Its ALL about the STARS!

I have a confession to make, I have had a writer's block ever since I hit the 1000th mark! Sad but true...I tried to write something everyday *and I have had good days* but nothing!! I just kept having stuff on drafts and deleting them completely. I guess I am driven by inspiration and I was not feeling inspired until the weekend happened to me! I have got to say last week was my week. I was in my element alright... I felt happy,needed and loved. I killed some demons I have been facing for a long time now and it felt darn great! My munchkin Chris once told me, NEVER SELL YOURSELF SHORT and I realized I have been doing exactly that. Over and over I had been selling myself short, letting other people's needs come before mine, forgetting my worth along the way...but this weekend I got it back...ALL of it! I don't mean to have a sad mopey story here but I just had to remove that piece of shrapnel from my mind and breathe the fresh air once again:) This post is dedicated to al...

Breaking News- am breaking free!!!!!!

It is  Monday mid morning and I absolutely have nothing to do at the office shocker  but true-one of those days I use to discover my niche. Like all the people who go with the flow, I hate Mondays.I have never liked one Monday one bit...today's is particularly not my favorite. I woke up and paid my daily dues to God ( I forget sometimes but not on Mondays) *Don't judge I need Him more today than most days*- Moment of weakness. Well in my Monday woes I realized most people probably think like me...once they are done with the relaxing or not so relaxing weekend they hate the fact that they are going back to their humdrum lives- whether its school/work/vocation/ commitment Monday acts as the reminder that things have to be done and they have to be done good.The attitude with taking up this challenge is what matters...Today I choose to ignore it, so sue me :) I choose not to change my mindset on that because it would be easier to pretend am deep and intelligent bu...

Half of a Yellow Sun

I was home for a brief moment (OK well, from Thur to Sunday).... I loved the feeling! I soaked every drop of rain, took in awe every scenery, listened in admiration at every sound....what can I say? It had been a minute since I had gone home.It's the first time going home that I did not snooze the whole way going. Well blaming two things, an awesome read, and the music I had on me...too too good ( I can still not get over the Maroon 5 new album- I am in awe). I have to write about the book I was reading a book by a lady I was recently introduced to-thanks to my avid reader BFF. She can write...for the first time in a long time (seems I have had a lot of firsts *chuckle*) I have been soaked on every page of a book I have read....Oh my God I lived to survive the war she was writing about, I knew the characters on a personal note, I cried with them, laughed with them fell in love in a span of 4 days...I could not put the book down. The author am talking ab...

Inspirations....

I enjoy writing. Plain and simpe .I would say its the easiest thing that comes naturally to me next to breathing. I write about everything and anything that inspires me. It has always not been the case, mine has been a scalable process. If you have been an avid reader to my blog you would notice my writing tends to shift from style to style, sometimes am witty and funny, sometimes I employ sarcism, sometimes I write like a girl my age would and sometimes...well most of the times now I write deep stuff. During these moments I search my soul for that voice that would not normally come out. I realize I have multipal personalities...all of which play well with my environment. Today I have been inspired by a man I have never met. A man I have only heard about. A man who put all this creativity into good use early in life and made sure he had paid God his dues. This man might be a cliche name today but be as it may, he reperesents so many things in my life that I have not been able to figu...
