The Weekend community is going on two this week and I am super expectant of the challenge. Do you want to join in the fun with us, you can hop in as @Galenkp has awesome options to go for. Here is the WE104 WEEKEND ENGAGEMENT.



Two songs or pieces of music

Name two songs or pieces of music that have meant a great deal to you, defining moments in your life, made you feel great happiness or great sorrow when you hear them or taken you back to a special moment. Explain why in each case. You can link the YouTube videos if you like.



I find it hard to choose two out of the many songs I love listening to and I just can´t keep picking this, dropping that, and then picking again to be sure if I should go for them but finally, I just had to make my choice and go for the two randomly. I am a lover of music and even though I don´t like spending hours listening to it, I still find time in the day to entertain myself with interesting and intriguing songs that captivate my soul.



These two songs were being played many times again this morning as I woke up, feeling great and juiced up.



Music is life and food to the soul and thanks to all artists who have sung songs relating to how we feel, the inspiration and motivation we need for the day, and to tell you that many of the songs are sung for a reason to those who sing it and in one way, these songs have raised our spirits, gives us the belief that we are great and to say we are wonderful and should never be disappointed whatsoever.



The first on my list is titled "DUDUKE" sung by a Nigerian beautiful lady called SIMISOLA OGUNLEYE.

I was confused at first when I heard the song the first time and I couldn´t understand what the word "Duduke" means until I searched for it and saw the beauty in the song. At first, I thought it was more like a love song for two lovers who are into each other and are planning to settle down and keep their love growing but knowing what it means brought life into me.



Duduke according to the singer means "The beat of your heart or like a drum you move your body to dance to". She said the song is for the expectant mothers and truly, she sang the song when she was having her baby bump.

She later proceeded to say Duduke is the beat to whatever you want to be and I felt inspired because singing the song too made me see myself as a wonderful mother in the future and the best I want to be is becoming the best mother and woman to my family.

I played the song again this morning and I kept visualizing myself in the future. The kind of children I want and how I would take care of them and be great for them too. I found myself praying within me to be alive to mother my children and help them live a great life. It brought that special moment to my mind and I can´t wait to celebrate that moment. I hope to remember this song because it is what I will play then.



First let me say to you
I can not wait to see you
You are the treasure I've been waiting for
Do you know do you know
How much I really need you
I dey pray for the day when I can finally kiss you
You know say everyday I dey pray for you oh
In my heart oh there is a permanent place for you

This is the first part of the song and this is how I am expecting my baby to arrive in the world too as I can´t wait to see the treasure that will be kicking in my womb, hearing that tiny sound of Joy would surely bring me alive again and when that time comes, I know a little treasure that will soon become a great diamond is born.



The second song is from the same singer above and it´s titled "AIMASIKO". Aimasiko means "Not knowing the time"



The song will always be one of the best on my list because this talks about human beings who aren´t waiting or being patient for their time because they want it quick and it has sent many to the graveyard. This song reminds me always that there is time and season for everything and my time would come to shine if only I wait and I am patient enough to see what God has prepared for me.



Part of the song says "Not knowing the time is what makes humans keep troubling themselves". They want it immediately and do not understand that their time is different from others.

Though we all may start together, it doesn´t guarantee the same time for everyone. Our time is different and when I listen to this song, it reminds me to keep living in the moment while I am patient because surely my time will come to me. I don´t need to rush things but to keep waiting.



Yes, listening to these two songs gives me that happiness in me because I believe the future is bright if I keep believing in God and knowing that when the right time comes, I will be a mother to wonderful children, be the best wife to my lovely husband, a friend to everyone and also a daughter to my family. I am patiently waiting.

I believe you are inspired by this too?

WAIT FOR YOUR TIME!!!

Thanks for reading

Never heard the song Duduke before this moment, but I listened to it and I am officially a fan. The music is so very soulful and soothing. Loved it. And yes, everything happens at its appointed time, never before. So patience is key and it is important to appreciate and value every moment along the way.
