Seasons - Hillsong

In case you don’t know, music is one of my inspirations; good music is therapeutic, good music is food for the soul and mind, in colloquial terms – music is the Inspired Cutiee’s bae! Good music entails beautifully written lyrics, (as clichéd as it may sound; words are everything) good rhythm and beat, (you just can’t help but fall in love with the blend and synchronisation of time and sound, it is literally magical) and of course abundant harmony of voice or voices. Well, this is my definition of good music, argue with your two left legs *walks away* Whenever I stumble on good music (perhaps it’s not a stumble – hmm notes to self) these things happen: ·           I can’t help but share how it teleports me to another realm ·          Scream it at the top of my lungs ·          Basically just keep it on repeat ·          ...

Ineffable Love

Today is exactly three weeks after Valentine’s day, wow, time flies – what you got to do, do quick! Lol. I wrote this poem for Valentine’s day, (I’m not a believer of the day oh, just a believer of God’s not-boxed-to-one-day-celebration-love) ironically that morning, my mom was talking on Christ’s love as the apex typa of love, (tbh, she does this speech every Val’s day; perhaps she does because she doesn’t want me and my siblings to be swayed by the grand gestures people adopt on this day and her best tactic is to remind us of His love) so, Mom, relazz, we know this *wink* I urge you to be reminded, thought provoked and most importantly inspired by His Love: I thought Hillsong had my heart until I met Bethel Bethel literally and figuratively makes me tear up Reckless love is the theme ‘Oh the over-whelming, never-ending, reckless love of God’ ‘Oh it chases me down, fights till I am found, leaves the 99’ I ask, how can you have 99 and still chase 1? ‘The...

Welcome to March!

March in my opinion simply means purpose, when you march you are heading somewhere, it’s like a movement to something there, so, the Inspired Cutiee’s theme for this month is Purpose. March is the third month, the number three is also a very significant number; Jesus’s three days from crucifixion to death to resurrection, The Trinity of our faith, etc. For all I know, you probably have some symbolic attachment to the number three. PS: I want three children, hehe. I have so many plans laid out; I want to literally march to lose weight, I want to complete a project I’m working on then kick start the next, so many to enumerate… But again, I refuse to be overwhelmed, I have the best support system. This month is the best month yet! However, these are some tips for conquering this Third Purposeful Month: 1.      Always ask yourself why; Why am I doing whatever I am doing; because the answer to this why directs you to a goal/end (either negative or ...

October 1st 2016

                Another Independence Day has come oh, and boy check social media especially Twitter for the trolls and memes about our country, everyone has an opinion about this country. This day is spent in various ways; some are deciding to spend the day at various stadiums celebrating the independence through parades, some are being patriotic by wearing white or green or white and green apparels and carrying Nigerian flags, some like my tweeps are hashtagging all day, lol, some people are taking today off to rest (they cannot come and die). I asked my friend how to enjoy this day during the recession with little or no money to spend, and he was like “my dear just stay in your house, sleep and observe social media”. It is very easy to be discouraged about what is currently going on in our country. I mean in less than 3 freaking months the equivalent of $1 is almost N 500, more people have lost jo...

Dear God,

Dear God, Its your baby girl from Surulere, Lagos, Nigeria. West Africa. Africa. Earth. I know you are there. I know you always, always hear me. Even if I whisper. I'm sad. I'm clueless. I'm lost. I'm terrified. I'm tired. But I know you know all these. Because you are God. Please don't leave me to myself. I'm sorry if I may have run ahead of you, or deliberately lagged behind. I'm sorry if I have become highminded of myself and pushed you aside. I'm sorry if I haven't respected you at any time of my day. I'm sorry for consciously ignoring all your beacons to come back to you. I'm sorry for saying, thinking and doing what you've made clear that you don't like. I'm sorry that when you looked down from Heaven and saw me, you couldn't smile. I'm sorry for not making you proud. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.. I'm sorry... I can't remember the last time I heard your Spirit talk to me. I can't re...
