Thank you

I can confidently assert that personally, 2010 has been the best year of my life. A lot of wins, victories in every direction, lots of tears of joy and few loses. I don't know what i have done to deserve any of it. I do understand that there are many people out there with no homes due to recent floodings, I do understand that a lot of innocent and guilty people have been involved in accidents over the Christmas period, some of them have died and some of them are spending the foreseeable future in hospitals. I do know that thousands of divorces occurred this year, millions of hearts were broken, people's futures were destroyed and my cousin passed away.

I do understand however that there are still a lot more to be thankful for, globally that is, for instance, the strong Aussie dollar, and yes people are divorcing daily but almost in the same rate are people getting married, if you weren’t in a flood or involved in any natural disasters you have a lot to be thankful for.

A very popular saying goes, "when there is life there is hope", if all you are left with after 2010 is your life then it’s important you know that you are alive for a reason. If 2010 was good to you, all we can do is give thanks to God because if you're not thankful for the little you have now, you are very unlikely to be thankful for the big things God has in store for you.

Double Identity

By
I once knew of a little girl with such big dreams and wide imagination, Everything she read she willed to being the first time she left the little town of her birth She traveled to a land far away from the troubles that ailed her family from the troubles that ailed her she walked on streets made of gold She traveled to countries that made her heart dance and although she’d never seen them before, in her mind they were familiar no people or race was alien to her but one day she was forced to see she was different she was forced to see her dark skin and hear her heavy accent she was forced to see her afro hair and her religion she was forced to see the shameful past that surrounded her people And although they tried to bury her in shame She destroyed their expectations and blazed a new path for herself.

Forever Love

By
Its almost unimaginable that a person can love you forever and ever, flaws and all. I guess I'm just not that much of an idealist. Its one of those things that sounds almost too good to be true. The love that can never be broken. The devotion that no power, no circumstance can pull apart. The world is full of divorcing couples who vowed "for better or worse" and now, cannot stand the sight of each other. The world is full of mothers who ditch their kids and run, who sexually abuse, prostitute and even murder their children. That was the real world. The world i live in. A life full of hurt, pain, disappointment, uncertainty, hatred and angst. Isn't forever love the kind of love that exists between pets and its owners, children and their parents? Its a much more simple...almost desperate kind of love. It doesn't care so much about what i look like, what my voice sounds like, it doesn't care whether i like toasted sandwich for dinner and KFC chicken for breakfast...

The lady at the counter

I am fuming with rage, anger, resentment, malice...(is there any other word to describe the fire that is threatening to erupt my very being?) I had a pretty rough day today, although this is not the reason i am this provoked. Well why should i? Why would anyone be angry if their youngest brother spends $100 from their credit card despite giving them the permission to spend $23! This matter was solved of course, however, this current state of mind is directed at Australia's retail giant Big W. Technological advancement is at its peak as we all know. In fact, it has gotten so good that I'm toying with the idea of buying me a sexy robot man if ever i become available :). Since Technology has become this unstoppable force, why is it that each time you leave a store, they ask to search your bag. This is the most humiliating aspect of shopping i must confess. I have the most horrible hand bag to look in you see, however, i just love the feeling of walking straight up to security and ...
