So, sometimes you have a skill or a talent, something you can actually do well. As it’s yours, you don’t really see that it is a gifting. I’m lucky, I am surrounded by incredibly good people. So good, sometimes I almost cry when I think how blessed I am to know them. Operative word, almost. People like my daddy and sister, Anita, always encouraged me to write more. They read everything I wrote. Others, have become family by virtue of the goodness of their hearts, the memories we’ve shared….or simply because I love them. Oto, NNamdi, Yewande, Tijani, Andie, Ann and others, they made me write even when I thought I had no stories to tell.

I am grateful.
