Knock Knock…

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hello, followers… readers… friends. I want to say thank you to all those who have wished me a happy birthday on Thursday. It meant a lot. I’m grateful to have you as my friends. Thank you again.

Anyway, today I wanted to share a poem I came across on Facebook after scrolling down my news feed. I found the message to be so powerful, I was left speechless for a little while. It was not the type of knock knock I was expecting either. No jokes here whatsoever, sorry. In my opinion it is very serious but touching at the same time. Take a look at the video below.

Life is a beautiful thing

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hello everyone. Happy Friday! I hope you are enjoying the remainder of your day.

I just wanted to briefly say that despite everything that life hands to us, whether it’s good or bad, life is still beautiful. That is why when our lives are threatened we try our damnedest to try and cling on to life even if there were just but a glimmer of hope.

That is what I thought as I wrote this poem. So next time you feel time you feel down or out of touch please remember this poem. Have a great day everyone and much love. Continue reading →

A spur of the moment Inspiration

/ Angie's Inspiration / 3 Comments

Hey, everyone! Though I do not usually write blog posts on Sunday’s too often, I decided to write one today because I wanted to show instead of tell you all of a spur of the moment inspiration I had yesterday evening.

Did you know I used to draw back when I still lived on Saba? I used to draw/ sketch clothing designs and if I do say so myself, I was actually pretty good. Not perfect but good. I even thought of a clothing line brand name back then. However, after I came to the Netherlands I have not touched a single pencil or pen to draw anything. So, it would not come much of a surprise to me if I sucked at trying to draw something now after more than 5 years of not drawing. Continue reading →

Spring’s First Intermission

Hey there everyone! Happy Friday! Just came from speaking with some crazy friends of mine on Skype. Do you have any plans for over the weekend? I do not have so much of a plan but instead I am going to try studying and continuing to write my thesis.

Since it is March and Spring is just practically around the corner I wanted to write a blog post related to that. Lately I have been seeing a lot of signs of the the Spring season and I wanted to post a poem I wrote a while back about (my first) Spring in the Netherlands. This poem (as you probably can tell) can be found in my published poetry book I’m Only Human which you can buy on Amazon, Kobobooks, Barnes and Noble and Bol.com etc. I hope you like it and have a nice day.

Historical women stories that are rarely told

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hey there, everyone. How is or was your Wednesday? I am doing well as per usual.

Anyway, I came across a video and article yesterday and I wanted to write a brief post about it today. Why are women in history and even in the present constantly looked down on as lesser than, even though women have made enough contributions to society and our current way of life to deserve a little recognition. Instead their stores and history are swept under the rug or have been put in the back burner compared to their male counterparts. Continue reading →

Wine & dine

/ Angie's Inspiration / Leave a comment

Hey there. Happy Friday! I am in a nice mood today, if I do say so myself. Today I wine and dined all by my lonesome as I watched anime and I L.O.V.E.D it! Now I am feeling like a stuffed pig and can barely move because of how stuffed I am. However, I am satisfied and that is all that matters to me right now. Although I do not need to drink myself silly and fill my gut to be happy today I still did it anyway because I can, 😛 Lol. Sometimes it feels so good to be able to do as I please. Continue reading →
