i feel lazy like the wind
unable to move my muscles to the beat
life's beat
fear grips often
ever so often
as my chest falls back inside
intimidated or timid, i really can't tell
what i want to be
becoming what i dream are miles apart
so i struggle,
fighting elements,panting
maybe i can get some accolades for trial
but almost never counts is the reply i get
the by stand is filled, too shy to move ahead
too far away to turn back
i stand still as i hear the cat calls and taunts
someone just pointed at me i said
as i felt my skin crawl with saliva
hot blazing sun,
red shot eyes
tired
tied
by my will
not by their jeers.
it can do nothing, I'm alligator skin
inches thick, filled with black pride.
my pride.
so i stand.

I really missed writing on this blog, it was a long weekend and actually interesting one for me. I really enjoy good conversation especially with someone who's deep and interesting. Well, had a good time being heard and spoken with. I just wish....sometimes wish……..
i sometimes wonder the really meaning of perfection, is it a novel idea or real? I just sometimes wonder. tried matching making last week, the guy is a close friend of mine, lets call him Ak and i hooked him up with a friend's friend, (Ka) who I've never met. I just gave Ak a general description, that Ka looked OK, maybe a bit busty but dark and pretty. Some days later i get a call from Ak with a stern warning never to introduce him to someone like Ka, ha!! see me see trouble? na helep na i bi wan helep am....anyways my PI instinct take over as i set out to meet Ka at a friend's friend's party. Was all set to met a Dracula queen when I saw a beautiful,dark girl who was just a little bit rusty in the dressing and makeup department and i started wondering, what’s up with guys and beautiful girls? All we want is a man who’s caring and we don’t mind if he looks like the hunch back of notre dame (actually not as bad sha!) as long as we are helplessly in love with the dude. here was a beautiful Ka being rejected by Ak who if i should add is your average looking dude wanna feel hot...... i don't want to go there....Ka spoke intelligently and works in a nice and good company, she looked like an independent kind of gal. well that's his loss and he should go out and look for miss world, that if she gives him as much as a hoot. An I hope he meets those pretty face no brains who are only interested in the weight of his bank account and how they can deplete it significantly!! Enough said, i really don't want to say what i feel about you.
Good luck Ak!!

i'm soooo happy and all because of a phone call i've been waiting for............
God I'm so grateful...........

what do you say?


I had a short conversation with a friend and she complained about herself to me,

'been feeling kinda low lately, its like I'm stuck in a mold. complaints flow freely and that i hate, my feels keep oscillating. I'm tired of asking God for a change, plain tired..............guess I'm just in the mood. no smiles on my face , tears stinging my eyes,tired all over that's how i feel. then there is this deep gnawing in somewhere inside,I'm just in the wrong place,wrong time..wrong'.

there was nothing particularly wrong physically as she tried explaining her recent feelings,apart from she was very single,been in a series of broken relationships and a broken marriage, lonely, caught up in a dead end job, flat out broke.
i felt kinda sorry for her and wished i could help,being depressed is a scary feeling and that was where she was now,what do you tell a depressed friend to lighten her spirit up? most times we wait to see an outward expression of happiness and forget that joy comes from within out.

How do you tell Azal whose husband walked out on her after a month of marriage because of family pressure and feels rejected about trust,what do you tell C after seeing the other woman at her boyfriend's house about love and faithfulness? what do you say to Tiana who feels rejected and used by someone who promised by law? what do you tell these women, when all they ever wanted was friendship,love and trust. what do you say about starting all over, over again. from where? what do you say about violence to the mind? what do you say?

Why should they they cut power supply when i never see last month bill? infact i vex go their office with slippers and camisole and met a familiar face who could help but refused to. I felt mad, angry and tired, this would make the 2nd day of no electricity!! I begged and pleaded almost cried, na lie the (God forgive me) foolish NEPA guys refused to budge.I went home dejected and cussing, why? nothing ever works in naija, sometimes i wan pack my bag go de stay ghana sef, anyways na im i go house con de rant for my neighbour house, vex, talk all the tins wey de my mind about nepa and their cunny self. she just de laugh but men!! i was filled with rage! if to say i fit corner one of these nepa guys for dark na electric abi na thunder na i for conjure take stone them.

Does the law of karma affect those other things?

Dream on dreamer, life's on the way........

Higher by Creed
When dreaming

I'm guided through another world
Time and time again
At sunrise
I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there Let's ask can we stay?
Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine.

