MY STRUGGLE


BATTLE 12
*An Unpredictable Life*

I sit here now in darkness, living on my own,
A life of existence, and rooms that sometimes resonated with laughter
Saw also tears of much sadness, pain, suffering, and anger.

For death entered the lives of those now dearly lost,
Creating prison cells of emptiness, loneliness, and memories,
Casting shadows within those silent and empty rooms.
The tears I shed quietly, along path of darkness,
Following footsteps of abandonment and utter sadness.

For the pain of the past,
Which sometimes drown within my doubting soul
Burning with heat, painfully, and once more take control.
No words could ever express
I dare not see and are hidden from even me.
Some days are just too hard and weary to travel
And nights seemingly drown in darkness 
Depicted within my mind, endless, and too barren,
For I loved too much.

Life has not been that good which I grew to believe
Providing me with a future of smiles and love
The sadness which I now find to be so close to me
My road through life has been rough and lonely
Though I have tried so hard to find joy and peace.
Yet the faster I ran to catch up
They only blew harder, remaining just out of my reach.
I see families with smiles, holding hands with care
Reminding me yet again of my responsibilities 
Another day awakens, though my spirit remains quiet

I faithfully believed that with my truest given love
And commitment I gave to all of those in need
Would allow my life to be complete with joy and hug
I'm so very tired of the winds,
Running so hard to catch that which was not to be.

Hmmm
Dear sisters,
To anyone dedicated to feeding their family, providing love and all the needs.

Please about the needs and don't let go because if you do,
One day might be too late
In as much as you love and are kind to them,
You must also treat yourself right
Only then you can have the capacity to continue and don't give up.

God bless 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, ...

GOD SLOWS YOU DOWN

​ Sometimes God slows you down so He can show you what you were too busy to notice.  There was a season in my life when everything felt like it was moving backwards. Plans that once flowed easily began to stumble. Doors I thought would open effortlessly suddenly became heavy. I kept asking, “God, why are You slowing me down when I’m finally ready to run?” But the more I struggled to push forward, the more life insisted that I pause. And in that stillness,  the one I didn’t choose  I started to see what I had been too busy to notice. I noticed the habits that were draining my strength. I noticed the people who clapped for me publicly but resented me privately. I noticed the warning signs I had ignored because I was too focused on getting ahead. I noticed me, the me I had been neglecting. God wasn’t punishing me. He was protecting me. He was whispering, “Slow down. Let Me show you what you missed.” And what I saw in that pause changed everything.  Sometimes the slowdow...

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...
