Surviving the growth process.


Everything starts from seed and for the fruit to be enjoyed there is a process that must be initiated and most times the transition is a painful period.

A woman cries because of the labour pains and until the birth of her child and once she has delivered the pain and the process is no longer an issue and soon forgotten.

If anyone has ever witnessed a butterfly coming out of its cocoon, it a moment where one gets tempted to try and help it come out, but nature is amazing, there has to be a process and most of the time going through such painful significances brings out the beauty of what we know as life.

Out of such painful experiences and if we stay strong enough to withstand, we receive much joyful and enjoyable fruit that comes with the whole painful process and that is inexplicable.

Challenges in our lives come to strengthen us – I never understood that until having to face and go through the rough, and understand that the desire for the fruit is much greater than the temporary painful process felt in trying to reach that greater result.

I have reached a point of understanding that struggles must be accepted and coped within only the ways that best suit us as individuals, understanding that there is no formula for the right or wrong and if we know and desire the end result that we must stay strong through all the challenges that will be faced in order to archive the desired result.

Even though these trying times we must stay strong and understand that it only gets better.

It is what it is, we are here to stay.

   In the year 2024, I find myself reflecting on the enduring misconception held by many people who identify as heterosexual that homosexuality is nothing more than a sexual desire. It pains me to see how some have convinced themselves that those who are homosexual are incapable of anything beyond their orientation. Despite knowing that homosexuality has existed long before the time of Jesus, there are still those who view it as a mere choice that can be switched on or off at will. It is important to remember that homosexuality is not a new phenomenon nor is it something that can be eradicated or changed at will.  Throughout my own journey, I have witnessed the struggles faced by individuals who identify as homosexual, including the need to hide their true self and endure the hatred and discrimination of society. It breaks my heart to think of the centuries of denial and secrecy that have been forced upon those who simply wanted to be true to themselves.  Homosexuality did not start wi

A Journey of Continuous Learning in an ever Changing World.

I am reminded of my primary school days, after the school holiday breaks we would be required to write up compositions about what we did during the school break. Those who were fortunate enough to have been travelled out of the city or even the country, wrote fantastic stories while others, even though they wrote fictional stories still managed to use their imagination and write good stories.  I always struggled to complete one paragraph, I found it difficult to transform my thoughts onto paper, as hard as I tried it was clear writing stories was not one of my strengths. Over the course of my school days, I had a dream of becoming an author. Verbally I could tell good stories and I had a wild imagination, but the challenge of getting these words from my head on to paper seemed difficult.  I enjoyed the school library and spent a lot of time exchanging books to read, I loved that feeling of being immersed into other worlds as different authors told their stories with such amazing brilli

In The Silence of Night.

  In the stillness of midnight's embrace, Under moonlit skies, miles apart. Missing you, my love, beyond measure, Longing for us to be together. Each moment lingers, time stands still, yearning, Hoping for love so true. In the quiet of night, I silently plea, Hoping you feel the same for me.
