Morning Coffee with Fanny

Forever 21 Happy , happy birthday to me! One of my Favourite numbers is 6 and I thought for today’s post I would share with you the 6 life lessons I have learned.  Be happy. Scientist say it promotes a healthy lifestyle. Be positive. This allows me to see things from a different perspective. Have patience. I have learned to let things unfold naturally. Letting nature take its course.  Be grateful. I remind myself of each and every blessing I am surrounded by.  Believe. I believe that everything is working in my favour.  Live. I feel like I am an old soul but I remind myself to live a young and unapologetic life filled with fun and love. Today we take coffee shots.  HERE IS TO MORE COFFEE TALKS.

Goal setting for me, has deflected from being  a mere thought and simply praying about it to noting it down. This year I thought I should not only focus on the major things I want to achieve in life but the small/ short term goals. I am talking about goals I can achieve daily. It is not only about setting goals but putting into action which has been a big challenge to me. One of my short term goal was to write consistently, believe you me, it took me a long while to get started but I told myself I need to before my birthday, hence, we are here. Besides writing, i have also set a goal to read 2 novels/books each month. I have challenged myself to post daily for 6 constructive days. From here I will focus on posting short stories on my other blog.                                                        HERE IS TO MORE COFFEE TALKS.

Ever read a book that left you feeling unexplainable feelings? At a young age I would read and actually draw from time to time. I thought I would venture into drawing like my brother, at this period I do not recall where sister was. Barely know where she came from.  Perhaps, shoprite as parents usually lied.  Slowly, I developed a strong liking for stories. And soon I was falling in love with my high school library.  Unknowingly, that I could construct interesting sentences, I would often get compliments first for my handwriting and then my writing from teachers and friends.              I guess University helped unleash that, that I could not see. From there, it’s all been a go. Writing allows one to be free. In addition, it is an opportunity to tell all sorts of stories. Allowing myself to fall in love a million times over and sometimes to make you away that you are not alone. It is a lot. We have to take it step by step. You ha...

I have rewritten this three times and I could not think of better people to write about other than my family members. Their goals and attributes have added to my upbringing one way or another. And I chose these specifically because I love them unconditionally. Mr dad : if he could still tuck up into bed and tell us bed time stories he would. He is full of stories and is ever making people laugh. He makes everyone comfortable from the word go. He literally never sees any bad in any person. A good listener too. Mrs Mum : has always taught us that we are good enough and should go after whatever we believe in. Her childhood stories never end. Always cooking. And always optimistic.  Boo : was once my best friend but decided to get married, breaking my heart in two. Knows how to have fun without a worry. Someone you can tell your problems to.  Sister sister : my duplicate. ready to exchange birth certificates because I really do believe I was suppose to be the last born. The only hu...

Fanny : the name Fanny has different meanings in other countries and languages. In Italian, French, English and Latin it is a baby girls name which means free. In Greek it derives from some goddess meaning light.                                                                                                                                                 Food lover : I enjoy eating new dishes. Hence, I have taken it upon myself to learn how to cook different food because I get tired of eating the same foods easily.  Second born : being a middle child is hard to define. (DO NOT HAVE ANY RECENT PICTURES WITH MY SIBLINGS) Natu...
