On Life, Living and God

A Collection of Prosaic and Poetic Reflections

Author:

Modupe Akinola

ABOUT THE BOOK

Life is a cocktail of experiences; some we love and cherish, others we detest. Likewise, living is a cacophony of beautiful and memorable as well as hurtful and subverting moments – or strings of moments. And ultimately, these moments and experiences aggregate to determine who we become. Is that fair? Who even designed life so?

 

Like many people, the author had many questions about this thing called “life,” the continuum of experiences called “living,” and the big God. Her questions led her on a lifelong quest for answers, documenting her musings as she journeys on. These findings are what she has detailed in this book, having travelled some significant miles in her voyage.

 

This book is for everyone who has questions about life, living and God. It covers different perspectives on different aspects of life as viewed through the author’s lenses and told in proses and poems.
