Something to Rant about 😇 (Resolution)


The year is slowly coming to an end, its few days  to 2019 and we all will be going about our new year resolutions,  again! 😕

Its a regular for some, but not for me anymore. I stopped the resolution thing some years back, say about three-four years ago. You ask why?, I got tired, it became exhausting, became a tedious work, a project I almost never accomplished.

I congratulate you all who make resolutions every year and actually stick to it, you guys are the real super man! 😇

Its a good thing to make a plan, you know make a list of the things you intend to achieve, a list of habits you want to stop, and so many other things you have piled up for you, its a good thing please.

The problem I have with people who do resolution's are those who actually wait till the eve before the New year or wait till the new year day. My analysis has shown that 75% of people make new year resolutions only on habits they do not intend to take with them to the next year. Not resolutions on bigger plans for the future, it always has to be a habit. 😢

Does a particular habit stop one from making plans for the future? I really do want to be clear on this. Please?

I am of the opinion that everyday is a new day, resolutions shouldn't wait a 365 or 366 before its called a new resolution, and resolutions shouldn't be full of wanting to stop bad habits alone, a resolution should contain a list of the things you want in life; an improvement, a project, a dream come true, etcetera etcetera and okay, a bad habit you intend to stop (...seems like resolutions are never complete without that, so there you go, I spelt it out 😒)

I also think resolutions should have a life span, say three months for short term, six months for medium term and twelve to fourteen months for extreme cases (maybe a diehard habit or a business project). Time your resolutions, I think it makes achieving them even faster so you can move on to other things and other programmes.

So fam, can we just not wait till its the end of the year for a new resolution? Can we actually create a task-list and tick off every achievement we make, I think it makes things easier, we can move forward faster with that.

Resolute everyday if you can, could be immediate resolutions like the 'na-na-na' typa thing.

Today, make a resolution to resolute when its necessary, important and urgent, just like I've made a resolution to blog my thoughts more often.

Birthday Butterflies

 It's few weeks to my birthday, and I've got butterflies in my tummy. I know, I understand this feeling, it happens, at everytime my birthday came running. I remember I use to write stuff a day before my day, a recount of what the year had been for me, outlining my good and bad times, putting into words my beautiful moments and sometimes, just crying half way through... (Sneak peek: never keep a diary if all you record is your sad moments) Phew! The feeling of getting older is real, mixed feelings here and there, anxiety, sober reflections, and yunno, thinking about things I didn't get in the end. Today, I'm penning down my thoughts, I want to talk about a few things, how getting old feels to me, but again, I have tears tingling in my eyes, because, somehow, I have lost out on a lot of things, things I wish I had... Life just makes you feel unsatisfied, but I have learned to be contented, and bask in the euphoria that I can't have everything I wish for, not to sound

Something to Rant about (Don't break true friendship)

This is for my friend Pharez 😢 I lost Pharez sometime between February and March. I didn't find out about his death till December. And when I found out he died, I couldn't fight back tears, where was I all through the months that passed by. What was I doing, did I stop caring or did I not care at all? Pharez and I shared four years of friendship. He always reached out to me, ALWAYS. Wanting to know how I was faring, if I was okay, if I needed help on something, he was everything a true friend should be. He cared so much his brother thought we had something going on between us, but no, we were just friends, just good friends. I got a nick name too, AdaPharez. The last time I lost contact with him, he had left the country to somewhere not too far away, can't remember the country now, so his lines weren't going through. When he came back, he reached out to me, told me he travelled and needed some alone time to fix things, I understood, we all need some alone time so

What I think of Feminism when I'm alone

 When I tell people I am not a 'feminist', they go 'you can't be serious' on me 😂. I have a very small circle, my circle knows how much I try to work hard and try many other stuffs too. So with that, the 'she must be a feminist' becomes the line on everyone's lips. I. Am. Not. A. Feminist. I am first human before anything else, and I've grown into the understanding that I have a right to my choice, not yours or any others but mine, my own choice. Right to make my own decisions and live by them. I am a woman who will gun for everything that pleases her. How people see this as being a feministic nature is something I don't understand. I understand women have been put in places where they shouldn't be, that we have been placed below the belt, that our strength has been undermined and our lights dimmed because we are women. I also understand that the surrounding in which I am raised see's women as weaker vessels, that we shouldn&
