Arise, oh Giant!

Arise, oh Giant! Earlier this year, I watched a Korean movie titled "2Weeks". I love Korean action, crime, or horror movie. I will give an overview of the movie and what stood out for me. There's a man called Tae-San who became a slave to Moon Il-Seok because he doesn't know his identity neither does he know what he was capable of doing. On two occasions, he was jailed for an offence he knew nothing about. The second time he received a jail sentence, he cut ties with his fiancee who was pregnant at the moment. For a long time, he lived for Moon Il-Seok, he couldn't dare fight for his freedom. One day, his fiancee met with him. This was because he is the only one who could save their daughter who has leukemia and needs bone marrow transplant. Realizing that he is a match for the daughter he never knew he had became a turning point in his life. Learning that he is the savior gave him a sense of identity and he started to fight for his freedom. It was a ...

Come Back Home

One of the things I do in my leisure is take a walk on the street o Instagram. Lol. While I was scrolling through the reels, a particular excerpt from Aps. Iren's message caught my attention. Here's the summary: he said "God called every creature forth in their respective habitat by speaking to their source. One reason the creatures can't survive once they're taken away from their source." He further said that: "When man was to be created, God spoke to Himself; meaning man's source is God. The moment you take God out of man's life, He's nothing but a living dead (Adam and Eve can attests to that)." This reminded me of the experience I had sometimes ago. I was having a very tough time which made me conclude that God cannot be trusted. Funny, right? I felt, if truly He's God why did He subject me to hardship and pains. As a result, I decided to journey away from Him like the prodigal son. The foolish decision I've ever m...

UNFORGIVENESS: A SUBTLE POISON

"How can she say that to me in public?" I asked myself in disbelief as I knelt beside my bed, bitting my lower lip in the process. Yes, I just returned from a meeting where I had a conversation with someone I respected. Just as you have imagined, it did not end well. If she had reached out to me, privately, I would have respected her so much. But with this, she has lost the respect I have for her. "No! No! There's no way I'm ever going to allow this slide." I muttered to myself as I fight back the tears gathering in my eyes. Tears? No way! I'm not going to cry over this. Never! But, it hurts! A lot! Nevertheless, I'm not gonna cry. ............................................ Some weeks ago, I had a one on one conversation with someone I so much respect. While conversing, she said something that got to me so badly. The fact that I couldn't respond as I want to makes it more painful. Gradually, I began to hurt as unforgiveness begin t...
