Adore you, I do

In love with you I am

My heart and soul is yours to keep

For they serve me no purpose

Without your love in them

Cherish you, I forever will

Desiring you, I always have

Without you I may die

May are out there

To devour you, they will try

But my love, I pledge to you

Time, I will wait

For our fruit to be yet ripe

To consume our love, we will

happy 21st anniversary

My parents celebrated their wedding anniversary a few days ago on the 1^st of Oct. they have been married now for 21 years and mum and dad I say a Happy Anniversary, the whole world wished you well when got married in 1988 and by God’s grace today you have raised a standard, a legacy of love and commitment for your children to follow and so we will.

You the funny thing I like about my parents wedding anniversary is that by calculating from the 1^st of October to the 1^st of July (my birthday) are exactly 9 months. I like to think of it that I was conceived on the wedding night. lol Well I was so waiting to come into this world, huh?

I know many people too haven’t seen the people who birthed them live together in love in one home for many years but today I tell you that it is very possible. Perhaps you didn’t get that but you can change and decide that when you find someone you love you will stay committed to them till death parts you.

Of course my parents aren’t the most perfect people on earth. They have had differences before, I have seen them disagree on so many issues but in order not to make the thing venture into unpleasantries one would have to let go, be it mum or dad. They both may not know it but they have thought me so much about marriage that they can imagine. My parents haven’t really talked to me or any of my siblings about love and marriage and all that but they have shown us how it is done and that is the best example anyone can receive. They have thought me that when I find the woman I love, there will be ups and downs. We can’t runaway when there are bad times and stay when there are good times, that’s not marriage, that’s CONVENIENCE!!! Marriage stays through the thick and the thin, good times and bad times.

Mum and Dad we look forward to celebrating your 50^th wedding Anniversary with both of you still strong and alive, with all your children, great-grandchildren, and the huge family saying ‘well done’, ‘what a leagcy’ and ‘Thank you, God!’ I pray that God Himself who started with you will end with you successfully such that when you go, you’ll be laughing and smiling and people will be crying not because you have departed but because two great repositories of love have gone. We pray strength for the many years ahead. I love you

don't stop what you used to do...keep chasing!

Ok! This one is going to be a fast one. I’m going to be giving you some pointers. Careful you can fall off this ride. Almost everyone, guy, lady, man, woman has been part of the chase before. You’ve either done the chasing or have been chased one way or the other. What is the chase? Have you called someone you loved or someone who you really wanted to go out with, like a thousand times (of course not literally)? You know, someone, some guy, some lady, who always want to be with, you’d call them up all the time, you SMS them all the time, you think about them all the time, you always want to be with that person such that when someone else saw you doing all that you get the person’s attention, they would think you were stalking. Ok! Ok! We haven’t gotten to half-way of this post already and you beginning to think about that person already. Ok, stick with me before you daze again. So I’m not talking about stalking someone. I’m talking about, hmmmmm for lack of a proper word ‘bothering’ your beloved, sort of like bugging them all the time because you like or love them so much.

Ok don’t jump of this ride yet. Let’s go. If you are a guy, remember before your girlfriend or wife became actually your girlfriend and your wife? Remember all the trouble you went through to get their attention first, and you always wanted to hang out with them, had fun all over the place, you bugged her so much that she fell in love with you? Remember the times you’d get up and look at the phone in the morning hoping she left a message or whether there was a missed call from her? Remember when you rushed to her aid anytime she called even if you were busy doing something very important and you’d lie saying that what you were doing wasn’t really important and go to her aid? Remember all the sweet SMS’ you cracked out of your head so you’d be romantic and sweet enough to get her attention? Remember all the times when you go up to her and then all she’d talk about was what had happened to her during the day and then you’d just listen? Remember those times when you were not in a good shape or had a bad day and then she would tell you about how her day was and you’d forget yours for that moment and try to console her if she felt sad or just listen? Remember all those things you put off just to be with her or get her attention, making a lot time to be with her? Remember all those other things you did CHASING after her? Some which she can’t even begin to imagine! Huh? Remember? Well my friend that is the chase! And you have been a part of it, whether you agree or not, it exists! Guys I know how much most of you don’t like admitting chasing but you know it’s true. Before I jump to why I brought all this up let me talk to the ladies for a minute, alright!

