A LETTER TO MY PRINCE TO BE

It has been a while since I sat down to write something out to you. I have been caught up in so many things that I actually forget to take some time and think about you
I apologize, though I know you understand fully, that all this in due time, shall bear good fruit, not just for me but those around me; including you.
But I am here now, and I just thought I should jot down something to you, even as I wait for the day of your arrival. Oh how I can’t wait, for time to tell that the moment for us to come together has arrived. It seems like forever, but I’d rather wait, coz I know the longer it takes for me to get to you, the better the future will be for us.
It is still hard to imagine that you are out there somewhere looking for me; down on your knees chanting a prayer every night that your eyes will one day be opened to see me.  
I wish I knew who you are, so that I know how to prepare myself for you. I wish I knew where you are then I would at least come to meet you. I wish I knew how you looked like, and then maybe my imagination wouldn’t travel so far.
But none of that is a barrier at all; in fact it gives room for me to put myself in order in the best of ways, because I believe you deserve the best of me.
Life without you in person is quite scary. Coz then my assurance, is not at the highest of levels. I find my self asking, who you could be, and if ever at all, you will be right in choosing me.
I find myself doing self analysis, of who I would want to be to and for you. Then I wonder; is that really what you want from me? Only time will tell.
However let me make it clear to the whole world that I am waiting for you. Keeping myself busy in the Vineyard of God the father, has a way of making one patient enough for the right man, and that is just a clue of where you expect to find me.
I can’t say the waiting is easy. I mean there times when it’s just me, and I wish badly that you were around to make it ‘you and me’.
Sometimes I wish that you were around to hold me in your arms, and stay for a while, and softly whisper everything a girl like me would love to hear.
I wish you could call and say, ‘I am on my way’, just to assure me that you are drawing near.
It gets crazy at times, but hey, perseverance is all I got to do, if I want to be blessed enough to have a great man like you.
Besides, if I was to experience all this now, what would I have to enjoy in the coming days?
With every passing day, the distance between us grows shorter
The patience within me grows stronger
Every time I think this waiting time is bring me something better, I smile
Because I know when you arrive and stand right before me
I will be proud of myself, having kept myself for you…
It will be worth the wait.
I look forward to having you in my life. I look forward to serving you as your wife.
In the mean time I shall be on my knees, praying as I wait for you
For prayer is the only road that will take me on a path that leads to none other but you.

With all my love,
Your Queen (soon to be)

FLOW OR FLOAT?

A lesson I am learning, the older I grow, is that with discovery comes revelation, and revelation does not always soothe. I believe in the slow burn of human connection, not the fleeting flicker of a sprint. I take my time, extending the same patience and grace to others that I give myself in my own process of self-discovery. Sometimes, curiosity bubbles up, a genuine thirst to understand. Other times, my emotional and mental reserves are low, and I'm simply present, observing. But…intrigue me. Nudge the edges of my world with a spark of genuine interest, and you might just pique my curiosity. A "Hmmmm…who is this person?" moment might dawn, and the spotlight of my attention will shift your way. As we forge new connections in life, we are met with a mirror—not always a flattering one—that shows us how much we have changed, and perhaps, how much we still wish to. In that reflection, we see the vastness of who we are and the contradictions we carry. Self-awareness has unlo...

The "WHAT ABOUT ME" ERA

Happy New Year—or maybe a better greeting is, You made it! It’s been an eternity since I last did this, weaving thoughts into sentences. Back then, it was pen and paper; today, it’s keys and screens. The act of writing itself feels like a resurrection. My writing process for the hiatus period has been a messy one of delay, distraction, overthinking, and an impressive dedication to avoidance. Not encouraging terms for the beginning of the year ey? True, but the awareness of it is the start in the right direction if you ask me. 2024 had been a year of relentless demands, stretching me thin in every direction. I constantly felt like I was chasing an elusive "enough," a feeling that left me perpetually unsettled and plagued by the insidious whispers of inadequacy. "I don't know," became my frequent refrain, a mantra of self-doubt that clung to me like a shadow. Yet, as I sat down to evaluate the year, a profound realisation dawned: I had pushed myself beyond my per...

FROM THE COMFORT ZONE TO WHERE LIFE REALLY HAPPENS (OUTSIDE IT)

Image courtesy of www.loc.gov A question was asked to me a couple of weeks ago, phrased in this way…   “What things do you see in your personal life where you might be resisting change?” (Think about this for some time before proceeding to read and hold on to your answer) Frustration tends to build up when things do not go as expected. Change is something each of us responds to differently. There are those who see it as an adventure. Their adrenaline shoots up at the thought of experiencing something or somewhere new. Others like myself take time to embrace it, calculating every single step as we move along. We like to know the details of where we are, what we ought to do, and better still what the future will hold. We dwell mostly in the questioning quarters than boarding the bus headed to “new”.  The word “new” scares us. We’d rather be comfortable with what we know, than be put in a place that expects us to figure things out on our own; and if it takes us ...
