Dear Adéọlá-mi,
I keep wondering
Did you say ‘Yes’ to me or to my persistence?The fact that I stayed true to the moments
Of toasting, wooing, and waiting for your response
Never leaving your ears and DM, never relenting
Showing that I was bent on having you in my life
Did you say ‘Yes’ to me or to my proposal?
Those touching melancholic words I said to you
The promises of Love I made, the sheer confidence
How I proved I will be the Christ to your church
The romantic atmosphere, the depth of poetry
Did you say ‘Yes’ to me or to my specifications?
Those beautiful qualities that make me up
The character that you’ve seen me show
How I handle situations calmly and intelligently
The values for love, family, truth, and justice
Did you say ‘yes’ to me or to my dreams?
The beautiful picture of the future I painted
The amazing prospects that my life presents
The plans that I’ve shared with you
The same that I’m working so hard to birth
Dear Adéọlá-mi,
I’m not being paranoid here,
It’s just my curiosity at play
And I want to know
Did you say “yes” to these things
My efforts and tenacity
In combination or in isolation
Or did you have your own Love
All along, for me, with you?
I am the ImisiOluwa; Or am I being paranoid here?

There are conversations that are well beyond the boundaries of ‘pen on paper’. Some heartfelt and straight-up words that provide context to concepts. That’s what this podcast is about. Here are my musings on Love, Life, and Faith as I probe human thoughts and thoughts around these themes. Sometimes, I’m right. Sometimes, I way out of line. And at other times, I’m just as clueless. Trust me, It’s going to be a funny, yet insightful, and inspiring ride. Buckle your seat belts.
Ever heard of that song that says it is impossible for a butterfly to extinguish a barbecue fire? Well, that’s a true saying, but…..
There are truly impossible things, but only within given contexts. Seasons change, miracles happen, content changes, change happens, discoveries are made, and what seems to be impossible becomes possible.
