My bag Meme


Hello and welcome on board the secretlilies ship: Tiyan, Lady Ngo, Free de lulu and Constance. I hope you have a lovely time and feel free to stop by anytime...

So guys back to a new week?
What do u have planned for this week?
Well for me a lot of things. I have a to do list and I hope and pray I do everything on this list of mine: beginning with: going back to my writing.
I haven't written in a long time and I feel like a part of me is dying. I need to pick up my pen and write.... Oh well I am sure I will come around to it.

Naijamuminlondon nominated me for the my bag meme...it's something to do with letting everyone know what's inside your bag... Oh boy...

As much as I loooooooooove bags I don't have a very good one right now. I have been meaning to buy a lovely black bag but haven't come around to doing it...

Anyways this bag is my dream bag. It's from an Italian designer and it cost $2,500. What I will carry in this bag like what I always have in all my bags...

1. A book.... either fiction or none fiction... if it's fiction it has to have romance in it, if not I am not for it...loll..

2. A yarn and a hook...yes I crochet and I am loving it... Make a lot of stuff from yarn. Will soon upload some of my work for sale. Baby clothes, caps, blankets, bibs, sweaters on sale very soon.

3. A book and a pen... yep I am a writer at heart. So I tend to write everywhere I go... Really weird cos I have spotted some people, looking at me in a strange way. Why wouldn't they when I write down things anywhere I go.

4. My phones: " my blackberry for leisure and my Nokia phone for work...

5. I always try to take my make up bag with me but since I never remember to retouch my make up i just stick with the lip gloss.

6. My ATM cards, drivers license, some cash in my wallet...

7. My pashmina in case I go into an office where the A.C. doesn't have a remote control, cos I get cold easily..

8. A little bottle of perfume in my bag, cos I love to smell good at all times..

9. And lastly my sunglasses.....need to get a new one cos I have almost destroyed the old one...

I think that's all I carry in my bag.. And I always have this in my bag.

Anyways join me in serious prayers...I need to get my dream bag soon..loll...

What Will You Do If Your Brother's Fiancee is a Prostitute

Hello guys...saying welcome to the new followers. I hope you have a lovely time here. This is a place where we share our thoughts, feelings and experiences...I HOPE...loll...

Driving past law school around 10pm I saw the night workers all dressed scantily scouting around for customers. I could even spot one or two cars who had stopped, waiting for the girls to come on board after a nice bargain...

I asked myself this question: "what will I do if I found out that the girl my precious brother wanted to marry was once a prostitute?

Honestly I know I will rant and rave and try to frustrate the girl out of my brother's life.
I am sure my mother will drag my brother from one pastor to another so they could cast the demons away
As for my father its a definite " his blood sugar will rise to boiling point...

But then, do I even know why this girl got into prostitution at all?
It's so easy for me to judge when I have never lived in want?
It's so easy for me to condemn when I have never gone hungry, even for an hour.


Even though I rebuke my self, I still am not sure I will let the girl step into my brother's life... and what if to add to the wahala, she can never have children...

ewwooo in this country?
In Africa?
In Nigeria?
That means no son to carry the family name when we all leave this earth.....

For me this is such a tough decision.
That's why I have asked this question, and I will like to know your reaction genuinely...

I know its not our right to judge people but can we help it when it's close to home?

Do have a great day and looking forward to reading your comments.

What do you think of BIG BROTHER

Hello everyone... its a new week.
A new week comes with its own challenges, aspirations, goals new beginnings and miracles..
For me the miracles I see even before I step out of my crib.. I hope you do to.

Now food for thought..
I was flipping through channels and I stumbled upon BIG BROTHER AMPLIFIED..

A lot of questions just popped into my mind LIKE : what do I really think about BIG BROTHER ...
Do I like the show or do I hate?
Do I feel it should be of the air or it should stay on air?
Do I feel that it has some moral values or none whatsoever?


Then I asked myself how will it look: if a married woman were to be a contestant on BIG BROTHER... I know there was a season where one of the contestants was a man married and if I can remember clearly he had an affair or almost did on TV.

What will it be like if there was a married woman there?
Will she loose her marriage as soon as the show is over?
Will she be the first person to be evicted?

According to my friend, she said that : "if she gets on BIG BROTHER she will be known as the christian sister. Every morning she will wake everyone up, for morning devotion... I laughed so hard that I couldn't breathe. I am sure she will definitely be the first person to be evicted...

