My Thoughts today...

I am learning to be assertive and let go when people have served their purpose in my life, its not easy but its OK, I am learning that there are seasons in life and as seasons go by so does people in my life too, some are there for a season and some are there for a life time but I am learning to be present through all seasons no matter how tough...God helps me through these seasons of transition...all the time.

ALSO another thing I am learning in this season is, just because someone is unresponsive to you for whatever reason it doesn't mean that I must change my way of doing things, if I am naturally caring, friendly and so on, just because one person fail to acknowledge me doesn't mean I must change my demeanor. Life is busy and so are we all however we need to decide to pause and "make" time for the ones whom we want to have in our lives. You can never be too busy for the people whom you love and enjoy being in your life.

if you are struggling with emotions especially negative ones like hurt, resentment, sadness, anger, unforgiveness do yourself a favor start unpacking it. Write it down, what are you feeling? Why are you feeling this way? To who are these feelings directed and why? Pen them down and afterwards let it go, burn it up, you will see how liberated you will feel. Be honest with yourself, Be honest with God (For me God is my sound board because He is always there even if I feel He isn't). its hard to find a tangible person whom you can be "real" with but once you start opening up to God from your very core it becomes easier to open up to one person and God will provide that person for you.

It's OKAY not be OKAY...

TODAY is one of those days I don't allow myself to have many of... A day where I am extremely emotional and teary and life seems to have gotten the better of me just for today. I don't tend to dwell on my negatives I am known to be the optimistic one and always positive however today I am far from that. I allow myself to be in this space because in this moments of being emotional and allowing myself to cry because they say tears are healing waters. I am very much aware of my surroundings and giving myself this space to just process every disappointment and whatever else I am dealing with. A close friend and mentor of mine told me a few months ago that I should learn to unpack things as they happen and not bottle it all up and then I explode when things just get too much. As a mother, wife and whatever else I am to whoever it all just got too much. Have you ever gotten to a point where you question "Why?"   "Why do I even bother talking non stop with my k...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...

Being a MOM

While I pride myself in being a Mom, a nurturer and everything that goes with it, I have been feeling much like a failure of late. My girls (especially the middle one and the eldest one) have been struggling in their schoolwork not the understanding of the work but the self discipline that goes with making progress at school. A week ago I sat on one of the benches at the station and just managing to at that time (7am ) of the morning to write notes to teachers in message books as I had kept the girls at home the previous Friday because I forgot to do it the night before. As I went from one message book t o the next I opened the last one that was my middle daughter’s and here two warnings and a nice message from her teacher stared at me. As I proceeded to read the note I was filled with anger and much disappointment... I completely became one of those ladies that just let it “rip” on the train station and yes the “nasty” mom came out you know the one where you switch to Afrik...