This is one of my favorite songs and I always love listening to it when I’m in a reflective mood or dreaming about something. I sometimes call myself Joseph the dreamer, used to say some rather outlandish stuff when I was little to my sisters and they would just laugh. My problem has always been fear factor, inability to move and the idea that I have to wait for stuff to just fall in place.
Hmm, this weekend was really great and insightful. I purposed in my heart certain things and started the machinery for its unfolding……..ok..too much grammar.
I’m big on dreams, have always dreamt of being an entrepreneur, a musician, a model , actress, beauty queen , socialite, writer, poet, wife of a billionaire(still working on that), see my face on ebony , Genevieve, true love, own a magazine…. (the list is endless) Soon all other issues and stuff made me dream more and sometimes put pen on paper. I ventured into some stuff but they soon died because of fear of commitment. Dreams are good , they make you wander into foreign lands in your minds eyes. They sometimes give hope and the will to live. I’m a big dreamer by nature and this weekend I took an extra bold step, working towards my dream realization. I don’t want to wake up 10 years later and find out the world just moved on with me standing in same space. Sometimes I wonder sometimes if its wrong to dream, what if they never come true and the total opposite happens. People say its lack of tenacity and point out people who against all odds achieved the unachievable, well, got nothing to say about that. Some people say never expect nothing so that you will be grateful for what happens to you. That’s pessimism in disguise sha. For me its more like a mixture of pessimism and optimism/faith. Keeping faith, helps keep your dreams alive burning within. i also realised that people help to push you to your dreams, the playa haters and the good friends alike. Love your friends that encourage you and tell you the truth in love and love those that hate your guts, your drive and the good God has deposited inside of you, sometimes they just need a very good example which you are. ok...enuf ramblings.....just dream on expect the best. to all my friends, i really love and appreciate you guys for keeping me sane all through these years......................

choppins

Na wa oh! i like food well well, i just finish pounded yam and edikanikong soup wit beta goat meat, na so i just de bless the person wey helep me buy the food sef. i gara talk this one here pips! the thing enter well , well........

am i religious?

Have been kinda troubled in my mind and it concerns my weekend outing that i mentioned earlier, i agreed on going on for a religious event with a friend. The church hosting it are well known for their stringent rules and regulations and this event had a specific set of rules which had to be followed to get the desired results. I have been pretty sceptical but my friend was quite encouraging as she believed it would be the end of our problems, but i have been unsettled in my mind and my beliefs because i felt like i was now depending on a man to get my prayers answered instead of looking up to God, i now felt like i was needy,desperate and kinda uncontrollable i.e i could go to any length just to be fulfilled. this was highlighted more in a talk with a dear friend... i really had to think and reflect on myself and beliefs. called to cancel to the dismay of my friend who wanted a partner badly. I new a change is not going to come until i change myself and make a firm decision to stay changed.
That's the decision i have made. I'm shaky, because its hard, we all know living to God's standard is hard, there are things i do, situations i get in that i forget all about him and think about self satisfaction. For some of us nothing ever works right expect its done right. That's me for sure, so i better start acting right before i realise its too late and all i'm filled with is coulda , shoulda , woulda.

Dieting

Sometimes I wonder about splashing all my personal life on the blog but I fear the risk of been looked at with ‘one kind eye’. It seems like am always in one stuff or the other. in my life, dull moments may seem like eternity but in a blink of an eye , wham!! something happens turning my surreal life to one fast paced nollywood movie.someone says its because of my mischievious nature, i wonder.

Anyways the latest thing I’m in to now is fruit diet, I feel whacked sha doing it but I got this huge tummy for my rather slim figure apart from the thought of trying to look like Beyounce (kindly note the use of ‘trying’). That’s another story, there are no similarities between us at all,length breadth and all that.(still believe in miracles).
My new year’s resolution is to have a flatter tummy, trim and work on my overall body shape blah blah blah blah. Although I’ve been told there’s no need for that, tried exercising at home, I think I only achieved that thought wise. Plan 2 was early morning jogging and after a day I quit, who wants to run so early in the morning when I should be enjoying the comfort of my comfy bed? Well not me. So I quit and just admired those beautiful girls in MTV and magazines. Then in may I decided to join a gym, went there a certain evening and was certainly punished,could hardly lift a finger when I got home that evening, the next morning I felt like a car had ran me over. (who send me message sef?)

Anyways, I’m not giving up or quiting hence the start of a fruit diet, so far so good but I miss eating all that good food, ice cream, coke my beloved coke…(sigh!).

dieting, exercise all that............

Wedding Bells

This post is dedicated to a very close friend, who has been like a brother and a best friend to me through the years i've known him, he his walking down the aisle with his heartthrob tomorrow. I'm wishing them the best things they pray for in life.

i love reading this poem by Maya Angelou, its really inspiring and read it a blog and thought i should share....


