  • FEB. 14: What do women want for Valentine’s Day?

    What are your plans for the big Love Day? Are you expecting any grand event?

    Five women share their expectations for Valentine’s Day:

    “I would like a lovely dinner after work. I would also like to receive bank alert. Afterwards, I would like to be left alone to sleep in a hotel for the rest of the week.” – Arin Davies, banker.

    “I want an engagement ring. That’s what I want. I’m 32 and I want to move to the next level of my life as a woman. I dated someone for three years and he broke my heart. I’m seeing this guy but it’s not a serious relationship. I can’t think of anything I want more than to find a man ready to settle down and get engaged.” – Blessing, stylist.

    “I will like a trip to Seychelles or Maldives or Zanzibar. A nice Valentine get-away, sipping Champagne and having mind-blowing sex. Those are my wishes.” – Ndidi Ugwoke, copywriter.

    “I would love to receive flowers and gift – a wristwatch and a perfume delivered to my office. The idea that my colleagues can see that I am loved would make me feel really special.” – Pelumi Oyerinde, customer care.

    “I’m a new mother and I’ve been married for four years, I have never been treated like a princess. I would like a full day at a spa. I would like a full day of doing nothing. Let someone else stay up at night while I grab some sleep. That’s all I want. Oh! And some chocolates. I love chocolates!” – Tricia Udom, digital marketer.

    PS: Readers, share your expectations for Valentine’s Day.

  • The entire idea of LIFE is to conquer FEAR every day

    Nobody understands fear like black women.

    “Should I stay with him and work it out?”

    “How am I going to cope with being a mother to toddlers and running a business?”

    “Should I listen to people and have another baby?”

     “Will I be seen as aggressive if I share my opinions?”

    “Can I make good friends regardless of the stereotype of women hating on one another?”

    The difference between failing and winning is in DOING regardless of FEAR.

    This February do not give room for fear.

    Here are 5 of our favourite quotes on fear:

    “Each of us must confront our own fears, must come face to face with them. How we handle our fears will determine where we go with the rest of our lives. To experience adventure or to be limited by the fear of it.” – Judy Blume

    “You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

    “Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.” – Yoda

    “Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.’ – Marie Curie

    “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” – Frank Herbert in Dune

  • Happy New Month SL Fabz!

    I can’t believe the first month of the year is already gone! Welcome to a new month, Welcome to February!

    It seems like it was just yesterday when we were wishing each other a happy new year. Now its one month down, eleven more to go.

    Life wasn’t built to pity, time don’t wait, it keeps doing what it knows how to to best … ‘tick’. Every second counts, do as much as you can do. Set goals for yourself and work towards it. Help as many people as you can. You’d be surprised that what you think is so little goes a long way in easing someone’s pain.

    In whatever you do, remember that you have made it this far and God is still very much in love with you. He wants you to fulfill your purpose and live your destiny.

    Go out there and shine this February.

    Happy New Month!
