AFTER WORK RITUAL

 I cannot fathom how people work an 8 to 5 job each and everyday. I work every other week and boy do I get worn out. After work, I have devoted my time to grabbing some ice cream on my way home and it is something I count down to everyday. It is a way to calm and relax my nerves. In short, it pieces me back together.



On that point, we all feel different after long hours of work and we need to unwind, therefore, it is very important for us to indulge in activities that make us, us. Activities that bring back our sanity. Having ice cream is just one way of doing just that, and dad has since jumped on the bandwagon and it is now a father-daughter "thing", besides bonding over wine.

Certain people prefer to keep to themselves after work, but sometimes your ritual is your gateway to bonding with your loved ones (family and friends). Find something to do that relaxes you and enjoy doing it while you are at it.

Affirmation: I am peace.

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...

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...

SELF IMPROVEMENT

Rome was not built in one day. I am sure some of us, if not all, have hit a brick wall trying to figure ourselves out. I recall a point in my life, some years back I acknowledged and accepted that the most toxic person in my life was myself. I love to see my family, friends any anyone around me happy and was always bending to put them first in everything. My toxic trait was putting everyone first and expecting them to reciprocate and they did not even try.  Long story short, I looked within and asked myself why I felt the need to always be there for everyone and why I always neglected myself. Time allowed me these tiresome experiences, which led to my realisation that people were not the problem, I was. I had to start putting my needs and wants ahead of others. I took a leap of faith to detach myself from the world and be available to the parts of myself I had long neglected. Day after day, well thats an exaggeration, but week after week, I pushed myself to focus on my craft a...
