Did I really taste the 'Forbidden Fruit' as alleged 34 years ago?


Did I really taste the 'Forbidden Fruit' as alleged 34 years ago?


By May Olusola
Have the old scars in your life completely healed? Still healing, or far from healing? Do you see yourself getting worked up when the thought of a particular incident rears its obnoxious head?
The truth is, unless you take action, there will always be a negative or positive reaction. Many times, it is therapeutic to delve into the archives of your life and excavate one or more torturous experiences for the purpose of re-examination and permanent closure. This is why, after more than 34 years, I am riding back to my high school days to open an incredible can of stinky worms.
In Form 4 (high school), I was the treasurer of my school’s Literary and Debating Society.  Our annual party was held on a Saturday, and it was a huge success. I was scheduled to meet with the president, vice president, and secretary of the Literary and Debating Society the following Sunday to go over finances and other matters. It was supposed to be a brief meeting. A popular student, Gabriel E., was the president. Akindele was most likely the vice president, or the third guy, whose name and face I cannot recall.  They were all senior male students.

Shanghai and Beijing: My tale of two beautiful cities



Going back to Shanghai in 2015, was my opportunity to resume what time robbed me of previously accomplishing. With my younger sister Uyi and cousin Uwa, joining me for their first visit to China, I knew it was going to be a fabulous trip. This time around, Beijing, the capital city of China was part of the itinerary. Up until the hour of our departures from the US and Canada (where my sister lives), we couldn’t contain our excitement. Upon arrival in Shanghai, we were like kids entering an amusement park of wonders. We couldn’t wait to discover and explore China to the best of our ability.

Oil tycoon’s daughter June Hunt gives the hopeless hope




You would expect the daughter of H.L. Hunt, the late oil tycoon and one of the wealthiest people in the world at the time of his death in 1974, to act a certain way, to move in expected circles, and to maintain an intimidating aura that can shake even the bravest of hearts. This is not the case with June Hunt, the 12th of 14 Hunt children. Witty, charming, kindhearted, and extremely down to earth, her presence exudes peace–not the kind that comes from the world, but the one from the Word of God that surpasses all understanding Read more at: Oil tycoon’s daughter June Hunt gives the hopeless hope

Dear Teenager, Your choices matter


We can’t keep sitting back and doing nothing to save our teens! We as parents have an obligation to do right by them and give them the tools that they need to do well in life. It’s our job to teach them everything that they need to know so that they won’t get caught up. It starts at home! We can’t afford to be lazy when it comes to parenting our children. We need to parent like it really matters… Because it does! They need us y’all. It’s time to step it up so that they will have a fair chance. Set good examples for them to follow! Trust me, they are watching you more than you think. Be parents that they can be proud of and speak highly of. Set them up to go in the right direction! - See more at:
