Celibacy

 Dear Diary,

1:49pm Nigerian Time 🇳🇬

When I was in school, I had always imagine how the celibate live life without being tempted or having urges. But today, I couldn't imagine I will one day be celibate. There are times sexual urges come, I just have to live with that. I am single. I don't have a boyfriend and I am not searching. I want to make something good out of my life. It's been rocky and stormy. I hope I come to a time where everything will be alright. I hope I come to a time where I have my own home, a happy family and nobody abuses and rules over me anymore. It has not been easy. Being a Nigerian child and growing up in an abusive Nigerian home has not been easy. And being a woman didn't make it easier. Sexual harassment everywhere. Every man wants to sleep with me before they give me a job. Friends are not friends anymore without benefits and sexual pleasure. People behave like they no longer go to church or listen to the word of God. I hope better times come because as it is now, I am so hopeless.

BE INTENTIONAL

Image
 I say this again and again. Be intentional about anything you want in life. Be intentional about your journey, your dreams, your wants and your healing. Along my healing journey, I discovered the power of intentions. Say what you want and stick to it. Do what you want to do and stick to it. Be consistent at it. Choose what makes you happy and that which fulfills you. Don't chose anything for yourself because a friend said so, your parents said so or everyone said so. Do things with intention. Have a purpose and the reason you do the things you do. Focus! Always focus. There are a whole lot of distractions out there that can make you stumble if you are not focused. Be intentional about your healing. Personally, I had to say no to dating and marriage until I healed completely. I don't want to repeat the mistakes I saw my mother or any other woman did. I want peace and calmness. This is why I take my education seriously and dedicate years to building up myself. I can't imagin...

Everyday Gratitude

Image
 Today I am grateful for life. I am grateful for good health. I am grateful for peace. Just being happy without anything being responsible for it. I am grateful for all the things I have in my life. I am grateful for my friends and the good people I have around me. I am grateful for love. I haven't found one yet but I am grateful. I am grateful for slow living. Waking up everyday, not rushing over anything and just living. So far, the feeling is wonderful. And I learned to trust God through the frustrations, obstacles, fears, tears and rejections. In my life I have seen the power of God. This is why I keep myself for Him and stay faithful to Him. No matter who I turn out to be, I will be grateful to God. I have gone through a lot already but each day, I thank God that those obstacles, bitterness and frustrations never took my life. I kept living. So everyday I live, breathe and see a new day, I give God praises.  Elizabeth Diaries ❤️
