- Some years back, when I had just joined college, my lecturer made me believe that as a journalist, I should have a nose for news; very fast to smell it from far, pick it from one end and take it to the other.
- What he did not tell me was that I should let the smell find its way to my nose instead of poking my nose everywhere looking for something to smell even when there is absolutely no smell!
Something must have interfered with my sense of smell because at some point, my nose started meandering towards things that was none of my business. One day, I poked my nose in some business only to end up dipping it in sulphuric acid! That marked the end of people’s businesses and I. I read somewhere that men are more likely to be overwhelmed by stress than women. Unlike women, men mostly keep to themselves and avoid sharing any problem they could be encountering, be it marital, financial or even spiritual.
