Birthday Reflection

Tuesday was my 33rd my birthday; another year on earth. I thought about it all day and I went over the good things in my life. True I can't afford rent, I'm short of money often, I don't have a job at present and I'm yet to finish my part time course at the University of Lagos; a huge ton of work. But several years ago I was involved in a car accident which killed the driver and I... who sat next to him that day was saved and I was able to celebrate my 21st birthday with my family. Since then, I keep reminding myself I was given another chance by God so I mustn't complain about the stressful times in my life. I'm alive, my first children's books were published in 2006, I still write and I hope my next book and the books that follow will be a very huge success. I have my friends and family, even sweet and friendly ones I chat with via Twitter. Today I thanked God for another year on earth and for everything I have achieved since that fateful day in 2000. Life is a precious gift and we must never take it for granted. When there's life; there's hope and with absolute faith in God; one can achieve just about anything and everything. Which I must remember everyday because one of my worse habits is being a serial worrier; which gives me major migraines.

So I thank God for another birthday; and I pray for many more birthdays so I can serve Him better. He knows more than anyone that I'm not perfect but He's always been there for me. And by His Grace; everything good will come. Amen

CARBO FAN FICTION- Return Journey: Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Bo found himself unable to work; he couldn't get over what Carly told him. Maybe he was crazy but he found himself unable to believe a word of it. This was the same woman who got married to get over him after he’d pushed her away but never gave herself to her husband. The same woman who refused to let him make love to her at the cabin because she wanted more than a roll in the hay. The same woman who never cheated on him during his two long months of captivity or their separation after their botched wedding.

CARBO FAN FICTION- Return Journey: Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Hope looked up from the book she was reading to Ciara, noticing Ciara wasn't responding to the funny voices she was making. ‘What’s the matter?’ she asked.

‘Mummy, is Darcy mad at me?’ Ciara asked, her eyes huge pools of sadness.

‘No sweetie, why would you think that?’ Hope asked, stroking her cheek.

BEST T.V COUPLES OF ALL TIME

I decided not to limit it to just Soaps Operas; my favorite Couples are also from various T.V Series, Sitcoms and Telenovelas. And the huge difference between Soaps and Telenovelas is this- Telenovelas give the viewers EXACTLY what they want; angst between the signature couple but they end up together happily ever after at last; unlike one particular soap I won't bother mentioning. Since I've watched a lot of the three; It took me a long while but I've finally narrowed them down...
