Finally I See

The Storm is OVER, Can I enjoy my life now please? I bet many of you would love to be saying this right about now. But for some of you the reality is this: There comes a time in life when it seems like your back is pushed against the wall, you throw your hands up and say: ok, ok, enough now, no more . Everything has just been thrown at you and you think, please Lord, no more, I can't take it . It almost makes you feel like you are in a circus, assigned a new role: Lady Juggler - As each problem arises you try and deal with each one as much as you can, but then a next ball of problems or issue surfaces, if its not your job, its about your finances, if its not about your finances, its then about your relationships, family issues, health and so forth. To top it all off, someone throws you another ball of their own problems, to only confuse your flow of somewhat trying to endure your own pain. At this point you acknowledge you not only don't have the strengt...

I know I haven't written a blog for a while, but there has been many things going on at the same time starting from: work, family, friends and just good old life related. But as we all know, time waits for no man, so we got to tackle whatever we got to face and keep on going: So here's today's blog: STOP! What is the first thing that comes to mind when this word is said? To me the word  STOP  can be explained  differently  based on any situation we come across. The Thesaurus defines the word STOP as: Termination, Conclusion, End, Finish. For the above definitions I would like to look at the word STOP in the aspect of: Loneliness, Addictions, Excuses, Pity Parties and Singleness. See the thing is; in all the actions we take in life to compensate for being in a relationship, feeling stronger, bolder or even just confident and fearless can become an obstacle to moving forward. Therefore as funny as it may sound,...

Learning about your true beauty and then knowing it whilst embracing it doesn't mean you need to be stuck up or put other women down that doesn't know yet. Remember a lady which carry's herself with her head lifted up high, walks with integrity and great standards. She is looked on from afar as a positive role model, as a lady that may have been through crazy struggles but has now become strong  and aims only to continue to defeat them all one by one. She may have her mountains to climb, but she knows she is NOT alone and one day she will reach the top, no matter how long it may take. This I call Beautiful. A Lady who can smile and know that even in the mist of the trails, she knows everything will be OK  and she will live to share the good news of overcoming the storms. This I call Beautifully strong. A lady who knows what she has been through, and instead of holding all the accomplishments and battles won to herself, decides to ...

I Trust You . Such powerful words to exchange, to let someone know that no matter what happens, what is said, what is done, you trust them. How many times has these powerful words been abused, taken for granted or felt like they have been trampled on? I've had my share of people breaking my trust a few times. I was not impressed at all. But at the end of the day I had to learn either to walk away from that person or forgive that person especially if they genuinely didn't mean to misuse my trust. Which one do you choose? The famous saying: ' It takes years to build up trust and only seconds to destroy it.' I've always said to actually trust someone is to believe in them, believe in your relationship with each other knowing that they will not do anything intentionally to hurt you.  But the reality about it all, is that we are all just humans , we fail at times and we are not God! God on the other hand never fails , as much as some ma...

Where do I begin? To me this subject is always a sensitive one. This topic along with other subjects was discussed in my church Pastorate (Bible group) a few days ago and yes we had a few people (women) ask majority of the single, dating questions. Surprise, Surprise. See the thing is, what does being a single woman actually mean? To me, being single means not married yet. Then you might ask, what about Dating? Dating means, being interested in someone who might potentially become your partner, that is to say you ‘like’ them; if not you move unto the next one (this can be very dangerous). But Biblically speaking, dating didn't exist.  Plain and simple . Therefore I go back to my first example: Single means ‘NOT’ married. Being single for me has had its lows & highs. I write this blog not only from my experiences but also from observation. I’ve had my share of ‘dating’; I’ve even been close to being married at one point. But at the end of the day, s...
