Nice... I like your write up, especially the beginning and the ending parts . It is easily relatable. More ink to your pen.

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement - I'll definitely keep the ink flowing!

Picture this: You're stuck in Lagos traffic, horns blaring, danfo drivers swerving, and you're late for your meeting. You're thinking, "What's the point of all this? Why am I even here?" Well, my friend, great minds have a purpose while others have a wish. And if you don't find your purpose, you'll end up like a yam without salt - bland and unfulfilling.

So, let's talk about purpose. It's like finding your jollof rice in a sea of plain white rice. It's not easy, but when you do find it, it's oh-so-satisfying. Start by asking yourself, "What am I passionate about? What makes me feel alive?" If the answer is "jollof rice," well, that's a good start, but let's dig deeper.

Next, find a mentor or coach who can help guide you towards your purpose. Think of them like your own personal Obi-Wan Kenobi, helping you navigate the ups and downs of life like a boss. And if you're feeling really lost, try a little Nigerian-style juju. Bust out your cowrie shells or consult your babalawo and see what the spirits have to say.

Finally, engage in activities that promote self-discovery and personal growth. Maybe it's taking a dance class, learning a new language, or travelling to a new place. You never know what you'll discover about yourself when you step out of your comfort zone.

Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, but what does purpose have to do with mental health?" Well, as Rodello's Machine sings in "The World Inside":

"Where there's purpose, there's no fear The road ahead is always clear Find your path, it's not too late The world inside is what we make"

Having a sense of purpose is like having a secret weapon against mental health issues. It's like having an extra plate of eba and soup when you're feeling down - it's comforting and it nourishes your soul. So don't be afraid to unleash your inner warrior and discover your purpose. Who knows? You might just find the missing piece to your jigsaw puzzle of life.

We don reach last bus-stop.
