MY STRUGGLE


BATTLE 38
*I WISH*

I wish someone can hear me scream.
You would never know it,
The constant pain I feel, because in the light of day it doesn't seems real.
Can't you hear my silent screams? They are so loud that they echo in my dreams.

Behind this face that carries a smile. Lies a an unknown person with different issues.
My silent screams have been going on for years but it always falls on so many deaf ears.

How can they hear these silent screams when it only echoes in my mind?
Sure, I'll play, I'll laugh,
I'll sing some songs,
But that pain is always alarming because it's been there all along.
They can't hear my thoughts if I keep telling them I'm fine.

What can I tell them? These silent screams carry no words. It's just feelings of sadness
How can I explain so people understand this?
It's like walking around with a choked mind

I can't explain how this feels; it's so extreme,
So I hold my mouth shut to cover my silent screams. The moment I tried to explain it to them, they tell me that I'm strong enough.
They say that it will gets better.

They tell me, "I will be happy one day. All you need do is fight."
But what they seem to forget is after each day comes the night where the pain becomes bright" Bolanle said to the counselor.

To everyone struggling with depression or deep pains from past, family issues, etc. I want you to know God is with you and He is waiting for you to cast your burden on Him. Men might not have the right words but God does and He EXPECTING YOU to come to HIM!

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...
