Could He be?

Father you made 5'9, beautiful, smart and called me Grace
You knew I would fall for him wise,handsome as soon as I saw his face
Yet I wallow, sigh, grumble and say "when me?"
 But,Why does my heart skip a beat at potential He's?
Why do I constantly ask could He be?

Father I know you are Supreme and you hold all my life plans
So why then do I doubt and shiver at the thought of meeting a  mere man
When you hold the stars, the moon and orbits in your hand
And devils flee each time you take a stand
So,Why does my heart skip a beat at potential He's?
Why do I constantly ask could He be?

Father you see everything. Thieves,gangsters and preachers on earth
You even notice the minutest thing like babies unbirthed
Yet you had time to create Him and put him here
My earthly mind does not comprehend thus keeps asking "where?"
So, why does my heart skip a beat at potential He's?
Why do I constantly ask could He be?

Then I hear your clear voice say" Hush!"
I have it under control it is neither the time or place,
Daughter why the hurry, very soon you shall see his face
The love story story I have written is not just when boy meets girl
But a manisfestation of my love, favour and grace.

P.S -I wrote this ages ago but I edited it before posting it. The first draft needed a lot of work.
I hope this would encourage any girl who ever felt this way.

Steps to Avoid living in your Parent's Basement.

Hello readers! This week I have been concentrating on planning my career... it sounds different but I have come to realize that it is very crucial that everyone goes through this process and the earlier the better. My Dad gave me a book entitled " How to get any Job (or how to avoid living in your parents' basement) written by Donald Asher. Hilarious title right? But, believe me that's not the first funny book title my Dad has ever given me. One time he gave me a book called " Why men marry some women and not others" or something similar of the sort. I can't really remember now :(
Ok, let's go back to the aforementioned book. It is a great book! I am just on the third chapter but I am already blogging about it. This is proof enough.

Here are a few(alot) excercises the author encourages the reader to do as you progress.
1. List down all the schools you have attended, best subjects,community activities,countries you have visited, languages you speak, all the job's your parents and siblings ever had etc.
2.List your first Job ideas. If you wanted to be an astronaut when you were a kid write it down!
3.List your employment fantasies in high school.
4. Career Ideas Post-College.
5.Industries that existed in your neighbourhood when you were a kid.
6. Your College Friends Dream Jobs
7. The 5 issues in the world that bother you most.
8.  The 25 people you admire in the world.
9.   25 things you admire about yourself.
10. What would you do with your life if you won $10million dollars at the lottery.
11. What you would pay to learn (eg. tango or learn chinese)
12. What you think would be the 5 emerging industries in ten years.
13.  What you think are  the 5 Demographic Wave Industries in you country.

So that's it for now the next step is to take some career planning tests. I have done a few and they have been mind boggling but really insightful.  I know it seems a whole lot of work but compared to staying in my Dad's basement.... I DON'T THINK SO!

Is July in a few hours!!

The best month of the year is going to be here in a few months and I'm excited. I know all the people born in other months are hating right now but, take a second and think. Which month gives a holiday on it's very first day??  No other than July..  this and other reasons make this month one of a kind.
These are the reasons why I LOVE(J'AIME,QUIERO&AMO) this month.
1. I was born on this month.
2. My mum was also born on this month three days before my birthday. In fact I was supposed to be born on her birthday but being stubborn I came three days later.
3.This month stands for summer holidays!
4.Well in the west mid July to August is when there are major sales. In Africa everyday is a sale day your negotiation skills determine which percentage you get off.
5. A lot of events happen during this time e.g weddings,parties etc.

P.S it's 22 days to the D-day and I feel already like I'm getting OLD. I'll explain that later ...
