While Dada drank away his dignity and cursed the very children he helped bring into the world, Mama was building something solid—something lasting. She rose before dawn, tied her wrapper tight, and poured herself into the earth of her cocoa farm and the dyes of her Adirè cloth.

A writer is not defined by talent, ease, or praise—but by persistence. You are a writer because you show up, even when the words don't. You are a writer because you choose to keep going, even when rejection stings and the page remains stubbornly blank.