Women most of the time like being chased. They admit and like the chase from the guys and they know that too because they always talk about it among themselves. They love to be on the receiving end of all that I mentioned earlier with the guys and what they did but they seem to forget one thing, guys love the chase too. They love being chased by their woman but with guys, ladies be careful, if he is not your man yet you don’t want him to think that even if he stops wanting you, you’d always do. It gives him the edge to misbehave or do pretty much do anything he likes and sometimes not thinking clearly about later consequences. If he’s your man, don’t stop the chase!

Now you all listen, you got into the relationship or marriage you are in because of the chase, the fun, the excitement with calls and SMS’ on end, going out, chatting the night away, and all the others after you consider what you liked in your partner. So I don’t know why the chase has to end when the relationship you desired has come through. Why do people stop the chase? All the fun and excitement? Huh? Can someone tell me why? You stop calling now every second in a day just to say how much you love each other and want to be with each other, you stop hanging out more often, you stop the CHASE! Then you complain that he or she is boring and you can’t do this anymore. Then you start seeing marriage counselors and psychologists and all that (I do admit that some really do need those professionals ) and then you quit the relationship or the marriage. Well, guess what? You decided to do this, because of the chase and the things that fascinated you about each other and all of a sudden you stopped when you had to put more fuel. Keep chasing! Why? Because it takes more fuel, more time, more energy and my girlfriend’s personal favourite, more patience to make the relationship or marriage work. Don’t stop the chase once you are in the relationship! I hope that has gone well And in the course of the relationship, I know one’s fuel may reduce but the other shouldn’t stop the chase, continue chasing until he or she is refueled again and vice versa. Why do you think people stay married for 20, 30, 35 years and they are still happy? They don’t stop the chase. When your man or your woman stops the chase bluntly and he doesn’t chase you anymore, you better start thinking twice after talking to him or her and they wouldn’t budge. I’m serious! :O Very important point, the chase is not done by one person. It’s never one person in a relationship. It’s two! (of course God is a third person but I’m talking but you two, the humans ) Ladies don’t stop chasing your man! Guys don’t stop chasing your woman!

Enjoy the chase people!  Remember the old wild times, huh? Bottom line: be still crazy about your man or woman like you were at the beginning!

