Let Go, Let Flow

Hi guys, I know I have been AWOL for a while now, I am taking a break from packing and just posting an impromptu entry. Let's just say I have been busy as hell but it will all soon end on sunday woohoo..sheesh, 3 continents in one week ain't easy hehe. Anyways as I have been globe trotting, I happened to have learned a few things along the way. BUt I thought I'd share the Let Go, Let Flow lesson. There are so many things out there that sound so cliche, but as I get older I am grudgingly admitting that they are true. As I mentioned before, I have been hella stressed the last few months but instead of worrying about it as I usally do, I decided to accept that all that I have been doing is all part of a plan God has for me and to let go and let flow and let him take control. I had a bunch of expenses coming up and Lord knows there was no money entering my bank account. All I know is I knelt down at church on Easter Sunday and just asked God to take control and give me a miracl...

So I have hectic days ahead of me, God help me, but incase I dissapeared, I wanted to share with you a new venture my dear friend is getting into. She makes purses from traditional naija materials, so they have that cultural feel or what I call Cultural Chic :)..Anywhoos, take the time out to peep her designs on the facebook group  Zya Felix :: The Cultured Cosmopolitan   and feel free to contact her for orders at zyafelix@gmail.com. She also does custom orders if you have your own material, also feel free to let everyone you know. In the meantime, enjoy the pics and have a great weekend!

I’m No Fashionista….

I know this is a tad bit long. I apologise in advance.... Okay as I write this, I am writing this because I want to say it out loud. Like an alcoholic admits to being alcoholic, Taynement is admitting that she ain’t no fashionista and doesn’t know if she ever will be and is sorta ok with that. I can’t decide if I am a girly girl or not but all I know is when it comes to fashion/makeup/shoes/accessories etc, I am a work in progress. Anyone who knows me knows how I find shopping, shoes and styling exhausting. It just doesn’t interest me .Let me give you a visual – I am walking with my friend and I guess we pass a shoe sale display and she just gasps, “ooooh, shooesssss”. I don’t even know if I noticed that display sha, I had already past it. Now, if it had been a poster of some musician or a movie or something, I would have drooled. That’s the scenario, I play in my head when I am with my friends and they are drooling, I just imagine the item is a celeb or something lol. Don’t get me wro...

Fear

FEAR v.intr. 1. To be afraid. 2. To be uneasy or apprehensive. Fear is an emotion so silently strong that people don't even realise when it sneaks up on them and is controlling their lives. Fear is what keeps you stagnant because you don't want to fail or it's what pushes you to succeed because you don't want to fail. Fear is what keeps the battered woman with her abusive lover. Even though she calls it love, ultimately it is fear. Fear of being alone or starting over is what causes people to settle in an unhappy relationship. Fear of "the love of my life" leaving me is what makes the too young teenage girl have sex with her boyfriend even when she knows she is not ready. Fear of not being accepted or cool is what makes people do things they normally won't do. Fear of being fat is what leads young girls to anorexia. Fear of sounding stupid is what makes us not speak up when we need to. Fear of rejection is what makes us let tha...

Happy Easter Y'all!

Hi guys, I don't think I remember an easter that I have been excited about. But I took lent seriously this year, so I was excited about Easter. Church was so awesome today so it capped off my Easter excitement. It was Celtic themed, so there were trumpets and drums and Alleluia songs left right and center. The priest today happened to be Nigerian and the tagline/summary of the sermon was as a believer you should know and believe that for every Good Friday that you experience there is an Easter ahead. Basically, for every storm or tough time that you encounter by the Grace of God there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The same Lord who died for our sins will provide comfort in our tough times. Happy Easter once again,Blogsville! Have a good day ahead. ps does anyone remember Easter Monday in Naija where it was west indies carnival day? fun times.

HONESTY ME-MEs

Hellllooooo Bloggers!, Taynement woke up on the right side of the bed and has been in a decent mood all day. I think I finally have the energy to do a MeMe. I am not quite sure what it is sha because I only saw Original Mgbeke's and I deduced that you just pretty much write about yourself so here goes: So I think I am like some dichotomy of myself or something or like my friend said(which made someone who overheard laugh):"maybe you were supposed to be a twin"(by the way the thought of that just freaked me the hell out). But, this is why it's good to know yourself and not base it on people becos you go confuse, lol. I'll give you examples: - I hate meeting new people, I get so nervous hoping I don't say the wrong thing or make a fool of myself or wondering what they are thinking etc BUT I am the girl in a room that will walk up to someone and ask why they are just sitting around. I can't say I am a shy person, I'll say or do whatever my spirit mo...
