Green is not your colour!!!

      Ever had one of those days when a  really well dressed stranger passes you by?
( emphasis on the REALLY!!) Normally  you would  never look twice at anyone when you walk down the streets, but there is always that one exception,when  you can't help but stare and give credit where its due.
Today morning happened to be one of those days, i met  a lady who had definitely discovered her sense in fashion, tres chic!! And i wasn't the only one who noticed, cause everyone i  was standing next to at the bus stop was as mesmerized! We were following her with our eyes, literally!! But as she was slowly getting out of sight, i noticed  another  lady too, she had this look on her face, like disgust or some kind of anger..and she was  looking straight  at the smart lady.It was a look i will probably  never forget, because it was a bit scary.My facts may be wrong but i could have sworn she was jealous ( or maybe she knew the lady and  had some sort of  grudge with her, who knows!?!) But that scary look was just too creepy and i left that bus stop thinking of  that look that screamed GREEN MONSTER!!!!! JEALOUSY


Those eyes! That stare!
You might just burn your eyes with that horrible glare.
From head to toe,
Searching for that one little fault..
Yet all you see is what you are not.


Green lil monster unleashing the horror,
Green lil monster taking over!

All you do is compare,
Leaving your heart in more despair.
You forget what you have,
You think of what others have.

Green lil monster having its way,
Green lil monster taking you away!

(Umy)

I don't remember where i got this  quote from but it captures the jealousy theory in an incredible way. " When you are  jealous of someone, its either  they have what you want or  they have what you don't have" ( it goes something like that, not sure)
Jealousy eats away some part of you that makes you forget the special things that remind you of who you are or even the blessings you have in your life.I am  beyond perfect so believe me when i tell you  that  jealousy eats away your soul, and i know that  through experience when it ate mine.

The only way to destroy this monster is to  start appreciating the things that we already have and the person that we are.It's not easy , but its much better to live life with a less greener soul!

PS: If green is your favourite colour, ignore the title to this post! And Environmentally, am ALL GREEN

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

The good,the bad the ugly…the beautiful years of my life!

Happy new year!!!Two weeks down the line, and I still can’t predict how my 2013 will go down. I bet that’s the exciting part about new years( except from the annoying fact that I still   keep writing down the dates as 2012). Took me a while to write my first 2013 post,mostly cause I   had a cliché   idea of writing something about fresh starts,but I won’t take that turn.New year means a lot of things not just new beginnings, it’s also about rolling with the days as they come even when everything seems to stay the same, year in year out. Above all I can’t deny the fact that am alive, who knows what could have happened and nothing makes my heart more grateful   to my God for that blessing. So my first post this year is a lyrical piece written and   dedicated to my 2012 memories and 2013 ‘s unpredictable events. Two decades,that’s how long    I waited for you… If I could wait this long,then what could   possibly go wrong? I knew so...

Don't break my heart...

From the moment i loved you, I was afraid to say these words, But deep down i could feel it,and i knew it... Don't break my heart.. Don't tear me apart... With you am happy, That's how i know am lucky.. Without you,i am without me Don't break my heart... Don't tear me apart... Even though i know you will... This is no love poem,or else i'd have poured my whole heart out in my longest post ever!!!But i know how it looks and sounds,it's simply my love poem to this beauty called life...I heard a song this morning by Gym Class Heroes "Get Your A** Back Home" not the best title to a song(i know) but this line kept haunting me all morning "this type of life didn't come with instructions" By now if you reading this and thinking ,"like duh!!who din't know that??" hold onto that thought for just a bit. This is one of the most obvious facts:The  things that life can throws at us,sometimes can...
