Mother's Day/ Mothering Day





Mother's Day is  traditionally a celebration to observe and celebrate mums, grandmothers,stepmothers with flowers, breakfast in bed, gifts and cards. It is a way of celebrating motherhood, maternal nature and influence in the society. It is celebrated on various days in different part of the world.

Mothers are inestimable jewels,angels sent from heaven to bless the earth. Mothers go through a lot to sustain the world. A mum passes through 9 months of pregnancy, labour pangs and pain. Also raising a child can be so challenging; still mothers stand firm and ensure that children get the best in life. Mothers have an endless list of job description which qualifies them for any profession.
A mother watches over her children, nourish and protect them.

Every woman is a mother,wheter they have children or not, God has deposited mothering qualities in every woman honestly. God in his infinite mercy will bless every woman looking unto Him for the fruit of the womb.

K. Nelson Davis says ''A mother possesses incredible wisdom and wonderful insight and skill. In each human heart is that one special corner which only a mother can fill''.
Happy mother's day!!!!

Professor Niyi Osundare@ 70





Professor Niyi Osundare is 70 years today! A great icon and prolific poet.Professor Niyi Osundare was born in 1947 in Ikere Ekiti,Ekiti State, Nigeria.He is a dramatist and critic.
He gained degrees at the University of Ibadan and University of Leeds. He is a professor of English and taught in several universities.

The first time I heard of Professor Niyi Osundare was in 1993 during my college days at SACOED Oyo.I read one of his poems titled  'The Eye of the Earth'.This is a poem about the reality and connection between  individuals and their environment. Whenever we read this poem, I usually experienced a nostalgic feeling.I then had the opportunity of being taught by this great legend when I furthered my education at the Premier university, he taught me Stylistics.Infact I felt on top of the world.I even have his autograph on my then English note till date.
Professor Niyi Osundare,I wish you a happy birthday Sir. May you live to celebrate many successful years!
