ONE DAY YOU WILL FORGET


*PART 1*

Mrs Afolayan was on her way home, when she saw a lady(Arike) crying with tattered cloth and scattered hair. She packed her car, got down and moved closer to her.
“Young lady, what happened ” She asked. Arike, didn't answer her and she continued crying.

“Would you love me to take you home” Mrs Afolayan asked.
“No” Arike nodded.

“Okay, would you love to come over to my house ”.
“No” Arike nodded as she wept

“Okay, since you don't want to talk to me. I would just leave but before I go, my name is Afolayan Gbemi, I am a mother of two daughters and I am a counsellor. I know something is wrong with you but it's fine if you don't want to talk about it. I just want to see you happy” She said and as she was about to leave, she felt her hand against hers. She smiled and looked back. Arike looked down as her tears became unbearable. Mrs Afolayan knew it must be an emotional issues.

“Is it a guy” She asked and Arike wept more. “Hmm, okay. Let me share an experience with you. A lady was abused by her best friend. He had recently been her boyfriend and asked her for her love. When she said no, he reacted violently and attacked her the next night.

She was alone at home and it was late (Dark) when he called me and asked me to come over. They were partners for a school project and he said he wanted us to work on it. Oh, How didn't she see it? She didn't hear the anger in his voice.
So, she went into his apartment and he saw the look in his eyes. It was hungry, murderous.
She fought against him when he lunged at me, she tried to be strong.

She was pinned and hurting. She wanted to forget what was happening, tap her shoes together and go home. That only happens in fairy tales. This was far from one.

For the next few weeks every time he called her, she went over and he threatened to hurt her family, friends if she didn't spend her nights doing exactly what he wanted her to do....
Part two was also posted simultaneously, ensure you read through. Thank you

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...
