Mother and Daughter





I sat on the couch and had mommy sit in between my legs as I did her hair. We sat there laughing talking about different topics and people. I felt so much closer to her, we could discuss different topics and relate with each other on different topics in life. She gave me advice that I will hold dearly to my heart. At that point I was extremely happy she is my mother and I, her daughter.
Moments like this make me enjoy the different stages of life. I remember eleven years ago, I would have been the one sitting between her legs getting my hair done but there would be no real conversation except me saying, "ouch" and her hushing me. As we grew older, that little moment got more intimate and it made me look forward to having a daughter. 
The best part of your child’s life is not when they are cute and adorable and need you for everything. It is when you’ve watched him/her grow up into an admirable young adult, knowing all your sacrifices weren’t in vain and you are now great friends.
I find myself saying I love my mother a lot, it doesn’t matter what wrong she has done to me, all the good greatly outweighs the bad. Today, I look at her in a different light, she’s not just loved because she’s “mommy” but because she is a selfless, loving, amazing and beautiful person right down to her core.

Easy Road to Success/Happiness

Today I realized how the accomplishment of a simple goal can make you feel so wonderful. It doesn't have to be something major as long as it is something you have been wanting to do for a while and for some reason you just kept putting it off. When you finally muster the strength to go and cross that thing off your list you get a sense of relief and happiness. Well, that's what happened to me and I'm 90% sure it will happen to you too. Currently I'm attending University and I'm not working but I always love saving which I usually do out of my weekly allowance. But I find myself not being able to keep my savings for more than 3weeks then it's all gone. I knew that I want my saving to be long term so today I went to the bank and deposited a half of my allowance. It felt so good; and I thought, what if everyday I did something like this, crossing something off my to do list. Eventually, I'll be so in love with this feeling and want to keep accomplishing.

Christianity and Social Networks

On social media, people generally tend to speak of Christianity in a negative light. I've seen persons, for example, a feminist on Twitter, attack Christianity for supporting unequal treatment of the sexes when that is not so. They use the Bible to try and prove their points when the truth is most of these persons when they read the Bible only pick out a few verses and call it a day. They do not study the word of God or go to Bible studies so they can understand God's word the way he intend it to be, neither do they pray for God's assistance in interpreting his word. And why should they? They are not Christians. These people want to disregard and ridicule the word of God and Christianity in general. They use the word of God as a means to an end, which is strengthening their points and invalidating Christianity. We live in a world where people find it easy to glorify sin. Everyone's talking about the music or books that encourages us to make money so we can 'stunt ...

13 Reasons Why You Should Stay Alive

I didn't want to watch '13 Reason Why' until my exams were finished, this was hard to do because everyone on social media was talking about it so I grew more and more curious. One day I was on hall with some friends and one of them asked if we had heard about the show, I was the only one who knew about it. The other two girls started asking questions wanting to know what it's about and before you know it we all grouped together watching episode 9 from her iPhone7.It was so interesting we couldn't stop watching, well I had to leave after episode 11 because I had an interview in a couple of hours, so I needed the sleep. My friends kept watching til episode 13 where the season ended. Needless to say, I was hooked since that night. I needed to know all the reasons why Hannah killed herself and in two days I finished the series. For those of you just hearing about the show I'm going to give you a brief overview of what it's about (without any spoilers, I pro...
