journaluo your journey

The word mundane captures the ordinary. The day-to-day things na-eme na our lives, the "etetere ụra, saa ahụ, rie nni, etc". Mana in between this ordinariness, n'ime this mundane life anyị ncha na-ebi, the extraordinary occurrences that make each person's existence find themselves intricately woven.

I know na ọ biaziri dị ka mụ a na-asụ oké oyibo na post taata. Mana, it is necessary for ihe m chọrọ imetụ aka which is journaling. Moreover, anybody ga-agunwu Igbo, ga-agunwu oyibo ọbụna twice.

What I'm saying really bụ na all life, your life, dị worth documenting. Your journey, your story, dị worth chronologing. Ị kwesịrị inwe record of the things that make up your life as it is today maka na echi everything ga-adị different. Things ọ ga-abụ inee anya back to, icheta mgbe 5k bụrụ gị nnukwu ego, ma ọbụ oge ị hammer your first one million. Ị kwesịrị idetu these intricate events that add the colours and beauty to your life's story. Everything i na-aga through right now dị worth recording. If not for others, if not for money, for yourself. Ndị mmadụ na-asị na abacha ọsọ a gụọ mile, make your own literal.

You could be swarming in how you have failed or disappointed yourself. You could be lounging in pleasure. Or sniggering foolishly to a lover's lies texted to you. Whatever it is, put it together, put it down. Keep for yourself (or whomever it may concern) something to look back on. All these things that matter today may not matter tomorrow. The You na-aga through them today will certainly not be the You a ga-enwe tomorrow and even when you decide to tell the story tomorrow, it will come from a different place. So dee ya taa. Journal it. Write your journey today, today.
