Today's Must-Read: "FROM THE MEN: A LOVE LETTER" →
followandreblog:
Dear Good Woman,
I wanted to take time to let you know how much I value you as a woman.
So often, it’s hard for me to express these feelings face to face, but it’s not because I am a typical guy who cannot show his emotions. It is because the qualities I cherish most are so precious, I rarely even speak them out loud.
Our relationship started with surface things like our...

Today's Must-Read: 2011 (by Isa Garcia)
An excerpt of a better whole:
“Every once in a while, you will go through moments where the landscape is dull and where the world hardly looks like the paradise that was promised to you. You will go through points that are dry and through months – maybe even a whole year – where absolutelynothing happens.
But I hope you’ve figured it out by now. That nothing in life is arbitrary. That...

Today's Must-Read: "Women, Stop Submitting to Men" →
My friend and I were just talking about this yesterday, and to my surprise, this article came out on RELEVANT Magazine, as if to affirm my renewed thinking. ;)
Here’s my favorite part of the post:
“There is no biblical category for “boyfriend” or “lover,” and we owe such designation no submission. In fact, to be submissive to her future husband, a woman must stand back and evaluate,...

Today's Must-Read: FASHION RULES FOR SHOPAHOLICS →
I stopped thinking about clothes and shopping for quite a while because, deny it or not, there are certainly so much more to life than them. But, for some reason, it seems like the gurrrrl in me is officially back! And because it’s Christmastime, I’m welcoming her with arms open wide. ;)
Let’s not get carried away, though, I tell myself. I used to do a lot of impulse buying...

The goal was to post one must-read article per day, but as you may have noticed, I haven’t been able to do that for the past four days or so. Apparently, it’s not always easy to find one that’s truly spot-on and worth sharing.
But, today, I got lucky and found something to share. :) I say this is my choice of post because I’ve been having PMS for a couple of days now and...

My Christmas 2011 Wish List - Part 1
1. Since one of my friends and I have started a book battle—effective this December 2011, I’ve been scouting for more and more books to buy. I know I still have plenty to read here at home, but some books just look so tempting it’s hard not to want to possess them. Hehe. Here are some examples of those! :)
But, if not books, Fully Booked Gift Certificates should be fine....

Yesterday, I decided to start posting must-read articles on a regular basis. The goal was, and is, to post one for everyday.
I found what to post yesterday via Twitter. I saw the link there, read it, thought people needed to read it, and that was that. And afterwards, I got wondering where I was going to find my next article to post. After all, this is still brand new to me and little things such...
