if respect for time is missing, eventually even no salary feels worth staying for.
It may look small, but it means a lot to me when I flashback
There was a time shawarma and pizza felt like something meant for the rich.
We’d walk past the spot, just looking from afar… and keep going.
Today, I bought item 7 shawarma for myself and for four of my friends, with drinks comfortably. things that once felt like luxury to me, are now things we can afford without thinking twice. 😢🙏🏾
Alhamdulillah for growth.
Alhamdulillah for provision.
Alhamdulillah for how far I’ve come 🤲🏽

TODAY WAS ONCE YOUR FUTURE
I said jokingly to a friend who was a landlord in Atan Ota, when I was a tenant in Ojodu, that he started life where he is supposed to end it. He was the chairman of the estate among retirees.
What's the point suffering while you're young because you want to enjoy when you are old? I understand the principle of delayed gratification but there has to be an inflection point.
On the way to where you are going, enjoy where you are to the fullest. Buy that dress, do the hair, buy the car, rent in that posh estate and furnish it to taste until that time God says you'd build your own in the same place or somewhere even better. I was pressured to buying an acre of land in Oko Afo, Badagry with the first 200K I made in life. Till today, I can't tell where the land is. Even if I locate it today, i wouldn't need it for anything. It would have been better if I had spent that money on roasted turkey and Chamdor and it'd have shown on my skin because I was actually suffering and hungry at that time.
Do that charity, be kind towards others, show love, be part of every good cause, everything noble, focus on the beautiful things that makes you happy. Life is ephemeral, nobody is assured of tomorrow.
