GROWTH: APRIL WISDOM
Hey my lovelies, I hope I
find you well, I am pretty good, well much better than I was a week ago. Coming
here to share a thing or two always makes me so liberated and happy. Each time I
don't do it I feel like I haven’t visited my therapist forever, and it’s my
greatest wish that every other day you drop by to find comfort and peace just
like I do.Just a reminder, whoever you are just know that you have a friend in me, one who will
listen whenever you feel like sharing anonymously, through email or commenting,
Lets grow together. I would also love to extend to my gratitude to every one of
you who checks up on me when I go MIA, or go too quiet for too long, It’s
always a good feeling to know that you are living and some people actually
think of, encourage you and always once in a while want to hear from you, I do
it for you, I do it for us, Thank you.
So here I am just minding my
own busy and constantly paying attention and learning from my environment and
people around me with the ultimate goal of achieving growth, the month of April
sure managed to throw many life lessons to my face, and for that I am grateful.
I would like to share a number of lessons I learnt from this beautiful month of
April (I secretly wish it ends already, I mean it sure wasn’t one of the best
this year). We told ourselves to see beauty in every situation, so give
yourself some credit, you are learning beautiful, tell yourself “one step at a
time”, we are getting there. I hope you get reminded of these things, and
always remember that growth is necessary, and sometimes it comes in really
uncomfortable means, so be ready to be out of your comfort zone, if you wish to
keep moving. Learn a thing or two.

You
are the seed that was buried, they didn’t know you will strive and be the
biggest ,most fruitful tree:
You
are too special to be buried underground sweetheart, when they tried to bury
you they had no idea you have germination powers, they prepared a stage for
you, you didn’t know existed. Had they not buried you, you could have remained
a dry seed that was barely going to see its fruition. I learnt that sometimes
for me to grow I need to be planted, buried deep under so that I will fight
through the ground and be someone even much more worthy. I learnt this the
hardest way, and I still am but April had some of this education in store for
me, it sure delivered, man it did!!!
 |
| Rejoice to you fruition, you are a buried seed germinating to its best ability, you will grow to be a big tree that will provide the best shade and the juiciest fruits!!! |

No matter
what, there are those few people that will root for you, they always have, they
always will:
Never
ever think that you are alone, sometimes it might feel like so but trust me,
there is always someone always cheering you on, wishing you the best, praying
for you, giving you support. I know sometimes we wish that these people be loud
about it, show it vividly, but trust me they already are, just sometimes when
we are going through bad it always feel magnified and more than it really is,
it’s always so loud and seems so big, we barely see clearly but these people
are always there. You are never alone. Just let them love you, let them in,
give them more than you expect to get from them, open up, try to see from a
clearer view, you can do it, you just don’t try hard enough, because you are
always feeling pain in its magnified form, trust the mind has power it pulls
unimaginable stunts.

Its
ok not to be ok :
Your
struggles are real, and they are allowed, you are human not a robot, you have
feelings and of course it’s going to hurt. Just because you are a positive
person, and you try to remain positive and see good in every situation, it’s
not a crime to feel vulnerable, to cry, to feel pain, to feel weak. You are a
person that lives with people, and sometimes people as they are disappoint you,
take advantage of you, hurt you and all sorts, the world is real, it’s a brutal
truth but the world is evil, admit that some days are worse than others, its
liberating, you will always leave room for disappointing, don’t be naïve like I
am sometimes.
I grew up over-protected with love and everything, I was taught
to love, to be kind, to give and give too much, I thought still do think that
people are as nice as I am and I allow them to hurt me in the process (and I am
learning to leave room for disappointment and not give people too much credit),
but it could be happening to you, you give too much and just are naïve of the
brutality in the world, its ok to cry and hurt, its ok to admit that it
happens, forgive and move on, but allow yourself to hurt and learn.

Not
all that glitters is gold:
I’m
sure that you have heard this a gazillion times, but yeah you might have
forgotten and my purpose here is to remind you, that not all that is glamorous
is exactly as that. Usually people show us what they want us to see, I do that
too, everybody does, who wants to show their dirty laundry in public, NOBODY,
and with this social media technology blessed us with, everybody is a millionaire
and is making it in life #laughs, it’s a sham ya’ll, don’t envy so and so’s
relationship, lifestyle and all that you don’t know what’s happening behind
closed doors, that’s as far as we can go , Instagram and the slammed shut
doors. Mind your own business, and make sure it flourishes at your best pace,
do not envy anyone. Of course we are human, we are made to compare, to be
envious, to want the best, let it be a drive to you working smarter at your
relationship, your passion, your job, whatever it is, Just know that not all
that looks glittery is actually glittery.

Love
is a beautiful thing:
Of
course I didn’t just learn only negative, c’mon you thought April was just bleeh
all the way, No! It has its own beautiful highlights, I got a friend who got married
and we had like one of the most funniest days ever in April. Love goes a long
way and it builds families and relationships and lasting friendships, I got my
own share and I am loving it. Also no matter what I am going through like I already
mentioned I have people who
unconditionally love me and I am constantly reminded of their undying love, I
mean I am one of the hardest people to love, I am a nut-head and difficult most
of the times, but I am loved regardless and like always love conquers all, every
time, Love wins always remember that.
· Just
as much as you are secretly a threat to someone’s existence, you are a role
model in another’s life:
This
is another good thing I learnt in this month, that always have good intentions
because someone looks up to you, whatever you do, do it the best way possible so you keep inspiring
the one person that looks up to you whilst you are unaware. I was really
shocked to find out that there are people who actually look up to me and also
wish me well. I was put on spot, I don’t want to lie , but in a good way, I was
motivated to never give up, because if I ever do the one or two persons I am an
inspiration to will have less people to look up to and I don’t want that to
happen. Not on my watch.

| Meeting life head on like...develop a strong positive attitude towards life and meet it head on... |
As much as you would like to deny it, there are things
you do right, and you do them even better someone appreciates that and you keep
them going, Always remember to give your best shot, anywhere, everywhere on
anything and everything because someone is watching to learn from you, you don’t
want to let them down, they are counting on you.
Always
be reminded of these things and you are a Step forward to living and /or maintaining
your best life and of course GROWTH!!!
