I CHOOSE TODAY!

Today I choose to be happy, with what I have, wherever I am,and  to be productive.

it is not the day I set aside the things I need to do.

Because today I choose to forgive the people who hurt me, but more than that, I forgive myself for giving them the power to do so, those that I have hurt too should please forgive me. 

I choose to move on, to look forward to a positive tomorrow, to remember the past but not to be affected by it.

I choose to dream again, to build new dreams, and to believe that anything with God is possible.

I look at the goodness in me, and see the good in others too, I embrace my imperfections and see beyond my faults.

I choose to believe in miracles because  the God that I know and serve is still in the miracle business, I open myself to endless possibilities and shower of blessings from above, I am a victor and refuse to be a victim.

I choose to love the most difficult people in my life, because now I look at things from a new perspective  and believe that I will see something I've missed before.

I choose to face the unknown with boldness, because I ask myself, what's there to be afraid of,if God is on my side? I choose to be in control of my life and trust God.

And so today I choose to live and most of all be HAPPY.

Bio-Oil

Bio-Oil is an everyday moisturizer that  gives you a softer and beautiful skin, it's recommended for use for scars, stretch marks, during and after pregnancy.

This oil also helps reduce the possibility of stretch marks and improves the appearance of ones that already exist, it has always been my savior during my pregnancies, I apply it all over my tummy and breast and luckily no stretch marks were apparent after I had my kids. Apparently it's  one of the best products to get rid of stretch marks and cellulite.

 Bio-Oil is not only good for your skin, it's also a great pre-wash treatment to help replenish dry and damaged hair. Simply put a towel down on your pillow before bed, work the oil through your hair and then sleep on it overnight to help lock in the moisture. Wash your hair in the morning and see how shiny it looks plus the healthy boost it gives.

This is shea butter mixed with bio-oil and this can be use as a daily hair food, for your dry skin and cracked heels.  It's inexpensive and easy to get anywhere, it's smells amazing and it's non-greasy too!... Hope you get one and try it.

WOMEN HATING WOMEN

Hello everyone, its been centuries since i last wrote a blog. Well i have been busy with other stuffs.
So today am writing about why women keep hating on each other

Is no more news that women are their own enemies, a friend told me a story about how a friend she took as a sister betrayed and lied about her with the purpose of breaking up her home, just because she was jealous of the family she has now.

A single lady  has friends and goes everywhere with them, the friends will immediately start gossiping and hating when she tells them the handsome guy she's dating has proposed marriage and he's ready to make her  his wife.

On her wedding day, they will be part of the bridal train, congratulating, dancing, and laughing with her, but they are the same women who will later go and say her wedding dress wasn't beautiful , and the food served at the reception wasn't enough and the taste was terrible, there will be some who will look for a way to sleep with the bridegroom the same night if given the chance.

After the wedding, they will be wishing her barrenness, they will call her every month to ask '' whats up? when am i going to be an aunty'' in a sweet voice without the innocent woman knowing they are mocking her.

She will finally have a child and because she knows you are a trusted friend and like a sister to her, she will

call you to help with the baby whilst she travels for an official assignment, the ''trusted friend'' will be there  in her  matrimonial home taking care of the baby and sleeping with the husband too.

Oh women! why cant we be happy for each other and stop the hating, some women have been deeply wounded by emotional attacks from women who are trusted friends.

please stop the hating and the jealousy, its demeaning and robs us of the full contribution we could make on ourselves. 

sometimes in our work places, a woman in charge determines another woman is a threat because of her looks or a competitor for her attention for the space she occupies, so she will do anything possible to keep her down or go to the extent of making her loose the job.

ladies, lets be clear, when you choose to hate someone based on their appearance, her family, the car she drives, her job etc, or simply hate someone or rob someone of an opportunity, you expose an insecurity in yourself. Men have a sense of brotherhood, they look out for one other, why cant we do the same?

lets us women stop the hating, the jealousy and celebrate one another, because we women are great and we rock!!!
