I'm Tired!!!

Last night,I hardly could sleep!.I tossed uncountably on my bed from one end to the other.It was a very chilly night,so cold that my duvet felt like cotton cloth.I hugged my fat pillows so tightly like an unseen hand was about to snatch it away from me.All of a sudden I realized how lonely I felt.It dawned on me more than ever before how much I need to get married and have my own kids.

Sincerely,I do not want to come across to you as desperate or make you begin to think that age must be pursuing me out of this world.The truth is that,there comes a time in a woman's life that she begins to desire companionship and the need for a man to connect with.Those times that you need to talk to someone about destiny issues in the wee hours of the morning,those times that your hands are too full and it is only the one who is trusted and loved that can lend you a helping hand ,those times when you need to come back home into loving arms.There just comes that kind of time in a woman's life and I am believing in a man's life too.

One thing I don't want to live my life doing is regretting!.Beyond existing,I want to live and not just any kind of life but a life that will leave a lasting impression on whomever  I come across.I don't just want to be a wayfarer,God forbid bad thing my brother.My sister,tufiakwa!!!.The funny thing is that there are many guys out there seeking for just not women but wives and with all humility I have come across some of them too who have genuine and noble intentions,but you see,marriage is more than having genuine and noble intentions.It is more like two souls MUTUALLY agreeing to accept each others shortcomings and complement one another.It should never be one-sided.It is about two people and they must more than anything else agree.

It seems to me like our generation is misplacing priorities as far as marriage is concerned.More and more men are afraid of the institution of marriage and more and more women prefer to be baby mamas than wives!.I do not want to blame anybody given the high rate of divorce trailing what once looked like the sweetest of marriages.However,I'd rather be a wife and then a mother!.Believe me,I am tired of being single.As much as I know I am getting married soonest,it suddenly seems like I prefer it now than the soonest.Dear Lord,fastforward it.If you are in the spirit,shout a big Amen o!!!

The Empowered woman

I think being a woman,I mean a real woman is one of the hardest things ever!. You won't agree with this only if you are not a woman,but if you are a woman,then congratulations to you.You are a mysterious being but then again this congratulation goes to the 'real woman'. The real woman is that person that makes everything difficult seem easy.She is a hard worker,faithful friend and partner,a good manager,a home maker,a lover,a confidant,a mother,a sister,a daughter,a visioneer...Someone,may say,"Yea, ok...I'm not a mother or I'm single and so does that make me not a real woman?Of course not!. Age,class,status,beauty or achievements do not define a real woman,but character does. I can't but wonder at the stories we hear these days about women.I marvel at the rate of evil perpetuated by women in our society.Prostitution is old wives tale but when women are involved in armed robbery,kidnappings,terrorism,gang rape,adultery,fraud to mention a few,then by a...

How can we share love in a world void of love?

As each day passes,I see that so many people do not understand what sharing love is all about.Just last night,I saw a man,not a boy.I mean a full fledged man beating up a lady just by the roadside as if she were some common thief.On inquiry,I discovered she was his girlfriend.Did I hear you say,what?!!!.mhnnn...the feeling is mutual,but come to think of it,he may have had a reason which he felt was good enough to beat her up.Someone may say no reason is good enough...chapter closed. I remember sharing with you earlier that every person has a reason for every action he/she takes,wether good or bad.If he had beat her to death,he will still have a reason for his action and he would engage the services of a lawyer who will readily defend him in the court of law.That's the kind of world we live in...simply void of love. You know,on television this morning,I just kept hearing the news on rape.In case you are thinking the victim may have caused it for herself,well sorry to diasppoint ...

The Career Woman

I stumbled upon this beautiful article on IFP while researching on other stuff and thought to share it. It's a 4 minutes read. I totally agree with it. Gender equality seems to be the one issue that isn't going away. Many of us like to believe sexism is something that only plagued the workplaces of yesteryear, but unfortunately it still exists. Don't believe us? Well, in 2016 just 57% of the world's  working-age women  were in employment, compared to 70% of their male counterparts. And even the females who were in work were struggling to catch up with the men. Women with  full-time jobs  still earn only about 77% of their male counterparts' earnings. Of course, the issue is complex and many expect that because most countries have made it illegal to pay women less than men, that gender inequality has fixed itself. However, problems surrounding  unconscious bias , parental leave, and outdated stereotypes about gender roles persist in the workplace. But what are th...
