SCARED OF SCARS


Scarifying involves imprinting designs, pictures or words into the skin to create a permanent modification of such flesh. Principally, scars are the aftermath of injuries- they could also serve for identification. In such instances, they are called marks e.g. the tribal marks of a Yoruba man would let you know his state of origin as well as the country he hails from (e.g. Nigeria).
Frankly, no one wants to be physically scarred, not to talk of emotional scarification- which is indeed one of the most common menaces in the world today…so many people have been hurt, and have carried the pains of being hurt for too long.
Truthfully, I could tell you that getting into the “once bitten, twice shy” mode is beneficial, but I know it doesn’t bring out the best in people.

So, why don’t you sit back, and let God remove those scarified layers of your heart?

WANNABE INTERN

Week 2 Message to the Pre-Intern: don’t lose hope! Week 2, for me, was 2 months post-induction. This was when the wait began to sink in. You mean I’ve been home for two whole months? By now, I was literally chewing on my fingernails. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t scared of getting a space, but I certainly wasn’t confident about any place anymore. That is when I began to write this book. Today is the 12th of September and I sit at the dining table in my parents’ house, typing at 11:27pm (because well, I have an editing job to finish up, but mostly because I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow morning). If I don’t want to, I don’t even have to take a bath tomorrow morning because well, I can stay indoors all day! (I most likely will stay indoors, except for those few minutes when I step out to buy hot akara for my akamu). I am spent. You know, I have applied to a couple of places now. Let me start with the first: LS Health Service Commission At the State Health servic...

SALIENT LESSONS FROM THE CORONARY ARTERIES The coronary arteries provide blood supply to the heart, the blood pump. Some of its duties are outlined and deductions are saliently made from them. 1.       REPLENISHMENT: The first lesson to take from the coronary artery is that it replenishes the heart. While performing the work of pumping blood to other tissues, the cardiac muscle is replenished by means of its 2 coronary arteries. 2.       DIRECTLY SOURCED: The coronary arteries, unsurprisingly, take origin from the aorta, the main artery leaving the left ventricle, carrying oxygenated blood to all branch arteries of the human body. Thus, it originates from the principal source of maximally oxygenated blood; this points to the fact that it reveres impartation and not opinions. 3.       PERFUSION: The coronary arteries ensure that blood gets to every part of the heart by means of its several branches. Branc...