I can mention a thousand but the thing is some make my day today, tomorrow they don’t but these two make each day for me a lovely experience- God, my creator and Vida, my girlfriend. I don’t know if there are people in your life who just make your day even when they are rebuking you or loving you. Surely it has always been God first who makes each day beautiful for me. They are the persons if I go through my day without talking to my day is not complete. God is always first, Vida knows that and no-one can take His place. Let’s say there’s a day I haven’t talked to Vida (hmmmmm has that happened before? ) it is a not that easy but I can manage to go through the day but God, I can’t, it is a struggle. A great struggle! It’s like I’m not living, just existing. I feel so empty. I can’t go through my day not talking with God, not even having a thought about God. He is there always for me. He’s always talking to me, directing my every move, every step and every action. A day with my God is a wasted day. As much as possible if I wake up at dawn I talk to him for about 45minutes to an hour thanking Him and asking Him for my day’s agenda. Sometimes He tells me to go further for additional minutes to stay and talk with Him. There have been many times when it’s difficult to get out of bed at dawn so Vida and I pray over the phone to Him. I have tried days without talking to Him, I felt totally useless. I’m saying I couldn’t make it through. Oh trust me the day will surely end and you would have done something but not your best. You might feel ok but deep down you know it is not good enough. Pal, maybe there are some things you can do without including God but trust me it is the best option to include in everything you do. EVERYTHING! He just makes it simpler. Look, you have tried days without God, but I want you to try just one day with God and see the difference. Don’t only put God in the beginning like at dawn or when you get out of bed. Talk with Him through the whole day. “I know God is there and all but I don’t believe I can hear Him speak,” you say. Right now stop reading ok and say a short prayer. Come on! It isn’t difficult. Tell Him if He really speaks, you want to hear me speak to you. Tell Him you can’t go through a day any more without Him but He should open your ears to hear His voice to direct you, not just once but always. Sometimes you don’t need to hear a clear voice (although He speaks in that way too) you have an inner feeling, an intuition, or an open mind concerning something. That will be God directing you. I’ve said it several times, don’t limit God to church and a certain hour, take Him everywhere and talk with Him, on the bus, at school, in the office, the kitchen, the bathroom. You don’t have to close your eyes, just talk to Him. He’s always listening and talking back. It’s now you turn to listen after all the talking. I have come to listen and talk to Him all the time. I’ve made it a habit to talk to Him. When you feel like you can’t go on, you feel it is too difficult, the job is tedious, the problems are weighing you down, what is before you is unknown and rare, you just don’t know what to do, say a prayer to God- talk to Him- anywhere you find yourself. Remember He’s always there. He is there to make life easy for you. Why go so far by yourself and then you lose your energy before you come to Him? Start with Him and take Him along, He can show you a simple and less tedious way to do it. Without God my day is never complete. Someone said, “There’s a God-shaped vacuum in us that nothing else can fill except God.” You probably have everything going for you but still fill unfulfilled, empty…look no further, God is what’s lacking. You either never started with Him or you left Him half way. Either way my friend, it is never late with Him, just talk to Him and say you’re sorry for not taking Him all the way. If you haven’t accepted Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour then you have to, ask someone to direct you. That’s all you need, and that’s what’s lacking. Believe me you’ll fill most fulfilled. Now the second person, you makes each day a lovely experience. Vida’s someone I can’t also go through the day without talking to. She’s my inspiration to continue doing what I do. It doesn’t what goal or aim I present to her, she believes in me and knows I can do it. Onetime she said, “sweetness you can do anything you want to do in this world…” I have written many blog posts and other things because of her. Sometimes it doesn’t have to be any inspirational thing she’d say (as a matter of fact it never is any inspirational thing she says) it is her nature. Every part of her sends a signal of inspiration to me. Sometimes I just need to hear her voice or receive a message then I’m at ease. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t all rosy! We go through difficult times of misunderstandings but we come out as quickly as we go in. You don’t always have to wait for the one at fault to say I’m sorry, you do it. Vida is so quick to say sorry for anything she does. Sometimes I even complain about the number of times she says it in a day. Look pal if you ever wronged someone in any small way, be quick to say sorry and let go. It isn’t worth fighting for a long time, over what? No one really enjoys fighting and quarreling, just that everybody wants to be strong headed and strong hearted waiting for the other to admit fault, so go ahead and admit fault even if it isn’t you. The one who knows he is at fault knows himself, he just can’t admit it so when you accept you’re wrong, over sometime the other person gains respect for you, even if they don’t tell you, they do. I didn’t say stoop so low and be trampled upon, be gracious in admitting you’re wrong. You don’t want to send the wrong signal and say you’re easy to step on and go away. Next time they won’t wait for your apology, they’ll offer it. Then you can talk to them about their behavior and correct it. I can’t go through the day not finding out what’s going around her. It doesn’t matter if it is the minutest detail. I love to wake up in the morning and pick up her call, or give her a call right before I snug out of bed and say good morning and tell her how much I love her and just listen to her. My day sky rockets after hang up. Let’s say my day is gloomy somehow when I wake up, one hello from her turns it all around. Oh boy and then there are times when she just ‘frees her mind’ about me, people and other things to me. There are times when she talks against certain of my actions and behaviours. Hey sometimes it isn’t pleasant coming from my sweet girlfriend but it is better because she won’t lie to me. I’d rather prefer her telling me what I did was wrong or what I’m about to do isn’t the best than someone else because she knows me better. It is straight up front and then she would take her time to advice me meanwhile watching my man ego carefully no wanting to inflate or deflate it such that when I tell you she is 6 months older you won’t believe it when you saw us together. I mean come on! Isn’t far better to have someone who loves you so much and knows you well enough and isn’t afraid of your reactions to tell you in your face when you’re fault? She knows even though it is hard I’ll think about it and accept it. A day without Vida isn’t a lovely and motivating one. Do you have the two people like I do who when they talk to you and tell you know how much they cherish and love you, advice and rebuke you, it doesn’t matter the disaster or obstacle comes to your way, it becomes a walk over? I’m sure you do. Well for me they are God and Vida. They always make each day for me a lovely experience.

Thank you for everything!

Thank YOU! In Jesus’ Name…AMEN!

                        Ever heard of…and they lived happily ever after. Yea you I know u heard! Do you think those things happen in real life? In relationships? In marriages? NOPE! THEY DON’T!  I hope I didn’t wipe the smile across your face. They exist but only in fairy tales. Real life, get in the groove, nothing like that exists…trust me even with Romeo and Juliet, your mum and your dad, your granny and grumpy, your uncle and aunt… and the same with your boyfriend or girlfriend.

