Note: Love!


We are love! 
Love should lead the way 
Without love we are lost souls, 
angry souls, 
misguided souls. 
Let love be the guide to how we listen, 
how we speak, 
how we respond, 
how we get angry, 
how we complain.
If love be the foundation of our existence we will not go wrong! 
Power to love and all it’s energies. 
Love!

P.S I love writing little notes; in my daily planner, note book, pieces of paper - just to capture a moment I'm in. This note was written on 11 April 2011, it was a Monday morning! I was emotionally crippled and soon as I penned this - I had a lovely, productive day. Such is my life!

The Curious Case of Pinky Pinky: The Toilet Tokoloshe

There was once a Tokoloshe, her name was Pinky Pinky – she lived in the girls’ school toilets, sang a song that introduced her and told you about her parents. She’d then end the song by demanding you give her something. Thanks to Pinky Pinky, her choice of location and her singing – I've yet to feel completely comfortable using public toilets. I first heard about Pinky Pinky when I was in Sub A (now known as Grade 1). She terrorized girls my age, demanding money or (as I recently heard) stole their panties. I think she’d also want whatever pink item you had on you. If you couldn't give in to Pinky Pinky’s demands – you were in big trouble. I don’t remember the details of what she’d do to you but what I knew is that it would be painful. Pinky Pinky was so dangerous she even made it into a national newspaper – although they used a blurry picture. There were different stories told about how she looked – none mentioned a beautiful creature. Her looks were things horror mo...

Book Review: Are You David or Goliath?

Ever stopped yourself from working on a dream because you thought you were not ready or it was too big for you to put together? We sometime convince ourselves that we are not skilled, educated or experienced enough to attempt going after ideas or opportunities close to our hearts.  Malcolm Gladwell , addresses this very mind-set in his book, David and Goliath, Underdogs, Misfits and the Art of Battling Giants .  Throughout the book references the lives of game changers to make the point that we can be who or what we want to be – or at least try, regardless of our so-called weaknesses. As I read this book I recalled many times in my life that I backed down on an opportunity because I believed it was meant for someone from a better school, a higher education or more experience. In those moments I discounted the fact that I was passionate about those subjects or would enjoy the challenge of learning about a field I was curious about. “The powerful and the stro...

Book Review: Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother

I am a mom to a toddler and in the three years of parenting - I can confidently say - I do not know what I am doing. My mission since deciding to become a parent has been to research as much as possible about different parenting styles and therefore work on developing mine. I first read Amy Chua's Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother when I was still toying with the idea of parenting 9-years-ago. I was fascinated by what she described as the Chinese method of parenting and raising high performance children. The question I had then, and the question I am left with today after rereading the book is: is my duty as a parent only to mold my child into a high performing person by any means necessary?  Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is highly capturing, funny and filled with cringe moments. Chua goes into details on what motivated her to be an extreme parent, the goals she had for her daughters, her fears of the western influence on her parenting and the really dark side of her c...