A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own, even if she never wants to or needs to...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
something perfect to wear if the employer, or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a youth she's content to leave behind....
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age....
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal, that will make her guests feel honored...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a feeling of control over her destiny.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to fall in love without losing herself.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without; ruining the friendship...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK AWAY...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW..
whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen table... or a charming inn in the woods... when her soul needs soothing...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she can and can't accomplish in a day... a month...and a year...

These words........

words always flow out of me,
they are my constant companions, weaving imaginations in my heart,
filling my heart with conversation.
they are so familiar with me, as we play to the beat of the sound,
caressing my thoughts as it floats past my ears,
pictures of reality form every minute in my mind as i conjure words to fit in papers,
no need to lay hold on pen as i can recall my friends.
in the stillness and silence,words bubble upward spreading their beautiful wings,
i see clearly my words come to life........

'Love is many things, its varied. One thing it is not and can never be is unsure'- Maya Angelou (Madea Family Reunion).
When a heart’s broken,
I wonder what it takes to mend;
Time or feeling?
Is it best to forget and move on?
Or forget and stand still with fear,
Endless time stands still, reverberating through the life tunnel,
sometimes you stand still and see feelings grow and fade and grow and fade……
Where will yours end?
Sometimes truth hurts like a million daggers in a open wound
Its true that tears fall when we cry,
Streams flow down the crevices of our face, scaring our hearts already laden with pain,
Memories sometimes lead us to that,
Reminiscing, thoughts in torrents,
Sometimes we fall on same slime,
To stand takes us time,
Do you stand in time past or feelings felt to go on?

what is love? its one thing i have longed to know, when i see a couple happy,i wonder if its love that brings out that glow in her eyes and the spring in his walk. Is it just a fast heartbeat at the sight of someone,strong physical attraction,a desire to sacrifice all you have just to make someone happy? i seriously wonder what it is because i want to have and keep it. those it transcend the physical, is it meant for two people or can one be in love with several people at same time?

Love to me means a fast heartbeat,sharing,companionship,promise,selflessness and also pain,hurt ,tears,heartbreak. Love this, love that......its also not just a feeling but a big commitment that says even in your worst state i still love you. How i long to meet that person that would act that way, i aight talking about God or Jesus, i know all about that.

right now i feel like I've emptied it all on people that have taken it for granted and i have none to give because my well is empty and my heart is cold. Sometimes i act cynical when am around people who seem so much in love, i sometimes wonder how long can he / she stay in love? The older i get, the more i get this feeling that i'll never experience it.....just too scared,sometimes i feel really hopeful.......hopeful for brighter days.

i have been putting away answering the question i put out some weeks ago, waiting for answers not same questions!
well, i know we are all shy and reserved, that should be your private business, but you can't wait to read mine,how hypocritical!!!
OK, who's in my bed?? i got a wonderful bear......really red and white cute little teddy that's on my bed. its really strange because I've always hated stuffed animals. A longtime ex gave me a stuffed animal once (rabbit i think) as Val's present, was pissed because i wasn't expecting an animal!! so,immediately gave it to my baby niece as a present. this teddy was acquired in a not to be spoken way........so more questions are welcome, see ya

I'm listening to Mary J. Blige's 'take me as i am' and I'm thinking these random thoughts,
we all have a list for everything, our ideal house, job, car, girlfriend,wife,family therefore
forget ourselves in the perfect world we try to create,make around us or achieve.
we lose sight of our imperfections that makes us and try to be perfect, flawless, just be right in the eyes of others. All we think about is a perfect picture we have to create for others to be envious.
Also, we forget that we have other people's list to measure up to or else we'll faced with rejection. Rejection is something we dread instinctively but sometimes do it deliberately to others we feel don't measure up but we expect to be handled leniently and loving while we rise the bar and high handed with others not considering their circumstance.
why can't we be real and take each other as we are?
we can only get better and not transformed to self made creatures filled with pride,
we can improve and not be perfect as the Jones. humanness is shown in our defects and flaws, our ability to make mistakes and learn from them, to cry and make amends, to ask forgiveness and repent, to move ahead and be unstuck from past. the knowledge that you cannot judge your brother without exposing yourself makes us vulnerable of our weakness and more compassionate to him without being judgemental lending a helping hand to make him a better person.
Acceptance is key to knowledge, true knowledge of who we are, how we can improve not losing our self in 'the list'.
just take me as i am, i have nothing at all. i can only be B.

Through my mind's eyes
i see things so real that it hurts to know
i may never live it or feel
Through my senses
i hear your voice calling you need me,
i turn to know its only through my senses
i feel,
i taste,
thoughts of you weigh deep inside
as i float through scenes played out in time.
possibilities seem endless as i watch your move,
further,further.
i strain harder
to catch your thoughts,
through your mind's eyes.
