Yet in the midst of this hardship, GoatContinue reading “💛 The Goat, the Tortoise, and the Measure of a Man”

There is a saying among our people: when an old woman falls twice, she pauses to recount her goods. ❤️ It is a reminder that repeated setbacks call for honest reflection.

🌹 The Pain of Beauty and Society’s Silence ❤️
There was a song I listened to when I was younger. The lyrics said: “Ama m na mma bu okwu, chineke m oo! ewo!, Amaghi na mma bu okwu…”(I didn’t know that being beautiful is a crime.)
