2012 My Best Year Yet!

We are in the middle of January already, I haven't quite finished my new year ritual which I should add I have just adopted this year! As they say if you want different results, do things differently!

So this year 2012, I have resolved will be the year i look back on and reference it as the year my life changed for the better! I have good life, don't get me wrong, I have a great  husband and son who make me count my blessings all the time, they are the best family I couldn't have asked heaven for any more but I believe I can do more and this year I want to do more, I want to achieve great things. I have decided to pick my dreams dust them off and start running with them. Writing this blog is one of my dreams and  I plan to put up something new at least once each month and maybe it will be more than once but my minimum is to write a blog once each month but I hope to be back before this month ends to update you on my January ritual that I have just begun in 2012.  So see you in a few days with details of my new beginning of the year ritual!

God bless you! I mean it

What goes in will come out!

Spring is here! So glad the cold winter season is officially over. I wonder what everyone got up to this weekend. I had a superb Saturday, we organised a surprise baby welcome for one of my girlfriends. The plan was perfect and she was one pleasantly surprised momma! Sunday was picnic day with my little big family. Fun! Fun! Weekend did Monday have to come? Well it did and it’s back to serious work for this lady.  I have been frustrated a lot lately by my lack of progress in my academic work. This was caused mostly by challenges in writing, so I went for a writing retreat. The four nights away from home were a great eye opener. I was waking up each morning with nothing else on my mind except just to write and was pleasantly surprised by the progress I made. So I realised that I needed a lot more time to be able to write well academically.  Before the retreat I had been frustrated because I found it so easy to write for my blog and not my academic work. At a certain point I...

To be content…

Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me Philippians 4 v 11-13 Recently I have struggled with questions about God’s love for me. You see there is this one thing that I wanted God to do for me. I prayed, trusted and feel like I fulfilled my end of the bargain but God just didn’t come to the party. I threw tantrums, got angry with God, and asked Him why He didn’t care. From where I stood, if God cared he would have answered my prayer you see. If He really cared, He would have given me this one thing that I thought would make me happy. In that moment my joy and fulfilment hinged on this one thing happening, it had become the one thing I sought after. In seeking after that one thing I lost sigh...

Hello! Hello! Hello! I was looking at the goals I set out for myself at the beginning of the year. 2012 was supposed to be my greatest year yet. To a certain extent it has been a fabulous year. I got the privilege to travel to Scotland and present my work at a conference there. I found a good work rhythm and my work is going great finally. It has also been a really difficult year, I came so close to throwing in the towel with my PhD. I thought I just wasn't cut out for it because I was not getting anything right. I kept missing deadlines time and again. It felt like I had gone way too deep than I could handle and I was drowning.  Like I told you in my other post  what goes in will come out , I had to make changes in the way I was doing things. I decided to read and follow academic blogs and that has made all the difference. I have found a community of other people studying similarly to me and we share resources which is really great. There is one good lesson to ta...
