Good day, my love bugs.
In theme with Easter, I will share a scripture that has been with me through it all.
“So let us not become afraid of doing good; for if we do not give up the time will come when we will reap the harvest” Galatians 6:9
A year older and hopefully wiser
Every year especially in April I become reflective of my life, choices, relationships etc. I also think it is because Easter takes place in April. The only thought that ran through my life this time around is gratitude. I am grateful to be alive on this birthday. I am glad I did not give up and I am glad to have had the courage to try new things more importantly for sticking true to myself. I have to come to love myself even with my imperfections. April of 2025 has been a beautiful month.
The 11th hour
On a phone call with a friend, I was describing life at this moment to feel like the 11th hour. Everything worked out last minute and everything miraculously came together at the last moment. I graduated recently from Wits a journey that has been rewarding but mostly so taxing. I often would question if I made the right decision or if I would ever graduate. I did the one thing that seemed impossible at one point and it feels great. Honestly, it has fuelled my hunger now I feel like I can achieve anything, I am not settling for anything else. I am also realizing that I have a lifetime to become everything I want or do anything I want. My university journey made me realize the importance of finishing what you started and sometimes the journey is about putting one foot in front of the other. For the longest time, I was worried about making the wrong decision which was a narrow perspective of looking at the premise of decision-making. Honestly, if I could graduate too. My life looks like my vision board and typing this feels insane. I did not think I would be in my first luxury apartment, in an affluent area with a job right after graduation. I am also working in an area I always dreamed of as a student. Telling myself that I deserve this is not luck but a result of persistence and hard work. The wellness gurus were right-things do get better!
Starting over
I am starting over. A new chapter awaits me and a new version of me. I am quite nervous and I would be lying if I said I do not miss my old life. The past four years shaped how I have become in my adult life. I miss where I used to live, I miss all the people I connected with and I miss my routine. Oh, how I miss sleeping in! I now have to do it all over again, I have faith I mean it is not like life leaves me a choice. How am I going to start making friends? Especially where everyone is afraid of being awkward or people dislike small talk and where everyone is on their phone? Wish me luck. Never be afraid to embrace change, it is a necessary part of life.
Till next time, Cheers!
