365 days

 Crazy what a year can do to a person

365 days- each on edge

Stepping a nanometer back each day

Slowly becoming bigger strides- backwards


Now that at a safe distance

Just the thought of the height 

Should've fallen from

Makes you sick


Now from what seems to be a safe distance stands Her

Looking at the past Her

Wishing to let her know that 

Everything's gonna be okay


Yet, unrecognisable in many ways

"Is that even me?"

"Yes"

"Not anymore."


God saw what you didn't

Broke you only to make you

For he has carved you in his palm

He saves you from every harm.

He does not want a Perfectionist.

The time has come to revive the undead... Well, HELLO! There is a high chance that nobody remembers this blog (even I have forgotten, lol). I have been wanting to start blogging again for quite some time now- like the hundred other things I have been  wanting  to do. However, something I came across - which I will share in later blogs - gave me the prompt to put my thoughts into action.  In a time of reflection this morning, I was pondering what went wrong along the way. I used to be able to do things. I used to get work done, but now all I do is cut a sorry figure for myself and self-loathing.

What seemed like a good habit initially became the very thing that started pulling me down. At first, it made me more conscious of what happens if the things that I drive do not reach a good place. Then Procrastination joined the ride, along with Self-doubt, wh...

A day in the greens

Soothing breeze caressing the face Right through the back of the brain Eyes roll back in calmness Lost in a different world amidst the noises Silhouette of a hill over the horizon Green pastures a treat to the eyes Waves of wind over the yellow gems of rice Sparrows flying across the sky Leaves rustling Birds humming Crows cawing Clouds floating in the sun's red sea While hiding behind it  For us not to see.

One step at a time

One is often easily carried away with ambitions that hit them after getting a boost of motivation from an Instagram reel.  In most cases, this kind of energy fades eventually.  That does not mean that aiming high is a bad thing, just that try not to aim too high.  Like aiming for the moon when you are sitting on the couch while scrolling Instagram feeds. You first need to keep your mobile down. Stand up. Take a moment to collect yourself. Walk out the door to spot the moon in the first place. You might not see it if it isn't the right time of the day. If the timing is right, you need to observe all the phases of the moon. Then decide which phase it is that you desire. Then calculate the date on which you will see it again. Make sure you do not have second thoughts and understand that this is what you exactly want. Only after all this, do you find a way to reach the moon.  Before you reach your ultimate goal, there are obviously going to be preparatory steps along the...
