Without Him......Merrry Christmas!!



I’ve actually not sat down or imagine that one day – I won’t celebrate or speak to my Dad on Christmas day. This is the first Christmas I’m going to experience this. I’m not making a fuss about it but for me it resonate that life is full of surprises (good or bad).

I’m going to miss my Dad tomorrow – his presence or his voice but I’m fully persuaded that someday I’ll see him again. I’m concern about my mum because her husband and companion won't be available to spend this time with her.

Christmas means different thing to people, I briefly read on bbc.co.uk (have your say) asking the question what does Christmas mean to you – you’ll shocked what people are saying.

Personally, Christmas is about my risen SAVIOUR and LORD - JESUS CHRIST’s birthday celebration. It’s a time for me to reflect and demonstrate the purpose he came to this world – LOVE – John 3:16. It epitomizes GRACE and MERCY!!

I’m going to encourage you to enjoy every bit the season with strangers, love ones, unloved ones and yourself.

You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pow………Christmas is here!!

I’m wishing you a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!


Thanks for stopping by. Love you all x

Let Go.....

This story made me think about how life, relationship and love can be interesting. Have you ever wondered letting go of something you love or cherish so much? Have you found yourself in a relationship that you really want to be in but you know you’re not good enough and because you’re not good enough the only option left for you is to let go of that relationship. I’m talking about relationship in the “context” of human - marriage, family, work, things, place, memories etc.

I’m sitting out looking outside the window as I write this post and flood of memories good and bad springing up in me (indicating my relationships). I know I’ve and still having my fair share of what I just describe above but I believe one of my driving force is ME – I choose to move or press on!

Few days ago, I heard about moving or pressing on – forgetting the past. I tweet about forgetting the past and pressing on – indeed some of us need to check ourselves and examine what we’re holding or letting off from our grip. Right in the middle of reading the story of Anita and Dan, I quietly whispered to myself, I won’t judge her but praise her bravery because loving someone or thing involves responsibilities and resources.

I believe one of the ways you can be truthful to yourself about relationship and love is when you get to the point of accepting the responsibilities and releasing the resources needed to facilitate the relationship either you’re holding back or freely giving – for me that’s when you’ll truly give an honest appraisal of where you’re in the relationship!

I’ve a Love book – okay now don’t have a go at me because I’ve a Love book (disclaimer). I don’t go about with any Love book…..I don’t okay LOL. One of the quotes in the book “Love is waking up in the night with a sick child and not a healthy adult”

This quote makes some meaning to me now. Have you ever wonder something making meaning to you probably after some months or years you heard or experienced it? I believe Love and Relationship deserves our attention and whenever we find ourselves - let hope for the best and if it doesn’t work out they way we envisage – let ensure we do our best at that given time and minimize the regrets or feeling of disappointment – hold the memories for the time and let go when it’s due.

I don’t know what I’ve just written but I believe as you read the story of
Anita and Dan – you can learn a thing or two from it – hope would add-value to your life!

Please leave me your comments – I enjoy reading them. Thanks for stopping and reading my blog!!
