I was exhausted on all levels: physically, mentally, and emotionally. My body aches as a result of a long workday and few hours of rest. I awoke at my usual time, but my mind immediately began overthinking, thoughts, thoughts, and more thoughts. I felt knackered and distressed. What made me sad? When I thought about my life, my dreams, and my goals, I realized that I was not … Continue reading OVERWHELMED

A conversation I had earlier this morning had an impact on me today. I was reminded of how valuable I am and how well I deserve to be treated. My father once told me the story of the pearl; for those of you who don’t know it, your assignment is to find it. 🙂  Pearls are not easy to find; in fact, to find a pearl, … Continue reading YOU ARE VALUABLE

Best wishes for a happy 2022 to everyone!! I hope that this year brings you everything you want and that you succeed in everything you do. I haven’t posted in a while, and my first and only promise for this year is to be more consistent. I’m not going to leave you hanging! 😀 I have no New Year’s Resolutions. Why? Because I believe in following … Continue reading New Year, New YOU!!

Life has its own way of demonstrating to us that we are always a work in progress. I had no idea it had been so long since I had written anything. In the last eight (8) months, I’ve been through it all. I won and I lost, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to keep trying. Phew! After that, I literally had to … Continue reading Work In Progress

I busied myself thinking about the things I face in life on a daily basis. It really took me a while to notice I had thought about everything so hard that I became too timid to live. I thought of myself as a well rounded, knowledgeable person, but only to find that I really didn’t have a clue about many things. Simple, everyday things. I … Continue reading My Awakening

Have you ever been in a situation where you were disadvantaged, stepped on, or disrespected? I had a similar encounter lately; I was almost treated like less of a person because I was perceived to have a simple personality. I was mistreated and attempted to be silenced as well. I am sure the question from you to me would be “How did you react?” “How … Continue reading Revenge

I am talking to you! Yes, you! Why do you doubt yourself? Just because you started off on the rough path, doesn’t mean that you are not headed in the direction of greatness. Who told you to stop looking ahead? Keep your eyes in your own life and stop comparing yourself to others. Slow and steady wins the race! Of course, I am talking to … Continue reading You Can!

No matter who we are, where we are from or what we have, there is a point in life when we all have to face our struggles alone. The funniest part is that; when it comes to this phase of learning, we can clearly see that; when we cry out to someone, they either don’t seem to understand or they cannot help us at all. … Continue reading The Desert

As far back as I can possibly remember, I was resilient, determined and strong. I had to, who else was going to be there for me? I taught myself every self-discipline I know just so I never fall off track, I remained firm and with confidence, I knew where I was going. Emotionally I was strong as I didn’t even have emotions, I didn’t care … Continue reading When being strong is your only option!

Is life really just a gamble? I don’t wish to be apart of this game and neither should anyone. I am yet to find or meet someone who’s really interested in me, I mean; really getting to know who I am and what I am really about without wanting something. It’s all about extorting to get a piece of my mind, to have me do … Continue reading Note to self
