Self love

 Sometimes, I feel like I'm losing love for myself. I feel so insecure, and I start hating my flaws. I feel like I'm not enough. I just can't adore myself. It seems like I couldn't see my own worth. There are times where I just hate seeing myself in the mirror. And sometimes, I cry over the fact that I can't change myself. I want to be someone else. I want to be like the others who confidently accept and love themselves. I just can't find reasons to love myself right now. I feel like a failure; I feel like I am so worthless; and I feel like I am not someone who is worthy of being loved.


There are times where I question my worth and hate myself a lot. The truth is, I don't know how to love myself. I'm having a hard time accepting that I am not always good enough. That sometimes, I fail, I break, and I disappoint too many people. I find it really hard to love myself. Maybe someday I'll regret it, and maybe that day I'll finally realize how much I deserve to be loved by myself.

    Maybe you need to begin appreciate your small wins daily, begin by looking at how far you come,the little things you have achieved,scores you got against all the odds,look around your peers and rate yourself better regardless

Appreciation. 🙏🙏

 I know we suddenly stopped talking with each other and I stopped chasing you and we became strangers. To tell the truth, I'm beginning to accept that it's what it is. There are some things that we can't force to happen just to make it happen, even though I desperately wanted this to work even once for my genuine love would be reciprocated. I already knew in the first place that it would end up like this if I took the risk, but I'm still thankful for the lessons I've learned not only in love; but also in life. Loving you made me feel my worth. You are the reason I can open my heart again enough to express how grateful I am. Having those conversations that we had made me feel comfortable with you, it's like we had the same vibe. Thank you for making me happy and opening my heart and taking a risk. You showed me a lot of things. Hoping the best for you and I'll see you around.

Making friends

 A month ago I met a stranger, apparently we were chasing the same cause. He was outgoing, lively and initiated the conversation between us and I liked it. He took my phone number after the day and later we started chatting. Alas, I had made a friend. We kept chatting after then about life, jokes,other personal stuff including the original cause of meeting. Unfortunately things didn't go well for him and on realization, he just cut off contact. A friend made and lost within only 2 weeks! I've often encountered similar situations where I meet strangers, we turn into "friends" chatting on a daily basis and in an instant they back off without notice and in a very short time. It leaves me with a question, how exactly do they feel after that?  For the first time after one has met me, one might think I'm the most outgoing person. It also surprises me how I manage to give a cocktail of characteristics. I always seem outgoing and lively but when inside I know I'm a sh...

Hope

  Just shortly after having lost hope, you surfaced in my life.  You brought hope back to an abandoned house, just like a tree planted by the riverside. You rekindled the ray of happiness in my heart.  You made me forget all those that were holding me back My heart rejoiced with ecstasy My lips smiled endlessly Thinking about you was refreshing like taking ice cold water. You made me forget those who intentionally played with my heart, and broke it into pieces. Waiting for the day, when I'll finally look straight into your eyes, and tell you, "I love you." And I'm imagining the happiness in my heart as you reply, that you love me too.

Reading

  It's hard to turn to another page when you know your favourite character is not going to be in the next chapter. That's what makes reading abit troublesome. I selected the book thinking it was a comedy, it was my first book to ever read. Finally I had embraced reading. Everyone told me it was the best thing to do, but my fear wasn't exactly reading. I didn't know which exact book to choose. The rule was simple,one book at a time. What if I choose a tragedy? I was never prepared for the turnover of events midway. What if I fail to finish the book, and then I have to constantly wonder what happened next. And finally I did it. I randomly picked the best book from the shelf. It had a beautiful cover. I felt that it's the one I had always wanted to read first, even from childhood. Off we go, the first chapters were the best, fell in love with one of the characters. It was the best book, day and night reading out loud.  And one beautiful day my worries came true. Wait, ...
