Hello readers and fellow bloggers. It’s been a week since I last posted. How are you all? Today I just wanted to post a poem I found interesting and that was written by Allen Edgar Poe. I found it interesting because in the first couple lines into the stanza it basically mentions how from childhood he felt and was different from everyone else. The way he saw things and his passions it was different from everyone else and so he was alone. Well at least that is my interpretation of the first lines of the poem.

Why does society ridicule men when they experience domestic violence?
Hello all. It was a nice sunny day earlier today although I spend the whole day in my room, but oh well. I just wanted to write a brief post about how men who are sexually abused or experience domestic violence are ridiculed for this even though this can probably happen to anyone.
Many cases when men are sexually or domestically abused they are practically left to themselves to suffer alone. They are so ashamed to mention this to anyone and that these sort of things are never brought to light. The men who experience these things continue to feel ashamed and lonely with no way to express themselves because of fear of being ridiculed. Why is that? Continue reading
Another Maya Angelou poem that’s a favourite of mine.
Hello All. How is everyone? Some time back I wrote a post about Maya Angelou being one of my favourite poets even though to be honest I know only but a few poets. That time I posted a poem from Maya Angelou called ‘Phenomenal Woman’ which is a personal favourite of mine.
Today I just wanted to share another of her poems that is also a favourite of mine. This is because some of the poems that Maya Angelou wrote I can somewhat relate to on a personal level if I may say so. Not to mention they are both confident and sassy but at the same time mellow. I especially like poems like that.
Today marks 1 year since I started Angie’s Inspiration!
Hey, all! How are you? I just wanted to write a brief post about how today makes exactly one year since I started up my blog and decided to go ahead with my ‘brand name’ Angie’s Inspiration.
Being alone or single does not equate to being lonely!
Hello everyone. Sorry for my long time being away. I took some time off without letting anyone know and went AWOL for quite some time. I deeply apologise for my absence.
Anyway, today I wanted to write a blog post regarding how society has somewhat conditioned us, especially women, into thinking that we NEED to be in a relationship (or we need a man) or else it means we are lonely and maybe unwanted goods.
Correct me if I am wrong but do you not think society has done a fine job in perpetuating the idea that a woman’s only goals in life is to find a man, get married and have children? Never considering the idea that some of us WANT to be left alone and not date or marry or have children. Oh God forbid, if we enjoy being alone and single it must mean there MUST be something wrong with us or we must be a lesbian. Either one or the other. Because there is NO WAY that a woman can ever enjoy being alone. Continue reading
I volunteered at the TedxBinnenhof.
Hey there. Today I wanted to briefly write about my experience volunteering at the TedxBinnenhof on Thursday. Tedx is not the same as Ted, but actually an independently organised Ted event, hence the x.
Anyway, this was my first time attending any Tedx events and I must say it was a really nice experience. I was part of the Communication’s team and helped out in many tasks alongside the other volunteers. Continue reading
