Plenty troubles of life can make it look like you have become an ‘olodo’
Back-to-back adversity can make you look directionless
Because you are fighting to stay alive and sane
While others with fewer battles seem to be gliding through life
The many burdens you carry become heavier thereby slowing down your everyday progress
While I may not understand why some people have it easier than others
I know we don’t get to choose much of our lots in life.
People may not understand what you are going through.
But I know what it means to go through so many challenges year to year
I mean real troubles like terminal sickness, death of a loved one, big-time financial loss, abandonment and so much more.
But coming from a sister who has weathered so many storms of life in her few decades of existence
I can tell you that no matter the torrents in which they come, and no matter how long they last, they will never be forever.
On some days, all you need to do is ensure you stay alive
Don’t compare your journey to anyone
Our times and seasons are different
Take it one day at a time
Have goals that show the beautiful life you desire
Break down the goals into small actionable steps
Take consistent action always
Forgive yourself
Criticise yourself less
Stop looking down on yourself
Be kind to you
Love the Lord with all your heart because he is your surest anchor
Stay alive against all odds
Someday, the battles will end
And the sun will shine brightly on you
I believe in you.