                         Relationships are a constant battle, the putting away of our vast differences some call it. I would say the reconciling of those differences. I was brought up differently, you were raised differently. When we love each other so much to be together or just as friends, I have sides you wouldn’t like and you have those I wouldn’t too but appreciating those differences makes our relationship long lasting.

                          Sometimes we would fight over those differences; let’s do it this way, let’s do it that way; let’s go this way, let’s go that way; let’s buy this, let’s buy that. How would you stop making those divisions come? Let me amuse you, you can’t! Those divisions happen, your momma didn’t raise all of us the same, and even with my siblings we are not all the same then imagine your large number of friends. 

                         Most of you know if you’ve been following this blog that I find it hard to get angry. I find it hard, but it doesn’t mean I don’t.  Sometimes I quarrel with my girlfriend, the lovely Vida…prefer to call her Nana…and where was I. Yeah I said we quarrel not so often on things I call petty but guess what those petty things are those that generate into I can’t do this no more…let’s break up..I can’t go on with… People! It doesn’t have to always end up in that and don’t you think your boyfriend or girlfriend will always break up with you because he or she found another person (anyways that’s besides the issue here).   

                Nana and I did something. I don’t know if she still remembers that she said it. Listen to this people! Yoooooo don’t rush me… relax. we agreed that even if we quarreled or we fought it wouldn’t go past a day. By the stroke of midnight we would have probably talked and settled everything. Then sometimes you come and sit down and realize all that we quarreled about was too insignificant. BUT MIND YOU PETTY THINGS BECOME GREAT TROUBLES IF YOU DON’T SETTLE THEM EARLY. NEVER QUARREL OF FIGHT PAST A DAY.  I wish you all the best in your relationship, marriage, etc…

Note: the title is a fist of words…Never fight someone with your fists. Always use words, it’s safer: P

Hello Cousin,

February 1989, the world birthed a fine young man so full of life and energy ready to light up our world but 3^rd March 2009 was too soon for the world to take you away.

The energies I know you carried went far and beyond your areas of jurisdiction, where you physically lived when you were here. Young, brilliant, up and coming you were and I know you were going to give a lot more to the world had it given you a little more time but we’ll remember the moments you shared with us all through your brief life with friends and family.

Some one once said that a man’s life is measured by those who talk more about him when he’s no more. I’m writing to tell you that friends and family all over are talking about you. They talk about the fine man you were, some say they never really had a chance to talk with you but loved your demeanour. Glen trust me when I tell you this you indeed left a big mark in so many people’s life, even those you may not have considered to be friends.

Cousin, friends and family are all mourning your departure and its hard on everyone, your mum and dad, your two lovely sisters and so many friends and families all together. Your departure was so sudden and unexpected that it has left everyone in a state of shock and pain.

Brother I came home this Thursday to help with preparations for grand-pa’s funeral and was told that the reason for which I came home -Aunt Nicole, your mum –to help with making slides for grand-pa’s funeral had rushed back to Canada on hearing of your passing away. I was dumbfounded and couldn’t speak. Glen tears wanted to stroll down my cheeks but I would not let them. Aggrieved and perplexed my state sat there in my seat for minutes that passed me by.

I write to tell you that we all deeply mourn for you and to promise you that we will be strong together as a family for I’m sure that’s what you wish for us now. We tell you that we will be the best in this world because you our brother let big shoes for us to fill in fulfilling what life wouldn’t give you time to.

I promise to remain true and faithful as a brother to your sisters and I promise to do everything in my power, God help me to care for them and watch over them even as you would do if you were here. To your parents I will be as their son and love them as you would. Not to say that anyone could replace you, of course no-one can’t but you being the first grandson of the family we know you will always be there. Whatever good you wanted you do, I will do. Whatever amazing you wanted to see, I will see. Wherever wonderful you wanted to go, I will go.

I pray for one thing that you are in a more peaceful and happier place you deserve to be. We say rest in peace! Opps! Cousin, before I end this letter, everyone wants me to tell you that they love you very much.

P.S. Reply soon…

Your brother & cousin,

Edwin.

This poem here wasn’t written by me…it was written in honour of my grandfather for his funeral.

DEATH IS ONLY A PART OF LIFE

We enter this world

            from “THE GREAT UNKNOWN”

And God gives each SPIRIT

             a form of its own

And endows this form

             with a heart and a soul

To spur man on

            to his ultimate goal…

For all men are born

             to RETURN as they CAME

And birth and death

             are in essence the same

And man is but born

             to die and arise

For beyond this world

             in beauty there lies

The purpose of death

             which is but to gain

LIFE EVERLASTING

             in GOD’S GREAT DOMAIN

And no one need make

             this journey alone

For GOD has promised

              to take care of his own.

