Relationships is one of the ‘forbidden’ topics is most homes which makes it difficult for young people to open up on the same. 

Girls have been taught to stay away from boys and fear them. Which I believe is the reason that we are having many irresponsible and abusive relationships.

Most parents and strict, therefore, bringing up the boyfriend topic will get you in lecture room. It is a fact that young girls have boyfriends and I would encourage you to tell your parents.

Let me first appreciate the person who came up with Mother’s Day for whatever reason he or she had. 

At least someone acknowledged how important mothers are and also how tasking it is to be one.

WHY? One could ask what is killing me. LOVE IS KILLING ME.

Our Love

Going down memory lane to 3 years ago, Eli and I have been dating for those three years and five months to be exact.
