This year’s #NobelPrize laureate Anne Carson was born in 1950 in Toronto, Canada. In 1981, she published her doctoral thesis in Classics entitled ‘Odi et Amo Ergo Sum’, and has, throughout her entire career, combined poetry writing with translation work and teaching at various universities.
Almost all her literary production has centred upon the intersection between the philologist’s obsession with words and the poet’s desire for new meaning. She has herself identified the etymology of words as the starting point for all her work.

Few minutes before a person breathes their last, something happens that we rarely talk about.
A Christian doctor wrote a book based on his many years of experience caring for people who were transitioning from this life. He shared that when some Christians were approaching death, they were remarkably calm, peaceful, and even smiling. Some became visibly excited.
He shared the story of an elderly Christian woman who had battled asthma for many years. On her final day in the hospital, she told the doctor, “Jesus said He is coming for me today, at this time.”
And exactly at that time, she passed away—smiling.
The doctor also shared how God used him to lead some people to Christ just minutes before they transitioned.
But one story deeply shocked me.
A woman was rushed into the emergency room, and the doctors were desperately trying to save her life. At one point, her heart started beating again, but she suddenly shouted, “Fire! Fire! Help!”
Then she died again.
They managed to revive her three times, but unfortunately, they could not save her.
The doctor desperately wanted to save both her life and her soul, but he couldn't.
Then he shared the story of a Chinese man whom he tried to lead to Christ. The doctor knew the man did not have much time left, so he approached him and offered him the free gift of salvation.
The man refused.
A few hours later, something strange happened.
The sick man suddenly began fighting as though he was doing karate in the hospital ward. 😳😂
He was fighting unseen beings. Nobody could hold him. He was knocking things down and fighting with a strength that seemed impossible for someone who was so sick.
Where did that strength come from?
The doctor believed he was witnessing a spiritual battle—that the man was seeing something in the spiritual realm that those around him could not see.
Eventually, the man died.
He died a tired man for sure. 😅
Why am I writing this?
Because one day, you and I will breathe our last.
Your world will shut down right in front of you.
The question is: What will your experience be?
Will you be peaceful, calm and full of joy?
Or will you be fighting for your life?
The greatest question is not how much money you have, how successful you become, how many followers you have, or what people think about you.
Where will you spend eternity?
The Bible says, “It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.” — Hebrews 9:27
Whoever you have chosen to serve in this life matters.
If you belong to Jesus, you have the hope of eternal life with Him.
But if you reject Him, you are rejecting the only One who can save your soul.
Friends, life is spiritual. Heaven is real. Hell is real. Jesus is real. Eternity is real.
You can make your choice now.
Don't wait until your final breath.
Choose Jesus while you still have the opportunity.
Mbele ni kubaya sana bila Yesu.
Share this with someone. You might help someone make the most important decision of their life.
“A lot of people might be confused by this video. I just want to use this video to tell you that Jesus is real. There’s nothing He can not do. Do not wait to have a problem before acknowledging Him.”
— Nollywood actor, Femi Branch profess Jesus is Lord.
I love it when people that once accuse you recant their statement. People are seeing the light 😍
They know how to play big games.
They know how to play small games.
They know how to get scrappy wins.
They know how to beat teams comfortably.
They can win 1-0 today, win 5-1 the next game.
They know how to play dirty(we all love when it’s us and hate it when it’s against us).
This is what separates Arsenal from every other Club in the World.

I'm extremely inept at this but close mouths don't get fed.
I'm writing a novella titled TO YOUR NORTH ARE THE ALMIGHTY’S BASTARDS. I want to get published by any reputable small press.
