Things We Do For Love

Love they say ain't an easy thing
And it sure ain't about feelings
Love is mature, not self-seeking
Love is letting go even when it's hard but that's the best option
Love is...
Summary of the story ... I guess I love you

Tough... But There's Light

The road is rough
The journey tough
But I'm moving on
Holding on
'Cos I know
And I know
That there's light at the end of this tunnel
And I sure am going to see this light

Dreams

I'm dreaming; like I'm Joseph

Ha ha!

Maybe I'm Joseph

The dreams currently seem lofty, hazy and unattainable.

But I like Joseph, will achieve them all!

The Confused Man

There's nothing worse than a confused man,

Nothing than a man with no purpose,

Nothing than one tossed wherever the wind blows.

The guy expects much about nothing in particular

And of course he receives a lot of hard knocks from his 'expectations'

How much worse can it get?

Well probably not much

But then his life is one that lacks color, full monochrome!

How sad!

Thoughts

Straying thoughts

Wandering mind

And then you wonder,

"Thought, how did you drop? How did you get here?"

And it replies "You mind, wandered!"

Ha ha!

Me in the Spotlight

I'm a pretty private person, I won't ordinarily go out of my way to be the center of attraction but somehow it most often happens!
How this happens well... excellence in what I do and then everyone's looking for the unknown person with the big reputation (ha ha I feel very egoistic).
But today this is not the case. I changed my facebook err marital status(is that what it's called? Really don't know!) to 'It's Complicated' and let's just say I got more reactions than I expected. That honestly wasn't my intention, I just thought I needed to keep it up to date after all, that's what facebook is about, abi?
It actually put a smile on my face for a whole lot of reasons. ;-)
I'm grateful for the drama in my life that keeps it spicy!

The Role of Men?!?

I love the men in my life! Daddy, Bolu, Noor & Shulez, I love them loads and they know it.
I've also got some male friends as well who are really dear to my heart and they know themselves.

But right now I have a big issue in this male-dominated society we (or is it just me?) live in.

The other day a guy at work was saying I don't have anything to do with my money 'cos there's a guy footing my bills - Wat? Puh-leez!!!(with my eyes rolling!)

As if that wasn't enuough, the next day- yesterday, I went out for lunch and my cell phone fell done and the cover came off. A guy nearby just said 'Sorry. Don't worry he'll buy you a new one and if he doesn't tell me, i'll buy you one.'

Is this what this world has turned into or is that we females have so belittled ourselves that we are subject to the gifts of the men in our lives?
Don't get me wrong, I love to get gifts from my man every now and then and also love to feel pampered but then, why the heck am I working if I can't foot my bills.
I bought the phone with my hard-earned, sweating money (I know how much garri I soaked afterwards!)
But really the gist is men have come to see us as women who can be bought and it's really really sad.
I just wish we''ll stop being that and live up to our responsibilities and quit them excuses!
(To be continued!)
