He Keeps Me Awake Part II
Last year during #UgBloggers7days challenge I shared a chapter – He Keeps Me Awake – from a book I was writing. The book had since moved forward slowly by slowly and was almost done but I halted it. It was going to be a 30 paged love story written for my babies and would be house guests in…
Why Do Parents Do this?

Giving is sharing – Thank you my online community. #TweetHelpForTweeps
Let me begin this blog with this inspiration quote… Now my testimony. When I was mugged and robbed that warm Saturday night that still haunts and horrifies me, the person who picked me and dropped home from the road side knew me from Facebook. Hello Ocan Brian. When I had no idea what to do after…
A Love Letter To Black Women
Every now and then, I go into my ‘well’ and look for encouragement, advise, praises and motivation messages that were sent to me over the years. Today I was looking for a quote I read in one of those messages and I landed on the love letter below, that was sent to me by a…
The Love Of My Life Is a Woman
I have been reading love letters on Muwado and I got inspired to write my own – not a letter but a poem. It looks like I am more into poems this month than telling stories. Anyway here goes everything – anything – nothing – all things; The Love of my life is a woman. The…
Poem: My S to the N
Sailing on waters, unknown. Scared as hell, drown. Soaring on the promise, my own. Secret to the heart, sown. Silence and solitude far away, frown. Simple destination, shown.
What is the Topic?
‘What should I write about today?’ I kept on asking me-self. I even slept for an hour, went and watched Ninja Turtle in 3D at Cinema Magic, brought pizza just to get inspired. This blog challenge is not as easy as I thought it would be… it seems like I can’t wait for Sunday to reach…

Stop Squeezing Your Brain Over Love
Love. It is not something that can be grown. It sparks at the most unexpected moment. One who loves would naturally find himself thinking about her all the time, wanting to furnish her with everything she sets her eyes on, whatever it takes. When she cries, your heart feels as if it is being slashed…

Practice Appreciation
Appreciating someone is not that difficult, all one needs is to remember to express it when an opportunity arises. But how many of us remember to do so? Most of us only remember the negative things that we even tend to blow out of proportion. What is Appreciation? According to Voltaire, “Appreciation is a wonderful…
