DON’T HIDE. DON’T GIVE UP

I was off a month and one thing I’ve realized is that nothing beats a moment of reflection, even in the midst of the storm.

Sometimes, all you need is to retreat. Watch out for my writings on this space; it’s going to be therapeutic, a little sanctuary for your mind.

DON’T HIDE. DON’T GIVE UP

Over the years, so many people have chosen silence but silence often makes healing harder. It’s an emotional struggle

Sometimes, emotion mix up because the life you want, looks like the one someone else is living Or the job you’ve been craving doesn’t come through, no matter how hard you try. You can’t just find happiness and so, little by little, you start to give up.

You shut the door to new opportunities not because you want up but because you’re tired of getting hopes high again

You are so fast to shift blame’s on others even though you know deep down it’s not but you just want to feel right

You live quietly, secretly hoping that one day, someone will notice you.

But how? When? What if no one ever does?

Don’t let depression silence you. Keep showing up.

Don’t hide because of debt.

Don’t bury your skills just because you feel unseen.

Don’t let unemployment kill those visions

Maybe in the past few months you’ve been in hiding — observing, scrolling, waiting but deep down, you know that’s not what you’re meant to do. Nations are waiting for you. Don’t let them go hungry.

This is me telling you:

As a Caregiver, be sound in mind and steady in heart.

As a Writer, let your words speak for you. Don’t leave your light under a bushel.

Yes, you.

Fighting those emotional struggles

I hope to see you overcome and continue what you’ve started

There is so much embedded in you.

Don’t give up.

Life doesn’t get easier, you have to get tough

Your silence is not your strength — your voice is and the world is waiting to hear it. Get your independence from that depression. Pull yourself out

Happy New Month Lovelies

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...
