Don't rush

 Dear Diary,

10:42pm Nigerian Time 🇳🇬

I love writing at this hour. At this hour everyone is settled on bed and everywhere is quiet, except for the generator's noise. I have pretty been shocked or surprised for rushing or jumping into something. I feel, life shouldn't be rushed. Especially in moment of trauma and pains. In moment when you are hopeless and no one can comfort or fill the empty vacuum. I feel, life shouldn't be rushed in moment of trials, denial and betrayals. Life needs time. Time reveals all good things and condemns evil. Time heals just as writing heals. Life has taught me to be patient. Nothing last forever. A little time cold, a little time warmer. Things fade away so easily. 

I won't rush anything. I will take my time and see what life unfolds for me. I will give myself time to be happy and time to be sad. Time to heal and time to move on. I have been terribly hurt and in pains. Some days were horrible and I thought I will never survive the next day. I met some mean and a few heartless humans. I have been deceived, I have been lied to but still, I don't rush. 

There is this joy in taking time to do what's best for you. There is this joy in knowing how many terrible mistakes you have escaped. It pays to truly be patient and not rush.

Dear Diary, I will be here even in the next three years. I promise, I will grow with you. My pains, my success, my heartbreak, I will write it all down here. I don't care who reads them so long as I am happy. I won't rush, I will be here with you.

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 ❤️
