Inspiration.....

Hello Blogsville!!!! How was your weekend???. Mine  was Okay although i was a little furious i did not get too many Happy Father`s Day text Messages, i mean i am an up coming young man and some day i`m gonna become a father plus when it was Mother`s day i wished all Females including my 9 month old cousin Happy Mother`s Day. I noticed how those who never had the love they should or never knew their dads said of sort of trashy things about their dads on Twitter,to make matters worse i went over to my mum`s and  it was like any regular day apart from some fun memories we shared about my dad. Before leaving i asked her why she did not send me a Happy Father`s Day text message or even call me to wish me and she said because you are not Married with kids son. I just smiled at her and she smiled back too,if only she knew how many Straight Jabs,Bicycle Kicks,Upper cuts & headbutts she had received in my head,i bet she wouldn`t "jokes".  

I told her to remind me the last time she thought of leaving the operating theater & travel just  to show up for  my kid Brother`s P.T.A meeting without pressure from the school,she looked up and maybe  after some sincere thinking or just wants me to leave in peace or sleep well that night she said Happy Father`s Day. So to all women please, biko ,ejòwó, Meh-paa-chow, ofaine ,请 ,주시기 바랍니다 "had to beg in different languages" encourage us up and coming guys by wishing us a Happy Fathers day or acknowledge every fatherly duty or role we play,it only makes the thoughts of becoming 1 less Scary for Us. Signed my ROYAL SELF, DiDi :)

Now to my main post ..Inspiration,as defined by elook.org is..
  1. [noun] arousal of the mind to special unusual activity or creativity
  2. [noun] a product of your creative thinking and work; "he had little respect for the inspirations of other artists"; "after years of work his brainchild was a tangible reality"

  3. [noun] a sudden intuition as part of solving a problem
  4. [noun] (theology) a special influence of a divinity on the minds of human beings; "they believe that the books of Scripture were written under divine guidance"

  5. [noun] arousing to a particular emotion or action
I guess we all need Inspiration to go about our daily business. Although its summer  and most of us are either resting, travelling or partying. we all still need that daily dose of Inspiration . Below is my Favorite Inspirational poem by Ian Kennedy  & a few Inspirational pictures i use as Screensaver.


 Inspiration by the light of day, 
Inspiration to make me pray.
Inspiration in my willingness to give, 
Inspiration to move on and live! 
Inspiration to tell my story, 
Inspiration because there is no glory.
Inspiration comes from deep within, 
Inspiration from sorrow and sin.
Inspiration makes this real, 
Inspiration is how i feel.
Inspiration can come from rain, 
Inspiration takes my pain











Enjoy and have a blessed and Fruitful week...GOD BLESS YOU.

Who am i ????

 Hello Blogsville!!!!. How is everybody doing???? How is your weekend ???? Mine has been fun so far coz its Summer Break and that means NO to SLEEP and YES to PARTY. I noticed i did not give a formal introduction when i joined the blogging world and so i decided to write about myself..Likes,Dislikes,weird stuffs and random things.....

 My name is "DiDi" Darling-Dennis OluwaTayo Kudadze .I was born in Lagos State to a Nigerian dad & Ghanaian mum. The 1st of 4 kids, was once a Muslim but later converted to a Christian. Did not know whats up back then all i knew was i loved my DADDY to the Max and so whatever he does,i do tooo. 

I Started playing football @ age 8  for PEPSI FOOTBALL ACADEMY ,after 2 years  i had my 1st ever International transfer to a British owned football academy in Ghana NETWORK ACADEMY where i played in various divisions till i went away on Loan to Eagle Giants Fc. This was the first time my mum who is now my manager showed interest when it came to me playing football.Before i move on, let me tell you a little bit about my MUM.

