First blog! It feels so foreign writing/uploading for the blog, only because this is something I’ve always wanted to do, been wanting to build this precious thing that I’ve times without a number dreamt of doing, but one thing or the other kept coming in my way. This year, I decided to go harder than I ever have and it’s so satisfying to see all of my hard work come to life.
Celebrating or having my birthday approaching has never felt like I am significantly turning a year older or even growing old. This year feels otherwise different. Suddenly, the famous saying “I feel like my age” has become a reality for me.
Sometime last year, seating still and thinking for hours was a regular sport for me, I felt like I was thrown into the deep end. I had just graduated, applied for so many jobs, and got so many rejection emails, got frauded by a “friend”, not sure of which move to make. Waking up thinking about how I got here, what I have and have not been able to achieve, and things I hated about myself; on one of those thoughtful mornings, I decided to pray instead of thinking, and slowly I got on track with letting in positive thoughts when negative thoughts try to creep in. Truth is, we always can’t escape negative events from occurring, and also, I firmly believe that sometimes you have to be thrown into the deep end of your wants to see that it’s not really what God wants for you.
My life has evolved in such an amazing way. I have so many times experienced the good as well as the bad and I’m always so grateful when things come back full circle. I would be telling a big lie if I state that I’ve always been a rock-hard “stay happy every day” type of girl, but this new year of mine, things are going to be oh-so different! I’m going to start living more, working harder, and enjoying more (which I believe I’m already doing). My strategies have changed and my life’s aims and principles have also. Particularly, I’m revolving my life around my happiness, well-being, and my career. I’m working on being a pillar of happiness because I see so much value in it. I hope that all the hard work and man-hours I put into developing myself and my little brand flourishes most beautifully and that I get to reap its benefits.
I enjoy ranting about things going on with me, whether or not it makes sense (and I’m sure I scarcely do not make sense, hehe). So I guess, we’re gonna be seeing more posts like this. Thank you for reading, and I am so happy to have you here!
Also, I had a lovely day with a friend and took some beautiful pictures some days before my birthday. I ate gooodddd too!
I wish you all the happiest of days every day!
