THE JOURNEY OF LIFE

Episode 22

The surgery was successful and everyone was glad. Mrs Alabi thanked everyone around her. She called mama and her aunty to inform them about the success of the surgery.

They all rejoiced with her and she thanked God even though he still had to use crutches but she knew it's for a while. Days after, Mr Alabi returned home with his crutches and everyone kept staring at him, some were talking, some were laughing and some pitied him but none of these bothered him as they walked inside the compound with their church members.

Tolani and her siblings were back from their aunt's house but She had to plait her hair and ibukun followed her. So,  only David, silver and Mrs Ajanlekoko(Aunt) were around when they came in.

Mrs Alabi told the pastor to lead them in prayers. He was still praying, when Tolani and Ibukun got home. It was the footwears in front of the door that got their attention. “Why are people much in our house today ” Tolani thought and she opened the door.

The first thing she saw was the crutches. “Daddy why? She screamed and fell on the ground. The pastor stopped and they turned back. There was Tolani weeping and rolling as ibukun was looking dumb. Mrs Alabi rushed towards Tolani and her sister but Tolani ran into her room as the sitting room became unbearable for her to stay. 

She locked up herself as she began to cry and write. “God why? I thought I was at the healing point. I thought my family was getting restored but God why?...

It was already getting dark as Mrs Alabi thanked and escorted everyone who came to greet them. Mr Alabi thanked his wife as he could not face his children. Horrible things kept going on, until the day the landlord brought them a letter of leave, asking them to vacate his house within three days. Part of them was happy and another was feeling bad.

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...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
