Valentine Love




I totally made that word up but give me a chance to explain it to you…
Valentine’s is considered THE day of love; a day when people express and celebrate their love for each other.  Some people don’t buy into the idea feeling like there’s no need to have a day to do something that should actually be done every single day. I actually am for the idea of valentine’s; a day to do something just a little extra.

Valentine’s however present an idea of a ceremonial love, expressing love on specific occasions then going back to a lull, being comfortable and not putting in extra effort. This could be birthdays, holidays… special occasions.

So what really is a valentine love? A love that is inconsistent, absent most of the time, only presented as a gift when it’s convenient… just enough to keep the fire from dying out but not really adding any wood to fuel it.

This kind of love slowly gets toxic and becomes an obsession, an addiction. It’s harder to leave when the droplets of love come in on a ‘valentine’ and one starts second guessing leaving in the hopes that it will get better with time.

The idea of a valentine is okay but living in a valentine love is unhealthy; it’s not how love should be.
So do you get it now… I think I just invented a new legit term 😁

Forbidden Love; Corporate Love

Some people just find the office setup and suits sensual and so they cant be able to resist getting into relationships in the corporate scene. But this relationship is a forbidden love that needs to be fought for. This love is tied down by corporate and ethical policies.  It is so hard to see and be with each other the whole day having to hide how you feel towards each other.                     Boss - Employee When someone's job is to do their best to impress a superior, they go out of their way to be the best at it. It becomes so easy then to develop a connection between the one being impressed and the one doing the best to please the other. Hence they find themselves in a relationship they hadn't even planned for. The downside: The boss has to always try so hard to treat the employee, who doubles as the partner, non-discriminatively. It is just so frustrating. The employee finds it hard to r...

Motherhood is a never ending journey.. once you get on board you can't just decide to alight.. doesn't matter how you got on it in the first place. I know I am personally scared of this journey; from conception to labour to sleepless nights and dealing with rebellion.. Mostly just scared of the pain but motherhood isn't just about pain, it  sure has its equal share of pain and happiness.The pain however is not as a result of doing anything wrong but rather part of the journey. With that said.. I am not a mother, have never been one and probably won't be one anytime soon but I am still allowed to send a message to mothers.. without them none of us would even exist. The ASPIRING  Mother Children look so cute,  just one look at them and you can't stop thinking of holding your own in your hands. You're so eager to be a mother, the idea of having a mini you, feeding, clothing, loving and caring for it, excites you. It's easy to forget the aspect of fami...

Crimes of Passion

Lately, so many cases of partners killing each other have emerged and have become very rampant. Well, it's puzzling, why would anyone want to kill someone they love so dearly.  I've been thinking about it and I have some ideas of what could be causing it. Self esteem When someone has a low opinion about themself they will tend to seek justification from the world to make them feel good about themselves. In a relationship, they will seek justification from their partner and feel that no one else can accept, understand or love them. Their partner determines their worth and without them then they think they're worthless.  This could spring from constant rejection or not getting any attention in the past. So when someone finally loves them or shows them attention, it's like they become glued. In the event of a disagreement or a looming break up, fear kicks in and the partner resorts to killing the partner because they feel without them they are worthless or no one ...
