MY OPEN DAIRY 11: LAGBAJA NOTHING FOR YOU!

LAGBAJA NOTHING FOR YOU😂
Over the course of the lockdown i got to spend a little more time with the cutie in these pictures, and i have learnt a lot from her and sometimes she reminds me of stories from my childhood.

Let me share one with you,
90’s kids and older people will remember Lagbaja the masked musician he had so many hit songs and is no doubt a legend, all with out showing his face. 

At that time when he was still actively making music, my dad had this friend who used to come and visit us , his name is Mr Badejo, he was one of those friends that got special treatment, you know the ones special plates are brought out for😂 this man was so funny and had such a presence, he laughed so loud and heartily too and he constantly made jokes what you will call the life of the party! Everyone in my family loved him❤️
Being the youngest they always liked to mess with me and in this case they told me he was Lagbaja the face behind the mask. 
Dear friends and family i believed them!
He always sang this line from one of the songs by Labaja to me, he would sing “Baby anything for me and my reponse would be Lagbaja nothing for you😂”  
Of cause now i know better! I remembered this story because every time i step out of the house, Ella would always ask Aunty Rhoda where are you going? and i will say “to see the queen” when i get back she would proceed to ask questions about the queen and of cause i would have my replies ready, recently someone was going out and i heard her asking them if they were going to see the Queen😂. 

Now i see why we should have the heart of a child they are not too wise in thier own eyes and they find it so easy to believe people older than they are, this might be seen as foolishness but imagine if we believed God the same way they believe us then the possibilities would be endless. 

I don’t know about you but i am learning to trust not in my wisdom but in the promises of God that never fail, though they might not seem realistic to my human mind, though things might not look good right now,  but i know that his promises are sure, and his word never fails.

    A story about trust couldn't have been written any better than this Rhoda well done. We keep failing to trust God because his promises seem unrealistic, unimaginable & untainable by us. Yeah! That's why he is God and we are his children! God can be trusted!

    This just reminded of a few days ago when my sister was thinking of the different stories She'll tell her children and how they'll react when they find out the truth later on 😹 😹 😹

Transmission system Transmission System Transmission system is used in motor vehicles to supply the output of the internal combustion engine to the drive wheels. The transmission reduces the higher engine speed to the slower wheel speed, increasing torque in the process.

It is a mechanical device that transfers all power from the engine into the transmission of a vehicle. Without a properly operating clutch, power transfer and gear shifting would be very difficult.

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA(SOUL MATE)

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA The Spanish word for soul mate stands for "alma gemela". You know, I've always wondered. It has always had me bothered. That question. Simple as it may sound, it is a question that has troubled my mind relentlessly. How many soul mates do we get in a lifetime?  Have you ever met someone and out of the blue, y'all connect and a bond is forged? You spend moments together and moments turn into hours, hours into days, days into weeks and weeks into months and months into years, years into more years, you get the picture. Everything is fine is the beginning and then the misunderstandings begin and then you start to see how different y'all really are and then your three hours of calls become three minutes of awkwardness with so many words in your minds but none of them said. You then start to wonder, "was this really my soulmate or did I get it all wrong?" Are we even meant to be together? Eventually, you start to let eac
