Beheaded

I am in a very cloudy mood right now. I just got to work a while ago from a compulsory errand I had to run. The road wasn’t free to start with and some guys at my back found it pleasurable to place their hands at the back of my seat, disturbing me unnecessarily.

I was so glad to get to my final bus stop. I alighted only to be confronted with an accident. The car somersaulted leaving all the people inside wounded. Apparently it was a family car with 2 kids, their mother, possibly father and a house help. As usual people that gathered around not far away from the scene had fabricated their story in which the man that drove the car (the father of those two frightened female children) dead. My mood went from bad to worse until another person that moved closer to the scene said no one died.

Thank God, I proceeded to the office only to be confronted again with a BEHEADED dog on the way!!! The dog lied in the middle of the road with his head gone, the 4 legs gone as well in a manner that resembled no occurrence of an accident. I was so sad. To think that somebody would have done this to the poor dog!!!

This is not so uncommon as we have a lot of ritualists in our society. Those that would want to perform one cleansing rite or the other or worst still kill human beings especially women by cutting of their private parts and heads for money ritual!!! I am tired. I am sad. I wonder when we will have a good and orderly society where all forms of cruelty to animals and humankind will stop.

Black Women Blow theTrumpet

The day I discovered the "black women blow your trumpet" blog was a very wonderful day for me.

It was very refreshing to see that there is a systa somewhere blogging about serious issues that can lead to more important solutions in the lives of women and their environment. I never regretted my commitment to this "online community" as I would love to call Lisa's blog.

She is currently taking the online discussion to another level by starting an initiative where women would feel free to share what they face in their daily lives and receives counseling that we make them feel better and whole no matter their past crippling experiences while keeping their identity if they choose to.

Blogville, I believe we all have one or 2 things to gain and contribute to black women, blow the trumpet blog. Are we
there yet?

My Day!!!



It’s mi-birthday today. I have got a lot to say but I want to be off to church to say “Thank you” to God first. Then I will expect Charizard. My neighbour, hubby and my friend that stays with us to share drinks with me. If I have my way, I will be in orphanage or old people’s home given out things to them.


Well, it’s mi-30th birthday. And like Victor said at a seminar I attended yesterday where I talked about blogging for business, that it’s a new face, a new beginning and yes, I want to keep imparting and impacting my world. I am happy that I am making a difference, and I will not relent!!!

I wish that I now have my jeep and a comfortable home, but it’s not too late they say…. Let’s step into this new beginning and see what it has to offer….

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU STANDTALL!
