The Heart's Woes Series - Tilani

The Heart's Woes Series is the next project and book one is already being written.

This series chronicles the journey of six dynamically different women who have formed an unlikely bond of friendship.

Introducing the ladies of The Heart's Woes Series.

Meet Tilani  "The timid"

Baptised at the age of 11 she was raised in an ideal family setting where the main objective of her existence was  to love and fear the word of God and grow up to be the good and obedient wife.
She followed the path as laid by her parents.Kept her self pure, her face in a book, and her eyes trained out to find Mr Right.
She had been in the natural movement from birth as she didn't believe in processing her hair, she had never had a piercing or wore make up. Her brows were the way they were from birth, she had never bothered to have them waxed or shaved, not that they needed it anyway.
Shy and reserved and and painfully self aware she was the constant centre of attention whenever she stepped into a room; as she had been blessed with an unusually large and shapely derrière.
An emotional house of card she was happy to have the met her spouse early to be in protected from the ills of the cyclonic relationships her friends had endured until her husband decided to turn her world upside down.

" only a look"

I have been criticized for my stance on children, childbearing and child rearing and as I in earnest prepare to take on the challenges of the classroom I have started paying close attention to the behavior of the children around me.
Working at Golden Circle Hospital has provided a whole host of examples of where the children in our society are. Manners......what is that? Modesty ....... another language? The only thing most of them get high scores for is indecent exposure.
Typical example... my colleagues are presently nursing a 14yr old patient...... whose parents complained bitterly about the severity of her condition.
Yet as soon as she is wheeled on to the unit she pitches out of the bed and proceeds to galivant all ova di blasted place. When she did return to the bed it was only to take up her lip stick and face powder.
Puppa Jesus if yuh nuh bizzi..... check eeen pon mi affor mi tempa tek mi.

Now those of us who grew up in the "one look generation " knows that our parents used to give us the ultimate fear factor experience...... as the singer said " only a look" and you would know that to continue on said path would leave our tush in a sling.
What has become of parental responsibility, social propriety?
I therefore take time out to thank the parents who take parenting seriously and commit the time necessary to guide their children to become contributing members of society.
Lord keep strong ..... Mamma bear big up ... big up .... big up.....
