WHAT IS IT?... THE DISCOVERY


It’s not a common kind of adoration
It’s unseen yet felt
It’s hidden yet you still see it
It’s promising
It may be intangible
But your belief in it brings you undying hope.

It blooms from the ordinary surface
Right through you innermost being
It’s one of a kind… it’s unique.

It’s genuine, it’s true
It’s priceless, it’s pure
It’s overwhelming, it’s accepting
It desires to know the good
Then accepts the past
By presenting the fact…
That you’re beautiful, and nothing,
Absolutely nothing can ever change that.

It seeks God
It spells the G.O.D. in another
And doesn’t discourse the ‘d.o.g.’ in them (MEN ARE NOT DOGS!)

It’s comforting to the troubled soul
Eases every bit of your mind
It treats as Royalty
Portrays servant leadership- full of loyalty.

The lady waits to be found
She doesn’t display her heart’s contents carelessly, all year round
The man pursues whilst waiting to conquer
He gives the ultimate respect due… that’s proof of what it is...

What is it?

It’s creative
It’s abundant in nature
It believes
It waits, it endures.

Ultimately,
It guards. It protects.
It discerns,
And once it approves in heaven and on earth
Then nothing can stand in its way
The way of outlining a pathway into the beauty of a newly formed life…

This very thing is simply….
LOVE!

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...

WWJD (WHAT WOULD JANUARY DO?)

It’s day 77 of January and 2025 already feels like 2024’s remix—same beat, just louder and more chaotic. First order of business back in the office? Highlighting all the year’s public holidays on my calendar. Because let's be real, surviving until the next public holiday is a current life goal. Walking into the office with forced 'bubbly bubbly' energy is exhausting. As I said in the previous blog , I don’t know about 2025. It’s already demanding more from me than I signed up for. Sure, some of it makes sense—growth and becoming the person I aspire to be and all that jazz—but other things? Let's just say 'softness is a strength' is my new mantra. There are already emails to respond to and items I was apparently supposed to "circle back to" in 2025 are staring at me like, “We’ve been waiting.” Meanwhile, my last nerve is still mourning the holidays, and my brain refuses to cooperate—it’s on strike, refusing to QWERTY. And let’s not forget, if you’re a ...
