Enjoy April


Hello friends, April is here, i think it has come fast. The days roll by as if it's on a roller coaster making us behold the head of the second quarter and the rear of the first quarter of the year in such a short time. As with all plans, you will need to go back and re-evaluate to know whether you are on course of achieving the desired result of the plan or you need to change strategies. So looking back at my plans for this year i realized that my wanting to blog more and aspiring to be a size 12 leaves much to be desired. I am no where near my size 12 and the postings too haven't been regular as i would want them to. Now i am a little skeptical in reiterating the plan but I am still open to the possibility of these happening.

In April the fourth month of the year what normally comes to mind is Easter and what comes to mind next is Kwahu (if you are in Ghana), instead of the death of Jesus Christ ( the reason we celebrate Easter in the first place). Easter is celebrated in remembrance of God loving us so much that He sent Jesus to come  die for you and I. As we go to Kwahu, dine and wine this season let us not forget the idea behind  Easter celebration.

 Enjoy April, i hope you are fufilled this month

Gone too Soon!

The Ghana Black Stars team have freely given away the only good thing that was going on for Ghana. You see the country has been plunged with sequence of shocking news. The one which seems not to go away has been the gargantuan judgment debt Ghana paid to one business man. (Me too I use the word some). Since the story broke, new day brings revised edition of the story and our media has not helped matters with each exaggerating on the part that serves their best interest which unfortunately has sometimes lead to a section of the public being misled. Dictionary meaning has been given to his name, songs composed in his name, lame jokes.

Therefore it was a fresh breath of air when the 28th African Cup of Nations in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea (AFCON) started though I must say the passion and enthusiasm is a far cry from the CAN 2008 and the World cup. The enthusiasm picked up a little after the Ghana - Guinea match and would have reached a higher height had we made it to the finals. But that was not to be as we lost to Zambia in an orchestrated “BX tablets” advert. I am not angry like most Ghanaians are, calling for the retirement of the striker and resignation of the coach. I think we could have done better and I am sad that the only positive thing going on for Ghana had to come to an end all too soon. It kept the politics of insult on our radio stations a little wrapped up. Now I dread to tune in to the radio stations. The news about the judgment debt is set to escalate even more.

It was the only Good thing and it's bad enough to see it end too soon. It was something we could talk about irrespective of one’s political affiliation, religion, gender or age and laugh about in trotro or taxi. It was the only thing that could make you sit in front of a total stranger’s shop and watch the black stars of Ghana play. It was something that could ignite friendship between total strangers because you gave someone a hug after the black stars scored a goal out of excitement.
Now its all ended but lets hope they improve their game in the next competition.

What do you think of Ghana’s defeat to the Chipolopolo of Zambia?

A Fling

You came on to me

It was meant to be a harmless fling

A passing episode, no feelings attached

Just two people spending time together

But when we parted ways that night,


Your face kept popping up in my head, your name in my conversations.

I quickly brushed it aside because it can’t possibly be possible- no questions asked

Then I looked forward to seeing you online and started counting the days to seeing you again

I wanted to relive the moment I spent with you

I turned into a stalker on social networks, reading your posts and comments

Now after all the waiting to see you again, I don’t know how to react when I do see you

I know this is Crazy but hey

Resolutions? Happy new year

Last year was the first of so many things.
It was filled with answered prayers and not so answered prayers, love and tears, it had it's own ups and disappointments.The world heard great news as well as devastating ones. We made mistakes and learned from them, survived and matured.

For this year, I wish you the very best in the year ahead, strive to be a better person, love, smile and take each day at a time allowing God to take center stage of your life (if you are a Christian) if you are not; allow the supreme being of what you believe in to lead you.

I wish you life, health, happiness and a very happy new year.
Resolutions? I wont call them resolutions, sounds cliche, plans sounds better . I am tempted to think the name resolution works against you achieving them. Why do we  make them when we cant keep them? This year, I want to  let my life be consistent with God's plan for me. I would want to blog more and be a size 12 by the end of the year, I am a size 8 now, wish me the best !

Do you make  resolutions why or why not and what do you do to keep them?
