Went to the J. Randle Museum last weekend and honestly, it surprised me.
I didn’t expect it to feel so calm and grounding, it’s not even that big but there’s this quiet energy about the place.
The sculptures, the Yoruba stories, the way everything’s displayed it just makes you slow down a bit. You start noticing the little things like the shapes, the textures, the history sitting right in front of you.
I took a few pictures, mostly just to remember how it felt being there. I think what stood out most was how connected I felt to the culture, even in small ways. It reminded me that sometimes, exploring your own city can feel like traveling too

"sometimes exploring your own city can feel like traveling too" — such an important takeaway that I hope no one sleeps on. This is the key to broadening your horizons at home for real. It doesn't always require an expensive plane ticket elsewhere to get the contrast therapy you need to see the world differently. Welll said.
