Relationship is one topic that would never seize being on the lips of everyone. We literally live and breathe different types of relationships, however for the ‘’Being Single’’ series, we are concentrating on the man and woman love relationship. When it comes to the singles, you almost hear many say ‘’It’s OK to be single’’. As much as this sounds very comforting, how easy is it really to be single and truly ‘’OK’’. There are really so many challenges that we bottle up because no one wants to be judged or seen as weak  The holy book quoted that God said during creation that it’s not good for Man to be alone and He made him a help mate. Therefore, its not good that either man or woman be alone. Now the puzzle is how OK is it for anyone to be ALONE. ‘’Being Single’’ series was born out of my passion to tell my story and really tell it all so I can impact others through my experiences. I profiled my story first and I felt ready to start (as I've been working on this se...

I usually wake up at 4am on weekdays and 7am on Saturdays and Sundays. This routine is majorly my routine on weekdays (Perhaps I’ll share my routine for weekends. At 4am when I wake up, I conveniently turn off the alarm clock and think for few seconds if I really have to wake up at that time. I finally get off the bed at 4:03am PRAY/MEDITATE I say my morning prayers and mediate. I also declare some already written down self-affirmations and after that I drink two cups of water. This usually lasts between 4:03am and 4:30am. At this time everywhere is pretty quiet and concentration is at its peak WORK I usually write down my to-do list for the next day just before I go to bed and also choose a blog topic if I’m supposed to post the next day. Between 4:30 through 5:30am, I publish on the blog over a cup of coffee. As soon as I’m done with editing and publishing, I prep for my workout and respond to emails that needs urgent attention or response. EXERCISE I love ...

Its a new year and the struggle to keep up with new year resolutions is real (I personally I'm not a new year resolution kind of person and I'm sure going to talk about that before the end of January). We all know that the morning is one time of the day we are most productive, so I decided to share some healthy habits to imbibe this year and the rest of your life to help you achieve your goals and more importantly become a better person.  Never snooze the alarm button . If you are meant to wake up at 5am, do not indulge by snoozing for another five or ten minutes. That little snooze disrupts your morning routine and ends up being a 30 minutes or one hour sleep in.  Pray/Meditate . Don't forget to start the day with God. Drink at least two glasses of water . If you want to fill your system with a gallon of water, be my guest however I advice two glasses of water to help cleanse your system and get your body ready for the day.  Stay OFF your phone/Social media ...

Have you ever licked your lips and that immediate reaction of squeezing your face and muttering "Hell no, that's some dry chapped lips" hits you? Well it's the dry season here in Nigeria and one has to constantly carry a lip gloss around. Even with the constant moisturising of the lips it still gets dry real quick hence you need to exfoliate your lips at least twice a week to keep it soft and (kissable). Ingredients Grounded sugar (1 cup): Sugar is a good humectant hence it keeps the lips hydrated and it's also an excellent exfoliant. Lemon (1): Lightens the lips because of it's high vitamin c content Honey (1 dessert spoon): Softens the lips Oats: (1 dessert spoon): Rich in antioxidants and helps reduce the grainy effect of the sugar granules. Method of application Mix all ingredients in a bowl and scrub lips with it. Wash off with warm water and apply gloss on lips. This mixture can be used six more times. Store in a refrigerator after firs...

Depths fail the word to describe the mind As deep as the ocean yet filled with treasures unimaginable Filled with thoughts, worries, faith, beliefs, regrets, memories and pains. The face never shows the turbulence of the ocean within Neither does it answer questions of uncertainty that is etched on the worry lines on the face. We choose not to speak sometimes yet we may be consumed with the battle of what drowns and what stays afloat. Doom knocks when faith is defeated and has stayed drowned for a long time Feed the mind and by all means allow faith and hope stay afloat. My mind my treasure. K'thoughts

Towards the end of last year, precisely in October. I was chatting with a friend of mine who told me about his colleague at work. The girl in question was in a relationship with this guy and almost every one knew they were an item and they really gave them those ''relationship goals''. After two years of dating and even planning on settling down together, the girl found out he got married from some random Instagram post after she had just seen him three days ago. News went round that the guy had been dating the present wife and also dating her. The girl broke down and for two months she couldn't go to work.  Months after her recovery she started seeking means to contact the guy. Apparently the guy had blocked her number and also blocked her from all his social media accounts. During one of her numerous phone calls to mutual friends asking for his number, one of them asked her why she still wanted to contact the guy. She simply told him she wanted to know wh...

The holiday is over and so many junks had been consumed and there isn't any excuse any more for either over eating or drinking. Its time to give the body a break and help it get rid of all the accumulated toxins from the holidays winning and dinning.  We all know how important detoxing is. It's a healthy way to kick start the year too. I personally see it as a clean start and a way to get my body's metabolism back on track. So here are my three favourite types of detox. THE GREEN LEAFY VEGETABLE DETOX JUICE.  This is made up of whole green leafy vegetables and green fruits. The method of preparation is pretty simple. Ingredients : Cabbage, kale, cucumber, spinach, green apples, broccoli . Method of preparation : Wash all vegetables and fruit. Then cut into tiny bits and blend. NB: It's quite filling and usually not tasty, therefore you can add lemon juice to it just to make it more tasty. You can drink this smoothie the whole day. Benefits : It i...
