WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

Flashing back to my childhood, all I remember is being ROBBED.

Robbed of the mentality of what feminity is,
Robbed of the knowledge of what being a woman is,
Robbed of so many things and the question I ask myself daily is Mummy why?

You were the first person I had a close relationship with and you never gave me sex education, not even showing me the sexual organs on a female.

I got to find out things from my friend and biology teacher. I was shocked when a guy asked about MY LIBIDO LEVEL. I got home and wanted to ask you but I knew you will persecute me. You specifically distanced sexual talk from me.

The only memories of sexual education I had was you screaming, "Don't let a guy touch you,
Don't play with guys,
Don't be too close with guys,
Don't hold any guy". You said if I do all these, I won't get pregnant. I listened to your words for some days until I realized I was pushing away all the guys that came my way.

I began to walk and move with my female friends just like you wanted and I ignored the guys because I remembered every word but see where it has landed me. The so called move with the same sex has taught me more things and exposed me to feminity and sexuality is all about. I began to learn some new languages and know many new things about myself. 

At age 14, I knew what sex is all about because most of our discussion was based on that. I began to feel the need of the opposite because the way sexuality was discussed by the girls, seems enticing and I wanted to explore.

Probably, if you had told me all about this in the right manner probably, I would have restrained myself,
Walk up in confidence knowing that my body is precious and had to be kept till the right time.

Only if, 
You had told me what sexuality is all about I wouldn't have been eager to explore

Only if,
You had answered me when I came to meet you and asked you some silly questions maybe I would still be your little baby

Only if,
You had not pushed me and shunned me when I was inquisitive about sensitive sexual matters, maybe I would still be your baby girl.

You robbed me of my right and I had to learn in a hard way from the people that were inexperienced.

Now, you watch me and regret ever having me but I regret having to come to the world through you. I regret ever knowing you.

WHY DID YOU ROB ME OF MY MENTALITY. 

To every mother,
In as much as you want to hide something sexually away from your children, I also feel they need to have a fore knowledge about who they are and what sexuality is all about. 

You can buy them books to read if you feel you can't talk to them yet but at least, let them have a knowledge about it. Getting knowledge from outside, won't be like them trusting your words. They can be mislead.

Dear Parents, if you have your way, let your teenager attend this program. TEENS AND SEXUALITY. It's going to explosive.

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...
