Every creature on this planet — every animal, every insect, every microscopic life — moves with an effortless intelligence.
They don’t need advice. They don’t need gurus. They don’t need a manual.
A lion knows when to eat.
A bird knows when to rest.
A fish knows how to swim.
Even the smallest organism knows exactly what to do to stay alive.
But the human being — the only animal that believes it has risen above nature — is confused about everything nature already perfected.
People now need others to tell them what to eat and when to eat.
If you can’t even recognize your own hunger, what exactly do you know?
If someone else has to tell you when to eat, you’re already walking dead.
And look at breathing…
The body breathes effortlessly, perfectly, without your permission.
Only when you interfere does it need your attention.
Yet somehow people now think they must be taught how to breathe.
And then sex — the most ancient intelligence in the body, the very reason anyone exists — now needs instructions too.
All of this began the moment we forgot we are animals.
The moment we believed we were something separate from nature, every illusion began.
But here’s the beautiful thing:
You can return.
You can choose nature again.
My family and I are doing exactly that.
We’ve put our house up for sale. I’m selling one of my two farms in Nigeria — the big one on forty one acres — and even my uncompleted house. Why? Because we are going off grid. We are returning home to the wild.
Not running away from the world — just stepping back into our nature.
We still want the city close by.
We want our kids to experience both worlds:
the honesty of nature and the convenience of civilization.
So that when they grow older, they can choose whichever path calls to them — freely, without illusion.
This decision isn’t about rejecting society.
It’s about remembering what every living being already knows without thinking:
When to eat.
How to breathe.
How to sleep.
How to move.
How to live.
How to love.
How to be.
Nature doesn’t confuse you.
The mind does.
And when you forget you’re an animal, you lose your instincts — the ancient intelligence that has guided life for millions of years.
So for us, this move off-grid is not a trend.
It’s not aesthetics.
It’s a return.
A return to the Earth that raised every creature before humans invented their illusions.
We are choosing a life where our bodies, our senses, our instincts come alive again. Where our children can see both realities clearly — the natural and the artificial — without being trapped by either.
And ultimately, this is the point:
The moment you forget you’re an animal, every other illusion begins.
The moment you remember, every illusion ends.
We are remembering.
And we’re choosing to live close enough to the wild that our nature stays awake…
and close enough to the city that the kids can pick their future with open eyes.
That balance is freedom.
That balance is life.
Now people need guidance on how to eat, how to sleep, how to breathe, how to live, and even how to have sex.
Nothing is wrong with learning — but it becomes madness when you need someone else to explain what nature already encoded in you.
This is what happens when you disconnect from your nature:
You lose the most basic wisdom every other creature is born with.
A dog doesn’t doubt its hunger.
A bird doesn’t doubt its breath.
A lion doesn’t ask for instructions on mating.
A fish doesn’t question its instincts.
Even bacteria trust themselves more than most humans trust their own bodies.
Only humans stand apart, pretending to be something superior while being lost in their own illusions.
And here is the key:
The moment you forget you’re an animal, every other illusion begins.
You stop trusting your senses.
You stop trusting your instincts.
You stop trusting your hunger, your breath, your body, your emotions, your movement, your sexuality — all the natural intelligence flowing through you.
Then you become dependent.
Dependent on rules, on opinions, on external voices telling you how to exist.
But your nature has never left you.
It’s still there.
It’s still alive.
It still knows.
Return to that.
Return to your breath.
Return to your hunger.
Return to your instincts.
Return to your body’s ancient intelligence.
Return to the simple truth:
You are an animal — and that is not an insult. It is your freedom.
Everything begins the moment you remember that.
