DON'T REMAIN IN OBLIVION

I had so many episodes this May.

By episodes I mean challenges, especially for my character.

I know I have many flaws, but it irks me when people try to talk to me regarding how to handle them because I feel naked. Like they have stripped me of my clothes and cast me into the market square.

Pretty embarrassing.

Well, I gave it some serious thought because in the end; I carry over ninety percent of the effects of the bad habits I exhibit.

I'm the direct hit, so if I don't change or turn a new leaf, I'll suffer.

So I took it upon myself to identify the bad traits in me and it'll surprise you to know that they're so many😩.

I used to think I was an okay human, one without stress because "I no too like wahala", one who smiles and waves and is quite nice to everyone until I examined myself.

This is how some of us come to conclusions about ourselves and without thinking, we feel entitled to some things because we think we're nice.

You expect good things to come your way because you think you're good, meanwhile you don't see what they see. You're blinded by yourself, by an overpowering ego.

Examinations are important.

Without them, you remain in oblivion.

Since I made this decision, it seems like every day is a test for me. 

It's like my eyes are now open to see the things that'll push me to act out.

I've fallen so many times, but I know I'm also learning. 

I will get there.

You want to be a better you and you can.

Pick out those annoying traits and make a plan to address them.

I have to stop here. 

It's been a whirlwind of a month!

School really showed me her true colors.

Money left me hanging.

People became busy.

But I survived and so will you because God dey!

Till next time,

D.
