We all mess up sometimes. So why is learning to forgive yourself a lot harder than forgiving others?
Have you ever noticed how you can hold on to past mistakes long after they occurred? Some of us hold on to things for years!
If you look in the mirror and look yourself in the eyes but you don’t like the person you see, then you need to forgive yourself and learn how to love yourself again. (more…)
Belief in yourself is the foundation of self confidence.
I know it can often be hard to believe in yourself, especially if you feel like you have nothing to offer or are unworthy of things. But you are worthy and you are capable. (more…)
Q: My fiancé has become adamant about me taking his last name after we’re married. I can’t believe this is even a conversation in 2014. Don’t all modern married women keep their names? I don’t want to change my name, so what do I do?” –G.D.
If you actually want to be like the majority of modern women, that would mean that you change your last name to his. Recently, wedding juggernaut the Knot surveyed 19,000 married women about their surnames and found that just 8 percent elected to keep their names. (more…)
I’ve been there, and I’m sure you have… You get excited about a new goal, a new possibility. You may even put a detailed plan together on how you will make this new possibility a reality. And then all of a sudden, you find yourself wondering:

No matter how far along you are on the road towards pursuing your passion, regardless of how “experienced” you are—we all still face the fear of failure. (more…)
A little kindness, an encouraging smile, a loving help to a neighbour or complete stranger goes a long way in making the world a better place.
This video tells us that in many ways. It is so interesting to see how showing kindness to someone can result in receiving an act of kindness by another person. There is definitely a reward for every act of kindness. It might not be from the person you are being kind to, but somehow, your good works make a way for other people to express love to you. (more…)
When I was much younger, I used to dream of becoming a music artiste (who knows? maybe I still do… lol!).
I was in the choir, I loved singing (still do) and dreamt of being on some world stage singing to thousands of people. This was before I discovered my true passion in Acting.
I know many of us had different dreams as a child. At the time I was growing up, almost every young boy wanted to be a Pilot or an Engineer. Now it’s different. Boys want to be Footballers, Musicians and Politicians. The girls also dreamed of becoming Doctors and now they want to be Models. But the truth is that not many people end up becoming what they dreamed of as children. (more…)
On this special day of love, I’d like send out my warmest wishes to you. Yes, I mean YOU!
Thank you for taking time out to visit this blog, for your your wonderful comments, your emails, your suggestions, your criticisms, your love… thank you for everything! (more…)
When most people think of marriage in our society, it is often between a man and a woman who haven’t had any children from past relationships. Not that there is anything wrong with it, of course not, but I can’t help but think about some other members of the society who are often segregated when it comes to the topic of marriage.
I mean single parents. (more…)
While Monday may start out a little grey, a little GLAM can go a long way…. (more…)
