THE JOURNEY OF LIFE


Episode 2

Growing up was not fun for Tolani. The older she gets, the higher the challenges, struggles and pain she faced. She feel bad at times that she could not get to experience a lot of things many children of her age did because of her low self esteem. Sometimes, she was surrounded by opportunities but no boldness to step in.

At age 13, she became a witness to seeing her mum being battered by her father. “Wow” one of Miss Bosede student said but she intentionallh ignored him and continued with her discussion. Tolani was affected emotionally, mentally, academically because of what she experienced at home. When her father saw her scores was reducing, he became angry because he does not joke with their studies but he failed to ask what happened?  and Why she scored less.

Instead, he shouted and nag at her. Each time he does that, he create fear in their heart. David, the first born would always say “I hate dad” and the rest would join him in saying that but Tolani would remain silent as thousands of words are running through her mind. With tears flowing through her face, she still speaks to calm her siblings. It is going to be fine as she always say.

She became a source of inspiration to her siblings and she earned their respect and honour eventhough, she was still struggle with her esteem(her unknown personality) that none of them saw. “What then is the definition of life to her” Emeka the most gentle guy shouted from the back with tears in his eyes as he weep profusely. Emeka is someone that does not shows how he feel, people hardly understand him because of his personality.

Everyone was shocked to see him weeping but Miss Abosede moved closer and patted his back and said “It is well dear.” She knew she has touched a part that struck him and he could not resist the anger in him. Miss Abosede knew today's experience was over and she told the students they would meet another time.

Your experience might not be exactly like Tolani's own but whatever it is do not give up.

Stay tunned as we journey together.

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...
