I never kept my fingernails.
Not because I don't like long nails; it's just that they found their way to my mouth at any given time—I'm telling you, my fingers have minds of their own.
I'm sad, I bite.
I'm anxious, I bite.
I'm scared, I bite.
I think, I bite.
And the funniest, I'm hungry, I bite. Please don't judge me, and I won't do the same.
So, because of these claims, I didn't fancy it until a thought dropped coupled with a little threat. I decided to keep my left pinky, More like a little experiment.
Arrgh!
The frustration that came with keeping it kicked in. Mere staring at it brings triggers the urge to bite.
I was so anxious.
I even asked myself if it might be nice cause I won't even lie. I was scared. Yeah, insecurities kicked in.
But something in me kept calming my heart.
Fast-forward to this moment, I wonder why I didn't keep them all these while. Though, on average, it came out beautiful. I never imagined my nails looking all permed and sleek.
For more understanding, I uploaded pictures of my left and right pinky.
I know, I know. Either way, they're beautiful๐.
I'm just trying to paint a picture.
Biting off my fingernails had become a habit, but because I wanted to see change, I decided to challenge myself in a little way–but eh, I dey challenge myself o๐.
You've put in the effort. You've given all it takes. You've added the necessary one percent, and finally, you're in the waiting period.
Speak to your mind and say: Be chill.
Eventually, everything will fall into place.
Most times, the period of waiting makes people engage in decisions that can be disruptive to their already processed process. Trust me! The period is filling. Strenuous and stressful activities knocking back and forth.
It is important to note that you should indulge yourself in the things you love during this period because na person wey dey alive, dey see the better tomorrow.
So in as much as what you hope for tomorrow may seem huge, the little today should be protected, not minding the obstacles.
Oh well. We'll all be fine regardless.
Be of good faith and keep your chin high.
Till next time,
D.
