If I live long enough to attain the age where Nature sees fit to bless age with deep wisdom and unimaginable vigor, I shall put to paper, and account as a witness of the unfolding of the stories of the Castroes.
So help me God.
I am a proud father of two adorable daughters- Widaad and Naqiyya and a proud husband of two beautiful women- Suweiba and Salma. I happened to be the only male in my very young family even though, I'm the lord of the family.
May we live happily forever as a family.
My daughter who will turn 2 on the 28th of this month was sent to her maternal grandma on Friday to spend the weekend. An announcement was made yesterday in the evening concerning two missing children from the household of my in-laws. My heart kicked at my rips on hearing thenews
Until now, I lived my life completely misunderstanding the concept of growth. I used to think that, it meant increasing one's achievement every moment; not knowing it was being comfortable with what one has. I've now realized my growth.
The stark reality is that I don't have much- I'm therefore in need most times. But one obvious thing is that no one ever does it all. We all do our part and give way for others to do theirs too.
I therefore resolve not to over stress myself this year.
Happy new-year to all.
We aught to know when to be grateful so we do not deprive ourselves of the next blessings Allah Almighty may send our way.
The next generation of the Jiraso Family is fast taking shape.
Alhamdullilah.
I used to wonder why most people couldn't replicate the goodness shown them and the goodwill others had for them until I was in the position to replicate others' goodness and goodwill. No one will ever know a soul more than it does itself. Sometimes one wishes to but can just do.
I really was ungrateful to my dad when I felt he should have handed me everything I asked for from him. I had failed completely to understand how much love my father had for me while he was alive. I've been a father for only 10 months. This short period has been so revealing.
The blessings every couple asks God for; three gentle giants. We're not only three but fourteen giants. Ten males and four females. I can imagine your felicitations and secret prayers;- "I wish this happens to me too".
Once it's your time you become a demon of restless energy. Nothing, absolutely nothing stops you from becoming what you were built to become. Congratulations my man and welcome to the new world.
I've all these days of my life been hopeful of a better Ghana. But happenings recently have forcefully bent the arc of my hope for a better Ghana more towards despair than towards anything similar to hope.
Ghana's economy is in the ICU. Forever on life support. God save Ghana.
Some people are built for some tasks. How possible is it for a man to live in the house of another man like women do in men's houses; pay no bills, put no food on the table and always yell at you for coming home late?
Man though was born free I wonder why he's everywhere in chains. Much as I agree that life would be so chaotic without leadership, I strongly believe that life's even worse with leadership that thinks about its own wellbeing than that of those who happen to be their followers.
