I’d like to make myself believe….that planet earth..turns..slowly.

Owl City — Fireflies.

What did I learn in 2021?

I learnt how to live with the pandemic, a global stench of panic over one’s life.

I learnt patience and the parable of the snake, biden its time to make its feast.

I learnt kindness and how one single act can create a butterfly. 🦋

I learnt what it meant to be truly successful..or as I like to call it — XXXXXX

I learnt how easy it is to outsource some choices to fate and will it to be.

I learnt how to fail.

I learnt how to grow a company.

I learnt the worth of an ape and a story.

I learnt the value of money and what N500 means to the average Nigerian.

I learnt the value of my time and who I choose to spend it with.

I learnt about love and how we sometimes speak our own love language instead of listening for our partner’s.

I learnt the meaning of Defi and how web3 and decentralization will quite literally change the world.

I learnt attention and its deficits, on dealing and feeling, on learning and relearning.

I learnt of betrayal and its piercing scream.

I learnt the art of not having a take — of letting the crowd pass over you.

Like Moses in the old testa-ment.

But this time, instead of the angel of death.

It is the demon of distraction.

I learnt the essence of friendship and how to take a step back to breathe.

Most importantly, I learnt.

Happiness resides in an arcade — Rufus and Bees, Dec 2021
