For me, N1000 means that I can get a nice Take Away from my local convenience store, and not have to worry about cooking. With the extra time, I can have more peace of mind as I go about my day. For…
Thank you for giving me the best of you… Even when I didn’t appreciate it. Though I didn’t always understand your discipline, thank you for chastising me in love and for teaching me what it means to be a woman. Thank you for being a living example of […]
Yesterday, I woke up to a video on my Facebook timeline, that I’d been tagged in, of a child being horrifically abused by her care giver. I was horrified to say the least. I was mad as hell!!! So many bad emotions arose in me, and all I […]

To my dear daughter, As you grow, many boys will enter your years. They will speak words of love and passion, of wanting you–all of you. Their sex will be lacking. Believe me, dear girl, I know what crazy hot lovemaking is…
A friend of mine on Facebook nominated me for the #GratitudeChallenge seven days ago, and my initial thought was – “As if?!! Who has the time?” But my Spirit reminded me that there’s always time to be grateful, and well, I have lots to be thankful for. Today, […]

I recently got into a debate with my sister about fornication vs homosexuality. It’s an argument that I’ve had before, and I had in mind to write a post about it, but put it off. Well, today’s passionate discussion rekindled that flame in me. I think this is […]
Is it out of sight out of mind? Are we still praying and actively working for their return? Today is Day 149!
The pressure is ON to loose your virginity like yesterday!!! Parents who might have otherwise counseled you, forbade you or restricted you from sexual involvement before marriage, are now encouraging you to use protection because they have given in to the belief that YOU WILL DO IT ANYWAY, […]
Are you my brother or my enemy? These days it is hard to tell! So many profess the same faith, but their actions are as diverse from yours as the many colours of the rainbow. It is hard to know who is really sincere, who’s right and who’s […]
I am just realising how unthinking, inconsiderate and clueless most people are when it comes to babies. So many think that it’s not only okay to reach out and touch a new born, but that it is wanted and good manners! Well, if you ASK first, and WASH […]
The other day, while I was praying, I said this to God and was taken aback by how profound it was. Until I confessed it, I had never really thought of God that way before. I mean, He is my Wealth! How many people can say that and […]
