Get that dust out!

Many years gone past, all covered in dust after dustMorning after morning thoughts of making change roll by almost immediatelyI shake the dust only when I'm in a holeSipping into corrosion, I still let it fadeI knew it had to changeAs trouble lurks in the dark, I cry outAs pain becomes intense, I screamAs snares come my way, I musterWhy at that moment? I knew it had to changeOuch! A slight cuff in the back of the head puts me on course!It should have been a part of lifeIt should have been a commitmentIt should have been a promiseI knew it had to changeNo expiration date in knowing youNo expiration date in loving youNo expiration date in dwelling in your presenceI Can't comprehend letting you...

The Genie in Mee

Ok, so i have some more to share from Dr Anthony's book. It is so good I can't resist sharing with you all :-)...Learning from past experience is important for developing total self-confidence. That is because we are able to recognize and resolve our mistakes the best way we can, and avoid repeating it. Also, total self-confidence can be built by releasing our unlimited potential through the power of our mind. The author asserts that there is a power within that can bring forth anything we picture. He calls it the Universal Mind or Creative Intelligence. He often refers to the creative intelligence as the “I AM”. When you think of how easy it is to talk to God he makes things clearer for...

"These are a few of my favorite things!" :-)

Driving to work I prayed to God not to put a slow driver in front of me that would make me sin. I curse all the time when someone is doing 15 on a 45, especially during rush hour. Oh yea, so God decided to bless me by not answering my prayer ☺It became clear to me that this happens to be one of my biggest pet peeve…I began to think about other peeves that I probably might have that really don't make sense, but yet gets me.I began to think about a lot of things, and why does it even bug me! Oh well, I realize I have a lot of things that irritate me, below are only a few of them I wanted to share. Maybe you feel my pain• Ok so procrastination crawls my skin.

Trust Vs Love

The other day after a lovely barbecue with a couple of my good friends, we embarked on one of many heated arguments on the hot topic- Love vs. Trust; the argument was once again everyone against one! Ok, maybe against two. Most times in our arguments, we try to separate the issues of love and trust in marriage and dating. Is it possible that it is perceived different in both cases? The argument or the discussion was that trust surpasses love in a romantic relationship. Majority of the group leaned towards love being the bases of every relationship, while the other one or two argued passionately that trust is the bases of every, and all relationship in order for it to succeed. Now, this is...

Your destiny in your control?

After many failed relationships, after many good relationships that you thought would and could never go wrong, the unthinkable breakup comes creeping back up in your blissful relationship. I thought deep once again; is there really a point to even date? Is there a point to have a boyfriend or a girlfriend? Most times I get fully engulfed thinking about all the “whys” and all the “ifs” I encountered in my relationships. Most times I end up putting blame in myself, and regretting why I didn’t succumb to the strain in my relationships just to make it work. Like many ladies, I always felt complete when I was in a relationship. I was among the fortunate once to say “yes, he spoilt me with gifts...
