I Don’t Want Everything

What is the perfect life? I believe it is different for every single person, but the media tries to get us all to want the same things… We are socialized to have certain expectations from life, and follow a specific pathway to happiness. We all know the pathway. […]

I AM HUMAN

I can’t remember my first thought, my first desire nor my first wish… I don’t know what provoked my first cry, my first smile nor my first laugh… But before I uttered my first words, I knew I was special, made for a purpose. I had dreams, held […]

A Time For Oneself

The Bible says that there is a time for everything, and preaches the message of balance in our lives. In Christianity, we are taught to deny ourselves, and humble ourselves, putting God and others first. This message is important in a world filled with self-centred people who spend […]

Reader Questions: Dina on Remarriage

Oh Happy Day!!!

On the 26th of June 2012, I launched my blog, not knowing the impact it would have on my life!  I’d always been a writer, writing short/long stories and poetry since I was a child.  However, I felt God’s leading to not add old content to this blog.  Everything […]

Girls Run The World?

As much as I am an idealist, there is one reality that I cannot escape – that this is indeed a man’s world!  I am certain that Beyonce knows this, even though she chooses to sing songs to motivate women to see themselves as leaders, even as she […]

The Boyfriend And The Husband

The boyfriend has it the best!!!  He can do no wrong, and every good deed he does is golden 🙂 The husband, on the other hand, can hardly get it right!  Any good deed he does is suspect.  I mean, what is he getting at being so nice? […]

As You Love Me
