Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Monday, July 06, 2009. Is it disloyal to ones partner to wonder if one would have ended up with him or her had facebook and other social networking sites existed 5, 7, or 10 years ago? The reason for such silly thoughts is the fact that I've been meeting up with old friends, principally from my Naija uni days in the last few days. I suddenly find myself meeting with old crushes and toasters. I am nursing a scientific curiousity. I still can't help but wonder, what if? Eastern and Neo-...

Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Wednesday, June 13, 2012. Back to the basics. I have been away from blogging for a while. I know that's quite an understatement. Lemme share this funny story with you my readers before I end this post i think it depicts the Nigerian obsession with marriage. So I just had a baby, and my aunt came to visit from Nigeria. She met one of my friends, an American Lady. American woman: how old are your children. Aunty: 26, 24 and 20. American woman: oh, so they are already very manageable.

Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Sunday, August 23, 2009. New trend in Democracy. The opposition candidate alleges fraud(see Here. In the recent Afghan elections. This recent spate of fraud allegations after elections, and subsequent innovative solutions as seen in Kenya and Zimbabwe is leading to a dangerous trend, that in my opinion prevents one from knowing when fraud has actually been perpetuated, and when it is just a case of trying to get your share of the cake by shouting loudest. If I come up with plausible a...

Arin's Odyssey: Questions worth pondering/ words to live by
http://arins-odyssey.blogspot.com/2014/01/questions-worth-pondering-words-to-live.html
Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Sunday, January 12, 2014. Questions worth pondering/ words to live by. No seriously, do. No one knows tomorrow. The last few months have had some shocking high profile accidents and deaths like the terrible accident that killed Paul walker and his friend and the accident of Michael Schumacher. These incidents show us that death is no repecter of persons, it might be anyone's turn tomorrow. Us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts. Vanity of vanities, says. A man cannot utte...

Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Friday, November 13, 2009. We like to think that we are unique. But really, we aren't all that special. We are prone to doing the same things as many others. It might be due to the last vestiges of the 'survival' programming in our DNAs, where the chances of survival are higher in a herd. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Arin's Odyssey 2.0. Wednesday, February 04, 2009. If it is God’s will……. I am a Christian, and believe in God’s will. I have seen seemingly impossible situations turned around, because I believe it was God’s will, and I truly believe that with God nothing shall be impossible. In many cases where one has already done ones best God’s will is usually what makes the difference. And this is a man who expects blind obedience to his wishes from members of his own family o.
