Minister of Interior Affairs

I hope am not the only one on this...
I have always had a somewhat shattered mind that often leads to a shattered pattern of thoughts. I goes as bad that sometimes I don't control my thoughts in whatever way, a tiny piece of thought would have grown so huge and occupy a lot of space that I begin to wonder, "how did I get here?"
Listening to the preacher in church today and he mentioned that we have to put a bodyguard at the gate of your mind that helps you to screen thoughts that go in or tge ones that need to be stopped and thrown out...he said, "Be your own minister of Interior Affairs". Right there and then I made up my mind to become my own minister of Interior Affairs.
It is not an easy task, this I know for sure considering the number of times I had to trace back my footsteps just within 30 mins of my determination, but on God's grace I rest my hope of success.
To back this up...Phil 4:8(NKJV)..."Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true,whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are just,whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, if there be any praise, think on these things"

Pros and Cons of Living Alone

So at the ripe age of 26, I was forced… lool not forced parse but nudged, to get my own personal apartment I.e to live on my own. I had always envisioned this moment to be a rite of passage, like my family would one day gather around in wrappers with lit candles and drums for the official moving out ceremony, but to my disappointment, it was nothing like that. Although to be fair, I was partially living on my own as I lived apart from my family with other people, so I guess I didn’t qualify for the ceremony.

It was late afternoon, the harsh scorch from the sun was fading, the cool evening breeze had begun its daily night shift. A small group of little humans; consisting of five or six children with age ranging from 7 to 9; emerge running from a three-storey building. They ran towards the tarred road adjacent to their building stopping a few metres away from the road, at the designated structure which was a shed made of aluminium roofing sheets and four wooden poles. This endeavour has been a daily ritual for these set of children, it had become more than what it was set out to be, right now, with the amount of attention, dedication and tenacity poured into it, it was much more than a game. Occasionally, some adults would entertain themselves by joining the group and taking the acting role of both spectators and judges, but today there were no spectators and or judges. They lined themselves side by side as each child prepared to verbally take possession of passing cars that he or she d
