TODAY WAS DIFFERENT

Today was different, as different as different could be..
I went to bed around 1:50am because I just had this urge to pray and as usual, later on, waking up was a chore for me. I woke up a few minutes past 8am and the Sunday morning rush began..
Lol, I wore my perfectly laundered white gown that has black floral patterns on both sides, I love this gown. It didn’t stay very white for too long though.

Different. We had breakfast and somehow I preferred the eba and vegetable soup my dad was eating to my yam and stew and as if in protest, the fish from the soup didn’t make its way into my mouth successfully. It ended up on the floor after leaving a very prominent stain on my gown, I picked up my fish and still ate it. Lol.
And I still wore that gown all the way to church, just because.

Today was different, every single hymn sounded different and with a whole new meaning and when I looked from the choir pew at the congregation, every face had a whole new expression, every smile looked more radiant. I wasn’t the only one feeling it.

Today was different, different in a way that’s difficult to explain.
Today was different and I hope tomorrow is too, in a better way ❤️

Have a lovely week ahead, you are deeply loved ❤️

SAIL!

I'm sitting on the floor in my bathroom, this is the first time I've been inspired to write in months and like you'd guess, I'm inspired by blinding pain. All my life, since I can fucking remember, I've wondered why some certain people treat me a certain type of way. For years, I couldn't get answers so I tried to fix something I didn't have a clue about. At 20, I'm here wondering if all the soul searching, quest for answers, zeal to breakthrough and all I had to go through were necessary. I'm surrounded by lies! Lies everywhere! I've beat myself up for so many years for what wasn't my fault and while I'm relieved I wasn't at fault, I'm utterly bewildered. After all these years, the people I've fought to protect have been lying to me. I don't know how to feel and I know this doesn't make any sense but I'm this close to losing it. This close.

A REAL RAPE STORY (AN EXPERIENCE)

So much has been said about sexual molestation,  assaults, rape etc and for some people, they're just mere stories. Unfortunately for others, its their reality. Before I delve into the topic of rape, I'd be letting you in on the REAL stories of people out there who somehow, have been victims of such circumstances. I was 15 when I lost my virginity I had hoped so had to protect. At the time, there was this friend of my cousin's who wouldn't let me be all in the name of he liked me. He was always stalking me, telling me he'd do anything for me and all. I kept turning him down, and I guess my rejection didn't go down well with him and he told me "you'll see". I called his bluff and went about my normal day to day life. Mind you, this was happening in my village because, at the time, my parents had taken me with them to the village following a relatives burial they wanted us to attend. So, some days after the burial, my parents trave...

THOUGHT SOMEONE MIGHT NEED THIS 💚💚

You will never have anything figured out and it might sound harsh but thats how bitter truth is. Don't beat yourself up when things don't go as planned cause that's when things get interesting--- being able to survive it all but really what do we have to lose? We'd all die anyway. You'd not know until you stare death in the face that now is all you have. Maybe when you understand that life is a journey and not a race... but answer honestly, what do you really want? Thinking out loud... I really don't know who needs to hear this but, Live, love, laugh .
