Put It In A Love Song...The Love Note

 "Say you love me, say you love me, put it in a love song....."-Alicia Keys featuring Beyoncé

Yea, yea, lack of originality, I know, what is up with the song titles. I can't help it. I'm in love!

Music is my Muse. Actually, it is my first love; my true love; love of my life; I bleed love,(oops, there she goes again);and my everything. Music is my life!

So I guess, I draw a lot of my writing inspiration from songs, and for my life there are so many soundtracks. Right now, I'm in between Coyote Ugly and Burlesque soundtracks.

But music is like that. It has so much power over our lives, and I believe it is the best gift that God ever placed on this earth.

Music has brought us Michael Jackson who bridged the racial gap; empowerment,(born this way);inspiration,(the greatest love of all);affect change,(what's going on);bring nations together,(waka waka) and made us dance,(living la vida loca).

Music is the friend when you are alone, that connection to the divine, breakfast, puts you to bed, gets you dancing like its the end of the world, and of course, the love note.

Yes, I love poetry, chocolates, les fleurs, bling ,and even a phone call, but the thing that really reaches the depths of my soul is Music. 'Say it, show it, prove it....' ,put it in a song, to woo me, talk to me, make peace with me, make me dance, inspire me....yes, a song.

I am probably a combination of a jukebox and  iTunes. And you can tell a person's personality from their taste in music. I am kind of a 'music schizophrenic', but it only shows that I am a well balanced individual, and of course I have a great taste in music.*wink*

Let us all have a beautiful love affair with the one thing that hits you hard, but it wont hurt. It gives you a feeling....that you never felt before.

My good morning,(Smile-Kirk Franklin); inspiration,(Hero-Mariah Carey); conscious song,(Redemption song-Bob Marley); going to bed, (Bed-J Holiday, obvious); relationship ,(Make it work-Ne-yo); and the day when I say 'I do', my wedding song will be..... the song that I would have written.

Actually, my wedding songs are:

For You - Kenny Latimore

You - Jesse Powell

Fall Again - Glenn Lewis

Soulmates - Bethany Pasinawako

And going a bit upbeat, Since I've Been Loving You by Morgan Heritage on the 'Heavenly Riddim',

My point of view is the view of the world that I live in...my world. My world is filled with the sounds of music.

So yes, put it in a love song, or any other song.

P.S: Always write your own love story.(Well in this case, your own song)

Ciao!

Inspired By A Thread

Colour blind is ignorance when all you see is red... ...learn your colours! Oi, you lovely lot! Whaddup, 'ow's it goin'? I’m gettin’ there, innit? Just takin’ me time, you know how it is. A while ago, I scrolled down my timeline, and I came across an interesting thread on X. Actually the responses were wild, but it had me thinking, I would love my readers to share their own experiences. The question was as follows; What was the craziest thing that you've done to investigate a man? Fam, the responses in this thread are worthy of scripts. Don't play with a woman who wants the truth. She has better investigative skills than any intelligence agency. This led me - actually inspired me to share my own personal experiences. My life is so ironical. I like keeping my relationships on the low because my ego can't handle the humiliation if things don't work out. However, drama seems to ensue whenever I decide to allow a male into my space. Of late, I realised that I ...

I'm Every Woman!

"I'm every woman, it's all in me Anything you want done, baby, I'll do it naturally",  I'm Every Woman by Whitney Houston (originally Chaka Khan).... God I miss Whitney! Happy Women's Month, with this article being posted a day after 'International Women's Day'! If there's one group that knows how to own a month, it's definitely WOMEN! Have you checked out all the records released in the past five to seven decades about femaledom? Y'all my playlist is full!  We run the world, we are superwoman, we just wanna have fun and most recently, we are 'Mambokadzi' (Shona for Queen ). It doesn't get any better than that. So what does Women's Day mean to me? With millions of women and allies across the globe celebrating this annual event, this day speaks volumes! It's more than just a day, or month, but a complete revolution dating back to the 1950s, and even centuries before. My experience with this day...

I'm Ready

Por qué me siento así, mi amor? Lo podemos culpar a Cupido!   Bring on the tissues, and a tub of ice cream, and Amarula cream. Cupid really picked on me and not at the best time. And then 'Stupid Cupid' starts playing. Bonjour single ladies! Forgive me for the dramatic entrance, but I feel like a hopelessly enamoured teenager. Remember  le garçon du chocolat ? Oui. Well, what started off as a crush, has developed into more. Could I be in-love? Umm... But I think that the sparks have fizzled out on his end. Throwing myself on the couch.  Why am I this person, though? Am I setting myself up for possibly another heartbreak after recovering from a not so recent one? Like, le garçon du chocolat lives rent free in my mind, and mostly in my dreams. Am I supposed to feel like this actually? Gosh, I feel so embarrassed with my grown self.   So while, I'm manoeuvring through my emotions, let's talk about starting all over again with a renewed perspective. Gather around ladies,...
