That’s Okay
Not everyday is a good day and, That’s okay. How do you rise when you haven’t fallen? You win some, you loose some and, That’s okay. Not everyone will love you. And even those that love you do so for a reason and, That’s okay. Baby! Loving yourself is the best kind. People will not…… Continue reading That’s Okay
UNTITLED
My life inexperience and consequential ignorance makes it impossible to speak on certain matters but in the words of Richard Ayoade, I’m trying to reach a word count here.

What Motivates You?

Thankful and Humbled
We are often fixated on the things we don’t have and all those things that went wrong in our lives whether as a result of our own mistakes or the mistakes of others. It’s easy to compare our lives to that of those we think are making it. It is much easier to blame others…… Continue reading Thankful and Humbled
Sweet Nettins
when you’re whispering sweet nettins, remember that i am a sucker for them, your words, so much having the semblance of butter, sometimes sweet as sugar, other times your words are deep like coconut-covered chocolate, mmm, but when i find out that there is someone else, someone else taking my place, it’s goodbye forever, if…… Continue reading Sweet Nettins
