Physical Affection is Weird

On July 22, 2019July 4, 2019 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I was reading something about holding hands and I realised, if you think about it for too long physical affection is really weird. I mean holding hands? You take someone else’s appendage and hold it and it’s satisfying and pleasant. It’s just a hand! I know there’s a reason it’s pleasurable and we have nerve …

I don’t wanna be

On July 15, 2019July 4, 2019 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Do you know Gavin Degraw? He is a musician, a really good one. You probably know him best or were introduced to him through the theme song of One Tree Hill. The song that I am talking about is I don’t want to be. I was listening to that song recently and I was just …

The Passage of Time is so Fast!

On July 8, 2019July 4, 2019 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I swear it was just yesterday that I was in university but at the same time it feels like that was an age ago. How does that work? I’m not the same person I was when I was 20 but at the same time I am. It’s like the older I get the more lessons …

A Quarter of a Century – I made it!

On June 11, 2019June 6, 2019 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I have reached my quarter of a century. You know when you see a storm coming in from a distance and instead of trying to out run it you just find some safe shelter and just watch it come in. Have you ever done that? In Australia once I was going home from either a …

Diaspora Blues

On April 27, 2019April 24, 2019 By GiftIn Musings5 Comments

“I finally made it,” Gift thinks as she gazes at her spot. That little patch of grass on the top of the mountain. She shrugs her backpack off and pulls out her treasured item, her harmonica. She sits cross legged at the very edge overlooking where she has climbed and the neighbouring mountains beyond. The …

Knowing Your Self Worth: Everybody!!

On April 23, 2019 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Hola, how have you been doing? I’ve been doing alright, there’s an update at the bottom of the page catching you up on me. In addition to all that below I have been spending time with family and a LOT has happened within my family. I started thinking about self-worth and identity and being a …

I Love Being Feminine

On December 11, 2018December 5, 2018 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Sometimes I feel like being feminine is seen as a bad thing. There are people, and I don’t mean men, who view femininity as a weakness. It’s like it’s a crime to like the colour pink or to enjoy dressing up or liking make-up. If I’ve talked about this before forgive me but let me …

Are Names Self-Fulfilling Prophecies?

On November 1, 2018October 7, 2018 By GiftIn Musings4 Comments

When reading the bible I’ve often wondered if names are self-fulfilling prophecies. I mean the amount of times people have lived out the meaning of their names. Take the story of Jacob and Esau. Or the names of Joseph’s brothers. Or how God changes people’s names when they have a new purpose, like how he …

A Soulmate Is Not Always Romantic

On October 25, 2018October 7, 2018 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

Do you believe in soulmates? I’m not sure if I do however I have met or seen people and relationships that have made me think that soulmates do indeed exist. Traditionally the idea of soulmates is applied to romantic relationships. As in you meet a guy (talking from my point of view) and he’s “the …

How Martial Arts Helped Me

On October 18, 2018October 7, 2018 By GiftIn Musings1 Comment

I started karate when I was around fourteen years old. I had always loved martial arts. When I saw that my local leisure centre had lessons going I asked my mom if I could join one of the clubs (there was Aikido, Kung Fu and Karate being taught) and she said, “Sure, which one?” and …
