Not moved by…

What I see.

Lately, it’s been one roller coaster experience in my life as a girl/ woman and as a daughter, the responsibilities that at times I loved to evade finally held me at a corner and I couldn’t evade them.

And I have suddenly grown to get on and do them the best way I can, I have no way out of this one.

Finally my mum surgery was successful and she’s home healing. And the mantle has been passed to me, to take care of her as she had done for me.

Here I am, doing adult stuff like grocery shopping of which I wasn’t a big fan because of carrying foodstuffs and having to choose who has the best produce at the best price, yes it seemed tiring but look at me getting this right, it wasn’t hard at all but lifting the shopping had my hands in pain, serves me right, huh?

I didn’t know that I had it in me to do some of the things, I now do. Holding the fort, taking charge of the ship and running it! Being a woman or a mother ain’t no joke there are lots of decisions that have to be made in a day to run a home. I salute all the mothers!

Sleep has become more enjoyable since being exhausted has a way of making me sleep like a log. This is a chapter in my book that is teaching me about being patient, resilient, empathetic and be more open to understand a person and be selfless.

What has kept me from not throwing in the towel even as I’m back to school and accepting responsibilities, is having faith and hope that even through this lessons of life, it’s an opportunity to get refined as a person, learn more about myself, my character and who I choose to trust as my anchor.

Some of the music that have been on my playlist that over and over again are:

  • Even Here by Rebekah Dawn
  • Even when it hurts by Hillsong Worship
  • Your Spirit by Tasha Cobb’s
  • Resurrecting by Elevation Worship
  • Amenifanyia Amani(He has given me Peace) by Paul Clement -a Swahili song

Music has a way of soothing the soul and comforting a restless heart.

PS: You are capable of doing more than you think you can
