Finding happiness, Progress and Weight gain journey.

 Thinking back to 2014, memories of living free and being completely happy come back to mind. It was a year of many open doors and opportunities. Four years later I could barely enjoy doing anything as school had managed to take the life out of me. Nevertheless, being home has allowed me time to reflect and honestly find happiness within. Part of this journey meant that I had to start putting effort and more time into the things I loved. I.e writing. 


Many a times we forget how blessed we are. If you and I have a talent why not use it for the greater good and share it with others? It could have a positive impact on them. I found the will to motivate myself to start writing again. Writing because I enjoy it and I thought my thoughts were worthy to be read by another. So week after week, I put in progress. Not only in writing but also coming up with new ideas of how I can reach a bigger audience. And hoping that my will to write never dies. 

Progress may be slow but good things take time. Amidst the chaos of writing and creating content for my other platforms, I thought one more challenge would not be a bad idea. Gaining weight. My love my body do not get it twisted but I thought a couple few pounds would not be bad. Wanted to look like someone who has completed school, lol. Whoever that looks. You get the point. And I have been at it for a couple of few months and I am loving the results. This is one thing I thought I would not achieve at it. I thought I was pushing it. There’s more in the works and I will definitely share with you guys as we grow. 

In short, finding happiness for me as been to re center my focus on myself by putting in effort into my work and challenging myself to achieve that which I honestly think I cannot achieve. It about believing that I, alone is enough to make I and what I think work out. And celebrating the littlest of my achievements. You too, can do it.

INCITEMENT

I have rewritten this three times and I could not think of better people to write about other than my family members. Their goals and attributes have added to my upbringing one way or another. And I chose these specifically because I love them unconditionally. Mr dad : if he could still tuck up into bed and tell us bed time stories he would. He is full of stories and is ever making people laugh. He makes everyone comfortable from the word go. He literally never sees any bad in any person. A good listener too. Mrs Mum : has always taught us that we are good enough and should go after whatever we believe in. Her childhood stories never end. Always cooking. And always optimistic.  Boo : was once my best friend but decided to get married, breaking my heart in two. Knows how to have fun without a worry. Someone you can tell your problems to.  Sister sister : my duplicate. ready to exchange birth certificates because I really do believe I was suppose to be the last born. The only hu...

"HERE'S TO STRONG WOMEN: MAY WE KNOW THEM, MAY WE BE THEM, MAY WE RAISE THEM"

International Women's Day is celebrated every March 8th, a moment taken to celebrate women's achievements in every field and used as a day to acknowledge the journey toward equality. Growing into an international movement with the spotlight of issues of education, equal pay and leadership. Women have bridged gaps in arts, politics, sports, science and business. With inspiration drawn from the likes of Serena Willians, Maya Angelou and Rosa Parks. Not forgetting mothers, healthcare workers, teachers, activists and entrepreneurs in charge of shaping our day to day lives. However, challenges persist. Issues run roots deep in discrimination, gender based violence, education and wage gaps. We all have a role to play to bridge the existing gaps. This can be done by advocating for change in workplaces and communities, supporting organisations which support women, educating ourselves and the masses by highlighting the many struggles faced by women, supporting women based businesses and...

DRESS TO IMPRESS

  There is an unexplainable sense of happiness and self-assurance that comes when we know we are dressed in an outfit that we absolutely love. It is not about waiting for compliments from others; it is about finding the confidence within ourselves to walk with our heads held high, radiating positivity and contentment. Feeling great in what we wear can have a remarkable impact on our overall attitude and mindset. When we dress in an outfit that resonates with our personal style, we celebrate our individuality. It is not about conforming to societal norms but embracing the unique aspects of our personality. Whether it is a bohemian inspired dress, a tailored suit or a quirky ensemble, being true to ourselves brings a genuine smile to our faces. This self-expression becomes a reflection of who we are, reminding us that we are worthy of feeling undeniably confident just as we are.  Have you noticed how wearing an outfit you adore can be an instant confidence booster? It is lies de...