My mother is 1 of those no non-sense ,slap that taste out of your mouth, flog the evil out of your heart and because i say so type of person,she never gave room for explanation. For that i did not like her that much, my dad has always been my best friend but the sad thing was he traveled alot and  for this reason i had to occupy myself till my dad gets back. My mum dashed me to the Catholic church we attended "NO JOKE", her reason was that i was too stubborn and so the Rev.Fathers would help shape me.In my defense i would say she did not understand me at all .I am the type who believes you have no right to make me do things and your reason is BECAUSE I SAY SO. Although i was young,i did not tolerate that.  I became a Mass server,lived in the Mission house for years. My daddy asked if i was okay there and i said yes because apart from attending training sessions and doing chores around the mission house & Church, the FOOD was AWESOME!!!. "don`t blame me lol"..I did not want to go back to my mum plus was confused by OYIMBO FOOD "western dishes"..Anyway all that passed and i`m happy because i had alot  of exposure and experience. 2 years ago she gave me a Random phone call and apologized for all she put me through when i was  little . I told her it was Okay and for the 1st time told her I LOVED HER. I was glad she did though because although i loved her,i never shared a roof with her since my early teens even when we moved to Ghana..WE ARE BEST FRIENDS NOW.

My dad  "May his soul rest in Peace" Was a loving man!. Although we had our moments,he was the coolest. He was calm and always ready to talk about anything,YES ANYTHING..this dude started SEX education when i was 9 after discovering an IKEBE SUPER mag in my Drawer..what i love the most about him was he always spends time with my siblings and i just to catch up with what he has missed whiles he was away & the level of Confidentiality,his lips were always sealed no matter how mad he is at me or no matter what i have done,he never believed in whooping my ass,he did more talking which always makes me break done in tears unlike MAMA ALMIGHTY who knows the right combo combinations to a perfect K.O..lol ..i could go on and On..Sadly he was poisoned in 2001,the main reason we Moved to Ghana.

Now my name, It took a Looooooooooooooooooooooooong while for me to get comfortable with the name DARLING-DENNIS.,i mean of all the names in the world my parents decided to add DARLING to my DENNIS forgetting how its like to attend school in Nigeria with a name like that, Only the white kids found it cool back then. The rest of the kids kept inventing names for me..Like DING DONG, DODO"fried plantain",DiDiRiN "forgotten what is really means but i`m sure it has to do with being dumb". Once asked my mum why they decided to give me that name and all she said was at the right time she would tell me. This is 1 thing i dislike about older folks,they will hold on to something as if its the 8th wonder of the world. Anyway i`m still waiting for her response,when she tells me i will let you know too. I`m loving the name Now more that Ever well coz they Ladies Finds this SEXY..lol plus it always get me attention, Some GOOD and some BAD.

Now to things i like ..I like to clean,scrub "whenever i`m pissed or bored,the bathroom tiles suffer",do my laundry. I like asking  questions coz i hate it when i don`t know ,I don`t play with my Music,i listen to all kinds of Music even the ones in languages i don`t understand. I like all kinds of Movies but Horror ones,i don`t see scaring me as entertainment. I read alot,from religious books to Mags to School Books "which i haven`t done since i dropped out of Uni in 2007,don`t be alarmed coz i`m going back or let me say i`m back already" . If you notice i`m following countless blogs,believe it or not i read all the posts they have up,the only time i don`t is when i`m handicapped gadget wise . I like people who would look me in the eye and tell me you did this or did that and for that i`m hurt,i would explain what prompted that Action at the said time, apologize and we move on. But if you are 1 of those who always want to Pyramid of Giza delivered to your door before accepting the apology then i can assure you would need more than 1 life time for that to happen. I like to hang out at the beach whenever i`m bored,slept there countless times coz i just enjoy the breeze although it gets CRAZY cold from around 2 to 5 am "a habit i picked from my dad".  I like to Travelling,meeting new people and experiencing different way of life, don`t mind going on a trip and coming back home Broke . I like Sneakers,by liking i don`t mean 1 ,2,3 pairs..i`m talking 30 to 40 and counting..Some believe its a problem but i think they have to mind their business.,I like to check up on friends and Family everyday especially family ..."let me cut this Short coz i don`t think i will ever finish ."

