The Craving Mind

10 Comments

Their soul burn with raging fire

so they are consumed in a vacuum.

Craving they cannot control

but accept enthusiastically, thinking it’s a release.

The desires of the galvanizing heart;

death knocks in pitch black;

power of darkness sway in fashion;

In elegance, it persuades for vitality;

Our body is channeled in a style that craving is unavoidable. When you do a soul-searching, you realize there is something you desire so bad… whatever it is; however, it affects your innermost being, depends on the manner you control your hunger for it.

Whether it’s for sex, gambling, food, drugs, liquor, dead iced water, money, material objects no matter what your craving is, don’t be too hard on yourself, the first, second to the most recent generation have been there.

Mine was for alcohol, I took years to break off; it wasn’t an easy journey; I wanted more; I was at that point of no return… I thought I could never check it much less quit, but YES I gave up on it.

However how tough to contain a craving, one most important thing you should know is that, stopping or controlling it won’t kill you. It’s a thing of the mind when you think you can’t stop. It’s harmful to your health depending on the addiction.

Second, remind yourself that God loves you; love yourself… all other solution will surface even without a psychological help.

How do you control your cravings?

Oceanlike Mind Of A Woman

24 Comments

Have you ever sat back and listened to a group of women talking? hmm. Be informed that the mind of a woman is as broad as an ocean- Whereas for some it’s more than that, so guess what women voice out.

Sex positions, foreplay techniques, past sexual experiences, YES, this discussion is not for men alone, you are probably thinking decent women shouldn’t talk about such but be rest assured that women love excitement and are human too. Now let’s move on–Celebrity gossip, clothes & fashion, latest make-up kit in town, men, relationships…..It keeps going on and on…“men don’t even try to get into the minds of women or you get drowned”.

Women sometimes discuss among themselves the concerns of other people, which could be about family issues, intellectual topics, culture, religious matters, food, child bearing…it’s endless!

They talk about anything and everything. While it’s a fact that women like to discuss the topics above, men shouldn’t believe that is all women talk about because this will tag them as being having a shallow view of women-for men like this, connecting to women would be a problem for them, so be open minded while around women.

The female colony like to chat away their excitement, sorrow, joy, new discoveries, one important thing men should know is that WOMEN talk about this things amongst WOMEN. Thread carefully while trying to find your way into thinking that a woman wants to freely discuss this topics with you. When a woman wants to talk to a man, without question and beyond doubts, she wants to discuss about other matters that belong to men’s ears.

Men, women-topics of discussions,regardless of age, height, color…we all love to discuss about things that we feel like talking about, no one should be judged on what they talk about in excitement or what’s on their mind, plus their is freedom of speech.

A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to, matrimony in a moment- Jane Austen.

Stop Running From Your Shadow

8 Comments

In response to this week’s discover challenge –  I would like to share with others a piece of advice I received from someone back in high school.

“Stop running from your shadow”. She called me alone to say just that short sentence to me which I pondered on for a pretty long time without actually accepting the truth behind it.

Back in high school I was someone I would say was POPULAR without a particular reason, I just didn’t get it, I never understood the logic behind my popularity. I was a very simple, level headed lady in school, I loved to be alone but unfortunately for me people loved me, they wanted to be friends with me, they wanted me to lead them, guess what I hated all these with a passion 😏, I felt it was too much of a burden for me to carry, all I wanted was my peace, just a few friends, study and go home to my best friend (Television).

It was that way for me all through my years of studying, and until I got my first job, it was still staring right into my face, people wanted to be like me, listen to me, do as I do, seriously I never understood it. Until I met someone else again who told me to just be myself and face my fears. I sat myself down to review the path of life I had lived and was living, I realized that I had been lucky, I would have lost a lot due to my insecurity and shadow fear 😊😊

Now I can face my fears, I can face responsibilities, I realized I didn’t need to be best of friends with all these people but to be attentive to their feelings, now I talk to them, I listen, I don’t mind if they wish to do as I do, I love making people smile. My colleagues love to dress the way I dress, up to my hairstyle, and really I have more confidence now, I encourage them, I give them tips on dating and fashion, I have also learnt not to take things personally due to my emotions. The benefit of all this is that it has opened doors of opportunities for me. My accepting my shadow has promoted me to an upstanding individual. I’m blessed that it wasn’t too late for me to come to terms with it.

My piece of advice based on my pervious experience is to never run from your shadow.
