how satisfied are you with your life?

Many are the times i have wondered, 'am i satisfied with my life?'. A few years back in college i used to have random chats with my cousin. He was abit older than me but i could not agree with him when he would tell me that in 5 year's time, my mind would be completely different in terms of my thoughts and that i would totally believe in things i never believed in. I was completely wrong, because its been like 9 years now and my mind is nowhere in those thoughts and believes i had. In my own little mind, i thought i would get married to my first love, even after he had broken my heart.Then at some point i believed there was no true love and that people get married in a sort of understanding each other just because we are human beings and we need companionship, Now i believe you can love a person, because no one is perfect and u should try to make the imperfect perfect in your partner(though not in all cases, only when the other party feels the same and is willing to do the same as you).

I had made my little list of the things i would love to try or do before am 30 and am glad i have done most of them and the two remaining....tick..tock..time is running out. I thought i would be done with my school( i am though am thinking of being back), Thought i would be married and have my 1st kid( not yet, but am not 30yet, demn!! will i make this one!). Have a career, own my 1st car, have long lasting friends, working out, do lots of shopping, In short be an Independent woman!(all these fullfilled!)

i feel like my life is taking the right path, At points in my life i have been very naughty, crazy but i have never lacked focus. I made sure in the midst of all the madness and crazyness, i went to school(when i was a student) and i go to work.I am hardworking that is one thing that beats me! wow..the way i have my fun(i loooove enjoying my life) but the way am holding up my life in my hands...it beats me! am a genious.lol.

My life has changed most in my 20's, wow how my thoughts have changed every year, life has become more serious. I have made some silly mistakes and learnt from them. I have left my friends in my home country, maintained all of them, met new friends and most of them been worth the time. I am glad i can be loved and i can love, I am glad that life has thrown me in all spaces and i have carried some lesson from every space. I am glad i embrace change.

At this point of my life, i am happy and very satisfied in my life! All i know is that when u Believe and dream you can get there. I am in process thanks to God. (oh yes..am still running to meet that 30yrs deadline! #wishmeluck#

Look at Her! Feel Her!

You're invited somewhere famous for a Sunday morning walk. You had been very active then and had nothing better to do than catch up with friends on long walks in your Motherland where you are now a visitor. Early Sunday morning ! Your Friend's friends arrive and introductions are civil. You note one, no eye contact. You feel her presence. In this glorious walk, admist tall bold trees, you see her, you do not talk, you feel her.  You look at the bright blue skies, you soak in the sun. The sun is literally shining on your face because you can feel her presence, you do not talk to her. You are in awe. You do not talk to her. The walk ends. Catastrophe! You panic silently!. How can this end and you haven't talked to her, what if you never see her again? You see her, but do not talk o her. A smart person proposes Lunch! Thank the universe for smart people. I think of it as a women empowerment lunch because all these women had moved back to Motherland and I wanted to hear their e...

Empower the girl child!

what is it that comes to my mind when i think about the girl child? Alot i could say! Alot! Me having being one of them, it saddens me how the girl child comes out as! well, sometimes we enjoy it we cant say we dont( esp for attention lovers! like me! ha!). Depending on which part of the world you grow up in and the way communities have valued the girl child. I was over the moon when saudi agreed to send the female team to the olympics(hands up men! good job well done). To believe that a woman's place is somewhere, at home, taking care of husband and children while the men explore the world is a totally unfair thing! Imagine the pressure on those women, to shine and show the world that they deserved that after fighting for long! And down in history it will go, that women did participate in the olympics and am soo glad it starts from here! I am glad our mothers fought for some things, but woe unto us, we are still fighting to liberate ourselves. To know that we can do something!...

Mamma: Fare thee well; our fallen Hero!

I met you just about 5 years ago, i remember that day clearly, a stormy snowy November Evening. We had driven to Perniö through this shit storm. You had waited for a while to meet me, so excited your daughter had found love again. You couldn't wait and had called a few times trying to find out how far we were. I was quite nervous on the other hand, i thought of the petty stupid things, i thought of my colour and my presentation and wondered if you would approve. I was anxious for nothing as you proved to me..silly me.. Then we arrived, butterflies filled my tummy! You were standing by the door before I even got out the car,  and the moment I did, you stretched your arms, hugged and said ' welcome to our home, you have been so awaited,' the butterflies vanished, just like that, because that's the kind of woman you were! Your touch calmed everyone in crisis, your hugs consoled and healed many emotional wounds. I can tell what a great mother, grandmother and great grandmot...
