July 2021- I lost the job || The Breaking

A flat-twist I was popularly known for last year. 👇
     Picture taken on the 4th of July after I had just 
                            finished crying.

I placed this picture as my whatsapp display picture for quite sometime but a lot of people did not know the story behind it. On that day, that Sunday, I had just gotten back from church and I was tired, I walked to an isolated area where the only noise around was that of men working and I did not care that I was being reckless, I had to get some relief by crying.

This month was my birth month and my birth anniversary was nothing to write home about... it was on a saturday, I went for basketball practice(this was my last, I could not afford it), and after returning... I stayed indoors and cried almost all through the day. It was quite eventful; That's not to say I didn't have friends and family who didn't celebrate me, I did... I just was in a mood, disappointed about certain plans I had made prior to this day not coming to be and worried about many things.

I took on a lot of responsibilities this month as well though: 
- I started an internship program which I later stopped attending.
- I started taking my Italian classes seriously again.
- I started Mindset Mastery, a group that majors on relationship development in all areas and that I had been putting off since December 2019... I had started before but I wasn't really committed to it. 
- I took a step competing to be able to take a certified security computer user exam and earned a certificate.
- I took on the job offer to write a copy for my friend's client.
- I paid a part of my International school of mentorship fees.

July was all God.
At some point, God and I took a break this month... I could still feel Him trying to reach me but I was just not having it until at last, someone reminded me of the fact that God has feelings while taking teachings on a whatsapp group chat.. Well, that closed the deal... I got back with Him.

Jesus asked me what prayer was all about and the Holy Spirit was the one to tell me what to do, during one of those days like I mentioned in my previous post, the Holy Spirit began asking me what prayer was and I said it was communication with God, He then asked me what communication is, I said: It is talking to someone and getting a response.
Holy Spirit: Okay, when you talk to me, do I talk back to you.
Me: Yes, I do but...
Holy Spirit: Huwa, prayer is communication with God, talk to me. Just talk.
I did just that.

I also let go of control a whole lot more.
We had two dinners this month in my school which I attended mostly due to the food, I hadn't eaten some days prior... Technically, it was a dinner and variety night but food was given on that night so, of well. ✌ 

How did the job go? Not so well, eventually my client and I had to part ways because it was apparent I was not prepared.

April 2021 - All Hail Omokhuwa: the Hair stylist || The Breaking

I matriculated this month and because I could not afford to make my hair, styled my hair myself in the morning before leaving, my mum really wanted to come for my matriculation but somehow fell sick so my elder ones came instead.  Matriculation connotes something of joy to people but I wasn't really happy, I felt shame and at the same time, I did not post anything because I wanted to keep my life private however, I posted a picture due to my hair, I wanted people to see the beauty but unfortunately, I had not taken any picture without the cap and gown for my hair. The picture I posted👇 This is a spillover for you. 🥰 Despite all this, this was a very depressing month for me, I was going through a lot of things and not talking to anyone about it, it messed up with me a lot, and at times, messed up with my relationship with people. I was reading something into what was not. I had days where I would cry endlessly and it always transited into other ...

February 2021: I have to leave Landmark University! || The Breaking

I had mixed feelings about being in LMU, people would see me as my brother's sister, those who were keen on the information and I would just be Elisha's sister, in a sense to them. A good name makes way, yes but we went to the same secondary school as well.  I had some assignments God had given to me before now as well which was to be online, I had also started a #learndailychallenge on twitter and without a gadget, it seemed I would not be able to do them till much later, I did not mind not having a phone, I just did not know how things will work out.                                         *** Although it was a time of bliss for the two weeks I stayed, I was in pain at certain periods of time in that first week and when I felt overwhelmed, I either laid on my bed and cried or went to the bathroom. I was tired, this was the second university I would be in. The next week, I went to t...

A New Year Push

Happy New Year! 🎊 It's a new year and I am quite sure some of us have written our new year resolutions forgetting the one we wrote last year, 2021, that we could not accomplish. For some people, t hey are still working on their new year plans while some others have decided that New year resolutions are nothing and so they will not plan. A new year means different things to people. For me, a new year means starting a blog.. a new phase of taking my writing to an even larger audience, Jesus advised me to by the Holy Spirit. So, if anything, we have him to thank for this.  I am Omokhuwa, Omokhuwa is an Edo name and it means Child is wealth. I am basically telling you that I am wealth seeing as I am a Child. I am a writer, a student, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a teacher, an influencer and Jesus's Bride amongst other things. Once again, It is  a new year and this new year will come with prophecies as with previous years, prophecies that if not built on, will remain only in a ...
