Reflection

For the past two days, I followed Oprah's interview with Whitney Houston on the Hallmark channel. I thought Whitney Houston was very patient to stay in a bad, bad marriage for such a long, long, time simply because she took her marriage vows seriously. The holy matrimony should be taken seriously however the two people in it must take each other with love and respect. In the end, after so many emotional hard knocks, she took the plunge and got herself out of a very toxic relationship. It was a beautiful day when Whitney Houston finally found her real authentic self. She realises that respect is crucial in a relationship and she deserves someone who respects her. Whitney Houston has found her groove back - yeah!!


Wow!!! I had that light bulb moment after watching that interview. We have the potential to survive hard knocks in our lives if we have the faith in God and selves. I thought Whitney Houston is one amazing woman. She has come a long way and has come out of the tunnel stronger and wiser. However, upon reflection, I don't have to look very far for such a woman. I can name a few good women in my life whom I think are truly amazing.


B.B.F is such a woman. I am always amazed by her largesse. She is truly authentic and one beautiful spirit. Thank you B.B.F for being real and for sharing your wisdom with me. I will write about other amazing females in my future blog. So, watch this space.

Stay Tuned

I Am Here

In case you are wondering, yes...I am still standing. I know that it has been a long hiatus since I last put words onto print. I have been busy with work and other stuff. I shall try to write more regularly, after all when I decided to blog, my intentions were to write on the good, the bad and the ugly stuffs that affect me personally.

I was talking to Rx earlier about the possibility of a 'collaboration with a past' but upon reflection, i think she is right. To stir up a hornets' nest is not recommended. I shall bow to her wisdom, after all, she has my best interest at heart. 'The wise will always stay the course' is a good adage for this particular situation. Thanks Rx for your honesty.

There are many interesting moments that I want to share with you dear readers, but they can wait. I am Here, enough said.
