Before I say anything further, I would like to apologise for not being active and not contributing (the little I can) to this community 😔.

There are lots of reasons for my being inactive or should I say "back sliding; chief of all being the fact that I am not very good at writing!. I did my introduction post and I got little upvotes and then my second post and I got even less upvotes and comments ( probably due to how horrible my writing skills are) and this discouraged me from posting anything at all! (I can't have people dying from reading my posts).
Secondly, I got very busy with my little business, trying to make it better and take it to the next level and all that... And I barely even had time for friends talk less of some "me time"!. SnapPic Collage_202079161836348.jpg

From the Bible and I quote "...man is inexcusable.." and standing on that already established protocol, I want to say I AM SORRY for going back on my promises made in my introduction post. https://hive.blog/hive-148441/@itsorlunma/3ppmeu-finally-made-it-here-again
I totally forgot that success is not achieved at once but it takes time, effort and perseverance (all of which I lacked) but I am promising to do better - to not only take from the community but also give back too.
I would really appreciate it if I am forgiven and taken back as a full member of the community again. Remember, the Bible also said "....to err is human, but to forgive is divine."

Speaking of my writing skills, well some would argue that "writers, teachers and poets are born and not made" and honestly I don't know how much truth that holds but I do know one thing, and that is " you can be anything you want if you put your mind to it" - (my mom).
So I may not be Chinua Achebe or Chimamanda when it comes to pen-ing down imaginations and feelings but I can put my mind into being like them or better still I can be me - Orlunma.

I am not promising my next post will be perfect.. nah...if anything it might be as horrible or even more horrible than this (because before one learns to fly, one must learn to crawl first) but one thing is guaranteed... YOU WON'T DIE FROM READING THEM! 😜 and I hope as family or should I say people with a common goal - I hope you all will show me some love and encourage me by upvoting and commenting; tell me what I could have done better and what-not so that I can gladly say I have completed the circle of " we learn everyday" today - even though my school is still under lock down from the pandemic. Thank you for stopping by and I look forward to your comments! ❤️
