Tribute To My Dad On His 15th Death Anniversary Bt Kingsmith Akinwale

06-06-2010. 15years. Just wow! 

If there's anyone or thing worthy of breaking my silence it is nothing other than the 15th death anniversary of the man many attributed my writing skills to.


My Dad; The Incredible Writer! 


It's been 15 years since you left us, dad. No doubt, your legacy lives on through the countless lives you touched with your kindness, wisdom and brilliance. Today, we  honor the life and legacy of my beloved father on the 15th anniversary of his passing. His dedication to family, friends, and community was a hallmark of his remarkable life.


With unwavering commitment, he served those around him, offering guidance, support, and love without condition. His wisdom, gained through experience and insight, was shared generously, helping shape the lives of those fortunate enough to know him.


His brilliance shone brightly, illuminating the paths of others and inspiring them to reach their full potential. Through his selflessness, kindness, and generosity, he left an indelible mark on our lives and the lives of countless others.


As a father, he was a pillar of strength, providing love, care, and nurturing that shaped our values and character. His legacy continues to inspire us to live with purpose, compassion, and integrity.


Though he may no longer be with us physically, his spirit lives on through the memories we cherish, the lessons he taught, and the love he shared. We remember his laughter, his smile, and his unwavering optimism.


As we reflect on his life, we're reminded of the profound impact one person can have on others. His dedication to service, his wisdom, and his brilliance continue to inspire and motivate us.


We honor his memory by striving to emulate his values, continuing his work, and spreading love, kindness, and compassion to those around us. Rest in peace, Dad. Your legacy will forever be etched in our hearts.


You will forever be honored, dad. 

Your dearest "Omi akopon",

LETTER TO MY WIFE ON OUR 8TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY By Kingsmith Akinwale

LETTER TO MY WIFE ON OUR 8TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY!

My Dearest Duchess, 

Eight years. Yes, Eight 'goddam' years baby. 

It feels like a lifetime, yet it also feels like yesterday when we took that leap of faith, promising each other a future filled with love and hope. Looking back on everything we’ve shared, I can’t help but marvel at the incredible journey we’ve had together. From the quiet moments to the loud, joyous chaos of family life, every chapter of our story has been more beautiful than I ever could have imagined.



When I think of what we’ve built, I think of our children—our little miracles who remind me every day of the love that started it all. Watching you become a mother, seeing the way you nurture and guide our kids with such tenderness and strength, fills me with an indescribable sense of pride and awe. Our family, our little world, is everything to me, and it’s all because of you—the love you give, the sacrifices you’ve made, and the endless joy you bring to our lives.

When we started out, we had dreams, yes, but we didn’t know exactly how they would unfold. What we lacked in material things, we made up for in hope, determination, and faith in each other. Now, as I look at where we are today, I can’t help but marvel at how far we’ve come. From humble beginnings, we’ve truly moved from grass to grace. Every step, every hardship, every victory has been worth it, and the beauty of our life together is a testament to our strength and resilience. 

The other day, we counted the years right from the first anniversary of our meeting in 2014, it has been nothing but progress. And here's 2024 that is no different. Oh wow! 

But more than just the past, I think of the future—of all the untold chapters waiting to be written, all the dreams still yet to come true. I see us growing even stronger, continuing to rise together, hand in hand, through whatever life brings our way. I know that the best is still ahead of us, and I am filled with excitement for the years to come. The future we will build, the places we’ll go, and the memories we’ll create—it all seems so bright when I imagine it with you by my side.



On this special day, our 8th anniversary, I want to thank you. Thank you for being my partner, my love, my best friend, and the incredible mother of our children. Thank you for believing in us, for never giving up, and for loving me with all your heart. I am beyond blessed to walk through life with you.

Here’s to all the years we've had, and all the beautiful ones yet to come.

Forever and always,

Your Duke, 

Kingsmith Akinwale Snr.

Be A Seed By Kingsmith Akinwale

#MondayMorningMotivation.

Every seed in the farmer’s hand has great potential to produce bountifully and to multiply endlessly.

But to unlock this potential, the farmer must release the seed from his hand, drop it in dirt, cover it in darkness and leave it to struggle to reach the light.
