I woke up this morning very sober, it happens very rarely, but today, I could tell something was different. I got up and sat down at the side of my bed and I started praying. As I prayed, I began to cry, this is not new to me, as I cry often when I pray, … Continue reading Feel what I feel
Taking the easy way out
It has been a very interesting couple of days for the entire world. The evil that injustice is has somehow been amplified through the occurrences of the last few days. It has been heart-wrenching to scroll through timelines on social media or even have decent conversations with people without them voicing out their frustration, anger … Continue reading Taking the easy way out
“My healing will finish there”
I don't know if you have ever been talked into something to the point where you even started to consider it even though initially you were completely against it. My friend had been encouraged to get married in his early 20's, everyone advised him, well, it did not happen, mid 20's, it only intensified, 'Get … Continue reading “My healing will finish there”
Crumbled to be strengthened
2 months ago I woke up to a number of disturbing texts from a close friend. She was in a funny state of mind, suddenly, she couldn’t pray, she struggled to worship and she began to question everything in our faith. This was quite weird for me cause this is like the Silas to my … Continue reading Crumbled to be strengthened
Justice doesn’t always bring healing
This blogpost will largely mirror the conclusion of this previously written post. It was focused on sexual abuse, healing and moving from it. I think I should’ve stated even more in that post, how important it is that we heal and move from anything at all really that causes us hurt or pain and not … Continue reading Justice doesn’t always bring healing
Banging for others
Earlier today I got a notification from a friend on Twitter, opened it to find a plea to get on Instagram to comment someone's name under a post to win an opportunity. I did not even know who this person was but on account of my friend who reached out, I went through the hassle … Continue reading Banging for others
Heaven sounds stressful
I stumbled on a page a few weeks ago on Instagram, I really love aesthetically pleasing feeds and this person's arrangement happened to catch my attention. Her first post fortunately was on 20 facts about her, so I busied myself reading 20 facts about this stranger who curated such a beautiful feed. I am quite … Continue reading Heaven sounds stressful
Long coloured braids
Honestly, some people just need to be given room to grow. You as well, need to be given room to grow. People fear growth sometimes, particularly mentally because they don’t want to be seen as inconsistent and double-minded. But they are actually two different things because we are actually expected to grow and evolve as … Continue reading Long coloured braids
Continue from where I stopped?
I had to edit a document someone had worked on today, I cannot count the number of times I stopped, took a deep breathe and said out loud, "God you have to help me". I was actually slightly angry and my anger was on how I assumed my work would be easier just editing, but … Continue reading Continue from where I stopped?
Name = Nature
Something really funny happened in high school a few years ago. One of the hostel mistresses had done something really uncalled for and she would not let me explain so I snapped at her and I told her that if she would not listen to me, I will also not listen to her (I do … Continue reading Name = Nature
