Daddy’s Legacy
Some days are easier. Today has been so difficult. But somehow, I feel as if you sent Mawuli to make it more bearable. He did a good job.
Digital Money
“So the bottom-line of my long educational rant is that cryptocurrency makes encrypted transactions that are safe, fast, with new age technology. The worrying disadvantages are the volatility of the value of the coin, and the fact that no government backs it.”
Defying The Rules
There is an interesting workplace culture in Ghana. Everyone and their sister has a work husband or work wife!
Daily Grind
“Oh, and keep in mind that here, the client is always right. No matter what! Our customer service is top priority, and so you need to learn how to work it out. Don’t worry, it’s one of the first things anyone learns here.”

Dear Diary
Mama laughed when I told her I was going to therapy. Kuuku asked why. Kojo just shrugged. I wonder what Ol’man would have said. In that moment, I missed him so much, I felt actual physical pain in my chest!
Discerning Comrades
My world of beautiful vibrant color was suddenly a big drab black and white, and I didn’t know how to fix it!
The Debacle of Family
I can’t do it anymore. I cannot be strong enough for me and for her. And if fear she can’t do it either! Is there a widow’s advocate somewhere out there? Help us!
Drowning
They say grief comes in waves. Mine didn’t. It only poured. It was drowning me, and I could not swim!
