Is marriage the key to happiness?

Hello lovies☺


I spoke to a friend who is getting married in the spring only last week. We had a really in-depth conversation about her plans and all the wedding talk, so I took a minute to pause and sincerely inquire about her level of happiness. Her answer knocked me off my feet. I believe this will please my family, she continued, as I frequently seem to be the one who breaks their hearts when it comes to life and its accomplishments. The response made me feel a little depressed, so I followed up by asking her, "Are YOU happy?" I shall eventually be happy, my dear friend, she just sighed and told me, be aware by this point that the topic of conversation changed, and I became a motivational speaker 😂.

Even though it seemed amusing at the time to be a motivational speaker, it was a really sad conversation for me because I am aware that the majority of women make these errors. Don't get me wrong, we need to make our circle (family and close friends) happy, but OUR happiness should always come first!!! We tend to think that getting married or making our family happy that we are married is the best option or the secret to happiness!! After all the festivities and the paparazzi, it's just you and your spouse left, so how can we make our spouse happy if we aren't pleased? Is being married the secret to happiness at this point? Is it a target? Is this accomplishment?

what do you guys think?

Simple things in life!

 It's the simple things in life for me! The most recent time I had rain was in 2019! I usually get visions of raindrops in my imagination after talking to my family back home and hearing that it was pouring rain. Apart from the drops she sees on TV, my 4-year-old daughter has never experienced or witnessed drops in real life. We are all aware that this year's high levels of global warming are a result of human activity, including rising greenhouse gases, deforestation, industrial activity, the earth's feedback loop, agricultural activity, changes in the sun's strength, etc. Some regions of the world—including the UK, Europe, China, and some sections of the USA—experienced heat in a tremendous way this year (2022) such that it never happened before. So when I noticed the cloud started to display symptoms of rain, it wasn't such a shock! Finally, two days ago, it rained "Cats and Dogs". The majority of us found it to be an amazing moment because we had reall

Tales often told about women.

 Hey Lovies,💓 We frequently hear tales of women or ladies who got married and neglected their own needs. Usually, we automatically leap to the conclusion that she became less beautiful to her husband because "oh she became too comfy or perhaps started eating too much."😕 Actually, in my perspective, those are correct sentences to some extent. However, in the instances where it has actually occurred, don't we believe there is a reason why this occurs?  She takes care of her own, which is a terrific quality in a woman. If given the chance, the majority of women would go above and above to make sure their house is a secure place to live. The husband and child(ren) are usually taken care of first, and they frequently neglect their own needs in the process. Even though the husband is older (In most cases), there have been instances where he appears much younger than the wife. Give a woman a house, and she will make it into a home, according to an old proverb. The precise mean

Welcome back message.

 I'm excited to be back.  I sincerely apologize for the wait. Life has been going on. Going back to work and adjusting to reality after the lockdown (what an experience that was!) was a little daunting, and we later learned we were expecting our second child (I will share highlights of that journey eventually). As we all know, balancing everything was a little too much. Being in the diaspora alone without having access to extended family and all the support that entails is interesting! Well, I'm back now.  I'd like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to everyone who supported, pushed, and helped me to restart this blog. It means a lot to me a lot. I can assure you that this time, we are going to have fun gisting, gossiping, and even ranting about different topics. I am excited about this new journey!
