Winter ABC Day 29: Dear Reader

This is actually nerve wrecking because I'm not sure who's reading this. With just one day towards the finish line, why not write.

Dear Reader

You are the inspiration to my keyboard
You read, comment and share my blog
I am ever grateful for your support
More so in this season
Winter has come and a challenge was thrown in
To blog every single day of June
I accepted the challenge to move from procrastination to action
This has been a very challenging race
But as a spectator, you cheered me on
You even gave me a bottle of water to drink when I felt exhausted
You have been my biggest cheerleader
Every day has come with a different topic
Some topics challenged my range as a writer
Whilst others felt right at home
I had to research statistics and information
I had to make writing a blog post my priority
You reading every post has kept me going
I thank you as I take the final strides towards the finish line
It is with hope that this relationship that we have embarked in will continue
Keep following My Point of View

Yours truly

Lady E

P.S. Always write your own love story!

Ciao!

Lady E

Before We Lay

“Every father bears a fundamental obligation to do right by their children,” - Barack Obama With the hype and quotes around Michelle Obama’s book, ‘Becoming’, Barack seems to be the ‘ideal man’. Of course he is only human and bound to err, but for purposes of this discussion, his quotes are a point of reference. We live in an age of great access to information whether negative or positive. We are also in a space for more conversation about sexual liberation. In a previous post, I shared about the modern woman owning her sexuality. And I still stand firmly by that stance, because ownership of one’s sexuality also reflects upon other areas of their life. That point was also touched on, when I discussed about celibacy. The point is that we are in charge of what mostly happens in our lives based on our ‘choices’. Part of choice is being responsible and accountable. Responsibility isn’t fun to be honest but it’s necessary especially for maturity. In other parts of our liv...

Like A Love Song

The best ever written love song isn't perfect but it works! 'I,I love you like a love song baby,I,I love you like a love song,babe.....',young Selena Gomez singing,and vocalising what we would all take love as...a LOVE song. The love song. Women can only dream about being loved the way Gerald Levert put it,'made to love you', or have 'this love' a la Donell Jones. And I'm not talking about the exaggerated 'catching of grenades','crossing oceans',drinking of lovers' bath waters.But a love that leaves one gasping for air as they try to breathe in,a love that gives one warm fuzzy feelings inside.A love that also stands the test of time,and conquers all. But is the impression we are given by love songs similar to real relationships?Would a man not want to be 'mad' like Ne-yo, or beg you to 'stay' like Tyrese? Some may agree,whilst others would be at the other end of the pole. In the mean time men might find Beyonc...

Script My Life: Disney Princesses

"If you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew." — Pocahontas I have so many fond memories of my dad. He was like so super cool.And he was encouraging too.He always told us that we could do anything in this world and the sky was the limit to who we could be.The constant reminder I have is that he told me that I was a princess.Not just his,but a real princess.(And I do not doubt that the least bit.)-The Makings Of A Queen It is almost every girl's dream to be a princess,and better yet,to get married to a prince.Two world famous ordinary girls who got that wish are, Princess Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, who got married to the heir to the British throne, Prince William; and Princess Charlene, a former South African Olympic swimmer, who got married to Prince Albert of Monaco. Lucky girls! (Don't you just hate them?). I'm all green with envy. Talking about green, how many of you were excited about the first black Disney pr...

Trends

Trends 'That is like so last year!',if I hear that statement one more time,I'm going to slap somebody.(sic!).It is an interesting human condition though,to conform.(More like mental enslavement). If one is not doing,or thinking,or behaving the way the mass population is,then they are 'uncool','weird',or 'backward'(so 2000 and late).It seems that the human race spends most of their lifetime trying to clone themselves into the other 7billion people on this planet. I used to be one of those people,until I realised that no matter what I do,I will never fit in or be like everyone.(Which I am now okay with,for as long as I make my mark on the world). Trends.Fashion,music,lifestyle,politics,technology,everything has a trend.Remember how there were records,then tapes,then cds,now you can get all your music on your ipod,or memory card. With hairdos,there was the afro,then jerry curl,(MJ rocked that one best),braids,then guys either tinted their hair...

Script My Life: Jane the Virgin Season Finale

Every telenovela has to come to an end... ...but with a happy ending! *Warning spoiler alert!* Mios dios! I dramatically cried as Jane and Rafael were enjoying the sunset on their wedding day. Jane  explains the ending of her novel, which is turned into a telenovela. And the typewriter writes, 'THE END'. I now understand my friend's sadness over the finale of this cheesy, yet addictive television series. I have always been a fan of soap operas. I religiously watched South African soapies during my nursing school days. And then when I became a stay-at-home mum, I added the American and Phillipino soapies to the list. When DSTv then introduced a channel for Spanish soapies known as novelas, I was gone. The thing with novelas or telenovelas, is that they amplify the usual soapie drama. The male characters are sexy even as villains and the female characters are over the top. Unlike a soapie like Days of Our Lives or Generations, telenovelas have a time frame. Like w...
