    Rekindling Relationships

    Life can be long or short depending on how you view it. Too many times we leave things unsaid secretly hoping for a chance to someday make your case, share a kiss, or get in that fire ass comeback you just thought of that would have been fitting maybe 13 months ago. Some of us are shockingly great at detachment while some of us replay conversations from three years ago constantly. Regardless of where you stand, I think we can all appreciate a chance at a do over. This episode is centered on friendship but the themes are relevant across most relationship types. For those who have been with me on my podcasting journey (I'm talking Abstract Culture, soundcloud and uni days), this one might hit a little different. Enjoy and share with a friend.

Assimilation was a huge part of my teenage years as I was grappling with learning a new culture while holding onto the one I had grown up on. Nine years later, I am this weird hybrid of a proper Igbo guy mixed with a very Texan state of mind.
