When I met 23, it was a phase of uncertainty in my life. I remembered the fateful day, it was nothing spectacular. Just my younger brother and I, home alone, and bored. He is my day one soldier. The only person that knows me in and out, after Jesus. Having him around on a day like that, for support is significant. I can’t ignore the fact that we are different, and sometimes it takes a lot to get his demotivating ass up. But he is the only one I have. We hit some wack blunt. I sent a lot of thank you-s on WhatsApp and Twitter, yeah I had a lot of wishes.
When alone, I did a lot of reflection. The type that mostly comes around on birthdays - the anxious thought. Does my age commemorate what I’ve achieved? I looked at my mates, the ones I knew. It’s easy to form opinions from that angle but thank God I didn’t dwell on it too much. But it was always there. 22 didn’t offer me much peaceful solace at all. I learnt , fought, to prove to people who had real interest in my life that I am worthy. My family.Life was fair when I met 21. I guess the only thing on my mind then, was how to get booze for the boys. My mind was crazy for a bit. I had only my girl, then, for comfort. I can be like that sometimes. Since I attended theirs, they should mine, right?

Usually when this day comes we reflect on what we have done, over a year. 365 days of the year, seems like a lot. The important thing is to rectify the mistakes and move forward.
Happy Birthday @darkcarnage
