Wear A Tight Pant

…WEAR A TIGHT PANT Jasmine learnt from her aunt that when a man tells you he loves you, you need to weigh it on the scale of time and not on the weight of the moment. She learnt that emotional feelings and utterances can be inspired by popular circumstances and spur of the moment. She also learnt that candle night and sumptuous dinners doesn’t equal true love. This she learnt is also momentary and could be done almost by anybody. She also learnt that true love is real and not a myth. When you find one or one finds you, your heart tingles. Jasmine, also had a hard time believing that spoken words doesn’t always equal love. She further learnt that words and actions also does not equal true love. This she saw from the late night movies at grandma’s house that words and actions could be acted to make a fool of a vulnerable bae. She is most surprised at how often men and women used the words “BAE and BOO” without any endearment in their hearts. That’s why, she often refers to Fred as FRED nothing more. Jasmine, further learnt from her next door neighbor that been someone’s wife; doesn’t mean they will not try to cheat on you if the occasion rises. She often hears her uncle Lane telling his friends that it’s a man’s world. Many I’m sorry and exotic dinners will make the pain go away. She observed he was right anyway. Jasmine did not understand why Mr. Cole played wife with his daughter, until her mother warned her sternly to mind her business. Such business, are often hard to mind she thought aloud. Jasmine, now know and have seen a lot, so she decided to wear a tight pant; until someone strong, eligible and pristine un-tighten it _ so did jasmine.

  Maybe You’re Closer to Your Miracle Than You Think For so long, you had no doubts, no fears — just a fervent faith in what God has assured you through His Word. You rejoiced in your tribulations, sharing earnestly with others as though you were already living in your miracles. Your friends couldn’t understand why you felt so much joy despite the storms in your life. You cared deeply for your neighbour’s children, your nieces and nephews — you were everyone’s favourite aunty or uncle because of the warmth, generosity, and light that radiated from you. Everyone waited for your opinion before making important decisions. Sometimes, your words became the confirmations others needed to move forward with a project, relationship, or calling. You continued steadfastly in prayers and thanksgiving — from NSPPD , to the Hallelujah Challenge , to the fiery prayers of Mountain of Fire and every other praise and prayer gathering within your environment and online. With this, your faith...

Finding Closure

 Finding Closure Our lives are often a potpourri of events and circumstances that shape us—defining who we are and who we are becoming. Many spend years trying to find closure from an event—or series of events—that altered their very existence. From the chaotic memories of a once "happily ever after" to the longing for a true soulmate, we all carry stories waiting to be laid to rest. It could be the slow fading of a once tightly-knit relationship, the sting of unexpected loneliness, or the crushing weight of a loved one’s passing. It may be the pain of fruitless efforts despite tireless labour, or a medical condition that rewrote every part of your world. There’s the journey of losing and regaining faith—the wilderness moments. The people we left behind, the ones who left us. The doors we closed, those shut against us, and those that never opened. The pleasant. The unpleasant. The failures that pushed us forward, and those that knocked us backward—leaving us feeling like we’r...

Waiting Deception

When you have waited for something for so long that the wait feels endless and exhausting, an angel called “Waiting Deception” begins to whisper. It whispers that the caution you once believed was wisdom was actually pride. Suddenly, you begin to wonder how saying an obvious no—something your faith and morals once resisted—now feels normal. It is the same voice that convinced my friend, who had been trusting God for the fruit of the womb, that her abusive ex must have been her soulmate—simply because he now has three children, despite inflicting domestic violence on his wife. Perhaps, the voice suggested, motherhood would have softened the blows, made them lighter, easier to bear. It is the whisper that draws your attention to the speed of your ticking biological clock and reminds you—mercilessly—of the boxes of expected dreams you have not been able to tick. It exaggerates your shame, spotlights your failures, and tells you where—and when—not to show up. Slowly, it silences you until ...
