Yes I am an optimist and I really don’t get people who aren’t, especially parents...  I mean you’ve been blessed with the most priceless, precious thing ever... a child/children.  What’s there to be negative about?? Really?

I love my kids so much and I feel so blessed to have them, that I wake up happy everyday and no matter the challenges that  life throws my way... the mere thought of my kids puts a smile on my face.  I pray for them daily and they do the same for me too.

Yes life...

Society has become so sick that it constantly judges... especially mother’s.  If a child is naughty or chooses a wrong unlawful path in life... who does society blame?? The mother!  You always hear things like “Does he not have a mother? Where was the mother? mother this and mother that... 

It has become so bad that mothers are constantly feeling bad about everything.  If you’re a working mom, it’s a bad thing ‘cause you should stay home and raise your kids, never mind that you’...

This is such a delicate topic and I don’t really like to get into it, but it is something that has really been bugging me lately.  I am a God fearing woman, who by all means tries to live a life where I respect and love fellow human beings regardless of their race.  So when someone kills or treats another human being badly simply because of the colour of their skin it puzzles me and it got me thinking...  If more people knew God none of this nonsense would exist... how humanly are you to ha...

So it’s taken me a while to blog about this… simply ‘cause women are so complicated.  It’s a day after Valentines day and it being the month of love it got me thinking about this. So why do women cheat?

There are so many reasons, and I’ll try and cover a few now. The main reason why most women cheat is for emotional needs, women need attention and intimacy from their partners.  If they not getting it from their partners they’ll look for it elsewhere.  Women need ...

People close to me know that I a...

This is a question many women have asked for years and men have given all sorts of explanations as to why they cheat… Some say cause there is just too many beautiful women, or because my woman doesn’t treat me right or lacks certain things etc…

So what if a man has a beautiful woman, who is loyal to him, is a hard worker, educated, intelligent, makes her own money, can cook, is good in bed, is basically the perfect spouse… Why would her man still cheat on her?

I thi...

Of course you are. Personal brands are very important, yet underutilised. Authentic personal brands are more powerful than inauthentic personal brands.  Be true to yourself! 

Your authentic qualities will attract the right people and if they repel some, don’t let that bother you, that is just God protecting you from people and opportunities that are not good for you.  

Get your mind off trying to be something or someone else, and concentrate on just being you. Become your brand. Authentic bra...

You would think after all these years in an apartheid free country things would be better.  You would think that we would all have equal opportunities in life and that the colour of your skin wouldn’t be a determining factor.  Lets face it… race still plays a large role at who gets what and who deserves what.

Will this ever change?  I really don’t see it happening soon… and what can we as ordinary South Africans do to bring upon this change?

I’m s...

Is it really possible to fall in love more than once?  Or do we just try and convince ourselves that we are in love again so that we don’t have to deal or face the fact that we will never be with our true love again.  Is it a way to deal with the pain, the longing of being in that person’s arms again by pretending to be in love again… or is it that once you’ve broken up with someone you miss them so much that you mistake that with love…  What is love???  Does it las...

So a few friends and I had a discussion a couple of days ago about relationships and expectations thereof... It got me thinking...

Many girls stay in relationships for all the wrong reasons and what they ultimately want is marriage... That’s most girls goal in life, and it is something that has been like that for many years, even in these modern times where woman have equal opportunities as their male counterparts, their weakness is still trying to get married at all costs...  Don’t get ...

So a friend of mine broke up with her boyfriend recently and can you believe it... In this day and age... the dude took back all the gifts he bought her... I mean everything, even worn and used things... What an idiot!  I’m sorry, but I just could not believe that guys do things like that, needless to say I’m very proud of my friend, she didn't stoop as low as him and left him with the gifts she bought him and didn't demand anything back.

I believe when you buy someone a gift you doing i...

It breaks my heart to see what is happening in our Country at the moment with all these Xenophobic attacks… since when does anyone have the right to kill people just because they come from a different country?  Have these people forgotten where we come from as a country and the suffering we endured as a nation during apartheid… It saddens me as a South African that our people can behave like this.  Aren't we supposed to be the loving, forgiving, caring nation… 

Are these people ...

