 Today I am grateful for I am grateful for life. I am grateful for seeing the month of September. I am grateful for happiness. I am grateful for the ability to journal my past, present and future. I am grateful I discovered blogging. It has helped me in various ways. I am grateful for slow living. I try not to rush anything or do things that are way above me. I am grateful I can fix my problems without being too emotional. I am grateful that sometimes I can make decisions without my emotions interfering. I am grateful for self love and care. In a suppose selfish and carefree world, this is what has kept me sane. I am grateful, now I no longer blame anyone for my problems. I face my problems while ensuring I avoid toxicity. I am grateful I am still single and discovering myself. It has never been in my plan to marry early. I wished to build my career first before marriage. I probably can't tell the kind of person I would be getting married to, so it's good to do first thing firs...

Dear Diary, It's been a long time since I wrote this way. I forgot so soon how writing or chatting with a friend feels like. Today, I am grateful for; Love I am grateful for self care and self acceptance. I am grateful for happiness. I am grateful for peace. I am grateful for life. I am grateful for living life at 25. Some days, it is happy, fun, interesting, entertaining while some days, it is dark, sad, gloomy and bitter. I love every bit of the journey. I have learnt a lot from others especially from my parents and older sister. I am grateful I have food on my table and water to drink. I am grateful for healing. I am grateful for growth. I am grateful for everything. Elizabeth Diaries ❤️  

 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 ❤️

Elizabethokondiaries.blogspot.com Today I am grateful for life. I am grateful I am single. And I don't have a serious responsibility apart from taking care of myself and blogging my experiences. I am grateful I am able to love myself, accept my flaws, my body size and shape and my skin colour. I am grateful for my family member who had a successful operation. This is a story for another day. I shall share the story with you all soon. I have nothing really going on in my life but I am grateful for the life I have in me. I am grateful for embracing slow living. I am grateful for the holidays. I eat, relax, rest, sleep, blog, cook, wash, clean, chat, and take it over the next day. I have been to the hospital and I have witnessed that life is worth living. And you won't appreciate life and good health until you are inflicted with pains and sickness. A young girl was operated on. She had appendicitis, another fibroid, another a baby. And they all went successful. So I am really grat...

Self-care has helped me so far. Through it I have compassion, love, mercy and empathy to myself and others. This is how I care for myself. 1. I do the things I love. It is stress free and enjoyable. I read, I journal. I write out my feelings, thoughts and emotions. This clears my mind. 2. I make a new hair. It relaxes and relief stress. 3. I live in the present.

Today I am grateful for life. I went to shopping, deposited money into my savings account and I came back home washing all my dirty clothes. Then I rested. I bought bathing soap, toothpaste, Vaseline and I added a bit of vitamin E to it. I am told vitamin E clears skin. I got fruits too; Watermelon, banana, pineapple and groundnut. It feels good enjoying the money I worked hard for. And yes, I bought data bundles too. And I wrote down all expenditure into my handy journal to keep track of my finance and how I spend money. Today, I am grateful for life. Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

Today, I am so happy. I just got paid. I got paid my salary. My third time of getting paid for a job, not as a Corper but as a worker. I promised to save 5% of my salary every month. It feels good working for your money. It feels good leaving the house every day. Work is power. Money is power. I had chose taking a paid job even if the pay is small, starting from somewhere rather than staying all day at home idle, looking for trouble or probably gossiping with the neighbors. So from 7:00 am, I leave for work then go back home by 3:00pm, everyday except on weekends. And when I am at home, I engage myself in work and hobbies. I use my free time to write and create content. Still on the issue of getting a school closed to home, I really need to check schools close to home because I spend so much money on transportation. A month I spend more than 8k on transportation which is so draining. I need a school close to home as soon as possible. And I also have to take care of myself too. So, righ...

Today I thank God for life, for peace and happiness. I am living at the moment, enjoying my life, meditating and praying, resting, relaxing and taking care of myself. I have learnt to let go of worries and things that I can't change. I have learnt to leave everything to universe and God.  Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

It's been a long time here since 26 May. I am grateful for life and for witnessing the last day in the month of May. Today I went to work and forgot to put on bra. Nobody noticed it except me. I am happy that nothing happened on the way that required everyone pulling off their clothes. Work is so stressful but I enjoy it anyway. The senior students would be starting their NECO examination by July and I am wishing them success in their examinations. Today has been so stressful. I thank God for life.  Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

Today I am grateful for life. I am grateful for all the good things of life. I am grateful for the grace of moving to and fro without an accident. I am grateful I would be witnessing children's day tomorrow. I wish I had kids at home. I love babies so much. Yesterday was African Day and I am so proud of being an African, a Nigerian woman. I proud of African culture, tradition and norms. I proud of our delicious meals and food. I am proud of my own tribal food, wears and language. I am a Nigerian from Cross River State, residing in the economic city of Calabar. I speak Efik, Ibibio and English language fluently. Today I am so grateful for life. Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

Today I am grateful for life, I am grateful for health and the good things of life I am basically enjoying. I am grateful for happiness. I am grateful for peace.  Elizabeth Diaries ❤️

Having been deceived for so long, sometimes I imagine if God is really real. But today I am grateful for life. I am grateful to God...opps! Yes God. I trust Him and I believe that Him alone can save me. It has been a hectic journey. Sometimes happy, sometimes tough, sometimes bitter I don't have any friend to talk to or console me. I just thank God for everything, because nothing is a waste. My pains, my bitter experiences, the emotional turmoil, the illness all is for a lesson and for my good. I told you all that I have been struggling with an abusive father. I have tried all possible ways to break free from him but I just can't. It is more like a charm or some form of diabolism. I just don't know and he is really not telling everyone the truth. I have experienced toxic parenting and even witness their abusive marriage. It has never been easy. So each day I wake up alive, I thank God for another opportunity to live life. I don't know when I will be free from this bonda...
