FOR THE LADIES: Engagement Rings – How Important Is The Size Of Your Stone To You? And Would You Care For Diamonds Or Cubic Zirconia?

Diamond ring

Let’s face it; it is no secret that women love diamonds and that a woman’s best friend is diamond!  And if it were left with women to buy their own rings, they would have bought the brightest and biggest stones as their engagement rings.

Granted, that diamonds are not the only precious stones to have on an engagement ring, however they are the most popular stones used in designing engagement rings.  Indeed, I have heard many people say that the size of the ring does not make the marriage better. And that a bigger stone does not necessary mean a happy marriage.  But let’s be realistic here for a moment, every woman would be happy to have a bigger diamond ring-happy or not…

I personally care about the size of my ring. It doesn’t have to be a 1, 2, 3 or 4 carat diamond, but it has to be a visible size diamond, so I don’t have to squint to see it.  For all that we endure as women, I believe it is only fair that we get decent engagement rings.

Two sisters who allegedly wrapped a new-born baby in a black polythene bag and put it in a ladies’ handbag are in the hands of the Ashaiman branch of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU).

The sisters, Katherine Ankrah, a 29-year-old trader and Emilia Ankrah, a 28-year-old food vendor, who is the mother of the day-old baby, had allegedly conspired to abandon the baby somewhere or kill it when they were arrested.

The suspects are residents of New York in the Kpone-Katamanso District and Abeka Lapaz in Accra respectively.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Jennifer Bola, Ashaiman DOVVSU Coordinator, who confirmed the incident to DAILY GUIDE, said Emilia, who was travelling from Ashaiman to New York in Kpone near Tema on a commercial vehicle, put the baby in a black polythene bag which was in her handbag.

On the vehicle, passengers became alarmed by the constant cry of a baby but they could not locate it.

According to her, the cry of the baby persisted until they got to a bus stop at New York where Emilia alighted, and the other passengers spotted some movements in her handbag. This aroused suspicion in the passengers.

The DOVVSU Coordinator explained that the passengers arrested the woman and demanded to know what was in the bag, adding that Katherine, who was waiting for Emilia at the bus stop, rushed to the scene a few minutes later and quickly collected the handbag from Emilia.

THE BIG QUESTION: Love In The Diaspora – Is It Possible For An Illegal Immigrant To Really Love A Legal Immigrant Or A Citizen Of A Country? My Friends Say NO!

us-passport[1]

I have realized that Ghanaians in the diaspora often question whenever an illegal immigrant falls in love with a legal immigrant or a citizen of a country.  I will focus my article to the immigrants in the USA.

I guess the reason this has become a way of thinking for most of us is because there has been so many instances where a legal and an illegal immigrants have fallen in love, gotten married, had children, only for the illegal person to have acquired a legal status and left the marriage.  Strangely, once the illegal partner is legalized as a citizen of the country, he/she suddenly realizes the marriage is not worth fighting for, and walks away.

It is rather unfortunate because this type of behavior has made many people to believe that whenever an illegal immigrant falls in love with a citizen or a legal migrant, then the love could probably not be real.

I don’t believe that can be the case in all situations at all. I believe there are so many illegal immigrants out there who will love and love forever a citizen or a legal migrant.  I know there are legal and illegal immigrants from other countries who also experience this.

The only difference is that, these people are not so fast to judge or question a relationship between the two people as not being real. They give it a chance to see what comes of it, and most of the time great things do come out such relationships.  So why is ours any different?

The fact that it’s happened to about five percent of the Ghanaian community doesn’t mean it has happened to everyone.  This backward way of thinking could let someone walk away on a genuine love of his/her life if he/she buys into such arguments.