Anyways these are my random thoughts.
Seriously do tell me what you think about BIG BROTHER AMPLIFIED...

Have a lovely day.
Ciao

Sharing my thoughts

Hi people guess a lot of us in Lagos were grateful for the rain today. For starters I was.
I love the weather after 1 week of excruciating sun. What do you think?
Well around 9am today, some friends and I went to the old people's home in Yaba.. Yes we do have an "old peoples home" in Nigeria. Imagine that...

About 2 weeks ago we had organized a garage sale for them and to the glory of God the sales was fantastic. I couldn't even believe the amount of money we got... There were a lot of things for sales from women shoes to baby clothes to men's clothes..

From the minute we started at 10am till the moment we rounded up by 4pm people came trooping in and purchasing, they were!!!!!!

As promised the proceeds will be used to take care of the old people in the "home".

Trust me its really gratifying when you make a difference in someones lives. The feeling is undesirable...
I urge you to do something to change someone's life today.

Do have a great day and I'm still keeping my fingers crossed: "my secret will soon be unveiled...loll..

Before I say ciao, I will like to say well done and thank you to a special friend of mine Zainab Musa... check out her blog www.zouzousmuses.blogspot.com...

She really is someone one can count out.

Do take care of yourself and have a great weekend.

Ciao

Everyone likes to be recognized

Hello everyone I am so sorry I have been incommunicado for a while. Been busy trying to start a new outfit, looking for cash-flow..loll, anyways will gist you about that later.

I have been reading this book by DALE CAARNEGIE " How to Win Friends & Influence People", and I have learnt that everyone no matter who they are, likes to be recognized, treated with some respect, importance, if you know what I mean.....
Have you notice that as humans we tend to like people who treat us in a special way? And We don't like people who treat us as though we are not important. I will like to share this little story:

"Hall Caine a poor blacksmith's son, loved sonnets and ballets; so he devoured all of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's poetry. He even wrote a lecture chanting the praises of Rossetti's achievements- and sent a copy to Rossetti himself. Rossetti was delighted. "Any young man who has just an exalted opinion of my abilities", Rossetti probably said to himself, " must be brilliant". So Rossetti invited the blacksmith's son to come to London and act as his secretary. That was the turning point in Hall Caine's life, for, in his new position, he met the literary artists of the day. Profiting by their advice and inspired by their encouragement, he launched upon a career that emblazoned his name across the sky.

His home, Greeba castle, on the Isle of Man, became a Mecca for tourists from the far corners of the world, and he left a multimillion dollar estate. Yet who knows he might have died poor and unknown had he not written an essay expressing his admiration for a famous man.

Have you noticed how people become more welcoming when you genuinely flatter them. Like i saw a friend of mine today and I loved his yellow shirt, by a Nigerian designer NACK. I told him genuinely that I loved his shirt. You will not believe this he is now a prospective client. HMM he may never have considered doing business with me, if I had just said "hi and walked away".

The life of many a person could probably be changed if only someone would make him feel important"

N/B: Try making someone feel important this week. Genuinely be interested in the next person by your side. Compliment their hair, their clothes, the way they smile, their output at work and see how they will react.

Do have a nice week and make the most of it.
Ciao bellas...

A TRUE LOVE STORY

Hello guys how r u? I have missed you guys so much. I can't imagine how someone can get addicted to blogging... and I am loving every bit of it.
Today I will like to write a love story I read a while ago. This story is so dear to my heart as I am a romantic at heart.


A boy and a girl where speeding down down a road on a motor bike..

Girl: " I'm scared please slow down?
Boy: " No , this is fun!"
Girl: " No its not. Slow down
Boy: " Then tell me you love me!
Girl: " Fine, I love you. Slow down.
Boy: " Now give me a big hug?

the girl hugged him.

Boy: " Can you take my helmet off and put it on yourself. Its bugging me.
the girl does so.

Girl: " alright slow down.
Boy: " I love you babe.

In the paper the next day a motorcycle had crashed into a building because of brake failure. Two people were on it, but only one survived. The truth was that halfway down the road, the guy realized that his brakes broke but he didn't want to let her know, instead he had her say she loved him and felt her hug one last time. Then he had her wear his helmet so that she would live even though it meant he would die.

Everyone deserves someone who would love them that much.

I hope you find your "Someone".

Do have a lovely day.

PS. " don't forget to grab a copy of Myne Whitman's novel " A LOVE REKINDLED".

Ciao.