Dislikes...I don`t like people who behave as if they are holier than thou,Hugging Bible/Quran  24/7 & passing judgments on people who don things we believe ain`t morally right. Its by his grace we all wake up everyday and it hurts when i see some people walk around as if they have earned it. I believe no matter how bad people might be,we are not different from them and the best we can do for them is Pray for them. I don`t like the smell of Fresh fish,if i have to eat fish then it has to be canned. I don`t like selfish people..me me me me, we can never get along. I dislike people who Brag,who don`t show appreciation ,who find it hard to say SORRY,THANKS & PLEASE,who thinks the world revolves around them and to my super dumb ones who thinks the sun needs their permission to shine or the rain needs their permission to fall.

Some of my best kept secret...All my life i have fought just 3 times which offcourse was in primary school, out of these 3 fights i lost the 1st one to a GIRL at the Play ground..Wait before u start  laughing,this  Calabar girl was short but STRONG JEEZ!!! , i thought i could beat her up without trying just to gain some sort of reputation but my people God had a different plan for me. She managed to get me to the ground,sat on me & fed me with white sand. I was saved by the bell that signaled that break was over..the other 2 went in my favor,funny jokes about my name started the fight.


I have NEVER bought a gift for any girl apart from my sister and MaMa on Valentines Day,I know u gonna wonder why. I haven`t had a relationship within that period.. Still on girls,I have dated just 2 black girls,a South African & a Kenyan.,the rest?? yes your guess is as good as mine.I have never dumped anyone before we always break up coz she or I have to move and she can`t do distant relationship and all sort of excuses..so i always ask, what  if we were married and i have to travel?? would you Divorce me and re-marry?? Guess that's just my luck. well  i`m single at the moment and not looking for now but when i`m ready my new girl have to let me know what she would do if she or myself had to travel to a different country. Lastly I`m extra careful on my Birthday coz i have had 2 near death experiences on  this day. 


Theres more but i think this is enough to set the ball rolling....

My awesome weekend with Becca..

Hello fellow blogsville  dwellers, how was your weekend????. Mine was PARTY,PARTY & more PARTY. Let me skip all the boring part and head Straight to the GHANA MUSIC AWARDS which to me ROCKED although there is still more room for improvement. I was happy because alot of awards were giving to the right people and some as usual to the wrong people which infact to be honest isn`t my business because people always grumble about 1 thing or the other in showbiz.



There were lots of performances by artistes from different genres but this  performer who stood out and stole the show was the reason i attended the event, she is Becca.

Rebecca Acheampong aka Becca is of of Ghana’s youngest afro pop artistes whose music, style and charisma has caught the attention of many including international figures.


Based on her outstanding achievement in the music industry, she was again  invited to perform at this year’s Ghana Music Awards which  took place at the Accra International Conference Centre on Saturday, April 9. It would be her fourth appearance at the awards ceremony. Becca’s style of performance and stage craft on international platforms like the Ghana Music Awards has added value to her chosen career.

The sensational afro-pop artiste, who launched her musical career in November 2007 with her maiden album ‘Sugar’, is the only Ghanaian artiste who has been consistent on the platform of Ghana Music Awards. ‘Sugar, which has the hit song ‘You Lied To Me’, which featured Kwabena Kwabena, also earned Becca four other nominations some years back. Becca also featured Hugh Masekela, a great musician from South Africa on her track ‘I Love You’. The ethereal beauty has been hard at work on a follow-up album since her main ‘Sugar’ collection came out at the end of 2007. She has already put out three singles meant for her new album – very very popular ‘Daa Ke Daa’, ‘Eti Sen’ and African Woman. How was your weekend???, Have a blessed week everybody.

                                                  Forever.


                                              African Woman.

Is There Hope ???

Sometimes i ask myself if there is hope for a better tomorrow or are we just all waiting to be killed by 1 natural disaster or the other??????.....In my opinion i think the  world is getting emptier by the day  and its just sad,especially with the wars,disasters,sicknesses..etc..Its stuffs like this that gets me  into that "i have a billion questions to ask GOD mood".I know can`t question GOD & i know was not around during the time of the cave men but i guess they did not have to fear Tsunamis,terrorist attacks and all sort of rubbish we hear N see these days..Question now is whats next ???? or whos next??? Guess we ripping the benefits of  "Civilization" which if U ask me is doing more harm than Good...GOD HELP US ALL. :(
