What Love Has Got To Do With It

If love were just a feeling, we'd all be in serious trouble. Imagine if "Love your neighbor as yourself" simply meant "feel some affection toward them"—so long as you feel warm and fuzzy, mission accomplished! 🎯

But hold up—does that mean I can watch my starving neighbor suffer, as long as I have affectionate thoughts about him? "Aww, poor guy. I hope he gets food soon!" Then I walk past, munching on my suya. 🤦🏽‍♂️

See the problem? If love is just an emotion, it is unreliable, inconsistent, and outright dangerous.

Let’s get one thing straight—Christians are still human.

We still eat 🍔, sleep 😴, go to work 💼, and pay bills 💸 (unfortunately). Like everyone else, we age 🧓, stub our toes 🦶, and sometimes even forget why we walked into a room 🤔.

But don’t let these superficial similarities fool you.

You’re at a coffee shop. Or a family BBQ. Or trapped at a church potluck you can’t politely escape.

A friend leans in. Their voice drops by exactly three decibels. Their eyes scan the room like they’re checking for surveillance cameras. Then they say the five most dangerous words in the English language:

“I probably shouldn’t tell you this, but…”

It begins on a Tuesday.

Not a dramatic Tuesday. Not a high-stakes Tuesday. Just a regular, fluorescent-lit Tuesday where the coffee tastes slightly burnt and everyone is pretending to work while actually checking messages.

You’re standing near the printer. Or the coffee machine. Or sitting in a meeting that could have been an email.

Someone leans in.

It's honestly a shame how much people hate reading.

And no, this is not a "book snob" rant. This is a reality check.

We live in a time where information is cheap, accessible, and literally begging to be consumed—yet people avoid reading like it's a communicable disease. The tragedy is not ignorance; it's chosen ignorance.

Building FasCraft: My Journey Creating a FastAPI Project Generator CLI Tool

The Problem That Started It All

As a developer who has worked on numerous FastAPI projects, I noticed a frustrating pattern: teams spending significant time setting up project structure and boilerplate code instead of focusing on business logic. Every new project meant:

  • Manually creating the same folder structure
  • Setting up database configurations
  • Configuring environment variables
  • Writing boilerplate models, schemas, and services
  • Setting up testing frameworks
  • Configuring CI/CD pipelines

This repetitive setup was eating into development time and often led to inconsistent project structures across teams.

Picture, if you will, a planet called Earth. A place where everyone — from your mama to your mechanic — is on the same holy mission: to collect your money. They may smile while doing it. They may even cook you jollof first. But trust me, everybody wants a slice of your financial meat pie. Even the devil himself has a budget line with your name on it.

💵 Money, dear reader, is not evil. It is the amplifier of life’s comfort. With it, NEPA light suddenly becomes less epileptic, your fridge hums like a lullaby, and you can buy suya without checking your wallet first. Without it? Ah. Welcome to the land of postponed dreams, hot sun, and unsolicited motivational quotes from people who own generators.

🎙 “Imagine, if you will, a perfectly good product… strangled by bureaucracy. A brilliant idea… slowly dismembered by 20 competing opinions. A system design so fragmented, it mirrors a boardroom seating chart. You’ve just crossed over into... Development Hell.” 🌀

🧠 Ever wonder why some tech products feel like they were designed by a game of telephone? Why no two parts quite fit together, and the codebase looks like it’s speaking in tongues?