Mrs. Helen Steiner Rice

She’s like a pearl you find in muddy waters which on first sight you might not realize and ignore as ‘dirt stone’ in the mud and forever lose the value of a wonderful experience. I always thank God I found her. The way the whole thing happened was…was…:P I’ll let you be the judge of how it started. I can’t find the right words yet.

It was a bit tricky for Vida and I when the issue of relationship came up because she wasn’t really sure I had gotten over my ex-girlfriend. Honestly I knew I really hadn’t and I didn’t really want to get myself involved immediately but I defied all odds and asked her out. I know normally people would claim it as wrong because nearly a month after my ex-girlfriend and I broke up I met Vida. Not to say I hadn’t seen her already? I mean come on she’s in all my classes…we were not that close and if you know me, you would know how easy going I am with people. We were always annoying each other bit by bit.

The climax was when one time when at home for the weekend, I had a message from Vida. Mind you I had never called her before and we never had messaged each other. I had always said I would go and see her when I met her on the campus but never really went. Then I received a message from her saying, “Edwin where are you?” I don’t know why but I got worried. Don’t blame me…:) you probably would have done the same thing. Someone you are not that close to, sends you a message on a Sunday morning asking you where you were? I got worried, I called and there was no answer for several times and that made the whole thing so serious. I got back to campus the same day and went to her place immediately since I still hadn’t had any reply but she wasn’t around. Guess what I found her smiling when I was descending her block. Immediate thought: so as least she’s feeling okay! Of course she was surprised to see me there since I hadn’t gone to her place before and she asked what I… No! I didn’t wait for her to ask, I told her I was just from her place and wanted to find out how she was doing. I escorted her back to her room, she grabbed something of hers and she said she wanted to walk around. She loves walking, amazingly something that I do so often on campus because I never had the time or maybe I hadn’t thought about it.

It’s an amazing walk; we started by annoying each other, rather funny sort of. We always do that! Before anything I asked her what happened and she sent me the message that morning. You know what I vowed never to overreact to any message again. She had just sent the message to verify if I was on campus and wanted to know if I was at the Joint Service. Ohh you should have seen my mind to know what I thought. LOL. From then we sat on what people like to call ‘lovers bench’ and talk the whole night off. I really talked about so many things she couldn’t believe she was telling me but she told me anyways. There’s a lot of opening up and all… that semester I had raised up the topic of going to pray with so many of my female friends, some denied, some just said, they can’t go with me, others, time factor. I asked Vida expecting the same response like the others and she agreed just like that. She didn’t know how we were going to do it but she agreed. I pray on my own almost every night on this field on campus most people go to pray on in the night and I just wanted to make another person prayer conscious, that’s all. After that first night that we TALKED, Vida confessed that she couldn’t believe that I actually came because of the message she sent…and that, it was sweet. Well I went to her place every night and called her to go and pray and up till now all those who know us know we still do. If you actually called around that time I won’t pick up…send a message.. the miraculous thing about us praying was that Vida had pray to God that He should send someone to her to help her get her prayer and spiritual life back on track so… ok ok time to sleep…

To be honest, I hadn’t really gotten over my ex-girlfriend when I asked her out, we both knew that but a strong woman she was, she gave us a chance after careful thought. Say it was the stupid thing to do but I found happiness and true love again and everyday I love her and would die everyday if I had to prove it. ohhh before I forgot we still take the walks and talks always!!!! Te quiero mucho!

True love stands true

True love stands tall

And the heart between two young hearts is boundless

Two hearts that are just beginning their journey of love

Hearts filled with passion and uncertain emotions

Hearts that have been able to stand the strains of distance and time

We cannot promise each other true love forever because we do not know what the future holds for us

Now that we’re together, it’s up to us to let our love be true

Mine is not a love for money, neither is it a love for physical appearance

It is not a love that is for selfish reasons but a love that is from a sincere heart

Mine is a heart that is full of love

A heart that is adventurous but scared of getting hurt

A heart that wants what’s best for you

A heart that just wants to say:

Je t’aime, misumoo bo, mele wo, me do wo

Te quiero mucho mi novio

I simply love you, my darling
