CHILL! THE RESULTS WILL SHOW




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. 



My left pinky

My right pinky


I know, I know. Either way, they're beautiful๐Ÿ˜.

 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 o๐Ÿ˜‚.


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.

Believe

Hi guys๐Ÿ˜Š, I'm back from the very long break and I guess I was greatly missed ๐Ÿคญ. 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...

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 P๐Ÿ˜‚) 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 it๐Ÿ™‚. 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...

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...
