Keeping it New…

I recently read a blog from a radio dj and I though I should share :)


Keeping it New…

Everything that’s new becomes stale and every boring thing, eventually, becomes interesting again. Fashion does this very well, they keep recycling and we keep falling for it. But what we never seem to learn is that there is a trend here, that we all must follow. Chris Rock said it best; keep recycling the old into the new because “If it ain’t new it is through”



Our mothers knew the trick to keep things new. Her man became a project, she ensured he is very neat before he leaves the house; somehow she knew they would desire him and consequently paying her a compliment. And he did the same by making sure she had everything she wanted, through that she became the envy of others thus earning him admiration.

Her house is the extension of her personality. If she looked flawless, so was her house. The wife is the reflection of his personality too. If he looked well put together, the wife must be exquisite. 

Hence these days I don’t get it when I see a woman that looks like she just stepped out of a Vogue magazine shoot, but her car is messy like a dumpsite. I don’t get that. I do not even want to see where she sleeps.

I equally do not get it when a man is more smartly dressed than his woman. Who is a reflection of whom here?

How do you let your man to leave the house looking like that? And still call him yours?

How do you allow yourself, as a man to dress expensively and yet your woman looks like she buys from the flea market, and still call her yours? Moreover you claim you love them.

If you love someone you make sure they are more than what you are. 

If you respect yourself you love them enough to be the better image of you.

You want a diamond, instead of wishing him to be like someone else, polish him.

Profound, don't you think?
