 *ADERONKE'S STORY*


"What else do you expect from me? I have nothing to say about them. My parents own their business" I said


"Wow...that's nice. My dad is the CEO of Bridge Maker company and my mum is the Director of Loan it finance company" Shade said confidently


"Wawu...All i see is greatness and great achievement. You must be happy and proud of them" I said as I took a deep breath and smiled falsely


"Yes I am. Just like you are proud of your parents. So, what business are your parents into" Shade asked as I soliloquise and said "Normal business...Please can we talk about this another time? Shade agreed as she was confused


I know I acted bad but that's one problem I have now. I find myself in the midst of people whose parent's are either of great influence or has lots of achievement.


They all seems very proud of their parents while I find myself struggling to accept the reality of my parents. I know you might see me as a bad child but I am hurt, I also want to have great things to say about them.


I am trying to classify their work because I don't know how to tell people my mum sells "Pomo(animal skin)" and my dad sells "Mat". I don't want them to look down on us or neither me. So I will rather go with the business qualification for them but deeply within me, I know I am not  proud of what they do and that makes me an ungrateful child but how do I open up to the people about their work because I seems to be surrounded by people of great personality who are proud of their parents job but I am not. 


Also, I suspect that they already know that, I am hiding sometimes about my parents. I want to tell them the truth but I find it difficult to do that because, I am ashamed of what they do. Please, help me...


Hmmm...To every ADERONKE'S.


Do not be ashamed of yourself or your parents. No matter where you are, where you come from or what you have. 


If a thief can be proud of what he/she does...How much more the jobs of your parents. No matter how ugly their jobs are, remember it is the money gained from it that  you are spending and feeding on.


Pull yourself together and see beyond those words from others. You are an achievement, a proof that out of that business of your parents that might seems ugly to people, it's bringing out the best in you and you are also in the same school with them.


So, be proud of your parents business (Positive ones) and be proud of yourself because when you do, those people will also be proud of them but if you aren't, you have paved way to welcome negative words and actions.


Don't look down on yourself and parents. The joy of it all, is that you are living and doing fine like others.


God bless 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...
