FLASHBACK


I was having a flashback about myself and these pictures, got my attention as I began to smile. 

What I am about to share, happened 2 years ago but I still got values from it.

It happened that I was coming back home from my aunt's place, after spending some weeks with them. After getting to the last bus stop, which I had to come down. I came across a man, who we both got down from the bus. He was looking at me and I thought "Why is this man, looking at me like this". I just looked away and watched the road because I was to cross to the other side

"Why do your mother have to allow you travel alone and now, you are about to cross the road" he said suddenly after staring at me. 

I was about to talk and the man said "You don't need to say anything, give me your bag". I rejected his offer and carried my bag to the other hand. I did that thinking he wanted to run away with my bag.

He laughed and said "Bring your hand Joor. We have to cross". Again, he didn't allow me talk as he took my hand and we crossed the road.

I wanted to talk and tell him that I am not a small girl and also, say few words about myself but, he didn't allow me say anything o. I was frustrated and as we got to the other side, I thought that was the end of my journey with the man until, he asked "Where are you going? Are you taking a bike or napep?

I looked at him as I frowned my face and I said " Bike". This man followed me to the bike spot and ensured I took a bike. In my mind, I was wondering what kind of man he is and for the fact that he called me small girl, vexed me but I didn't utter a word and i thanked him.

As I got home, I narrated the whole story to my mum and she was laughing. She said, it's because of my hair cut. 

Few days later, i thought that was the end of the matter until, I and my sister went out and people started referring to me as her younger sister...

Sometimes, you might be send to a place just for a main time and the people might be looking down on you but how many people, are ready not to blaster or utter a word, till the time assigned. The man didn't know, he was referring to a 300l student as a small girl.

Also, God might be trying to place you in a work or with people, that look below your standard but, he hopes if you can just learn and serve but some aren't even patient enough and we talk back, when He even tries to shun you from speaking.

Some people, can't cope in their field. They want people to see how advance they are but God is saying, start with this first and with time, everything will fall in order. 

It doesn't mean your standard is being jeopardize. It just means you understand the season you are. Just like I understand it was because of my hair cut.

In few days time, we will be dropping our writings again. Stay connected.

God bless us and I love you all❤️

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...
