30s, Children, Freeze Eggs?
**Before anything else, I stand in prophetic declaration with those in-waiting to proclaim “Your miracle is coming.”** I think a lot about childbearing since hitting my 30s. I do find my reasons a tiny bit selfish. Entertainment, having a mini-me, etc. Then again, I suppose this is normal. Nobody is having kids to strengthen national…

Olivia & Women
One of the funniest elements of my existence is Africans calling me “Oliver” on a regular. It’s so funny and random to me. It’s usually non-Francophone speakers so I take it, they never watched scandal? On another note, I attended a Women’s event today at work. Learned the following. Did you know that most weapons…

Bona Fide
Long, Long ago, I emancipated my mind. Life is not a mathematical equation to be executed with precision. No , ex-lovers did not steal your youth & no, witches did not haunt your wallet. Life is a fluctuating, beautiful mess in which, destiny, will always accomplish herself! If nothing else, I hope I have inspired…

Ramadan, Congress, Weight, Justice

Instead, I…

Imagine my delight when I heard that my Kenyan sister (whom we affectionately call Honorable Tacha) and I will be spending 3 days in a retreat with 41 women from across the nation, most of whom have aspirations for public office and…

FEDERAL HOLIDAY
The Prototype. The Muse. The Pioneer. When we were younger , dad would give us pocket money, but my sister Sandrine would never spend it on herself. She’d always give it to someone in need. She’d never tell a soul either, not even me. The person would be the one to tell us later. Sandrine,…

Life Lately…
First things first, 7000 Dead Bodies in DRC since last month. There are really no more words left to say in re- depravity of man, but let us take a moment of silence to honor every life lost. As for you Genocide apologist, Ewww, brute that you are, may your pinky ever get jammed in…

ECONOMIC BOYCOTT
Today is the 24hr economic boycott! This effort is spearheaded by a grassroot organization, The People’s Union USA. Inhabitants of America have been called to economically resist for 24 hours as an act of rebellion against a President that has mistaken himself for a demi-god. Idea is to abstain from making any purchases, whether in…

Saving? Argh.
I am 32, by the time they were my age, both my mom & dad had individually bought land/properties and were financially responsible for their parents and siblings. As for me, I have been working for close to a decade, so I should have a hefty savings account, but I don’t… I followed a very…
