Does curiosity really kill the cat?

Well,if you are like me ,wanting to know what what this blog is all about will just be natural.
And really,I will try and clarify it immediately.This blog is restricted to only married and single people.
Absurd... right,what I mean to say is there are no restrictions!
You are either married or single.You will agree with me that divorced,separated,widowed, civil partner,married still fall under two groups.

In this blog,we will be as real as possible so that everyone can learn and draw from the wealth of the experiences we have shared over the years.You will sometimes find something to laugh about,something to cry about,something that will bring back memories but if there is anything i guarantee,you will not have wasted your time because you will always find something inspiring, and become a more sensitive person.In short,I see you always returning back to this blog like an Oliver Twist wanting more.And that will be quite a challenge but don't we all love challenges.

Meanwhile,it is surely not a whine cry about being single neither is it a presumed overjoyous single girl forum waiting for the guy who is being prepared(why is it taking such a long time for the preparation????haba there is only one preparation that has been taking a long time that we are all waiting for... see John 14.1).Or as they like to put it ,"you are being prepared that is why it is taking such a longtime"...hmmmm, in either way people somehow try to say in very diplomatic ways it is your fault you aren't married or are single again(painfully even when you are widowed),but we will come to that.
Please always feel free to contribute to the articles being shared and point out areas of possible improvement.

Being real is only when you are truly you.
Gracillis.

The things I never told my Mother

Growing up for me was blissful. I had a father who would listen,  empower  and reinforce to me the fact that God fearfully and wonderfully created me. Daddy told me daily how I could be anything I wanted to be. You see, my daddy was 30 years older than my mother. He was better educated in “terms of certificates” than her and he was a greatly travelled gentleman. My mother on the flip side, was only a standard six certificate  holder, from  a more humble background but “a very intelligent woman” without the glory of “many paper certificates”.   By virtue of the gap in their background, my mother’s mantra was to beat the discipline physically, by “fire by force” into one’s body. My father would discuss with you and explain very calmly, ensuring that you understood what and why you need to make recommended changes. The two had modus operandi that were the opposite to each other.   I look back and cannot remember the one time my father hit me or ever shouted at me. However, my mo

Changing my Yes

I had hardly been months in a particular relationship and was not expecting a proposal so quickly as I had my doubts. So I was a bit taken aback when on an outing one evening, just by the car,he put one knee to the ground to ask for my hand in marriage .I was not overly excited or elated and did not give an answer until several days later .Some of my friends were happy for me and said the excitement may come later  but somehow I did not feel excited even after saying yes but  It just seemed that was the next step expected and I was also hoping that now the relationship had taken a serious turn, some of the issues I had would be addressed. The very first time I met this guy (let’s call him Kenneth ),one of the things he said to me was that “ I love truth ”. But I soon discovered that it was actually the opposite. Several times, I heard him say things that were not true and even when I accosted him, there was one excuse or the other. Another issue I experienced was the fact that I

Put Your best foot forward

 A wise person once said “ First impressions last long ” and when it comes to meeting new people especially if they happen to be members of our new family or extended family by that thing called “love” ,it is important that we deliberately make sure we create good impressions. This is because according to Andrew Grant, “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”. Although not all   first impressions are necessarily true, it  is usually a herculean task to change wrong first impressions. Just this afternoon, I was chatting with a friend and she ended the conversation with “dealing with in-laws is a skill” . While almost everybody wants to be married, not everyone wants to deal with in-laws or the stereotype mother in-law. The latter seems to be the most unloved compound name word and some people have even been known to pray that they would not have one by the time they meet their spouses! Well that kind of prayer is only fair to be answered if they also mean that
