"you can aim forever, but the arrow only flies when you let go" is probably the best sentence I've read in a while

so many books to read, instruments to learn, languages to speak, poems to write, countries to visit, songs to sing, movies to watch, people to meet, pictures to take, food to taste, places to see, sunsets to watch, stories to hear, stories to tell, things to create, hobbies to discover, dreams to chase, love to give, memories to make, lessons to learn, and a whole life to live.
I’m not Yoruba, however, I’m part of the conservative side of this conversation.
I think the shift is mainly a reaction to what many people (non-Yoruba inclsive) now see as an attempt to hijack Lagos politics and gradually de-Yorubanise its identity, especially when said people rally behind a candidate whose has shown contempt for the Yorubas.
Then you hear talks like “Lagos is a no man’s land” rhetoric, while their accommodating nature and hospitality is treated as a weakness.
At some point, people will naturally become more protective of their identity, culture and political space.
2022/2023:
Yoruba Liberals on X - 95%
Yoruba Conservatives on X - 5%
2025/2026:
Yoruba Liberals on X - 10%
Yoruba Conservatives on X - 90%
My hands are shaking now as I type this. HOW DID WE GET HERE?? Is this related to global politics? Or because Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the best candidate on the ballot in 2023 is President? Please explain to me like I am 7 years old 😳🤔😳.

I honestly don’t know how far this post will go, but I need to try.
I have ₦600,000 left to pay from a ₦1.8m debt that came from a business deal that went badly. I’ve already paid ₦1.2m, sold properties and sacrificed almost everything valuable I had to get to this point.
The ₦600k is due by Saturday, and my house rent is also due soon. I’m trying to raise about ₦1m to clear the debt, sort out my rent and get back on my feet.
I’m not asking anyone to give me ₦1m.
I’m asking you to patronize our business.
We deal in iPhones, laptops, UK-used gadgets, brand-new phones, active & non-active devices, game consoles, speakers and accessories.
For the next few days, I’m crashing our prices and forfeiting a large part of my profit to raise the money I need.
You will hardly find these offers anywhere else. Give me a chance to prove it.
📍 15, Adepele Street, Computer Village, Ikeja, Lagos.
Come into the store, inspect and test whatever you want before payment. We also deliver nationwide.
I’ll be posting the available gadgets and prices. If you need an iPhone, laptop, PS5, speaker, smartwatch, charger or any gadget, please consider buying from us.
And if you don’t need anything, please repost.
You may not be able to give me money, but your repost could put this in front of someone who needs what I sell.
I’m not looking for a handout.
I’m asking for an opportunity to sell.
Please patronize us.
Please refer someone.
Please repost.
Give me a chance to work my way out of this.
Thank you. 🙏
Thank you @official_shoday for being welcoming to work on set for the most trending video in the country rn 🥵😍

It’s so crazy to me how a nigga could come from nothing, work so hard and turn his life around, his whole trajectory. Like look at zlatan’s child bro, proper burti pikin driving in a lambo to school while his dad probably never entered a car to school
