Salt and Living Chioma Wari-Toby

A poem celebrating my parents’ love for each other.

When things do not go as planned, still your spirit. Do not let external winds cause a storm inside, for one cannot draw straight lines with curved rulers.

Like the steering wheel, your thoughts control your life. Take charge of your thoughts, you’re the driver, be in control, chart your course.

We cannot reap what we haven’t sown. Are you sowing seeds for the life you want? Nothing significant happens by chance.

Have you ever had a failed bake or cooked up a disaster? Listen and share your experiences with me!

Allowing jealousy to fester will only make you a bitter, negative person, sucking light and life out of you and those around you. Embrace good today, even if she chooses your neighbour’s door before yours. Love and fried plantain xx
