I Thank God my son does not look like me - Lil Win



Though he has endeared himself to many with his comical looks and acting skills,  he honestly admits he does not have the sort of attractive looks several other male actors possess.

He, therefore, did not want his son to look like him and also suffer the teasing and name-calling he endured until the breakthrough that brought him fame and wealth.
' I have always imagined the sort of name society would call my son if he looked like me. I know people would not have hesitated to let my son know how ugly he was and some could even say worse things  I still hear about my looks.

' I  thank God for answered prayer. My son, who was delivered three months ago, carries a striking resemblance to his mother Patricia Afriyie who is as beautiful as Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji,'  the actor proudly told the Showbiz, insisting he was not  acting by saying that.

Lil Win also admitted that he was a proud daddy and went on to talk about how fatherhood had changed his lifestyle.
' Before the birth of my son who will be called  Kwabena Ampong, I'd go out and party with friends late into the night.  Since his birth, however, I've had to  stop that habit because I always want to be with him and his mother.

He said when his long-time girlfriend Patricia got pregnant; he doubted if he could take care of the child considering his age.
'I have always made a promise to myself to make my kids happy, but my friends kept telling me that taking care of a child was difficult . That got me   a bit scared  though I knew I could be a responsible father.'.

Known for movies such as Azonto Ghost, Sika Kasa, Bosam Bofo, Mogya Kronkron, Obaa Nti  and Agye Nyame Ba Mu, Lil Win, 26, said he had no regrets being a father since it has earned him a lot of respect. Some of his female friends , however, have not been happy with that decision.
'Nowadays when the ladies see me, all they say is 'hmmmmm! 'Lil Win, so you are now a father'. The facial expressions even depict that of disappointment but I am not bothered.
'Some people easily forget about the girlfriends they toiled with when they became famous. I  will not do that  because Patricia has helped me a lot.

' I know if I was nobody, the ladies who are willing to date me now would  not teven take a second look at me. I will never leave Patricia for anyone else because she was with me when no one knew me,' he stated.
Talking of marriage plans, Lil Win said he would fix a wedding date after the naming ceremony of his son which would be soon.

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers,  Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important.  Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages.  Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

THE NAKED MARRIAGE

Welcome dear Readers, You must be thinking that I want to talk about sex today. But hey, we will be talking about that plus a lot more. True intimacy requires what happens in the bedroom plus a lot more. In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, the first couple. They lived in an ideal world; no debt, no no crazy in laws, no baggage, no stress, no fighting and and also, NO CLOTHING! (Gen 2:25) When God reveals unto us a naked marriage, He is revealing to us something more than just walking around the house with no clothes on or just sex. He is revealing the importance of TRANSPARENCY, VULNERABILITY,ACCEPTANCE and INTIMACY at every level of the relationship. I am suggesting we become more intentional about working on our relationships this way. Love is honest. Love is trust. You open yourself to temptations when you decide not to live in a naked marriage. These temptations have led many down the path of doom. My husband used to believe trust in a marriage is a sacrifice. T...

''Give me a man, with whom I will serve You...'' A legendary love story

Bonjour,  I am tearing up listening to Mama Gloria Bamiloye saying something about her husband, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye. They inspired me to write this. Most of my posts so far has been on praying about your marriage and making God the centre of it.  To the singles out there, have you ever thought of communicating with God about your future partner?  Do you have expectations(specs) of whom you would like to share the rest of your life with?  Go to God in prayer and ask Him to give you what you want. The best part of God anwering your prayer is Him giving you what is actually Best for you. He knows what you need but He needs you to ask for it.  Now to today's topic; Marriage can actually take you to hell; either here on earth or after you are dead! That is why I have my slogan of, ''it is not here that matters, but in the end, before my creator" . This phrase (title for today), from Mama Gloria, shook me. It made me think back to what I had prayed ...
