FamilyRe: What Is Is With Ese Walters And Married Men? by tpia5: 9:14pm On Nov 21, 2013
Well, some things get lost in translation, thats why you ascribed that kind of meaning to the name. If you said something like that to an average yoruba person, they might think you've lost it and are just rambling.

The name isnt that unusual, ifa and fa mean the same thing.

Most likely the original ancestor/s bearing the name, may have been native priests or powerful spiritual leaders.

However, after the abolition of the slave trade, the meaning wouldnt be given much thought per se.

perhaps ese is offended by the name? huh

she thought the pastor is abusing white people?

CultureRe: Yoruba Prince Dayo Weds Cameroonian Beauty, Singer Naomi Achu! by tpia5: 4:57pm On Nov 21, 2013
the accent in the music tape sounds nigerian, so perhaps she's lived in nigeria and can already speak the language?

ok, she already made an effort then, she should follow it up by learning more about her husband's culture, even if he's americana, doesnt matter.

unless they want to raise the kids as fully american and no nigerian.

hope no comma btw, those are getting too common these days.
FamilyRe: What Is Is With Ese Walters And Married Men? by tpia5: 4:38pm On Nov 21, 2013
what's your own understanding of the name?

one has to know that first before proceeding.
FamilyRe: So, What's Wrong In Choosing Marriage? by tpia5: 4:17pm On Nov 21, 2013
Marriage and career are not incompatible.

Women just have to set realistic expectations for themselves and understand life is not a fairytale.

Men also should do the same.
