WE ARE JUST FINE!

                                               

Absolutely,do not let people's opinion distract you-your purpose came way long  before anyone's opinion.

THE NEW HAS COME!

             

Pregnancy is like a tremendous abdication of control,something growing inside you which would eventually usurp your life.

Whether your pregnancy was meticulously planned,medically coaxed or happened by surprise,one thing is certain-your life will never be the same.

This is because pregnancy will open you to new possibilities,you will understand life much better now that one grew inside you,your baby will make your love stronger,your days shorter,nights longer,bankroll smaller,home happier,clothes shabbier,the past forgotten and the future worth living for.

BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD.

                                   THIS IS FOR YOU!!

STILL GREAT!

YOU ARE STILL WORTHY,YOU ARE STILL DESTINED                                  FOR GREATNESS

Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins.A lot of times we beat ourselves up because we just cant seem to seem to get it all together.

Some people will tell you that your life ended when you had your baby,truth is, your life has just begun.And you're lucky you had to start experiencing life at a young age.

Your child will not take away from your future,your child will give you a new one.Being a mother is not about what you gave up to have a child but what you gained from one.

Motherhood is not a hobby,it is a calling.It is not something to do if you can squeeze the time in.It is what GOD gave you time for.

Being a young parent means you met your angel a little early and as such you will get to love her/him a little longer.

Your baby/babies will know you in a way no one ever has,they will open you to things you never knew existed.

They will drive you to insanity and push you to your depths.They are the beat of your heart,the pulse of your veins and the energy in your soul.

You probably don't know that it is possible to grow through motherhood,but it is.

There's no way to be a perfect mother but a million ways to be one.

And one of them is securing your future because you can only secure your child's life if you secure yours too.

What are you doing to better yourself this very moment?

You cannot spend your life thinking that you deserve a handout or sympathy.You have to get up and start thriving towards your goal.No one ever stumbled upon something great while still sited,lying ,wallowing or having themselves a pity party.YOU HAVE GOT TO MOVE!

Step out of that zone and don't conform to the molds that many people ascribe to you.

If its that college degree,that high school education you are yet to finish,work on it.It is not going to be easy but it will be worth it in the long run.It is easy to be pleasant when life flows along like a song but the wise man will still hold a smile even though the pendulum of his life seems to oscillate from how things don't work out to what on earth is he supposed to do to things better.SO SMILE!

Therefore take pride in your education and push yourself past people's obvious disgust of your situation,remember the society is also made up of scoundrels,neer'do wells who do nothing but utter infantile comments about you but the good thing is that it defines who they are,not you.

Years from now, you will look back with nothing but tender,heartfelt memories,from that first smile,to her first steps,first day at school etc.A zoetrope of the memories and a palette of their life/lives will run in your mind and you'll have the biggest smile ever.Because you made it!

 

Is it always easy?heck no! But does that have to do with your age?Absolutely not!

So hang in there and don't let anyone get you down,because in spite of-or maybe it is because of-your young age,you will flourish.Motherhood is a job you were born to do.

You should therefore teach your kid(s) to look to GOD and not man for validation and worth because GOD is the author and finisher of her faith.Help her fear only GOD and not man

And remind her that the mission field f home is a battle ground worth fighting for.

                                     

                                                YOU'RE STILL SOMEBODY!

 

                              IT'S OKAY TO LOVE AGAIN.

It's okay to move on from the past and the person 

that hurt you.

Don't block your happiness because you cant let go 

of the pain.

Sometimes we can be so hung up on a situation that didn't

work out that we end up missing on a potential blessing.

HEAL BEFORE YOU DEAL

And allow yourself to feel something real again.

Everyone is not out to break your heart.

Everyone is not out to play you for a fool.

Learn from all you have been through.

GROW WISE.

And then patiently open yourself back to the idea of being in love again.

                         It's okay to love again.

                                          GRATITUDE

Gratitude is an emotion expressing appreciation for what one has,it is being thankful,grateful and appreciative regardless of some situations in life that tears us down.

Some events that occur in life lower our self esteem to a point where we cant get back on our feet and feel unworthy.

One thing we need to understand is,in order to move on to the next chapter in life especially if the last one was unpleasant,we need to increase our self esteem.

Self esteem is the attitude towards ourselves and goes hand in hand with how worthy of love we feel.

Develop positive thoughts and emotions,they will increase yourself esteem.

Through certain events in our lives,we may learn some untruths like we are not worthy of love.

Let me tell you that you already are priceless,amazing,excellent and outstanding.

Give you some love and celebrate yourself in every possible way.

Don't dwell on what others say about you,learn to not be in need of people's validation all the time,learn to congratulate yourself.Nobody is happy for you but yourself.

When you feel grateful for the people,situations,events that have challenged you and weren't exactly what you wanted to happen,chances are you will love your life eve more.

With gratitude.you can lift yourself out of fear or depression and see how truly good things are no matter what is going on in your life.

Do not let your circumstances break everything you've worked so hard to be.

Remember you are confined by the walls you build yourself,therefore be grateful and thankful for the situations you went through and survived.,we don't fail but learn.

Push yourself beyond every comfort zone,play your part wholeheartedly,where your strength ends is the place GOD begins.By Him you win.

besides being a blogger,i am a poet..i have read and written so many poems.

 DAWN ARISES.

The darkness breathes in soft cascade
until there peeks a light
along horizon,s misty view
I contrast to the night
with fingertips of reds and goods
the dawn is creeping out and colours hit the earthen stage
as daylight starts to sprout.


I hear a rustle in the trees
Some twittering and more
As nature wakes in tandem with
dawn opening its door,
The suddenly the light cascades
with her regalia dress 
across the land night's blanket lifts 
revealing days finesse.


Across the sky more changes come
unmasking skies of blue
and down below there,s verdant
beneath the melting dew
the subtitles of dawn are shifting like a symphony
the prelude has now moved on to
a dancing rhapsody


A sense of peace pervades the stage
in visible caress
as colour waves with vivid smiles
unbuttoning nights dress
But still the token moon is there
I see her fade away
And watch as nature's boldness flairs
while coming out to play


My eyes have seen a palette of
the many shades of drawn
I watch the stars becoming blind
And know where they have gone.
The fan of dawn has blessed the day
and spread across the sky
with brushstrokes from a feathered tip
I'm left holding a sign.