Life can be hard and challenging... How you overcome these challenges is what matters most.  The worst hardships one can face is disappointing the people you love... and because we are all only human with flaws... this will happen from time to time.  The people who really truly love and care about you will understand and know that we all make mistakes and most important of all is that we are all very different.  We don’t think and do things the same and for this reason we are always going t...

So someone decided to surprise me with a pair of my dream shoes… yes you've guessed it… a pair of… wait for it… Christian Louboutin's… and they are gorgeous, sexy, perfect!!  The joy I felt is unexplainable, it was soooo intense, and I was filled with all kinds of good emotions.  I love shoes and that's a fact, everybody has their thing… mine is shoes. 

I've always known Louboutin's are special but never did I imagine that they were this powerful.  Everyone has been talking about...

It's that time of the year again... the thing I dread the most about this time of the year is buying Christmas gifts and that's simply 'cause I never know what to buy... and I don't think I'm the only one with this problem.  This got me thinking... and I decided to make a list of awesome gifts to buy...  Hopefully this will help to not get lost in the frenzy of last-minute Christmas shopping.

For Her...
1. Jewelry
2. Handbags
3. Shoes (Christian Louboutin if her name is Gareth... lol)

Over the years I've had many friends or acquaintances in my life, and at a certain point or at the point that they were in my life they played a significant role.  While the friendship is happening you never imagine that it would one day end or fade. It's amazing how we outgrow people or how our life journeys go in different directions, all of a sudden.  I'm sure you have at some point in your life asked yourself..."how was I ever friends with that person?" OMG!! 

The scariest things I've seen...

Last night my team won the Corporate Soccer League... whoop whoop!  It was one of the most exciting games we've played, the guys were unstoppable. I was the crazy woman doing a 100m sprint on the side lines screaming and... coaching the guys of course... lol... The feeling of victory after such an intense game... I must say is an amazing feeling indeed. Which reminds me of a quote I read once "Soccer isn't something that you can fake, its a feeling, a passion, a lifestyle."

So today my blood is boiling... and the reason for this is a soccer match.  Yes it just had to be soccer.  I love soccer so much it’s scary... lol...  So last night our soccer team won a quarter final game fair and square and today I find out our results aren’t listed on the website because the other team filed a complaint.  Not sure how this complaint, that’s only reported today can affect yesterday’s results... surely the issue should’ve been raised during or after the game.

And ...

My sister and I were chatting the other day and she asked me to blog about what to wear on your first date, and that got me thinking...

One of the most famous expressions is “first impressions last” and that is so true, they really do.  So when dressing for your first date always keep that in mind, what you wear on a first date actually matters a whole lot, more than any of us probably want to admit. 

Don’t let your first date attire ruin your chances for a second date. What you wear ...

I love love love shoes!  You don’t have to be a shoes fashionista to find excitement in shoes.  When I see a gorgeous pair of shoes I go crazy, it consumes my mind, all I think about is that shoe and how I’m going to get a pair. 

I don’t know where my shoe obsession started. During high school was the peak of my obsession, I bought shoes every week and some of them just ended up in the closet never to see daylight again. I have so many shoes. I have sneakers, running shoes, formal shoe...

I've been thinking about success, and as for as long as I can remember, I've always wanted to be successful.  As a young child if I was asked what do you want to be when you grow up, my answer was always, "successful" during my beauty pageant days my answer was also always, I want to be successful. So what is success? and am I successful?  For the longest time I used to think being successful is having loads and loads of money and I'm sure that must be what most people think.  The older I got...

I always new I wanted to start a blog, but just never had the time or maybe just never really believed that I could actually do it... So here we go... my very first Blog!  Woo hoo!!  I think a lot of nonsense all day every day and that is why I thought starting a Blog wouldn't be such a bad idea.  So welcome to this exciting journey with me.

I'm crazy, everyone who is close to me always says that and it's true.  The reason why I'm perceived as crazy is 'cause I live my life for me and I do wh...
