Why you should write your own eulogy ( it’s not what you think )
These past few months, by virtue of being an adult. (And being identified as an adult), I attended funerals with my whole soul, mind and body. What does that even mean ? Well, I now relate to the eventuality of my own mortality and eulogies are a reminder of how I need to live my…

Pieces of me – I overestimated my boundaries
I talk about flying far away from assuming and I fell into the trap myself. I assumed my way into boundaries that weren’t meant for me. I realized I’d kill for people who would never pull a chair out for me. So much is masked in familiarity and history and we mistake all that for…

Pieces of Me #05 – Growing Out of people
I DO NOT regret losing some people in my life, and given the chance to leave, where I left, I would do it again. Think back to a time when you were young, you had a couple of friends in kindergarten, or primary school. Where are they now? If you kept those, that’s beautiful, what…

Looks, Types and Harsh Realities
Touchy subject. But looks matter, subjectively or not. Different people have different preferences but looks absolutely matter. The degree might vary. True? False? Online dating is proof enough, no one swipes at an unattractive picture. And in real life, we tend to favor people who are attractive in any context. Say something got stolen in…

Attachment styles and Your Relationships
‘So, tell me about your childhood’ – our anthem. It seems weird at first but, it’s a necessary foundation. Everything apparently goes back to how we’re raised. I always laughed at how ridiculous that idea sounded then realised how deep our subconscious minds dictate our lives. Talking from experience and those 3am thoughts From personality,…

Pieces of Us #02 – Why I don’t want to get married anytime soon.
Taken from the mind of 20-something adult with enough pressure to make diamonds. Before you start judging me remember that this is my story and I am going to tell it the way I want. It is difficult to express your views about marriage and not receive a backlash or be judged. As I grow…

Pieces of US #00-
I’ve been writing ‘Pieces of Me’ for some time but haven’t had the courage to post some entries. Not because I am afraid but because I am not the gatekeeper of all experiences. We live in a global village, with shared experiences and sometimes our psyches align. We all love, hurt, laugh, smile, cry, hope,…

Baby Mamas, Drama and Aunts’ voices.
Hello, I hope you ate. Keep your water close. I’ll start by saying this. On the other side of a single baby mama is probably a deadbeat waste of existence calling himself ‘the man’. And times, there’s a guy who has no idea what happened but he probably couldn’t stick with the baby mama. (Some…

We need a dating resume!
Hello Humans, You read that right, we need a résumé e to go with the talking phase and whatever comes after. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t have to be something typed out (but that would be cool), but the contents of it matters. I cannot stress how essential this is. Let me explain what…

Menstrual hygiene, Period Sex and Thoughts
Arrrgh! The horror! Hehhehe, grow up men. Evolved men know or want to know everything about their women. Back in the day, women were treated like outcasts because of their periods. It scares me that religiously that same notion is echoed, like damn, women didn’t create themselves and give themselves periods. Men should’ve inherited period…
