Discovery of the blog title

-
Holistic Serendipity encompasses all parts of a person; the mind, body and soul in a development of events by chance in a beneficial way (Online Dictionary). The title was inspired by my journey, growing up and discovering my talents in various places unexpectedly. With the assistance of my best friend and sister Andisiwe Mthengwane a journalist in the making and a friend ever available, (follow her blog @ www.blackboldvoice.blogspot.com), who has inspired me and my sister in so many ways. She is undeniably one in a million, a phrase best to describe her is 'A package sent from Heaven', she is our angel Gabriela. 

While daunting in the early hours of our vacation in 2011 December she thought of the word 'Serendipity' to best describe the concept of the blog, which to her was inspired by my discovery of writing. Along with Serendipity we established the word Holistic to be a perfect description of what the blog will focus on. There and then we were not certain as to what the blog will encompass, and what the main focus of it would be. It was only at the beginning of this year that I was enlightened a bit as to what Holistic Serendipity will entail, through discovering more about myself, about others and exploring the gifts of others. A discovery, a journey, promoting all good things that will serve as a motivation and inspiration to the followers. A journal of some sort, shared amongst a collective - a very intimate space shaped and shielded by the grace of God - He who I believe has stacked bombshells in each of us and timed them for the right season.

Holistic Serendipity, the story of my life! The story of your life! The story of our lives! Our chapter! Shared with others, to serve as an inspiration! To build, motivate and make a change! Showcasing each beautiful surprise embedded within each individual that will grace our presence in this blog. Spoken through a variety of forms of communication; word, poetry, art, music, fashion, business, nature, etc. This is a platform to bring out each person’s personality, character, walk of life, careers, dreams, visions and working towards a success thereof, bringing about change in the society. Success stories told by you!  Translated by me! 

P.S: Shout out to Andy (@www.blackboldvoice.blogspot.com) for making it all possible!

Willpower: The Fair-weather Friend

-
by Joyce Meyer - posted January 13, 2013 But I say, walk and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to and controlled and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God). —Galatians 5:16 Willpower sure sounds like a great thing. We are led to believe that we have enough of it to fight off every temptation that comes our way. And sometimes it works. But let me tell you a little secret about willpower. Willpower is your best friend when things go well, but it's the first friend to check out when you get weary. I have found that if I really don't want to do something, my mind gives me plenty of reasons why I don't have to. My emotions even join in, saying, "I agree because I don't feel like doing it anyway." Our soul (mind, will, emotions) would love to run our lives, but the Bible says we are to be led by God's Spirit. We ar

According to Google, Personal Development is a lifelong process. It is a way for people to assess their skills and qualities, consider their aims in life and set goals to realize and maximize their potential. Incidents and events that happened in our lives have scarred many of us. It has injured us to a point where we have lost ourselves, our dreams, visions and aspirations. My story dates back to my earlier years. I grew up as a brilliant and spontaneous child. I was that youth who soared through everything; I had a powerful personality but was also very fearful of displaying my full potential as I passed through an emotional and traumatic childhood. This was a trauma that stuck through and blocked me from bringing out the best version of myself. I continued existence as the little girl who had a wonderful vision of growth. I had flushed out all that I went through and endured life. Likewise, I matriculated, then later on graduated with flying colours. Likewise, I had lived at the
