At first glance, I seem quiet. After a while, you might think I'm just a plain snob but those who are close to me know I can be funny, witty, smart, inspiring, innovative and lovable. My family thinks I'm a super mom and a tireless wife. Size me up by any means necessary; it doesn't change who I was born to be. Writing is my passion. It's the best way I know to express myself and pass across my learnings in life and of life. By writing, I hope to create awareness, bring inspiration and encouragement and change the world, making it a better place from everyone. I hope you stick around and find my posts helpful in some ways. Otherwise, let's rub minds. Send me a mail @ buki.alamu@gmail.com
Disappointment is far from him who has no expectations
Maybe even heartbroken in the way certain disappointments hit.
Just like a bad thought in the middle of a sermon,
Like a bad taste in the mouth,
You taste it,
You spit it out,
You wash out your mouth,
And throw in a mint for fresh breath. … More No Expectations
They say some people spend their lives never knowing love. The kind you never want to lose. And if you do, you should to be grateful that you once experienced something beautiful most people spend their whole lives never experiencing. Like in the lyrics of Alicia Keys. They say you can only ever truly love … More Saved the Last Dance
When you think about what turns you on, and what attracts you to other people, what comes to mind? While most people will automatically have their mind turn to the way someone makes you laugh, or because they are down to earth, bla bla bla, there are those who do not focus on those components … More Sex Labels
She won’t settle for being carried on someone’s back, if she can crawl or use her teeth to get to the finish line. She sounds scary, but she’s just a regular girl who wants to actively participate in her journey to become an independent woman. This is somewhat a part two to my last article … More Dating a Fiercely Independent Woman
An independent woman is someone who knows what she wants, and never relies on anyone to finish the job for her. She is a formidable person who doesn’t allow the men in her life to take over her decisions. She’s tough, but that’s only because she knows it’s the only way she can make a … More A Window into the life of an Independent Woman
As we were – youthful, vulnerable, spontaneous, adventurous – the world should have stood still and time should have remained indiscreet. If walls could talk, truly, they would remind you of the love that was true. They would remind you of how safe I felt in your arms and how happy I was in ecstasy, … More Miles away
For most women labor hurts a lot, but not only can your heart take it, so can the rest of your body. You’re going to be fine! Just hang on a little tighter, encourage yourself by any means possible. Eventually, when a woman holds her baby in her arms, all of the pain doesn’t matter anymore. When you get to the light after the dark tunnel, all of the hurt won’t matter anymore! … More Like a woman in child labor
Raising children would probably be the most tasking responsibility parents have. It’s easy to give instructions to guide them and maybe even spank them when they fail to follow your instructions. Being the example the children need isn’t always as easy as, “You are only allowed 30 minutes on your phone daily”, or “You are allowed on 1 hour with TV on school days”, or “You should be in bed by 8:30 pm on school days”. … More Encouraging Children: Boundaries in Freedom
I put up happy faces and bright smiles
And they are all just pushing you even further away
It’s gotten more difficult too because of the crowd I now find myself
And I don’t know any more how to get to you
Because you are unable to feel me and all the things inside … More My Smiley Face
When does love turn to hate?
How is strength measured?
Who decides the manifestations of love and hate?
How do you measure strength and weakness?
Till they are all masked, explained with cause, how do you decipher?
When does the line begin and where does it end? … More Falling Lines
