So many things you've said to me that seems to make a whole lot of sense now. As i reflect, it all seems like yesterday, when you sat next to me. Hmmm! Your motherly fragrance! How can I forget?......It never fails to register its unique presence. Your kind words! Your exceptional gesture! Your ever giving heart! How can I forget!? On the eve of my wedding, you gave me your precious ornament and asked me to guard it with jealousy. You said it was a precious gift, handed down to you by your mother, my grandmother.

  WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WORKED ON YOUR BLOG? Written by E PLUS The Storyteller. At the beginning of this year, I had a direction to be more deliberate about my choices. As far as I know, E PLUS The Storyteller is culminating into a brand beyond the box. Indeed, I'm grateful for humble beginnings, and pray to remain humble, because I'm aware that HUMILITY IS THE HALL MARK OF GREATNESS! So, I have been reflecting on so many things, one of which is E PLUS The Storyteller Blog( ejiroemenikeuka.blogspot.com ).   In as much as I write for other blogs(and get paid), I realise that it's pretty easy to stray away from one's base, and just focus on one direction.

And this brings me to the question, as a blogger who writes for other blogs, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WORKED ON YOUR PERSONAL BLOG? ...
