The Sport called Chase




Recently I had a conversation with one of my friends on the emotional inconsistency we go through as girls; and she sent me this picture, believe me this was the ‘hammer on the nail’.
            I have pondered on this post for a while, and I have come up with basic steps on how this sport is played:
First; boy meets girl, or girl meets boy (and in some cases same sex meets the same sex)
Secondly; they get close through frequent communication, visits, hang outs, blah blah
Thirdly; prior defenses or walls are gradually brought down, and both parties begin to feel comfortable
Fourthly; the step I like to term “when all forms of shakara has ended, and the person has seen you finish”
Lastly; one party begins to do anyhow.

Now not to be bias and say that it is only girls that go through this turmoil; I mean we are human and everyone eventually does anyhow, better put misbehaves, my own on this matter is why?
Personally I get bored easily, honestly I haven’t had a long term relationship with the other sex because of this, so I can relate to this sporting activity. However, where I draw the line is the intensity in playing the game, yeah it’s a game which:
1.      the rules should be stated and adhered to,  
2.      if one player doesn’t commit to the game ends,
3.      should be fun while it last, and when it stops being fun should end
I won’t be passionate about something I don’t really want or believe in, in any scenario, a job, a friendship, an opinion or idea, so it perplexes me when I see or experience the intensity in which some individuals invest in somethings. You know you know what you want (yeah sometimes you need a push to get you to finally decide on what you want) so when this fact is stated, why would you consciously fund:
·         time
·         energy
·         money
into something you are not fully interested in.
            I watch the series Scandal by Shonda Rhimes, it centers on Oliva Pope (Kerry Washington) and President Fitzgerald (Tony Goldwyn) and their uncouth love. People who strongly believe in the sacredness of marriage would not support this love, but the majority of the fans religiously watch because of the thrill of their love. It is a sporting activity, and it is no wonder that their love took a radical nose dive when she moved into the White House.

Some would say that’s how would you prove to the person you are “chasing” that you want them? Some females even say that they would pick the guy who puts the most effort into the chase. I’m not against the chase, I’m of the opinion that you should not end the thrill of the chase.


PS: I seek your humble opinion on this issue.
With love,

The SS 4

If you’ve been following these series, you know they started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe). If you haven’t (where have you been!) – you can read the Kick Off , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 . I concluded part 3 saying watch out for myth 3… (still watch out!) ‘I thrive on purpose’, ‘I exist because of purpose’, so what then are the things I should be conscious of during this phase? Literally what lessons should I gather from my singleness? This requires a critical look at Genesis 2: 8-17: 1.       Place: God has a purpose for every place He puts me, He wants me to see, learn something before He can show me the next step. For example; He placed me in my family for a reason. Ironically many (myself inclusive) place ourselves and source for a person or people to validate this place we’ve placed ourselves. Even more sadly, many (myself inclusive) fight the place God has placed us. 2.      Pu...

Short story type of day

I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

List

As we countdown hours to the end of the year, in every corner there seem to be lists of things that happened this year; they maybe favorite or worsts, or top experiences or things that made history, sha lists. (you get my drift right?). I don't think I have sat down to draw up a 'list' well expect when I was applying for a job and they specifically said give 10 reasons why we should hire you. Yeah that happened. Lol. So I have been thinking, really thinking. A whole lot can happen in a year, emphasis on  'whole lot'. Except you write every detail of what happens daily and not miss a day (I wonder if there are people that are this deep) you are bound to forget some things. The movie 'INSIDE OUT' depicted how our mind works. (If you've seen it; you have an idea of what I'm talking about, if you've not I don't know what you are waiting for) There are too many things that have happened this year for me as an individual, in fact as a...
