We have had the privilege of visiting the Library of Congress last Saturday and the details from the outside of the building, all the way to the interior design, is just outstanding! Can you imagine how much work went into completing such meticulous designs? Which makes me wonder, how much work does God set aside…

Riding Through Life
Nothing is ever too late. I never learned how to bike. My brothers didn’t get their first bike until they were in high school. I tried learning. But then, I was told that biking can take away a girl’s virginity and you know how important that was back then? So I quit. That.. and my…
True Connections
Back when I first joined Facebook nine years ago (I think), I thought it was the best thing that ever happened since the internet. Imagine being able to connect to hundreds, even thousands of people and friends that you haven’t talked to or seen for years. Imagine being able to share photos with family within…
Women Empowering Women
“Us women, need to see our worth without the approval of anyone. Our worth is not measurable by the clothes we wear, the shape of our body, how beautiful we are or what others think of us. Know your worth and the rest of the world will.” If I asked you right now, how much…
Not Everyone’s Cup of Tea
Be your own kind of beautiful… When I was younger, I worried a lot about what others thought of me. I got upset easily on their opinions, more so if it’s something that is not true, and yes something that I don’t agree with. It took me a whole forty-eight years to change that outlook…

Forty Plus Eight
“Each birthday, I count not the years but the blessings given, lessons learned, tears and laughter in between and people who stayed within.” Eight days ago, I celebrated my birthday in solitude. It’s been two years now, I think, since I had my birthday set in private on a social media platform. This year, I…
When Jesus Takes The Wheel
I thought I knew who I was. And I’m pretty sure I have things figured out. But then, I took a wrong turn and realized I needed Him to figure out who I am. I think letting Jesus take full control of our lives is the easiest thing we could do, right? I mean, all…
Truth Hurts
Truth hurts. Failure to speak the truth harms the soul. Speaking for the tuth, though painful, frees the spirit. My last full post was dated December 30, 2017. The post that I made after that, I mentioned about having a hard time expressing my emotions. I’ve realized that this is far from the truth. I…
Seeing Beauty
I guess one of the most challenging things nowadays is having to see beauty in everything. Whether it be in physical form or something that goes beyond what we can see. I am talking about beauty beyond its superficial form. Something that’s more than meets the eye. Something that may not be outwardly visible but…
