For over a year and a month I have been single, it was devastating at first as we had just four months to clock 3 years but when we spoke about a month after we broke up (she did the breaking) she told me she had moved on. It was hard to comprehend; how on earth do you move on after a relationship of more than 2 years that was so sweet and had no major issues? I was glad that she told me she had moved on though, cos it was all I needed to move on myself - what was I sulking for? Aunty no reason me again na 😂. She's happily engaged now and I'm really happy for her.

Generally, my love life has been really weird but when I sum it all up, it has been the reason for my healthy heart, my happiness and my confidence. Deep down somewhere - not desperately - I know I am ready for another relationship but I am not panicking. F...

Happy New Year Guys! How is 2018 unfolding for y'all? I know many of you expected that things would fall in place this early - some of you might have your expectations falling in place already - but I have to remind you that it is way too early to start nagging. You could use some more patience and positivity; some persistence too would pass. 😉 My first post this year is from one of the blogs I am devoted to; a blog that is one of my inspirations - marcandangel.com . I have decided to publish this post here to help you stay focused for this year as I have noticed that I am in little ways spending my 2018 energy wrongly; something y'all might possibly be doing as well without knowing it. Source : Google Images These are things you're already doing in 2018 that you need to start dropping with a conscious effort: 1.  Mulling over past hardships. – You’ll never see the great things ahead of you if you keep looking at the bad things behind you. You are exactly wh...

In some few hours 2017 will be gone with the wind and I must confess that it was a remarkable journey with you. It was the rebirth of this blog this year and I am really grateful to you for the visits, subscription, comments and shares. You are the reason I'd be stepping into 2018 with a flame of continuity and consistency. Here we are, the last song and I hope that after this music stops, it's every components - the genre, the notes, the beat, the rhythm, the lyrics, the tone etc - would leave a residue that could lighten-up the fire you need to burn through 2018. Source: Google Images This song might not have been a hit song, it might not have had the right lyrics, it might not have been recorded in the best studio, it might have been produced by some rookie-producer, could have possibly had the 'wackest' artist and then he featured some guy with the most horrible voice you've heard, you could even be wondering how it got on your playlist but it's just...

Heyo peeps... Been minutes since y'all heard from me and really I must apologise for my long absence. It's been rough lately but hell yeah! 💪 Slim is back 😉. I missed you all, who missed me? It was my birthday yesterday 💃 and i must say I am really grateful to y'all for making it a special one. I've got much love for y'all😍. #thankGodfor24 Inspired by my blogger friend Olufunke, (y'all should check her blog out by the way, you can thank me later) this post is to let you in on some of the things you don't know yet about me. With this TMI tag as a form of questionnaire, I'm on the hot seat and would answer the questions as best as I can. Source: Pinterest Shall I.... White shorts and a shirt. Hmmmn....I've really really liked some people. oh yeah...not one. 6ft 1in (i feel i'm taller). 127.9lbs (wasn't comfortable with kg...convert it to kg yourself...lol).  No. No. Denzel Washington and Viola Davis.

Hello friends, it's been a minute. Happy Sunday!! Recently, I was under a ministration at the National Transformation Conference at House on the Rock, Enugu by Pastor Shedrach Gentle. It was a deep message on fulfillment of purpose and I'm certain that it'd be really transforming if I share a highlight of the much revealing sermon. 4 The Lord said to me, 5 "Before I formed you in your mother's womb I chose you. Before you were born I set you apart. I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:4-5 "A man without purpose is like the world without the sun" Out of a lot that was said he gave 9 things you need to fulfill purpose.

There was once a time when we called a friend to a hideout or a secluded corner to talk about a third party, there was once a time when we consciously and intentionally talked down a third party in the face of people or someone who held the person in high esteem, there was a time when people's stare and gaze was because there is something striking about your presence that moment. The reverse is just the case now! It's almost always certain that you are being stared at in the office, school or apartment cos you have been a subject of gossip, we don't need to be any conscious or intentional, it's almost reflex to talk a third party down not caring about endangering the person's relationship with the discussants, gossiping is no more discreet, it's just very normal that it can be done right under the subject's nose. Gossiping is now a language! "The only thing worse about not being talked about is not being talked about " - Oscar Wilde. They...

#tgif lovelies Recently, I have grown to become tired of my phone...not that it gives me issues but I have used it for so long (about 1 year and 5 months) and it sickens me sometimes, besides the windows phone and the windows store (especially if the OS is windows 8.1) is 'so dead' compared to the google play store.... I just need a change - something like the Nokia 6, sorry I mean the iPhone 8 or iPhone X would do 😉 Well back to the subject matter, today's post was inspired by a subscriber and a friend's post; "What's in my mailbox?" and though I plan to share mine one of these days, I have been stuck to one of the things that still makes my phone feel wanted and that is my playlist. My playlist could be boring to you and I apologise for that, it's not cos I'm a PK (preacher's kid) or a Christian, I really love music as it is the very perfect vessel (alongside art) through which we convey humankind's relationship with it...
