@kolawole_john Hello Kolawale. I hope you enjoy your read. You can also check out another series, The Teacher in the literary series category of the website.
Do you know what’s fascinating about the life of Jesus as recorded in the Holy Bible? Even without the messianic title (assume that you can set aside his divinity for a moment I mean), the human, non-religious persona of Jesus Christ would still be one of greatest, most progressive humans to ever live. It’s 2026 and no one could point to any of his acts/teachings that would violate today’s most progressive codes. For a man who lived 2000 years ago, in the darkest ages, isn’t that incredible?
Read through his teachings, with his words, he simplified the complexity of human existence through the teachings of tolerance, love and kindness towards others. His teachings about the purity and honesty of Children as what makes them the best of humans, and how we should aspire to be like them. How we shouldn’t force our message on others, that once they say NO, just walk away. Thats consent. Never preached nor encouraged violence.
Gender equality, alms giving and respect for constituted authority. He taught it all… Two Thousand and Twenty Six years ago.
When I was 9, I carried a secret shame. We were so poor that I often went to school with no food or snacks. At breaktime, while my classmates opened their lunches—apples, biscuits, sandwiches, I sat pretending I wasn’t hungry. I buried my face in a book, hiding the sound of my empty stomach. Inside, it hurt more than I can explain.
Then, one day, a girl noticed. Quietly, without making a fuss, she offered me half her lunch. I was embarrassed, but I accepted. The next day, she did it again. And again. Sometimes it was a roll, sometimes an apple, sometimes a piece of cake her mother bought for her. To me, it was a miracle. For the first time in a long time, I felt seen.
Then one day, she was gone. Her family moved to another state, and she never came back. Every day at recess, I’d glance at the door, hoping she would walk in and sit beside me with her smile and her sandwich. But she never did.
Still, I carried her kindness with me. It became part of who I was.
Years passed. I grew up. I thought of her often, but life went on.
Then, just yesterday, something happened that froze me in place. My young daughter came home from school and said:
“Dad, can you pack me two snacks tomorrow?”
“Two?” I asked. “You never finish one.”
She looked at me with the seriousness only a child can have:
“It’s for a boy in my class. He didn’t eat today. I gave him half of mine.”
I just stood there, goosebumps rising, time standing still. In her small act, I saw that girl from my childhood. The one who fed me when no one else noticed. Her kindness hadn’t disappeared—it had traveled through me, and now, through my daughter.
I stepped onto the balcony and looked at the sky, my eyes full of tears. All at once I felt my hunger, my shame, my gratitude, and my joy.
That girl may never remember me. She may not even know the difference she made. But I will never forget her. Because she taught me that even the smallest act of kindness can change a life.
And now, I know: as long as my daughter shares her bread with another child, kindness will live on.
Have a blessed week 🎊
Christian dominated states in the SW voted for the president. Don’t make it look like they were used to advance a religious cause against their own wish.
2023 Election in Nigeria was more or of a religion census .
4 major candidates, 3 are Muslims , yet the Christian came third.
Honestly those saying 50/50 are just being diplomatic as is more of 70/30.
How are you so tone deaf? You are peddling population stats not backed by census just when the country is extremely divided. Now answer those listing Christian dominated areas and tell them how you arrived at this conclusion.
Graceland International School, PortHarcourt just informed me that Agbo Adoga qualified to represent Nigeria in international Maths Olympiad in China.
Nigerian Ministry of Education said they don’t have money to sponsor anybody.
So he will not attend.
Nigeria lost again!
