Why does our Easter Vigil Mass have to be so late in the evening?       As we draw closer to Easter, I want to speak of the Easter Vigil Mass in the life of the Church while also addressing the question of why it starts at the scheduled time of 9:30 pm (and not earlier).      In the liturgical year, it is the Sacred Triduum that stands as the high point of the entire liturgical year as the Triduum commemorates the Lord Jesus’ passion, death, and resurrection. For it is in these mysteries that Christ accomplishes His redeeming work of freeing us from sin and gifting us with a share in His eternal kingdom. This “triduum” contains the three separated, but deeply connected moments of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday evening, the Celebration of the Passion of the Lord on Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil in the Holy Night after dark on Holy Saturday. In fact, these three moments are so intimately connected that they are kept as one liturgy (and hence this is why the

(pic credit: Pinterest) Previously If the clueless young man we had met earlier at the reception was by her side, it only meant she wasn't a client like the rest of us, I analyzed as I watched her engrossed in a discussion with the man She should be the director's secretary or personal assistant. Since he had fled, they probably brought her in to confuse us. As a home boy, I didn't need anyone to reveal what her daily job schedule would look like. My anger resurfaced. These people are funny, so they think throwing their coquettish  secretary at us would make us back down?  Whoever gave them that notion should be psychologically evaluated . So you think she is sexy?  That voice in my head queried again.  Even a blind man would testify to that,  I justified while trying to resist the urge to stare at her. " Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen ." Her voice suited her frame, I thought absent mindedly; " Let me start by apologizing fo

Click on   Surprise  H e ushered us into a magnificent conference room with various high back, black swivel chairs surrounding a long, tempered glass rectangular table.  A single white executive leather swivel chair  at the head of the table caught my attention. All the lights came on automatically the moment we stepped in. This must be where Andrew Mark, the CEO of Mark & Sable (M&S) made landmark decisions with his revered board I thought as my excitement mounted.  M&S was the only indigenous software company making waves globally and Andrew was the brain behind one of the most sort after video games topping the local and international markets. The man was my icon and I had tried severally but failed to get a chance to share my ideas with him on ways to upgrade their softwares which was why I was p ushing for this campaign. If gathering online reviews and getting frustrated users to actually show up and physically express

(Pic credit: Shutterstock) I saw her the moment we matched into the company's reception. Her rich laughter struck a chord as she exchanged call cards with a young man whose jacket could hardly conceal his properly toned muscles.  What caught my attention was her graceful figure and the elegant crisscross-back bodycon knee length purple dress which clung to her slim but shapely figure and hid nothing from an active imagination like mine. Since her back was turned towards the entrance door and me, my eyes slid further down to the glittering slim anklet adorning her ankle and the glamorous transparent heeled sandals encasing her feet. She looked alluring but odd in that formal setting. My head buzzed; Mehn, you are engaged to a beautiful woman!! Abuja girls are never what they seem...Danger zone, keep off!! I dragged my eyes off her and tried to locate the receptionist. The boring marble counter across the lobby suddenly became appealing as I led my team towards the yo

The race for greener pastures commenced several months after most of the lawyers at the firm resigned almost at the same period due to several reasons that could easily be fixed but was neglected. The workload increased with their exit but the allowances were caste on stone despite several heavy briefs and alerts we were privy to. When I saw the Email inviting me for an interview, I was both surprised and relieved. I took no chances and my hard work paid off when I came out tops. That was last month and since then nothing was heard from them until that day. The next day, around 8 am, I called Kelvin; our head of chambers to inform him of my good fortune. He was happy for me and had no objections provided I got back to my desk before noon.

As usual, it was not noon yet but my day was already very hectic and all I could think of was my hurting feet which was made worse by the anxiety of appearing alone against a senior. Ten missed calls from Kelvin. I rolled my eyes as I flipped my phone off. Why was he calling severally? He wan practice his new position as head of chamber with me abi? This guy had no chill! I thought as I made my way to the elevator. It was no  fault of mine that the court was flooded by Senior Advocates which meant all the Juniors in court would have to wait until they were all heard. I had felt like I was lucky simply because the counsel on the other side was a senior.
