About Me

I'm just a girl determined to live my life Intentionally!

WELCOME TO MY JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE!


Welcome to my newly revamped Blog. A lot has happened since I last blogged in June and it seems like such a long time ago.


I am a wife of one husband, and a mother of 5 kids, although they don't seem like kids, they are all taller than me and and range in age from 17 -26, four boy kinds and one girl kind. At times I make a huge effort to understand them and then I get exhausted and practise putting on make-up instead, I feel I get that right sometimes!! If you don't agree, I don't need to know, thanks anyway!


The kid in the picture on the sides, thats me, I felt it necessary to let you see yourself that I had the whole fashion thing happening when I was 8, even knew how to accessorise with the clip in my hair and the peg holding my cape on, was wooden, not some plastic junk!


I have just launched a new business that I am excited about called "THIS IS WHO I AM". So I will pop over every now and then and share something funny, wise, stupid, sad and hopefully inspiring.

I want to hear from you, drop me a line, and for those who have asked me to write about something in particular, I'm getting on to it!


Many times I have been asked to start blogging so I have finally taken the plunge. My blog is going to be about everyday life and sharing the journey with you, hopefully you will be encouraged and I will learn how to do life better.

I have a busy, fun, crazy life but don't know that I would swap it in a hurry for a quiet, boring life, although every now and then would be nice.


I will be adding interesting and funny photos along the way!

Looking forward to the journey.



Love Nelsa .

WHAT KIND OF VAPOR?


Today I heard this great talk reminding me that my days
on earth are numbered, that my life is but a vapor, just a
vapor, here one minute and gone the next, such a short
time really.
I went to see how the dictionary defined Vapor and it said -
Barely visible or cloudy diffused matter, Wow, thats
encouraging! Not! But just like the spray in the picture,
a vapor is a fleeting thing, something that disappears.
Its not all bad news though and I actually did get
excited because I realised that we may not have a
choice on how long we were a Vapor for but it got me
thinking about what kind of Vapor I wanted to
be, because I do think that we have a choice in this.
I could be like my favorite perfume - Flowers by Kenzo,
and I would like to be, leaving a lovely scent wherever I
go.
I could be like a gas vapor that powers others, but not tuned
into the right source, gas vapors can make people very
sick and even die.
I definitely do not want to be one of those smelly vapors
that people are always complaining about, you know the
ones, the chicken farms and paint factories, the annoying
people, the ones that make you want to run a mile from.
Maybe we need one of those Vapor Recovery Units that
manage greenhouse gases! haha.
Our lives may be short, but lets make them count!

  1. Yes, I like to be carrying the fragrance of Jesus wherever I go. People around me feel or sense the presence of God. Shalom!
