Hey You,

 




I woke up to songs from an overjoyed man this morning.

Usually, things like this irked me because I don't like my beauty sleep being disrupted but this time I listened to this man.

The manner in which he sang made me warm.

He was so grateful that he made it to the end. 

I'm sure he made many mistakes this year but God saw him through it all and I understood why he was so happy.



Hey You, feeling sad that you didn't meet up to your expectations?

You're not in the mortuary yet.

Hey You, feeling like your goals would have all been fulfilled by this year end but it didn't work out that way?

The world has not ended yet.

Hey You, feeling like you didn't attain any heights this year?

Well, check it out, at least you're taller than some people.

Hey You, feeling like you should put more effort in the coming days?

You definitely should. Stagnation is a disease.

Hey You, feeling like you should have taken the bull by the horns and approached that special someone?

If you like, keep walking in circles. Time waits for no one.

Hey You, feeling like your problems keep multiplying?

Sorry to burst your bubble but it won't stop. You have to go harder.

Hey You, feeling like giving up?

If you do, someone else is going to.

Hey You, feeling like those ideas won't change anything?

Watch as someone else pitches it and bags a lot of money from it.

Hey You, feeling like it's a waste to out those talents to use?

Lol. People are being recognized from it.

Hey You, feeling like the gang left you out and you beat up yourself about it?

They probably knew you'll feel bad. You should stand up quickly.

Hey You, feeling like writing up resolutions for the new year?

I'm sure you haven't finished that of this year. Please continue with it.

Hey You, feeling like those habits will stop once you say "I'm not carrying them to the new year"?

Dey play. If you like, don't work on yourself.

Hey You, feeling like the little things don't matter?

Until that pin you refused to pick up pricks you.

Get your head in the game. No more playing the pity party. It'll get harder as time goes on but as I tell myself, What's life without a little pain?–although some may have it bigger. 😂

Yes, it's a new year. It will also a new day and a new week but it's still the same you. You weren't given birth to again.

Learn to make good choices and walk without fear. 

Hey You, I'll be rooting for you.

D.

IMPERFECTIONS

Have you ever gone on Social media, particularly WhatsApp and decide that you'll use a few moments to just go through statuses. You come across things that make you cringe, some make you happy, some make you sad and some brings out an ugly head that will just weaken your mind and break your self esteem. Very crazy indeed. From there you start asking yourself questions that can either build you up or bring you down. Everytime I create a new post on my blog, I go through a lot of doubts asking myself if it's good enough or if people actually read what I post or if it even creates a spark in someone's mind to keep pushing (Pushing P😂) and guess what, if the negative thought supercedes the positive, I'll just tell myself, "Wo, just give up abegggi" and to think I actually do it🙂. There's this song that lives rent-free in my head. I heard it from a Disney cartoon I watched years ago. "Look at me,  I would never pass for a perfect bride Or a perfect d...

Believe

Hi guys😊, I'm back from the very long break and I guess I was greatly missed 🤭. So our topic of discussion today is Believe.  It is a cure to fear. For those of you who remember, in our last session,  I said we are going to deal with how to overcome fear and voila, here we are.  Believe simply put means having faith in something or someone. Our focus is on believing in yourself and I mean you. Like I said before, Fear is a negative vibe that distabilises humans. So we can see Believe as a Positive vibe. Most times the human mind is weakened by what it sees, hears or feels and so it needs to be tricked into believing it can overcome. There was a particular time in my life when I just felt like I couldn't take it anymore. I just couldn't control what was happening in my life. To be sincere, I was scared of living. I came in contact with a friend who was living life like it will end the next day. She made me realize that there's nothing to be scared of especially since I...

Reality Sucks

 Yes Yes It sucks and I mean it.  Most times, we can't come to terms with happenings around us. We tend to dwell more in our minds and heads, not really caring if we are doing it right or not. I for one know what it's like prolly because I wallow in fantasies a lot but then if you keep on drowning yourself in your thoughts, you're paving ways for depression. Let's all come to terms with the saying that nothing lasts forever. Reality brings you out from the fantasy wall you've built into a world that's uncomprehending. This topic came from a thought in my head and boy did it take me a while to find words to give birth to this piece. For the first time since I started this blog, I had a writer's block and that's when it dawned on me that nothing is actually perfect. Things don't go smoothly all the time. Your reality might be scary, weird, blurry, confusing but that's what makes it reality . It's not a bed of Roses. In reality, shit happens. In...
