What’s a simple pleasure in life that brings you joy?
In a world of constant digital noise, true luxury is found in the quiet act of reading. For many like me, the ultimate simple pleasure is opening a book or comic to read and discovering new words that haven’t been heard of before. It’s like a form of modern treasure hunting where language is the currency.
Reading doesn’t only bring me joy learning new words but by also diving into a world that’s a totally different world from yours, it gives me a chance to escape reality. Examples of books I read are mostly fictional (thrillers, Mystery, crime) and documentary stories.
Some of my favorite books I’ve read
Dead Aim by Iris Johansen
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
Gifted Hands the Ben Carson Story
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
The lion and the Jewel by Woke Soyinka
Words I have collected so far from this week * Logolepsy: A fascination with words that turns reading into a hunt.
* Asinine means extremely foolish, unintelligent, or ridiculously silly.
* Prerogative is an exclusive or special right, power, or privilege granted to a person, group, or official body.
* Ineffable: A feeling too intense to be described in words.
* Tsundoku: The art of letting unread books pile up at home.
Reading isn’t just about finishing a list; it’s about that joyful moment of escaping reality, learning new things and thinking, “I’m glad I know that now”. Tell me in the comments what were your favorite books you’ve read and are reading.
The underrated person in history, black history I know of is Ruby Bridge. While Ruby Bridges is a widely recognized figure in American history, particularly in the context of the Civil Rights Movement, she isn’t still given the recognition she deserves. Why I say so is because:
– Most history classes often reduce her to a brief Black History Month topic, overshadowing her deep impact on national integration.
– Most of the time, many people tend to forget that she’s a living activist and not from a distant era.
– Society frequently overlooks the immense mental courage required by a six-year-old child to face daily, weaponized racial hostility.
For me she’s like one of the underrated people in history. Who do you think is the most underrated, let me know in the comment section.
“None of our kids come into the world racist. And so, if they can learn to be racist, they can learn not to be.”……Ruby Bridge.
My favorite type of food to eat is beans, I love eating beans, any kind of beans, any way you cook it I’ll eat it, I just love beans. Maybe because I was told if you eat beans you’ll grow taller 😂
“You smell very nice/ you smell good” this statement gives me hope and butterflies in my stomach, Just hearing it makes me so happy because it’s like a confidence booster.

When I think about how the Year is coming to an end I feel a chill run down my spine. I remember it just being the beginning of the year and now it is almost over.
With how the year have been I hope 2024 would be different, things happened this year, there was Joy, Chaos, Laughter and Pain but I am sorry..we are still standing only by the grace of God.
Yesterday was Christmas but it didn’t feel like it, everything just feel strange but we got to keep on pushing strong I just hope and pray for next year would be a little bit better.
I feel like I’m just pouring down my feelings here, might delete this later just felt like writing down what I feel since I have no one to tell them to…..
Hey guys it’s me (@-@), I have this stuff that really boarders me which is in don’t really know anything about the royals of England.
Who are the Late Queens Grandchildren that she have from Prince Charles , how many did she have because I have been hearing about Prince Harry and I am like “Who’s that?”, cause I know only of Prince Williams.
So I did my research and found out that she had two Grandchildren from her son the king, prince Williams and Prince Harry or should I say just Harry. I said just Harry cause I found out he dropped his title of being a prince to be with his wife Meghan.
This shocked me so I wanted to know more about The Prince Harry because I wanna know more, they say curiosity kills the cat but hay I’m not a cat so I am going in, Let’s Begin.
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex (Henry Charles Albert David) born on the 15th of September 1984 is a member of the British royal family. He is the younger son of King Charles III and his first wife, Diana, Princess of Wales. He is fifth in the line of succession to the British throne.
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex
In 2018, Harry was made Duke of Sussex prior to his wedding to American actress Meghan Markle. They have two children, Archie and Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor. In January 2020, the couple stepped down as senior members of the royal family and moved to the Duchess’s native Southern California.
In October 2020, they launched Archewell Inc., an American public organisation that focuses on non-profit activities and creative media ventures. Together with his wife, Harry also sat down for a much published interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, with whom he also produced the mental health documentary series “The Me You Can’t See”.
He and his wife also filmed the documentary series Harry & Meghan, released in December 2022. Harry’s memoir Spare was published by Penguin Random House in 2023.
While they are no longer working members of the royal family, Prince Harry and the former Meghan Markle still hold the royal titles of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, which were bestowed upon them when they married in 2018.
Harry opened up about why he and his wife continue to use their Sussex titles in a recent “60 Minutes” interview in the lead-up to the release of his new memoir, “Spare.”
When Harry and Meghan stepped down from their royal duties in early 2020, they were not stripped of their duke and duchess titles, and the royal family’s website still refers to the couple as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
They also still hold the titles of Earl and Countess of Dumbarton and Baron and Baroness Kilkeel, according to their biographies on the official royal family website.
They did, however, stop using HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) honorifics, as they are “no longer working members of the Royal Family,” Buckingham Palace said in a January 2020 statement.
That said, the line of succession has not changed, and Harry remains fifth in line to the British throne.
The duke and duchess’s children, Archie and Lilibet, meanwhile, have been given the last name of Mountbatten-Windsor. As the grandchildren of a ruling monarch, Archie and Lilibet are also entitled to style themselves as prince and princess, though it is unknown whether they will ever actually use these titles.
So we are gonna start up from why they did what they did. So Prince Harry revealed some dirty secrets about the Royal family which was connected to why he dropped his post(partially because he is still the duke).
He believes that his family has brought him pain to him and his wife. It was noticable that the Royal family were not happy with his decision to marry his wife.
In the year 2018 Meghan (Harry’s wife)had a miscarriage, she was devastated with both the pain of loosing her child and feeling unwelcomed in her husband home. It was even stated that she even tried to commit suicide….. yikes.
Well with the stuff that happened I think that when the settled to drop their post and move to California. That’s a good thing to live away from the drama brought by the Royal family and the media, funny thing they did the actual opposite they came out to the media that they were running from, ain’t that funny well who am I to judge it’s their lives.
I have learnt so much about Prince Harry and the Royalty on Britain and I hope you did so too.See you guys later and stay tune……love you all.
And don’t forget to comment your thoughts about the Royal family and Prince Harry.
And I wish y’all a Happy New year again, love your pretty blogger dumebi 😊🫂
I am a breeze, rustling through the Autumn leaves. Crisp clean air that revitalizes the land. I am a ray of sunshine, blanketing the Earth with my warmth. Providing the light for all life. I am the rain, washing the dust of the day away. Breathing new life into everything I touch. I am a […]
