Growing in love.
Here are some things I thought of at 3a.m. regarding relationships. Now that I am single I can see without distractions what has always been important to me. Here are some “lessons” that I have learnt and some focus points going forward.
1.
Biting my tongue is not peace. Me swallowing the words I wanted to get out is not an indication of my maturity. True love should foster a relationship of…

How to: Vision Boards
So it’s a new year and you want to try out new things. Perhaps you’ve always wondered how vision boards work or how you would start if you wanted.
Here’s the 411 on vision boards from little old me to little old you. EnjoyThe first rule is: There really are no rules. You’re basically putting your dreams on a board quite literally, what rules could possibly govern that?1. Be creative.2. Dream…

HERE'S TO THE NEW YEAR
HERE’S TO THE NEW YEAR
Well, well, well look who it is. It is I on the very last day of the year. 2020, am I right? I have so many pieces I have written and just never got around to editing or considered even posting. Anyways, I am back with a post and I hope you enjoy it.
If we’re going to try again in 2021 we might as well have some sort of “blueprint” and I hope this post is exactly that. This is not in any way an…

My ABC's
My ABC’s
(I saw this in a magazine and I was inspired to do it too. I must admit it took me a good while to get everything together but it was worth it almost like getting to know myself.)
Here are the ABC’S OF MY LIFE, ENJOY.
ACCEPTANCE.
Of the self! Of life! Of my now! Of my flaws and the parts of me I don’t fully appreciate. I think that accepting life for what it is right now is crucial if you have any…

"How do you want to be loved?"
“How do you want to be loved?”
Consistently.
That is my response to this very complex yet simple question.
I want consistent love. I want to be loved both by words and by actions. I want a love that never tires. A love that keeps trying and never gets tired of giving it’s all.
I want a secure love, a comfortable love. I want a love I am certain of, an unquestionable, reciprocated, visible, present love. I want a love that sees…

My First Love.
My first love introduced me to myself and took me away from me in the same breath.
As sad as this sounds I did not know myself before this. Well, I was young when this whole thing started so don’t be so hard on me. (I need to hear this from myself too, I was young and I need to stop being so hard on myself.) Loving this human made me realise who I was and what I was capable of. I found out while…

Insecure
I wish you could stop. Stop doubting! Belittling yourself. Stop faking it. Stop pretending. Stop it!
Every time you walk into a room you wonder what everyone else is thinking. What are they saying? Those two girls laughing in the corner, what about me are they finding funny? Digging up old pictures of yourself from that one time you felt somewhat pretty to post online so you can be validated by…

Home to heal.
The first few months of this year were probably the most demanding months ever for me. I cannot help but laugh when I think about how much I have cried. Definitely more than I have in the last year.
Now, when people talk about silver lining I speak from a place of experience. It really is the darkest before it is dawn. I have had a different revelation about being back home.
For me home is for…

Choose Happy.
Last night, for the first time in a while, I had a good night’s sleep.
No crippling anxiety and fear, considering the state of the nation as it relates to the safety of women in South Africa.
Today I woke up and I was thankful that I got a good night’s rest, a blessing we often under appreciate.
I plan on keeping this joy. I want to regain it.
I want to be positive. I am choosing to be positive…

My Sister's Keeper
My Sister’s Keeper
Trigger warning: This post discusses the current plight of gender based violence in South Africa. For your sanity and peace please do not read this if you may be triggered. Love and Light.)
My heart is heavy even as I write this.
News of Uyinene’s death is absolutely shattering. One doesn’t even need to know her personally to feel pain.
I think the disappearance of women in general stirs a lot of…

Time to bloom.
Hey Friends I am back from hibernation.
Spring has sprung and I am here feeling brand new and ready to take on the world. I am just here to remind you to make room for the things that you prayed for. I am confident that what we are praying for is going to happen and I just thought I should remind someone today:
Keep the faith.
Continue giving it your best.
Remember that all your efforts will be…

22 Years Young.
So today I thought I would switch things up and do a challenge. I saw this challenge from one of my favourite Youtubers Desi Perkins. The challenge is called “Then vs Now”. Basically I will compare my present self to me in the past, no specific age just the first memory that comes to mind. Let’s go!
1. Self-image then vs Self-image now
Oh man just thinking about the girl I used to be makes me sad.…

The leap.
Am I the only one who has heard the story of the person who quits their “crappy” job without a backup plan and somehow by some beautiful magic they end up finding the job of their dreams? I have seen it in movies and have even read about it in books, they let go of the one thing, with no plan and boom everything works out.
“Good for them” I would always think but never in a million years did I…

What happened to you?
What happened to you?
Today I find myself confronted by the demon of unworthiness. I hate this feeling. I hate that I doubt and judge myself so harshly. I stop believing in my potential, in my drive and my tenacity. I hate when this happens. It is not that I am scared of the jump, it is that I think the jump was made for certain people. I look outside of myself and convince myself that there are far better and worthy…

A love letter.
I wrote this in my notes for my eyes only. I realised that I’m probably not the only one who needs to see this. So here you go from my heart to yours.
1. Treat yourself well. Honestly, love you and treat yourself like you love you.
2. Don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s really not that bad, calm down and try again. Also you’re doing your best.
3. Don’t talk down to yourself.You’re listening and…
