This is my first time of getting your mail but it's worth the wait. Apart from being beautiful, I love that it is personal to a pulp.

The story about your mum makes me remember the last time I was in Northern Nigeria. I travelled with a dead man for almost two hours.

That moment, I was dead too, though not in heaven. Till date, I haven't been able to explain the feelings but I know loosing a loved one, especially in your teens is a bad shocker life shouldn't even throw at us.

Though the person was not my loved one, I couldn't help but think; what if it was any of my loved ones? Death is a mystery I am still not able yo comprehend at my modest age of two decades and more.

Thanks for putting your words down beautifully. May you find peace, love and succor, great writer.

I can't wait for the next one. Heck, that was too long a comment.

2020 has been unravelling and it's the perfect definition of we plan but Allah is the best of planners. I pray Allah forgives the shortcomings of your mom and grant her al-jannah fridaous.
