The Sport called Chase

Image
By



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,
TheInspiredCutiee 😘

Short story type of day

By
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...

The Halo Effect

By
Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
