One blog post at a time.

Through the tears, the prayers, and the long sad nights, something has to give.

Life can feel like walking for miles in a desert under a harsh sun

I’ve been blogging for nine years. Here are my reflections on nine years of blogging, writing, self discovery, and finding my voice.

What is love to you? This is a collaborative post with opinions and views from others on what love means to them.

I’m Mariam — writer, explorer, observer of life’s quiet and loud moments. I started this blog in March 2017 as a self-discovery space, and over the past eight years, it has grown into a home for everything that moves me and hopefully, something that moves you too. Here, you will find poetry, reflections, travel stories, lifestyle pieces, motivation, inspiration and Lagos restaurant reviews all written with honesty and heart. Enjoy!
