Somehow, I needed to read this and I am thankful that you wrote this. I'm anxious about a lot of things but I've been choosing to trust God instead. I'll come out at the other end of it in one piece. Thank you, Hauwa

Beautiful piece.

The title has made me think about some uncertainties but like you said, we are going to take off, face turbulence and come out the other side.

This was a really great read.

A well beautiful written story. Just this morning I could not help but feel sad about my life. But I am trusting my journey in God's hands. Thank you for this. It means a lot

You just took me on a journey Hauwa, this is so beautifully written and we lagos people, are more intimate with oblivion than is generally acknowledged.

Every night there are discontinuities in ourexistence during dreamless sleep. Moreover, we forget things every day, so in a sense, we are constantly dissolving

into nothingness. The city however, finds a way to keep us pleasantly distracted.

As I lie here, on my hospital bed, recovering from a horrible car accident that left me with 2 broken legs and other injuries, undergone surgeries, I just read your letter from the airport. And I think you were sent to me Hauwa. I was...I am...I can't put my thoughts down cos I don't have the words. But, thank you Hauwa. Thank you.

This was carefully put together and as funny as it may sound, it was kind of emotional for me to read. You use all your emotion ingredients left for 2023 on this write up. Thank you Hauwa! It was a much needed read!
