A question I asked myself… why is it that no relationship lasts? I cannot see myself as a duo, I cannot hold someone’s hand for long, I cannot keep near someone and sleep tight…
Am I damaged goods?
No you are not, you were hurt, deceived, and emotionally traumatized!
You forgot to speak for yourself, and probably were in a situation where you couldn’t…
Sometimes the fear is so strong that we cannot face it, or think we cannot. At that moment, we lack confidence under the attack of the abuser thinking they are the sole carer for our future that we fear raising our voice and speaking our mind.
So am I damaged goods? No I am not, no you are not.
We are are simply under the spell of the abuser, waiting for that moment when we gain our strength, confidence, and take charge of our life although with fear but it will take just a moment to knock that firewall we are hiding behind…
We will, We shall, because we are not alone and I know because I was once there, on the other side!”
#MOI the listening ears you need and your voice until we hear you up!

“Loud, men and women…
Boundaries and limitations, we set them to self when we subdue to the walls surrounding us and not live to meet our own standards.
Who are you? I asked a group of ladies.
& here was my answer. I am… the wife, the mother, the daughter, I am somebody’s, but could not hear a personal introduction to self.
Is that religious commitment, is it a cultural connection, is it south meets north and east meets west, is it the ethnic constitution, or is it respect and assumption that this is the right thing fearing to be judged as loud, or fearing to fail in the world assumed for men.
First and foremost, please understand my comprehension of the hierarchy of a family and any institution.
I respect cultural commitments and religious affiliations. I respect ethnic backgrounds and their related traditions, I respect all customs, habits, or any other word you would like to add… I do! but, as well I respect the difference of genders as individualism, and mainly as equality that starts inside the house, at children level by their parents.
The only time respect is gained or granted, is when one person is raised to respect themselves and others around them.
Culture will never change, or at least some will take longer to meet halfway.
Women shall always be baby carriers.
Sperms shall always be the reproductive cells for fertilization.
There is a sun, moon, planets…
Some things are a given, but as well, I believe in the statement putting food on the table, it is expected to be the role of the man within the couple, but at times the woman succeeds to do that role and/or supports; & when it comes to working, or shining in the community where you are, women become loud only if they feel cornered and not able to reach out to others around them, they become loud to make their voice be heard, in order to rise with respect.
We cannot call a loud man a man with authority, and a woman wanting to be noticed loud! SHE IS A WOMAN OF COURAGE, STRENGTH, AND GREAT RESPECT.
Give her room to grow, give her space to flourish, first inside the house, then inside the community, and last in the workplace if applicable.”
#MOI I salute every man that sees women, and I salute every woman that sees herself!
& on this day, I wish Happy Mother’s Day to all those celebrating this special day.
Some stories will simply change you life!

Moment of truth, it is the moment only you know about, and worse, you confine yourself with it. You expect yourself to step out of a past, while you did not even open the last door, the door to a different life, you know it has no way back in, you know it is a one-way door! This door opens only from the inside, it is the door to freedom, to your next life. What makes you not open it? *Judgment? About you loving yourself? *Gossip? Well, eventually you will be a story people refer to while having other stories to gossip about. *Not fitting in? Yes. it is a feeling, odd, not sharing the same interests, happiness grounds are no longer alike. *Social life? It is a mistake when you drawback, I know it is not easy, but get yourself out, you are a butterfly that just cracked the cocoon, fly! *Wrong move? Fearing ending up not with the right person is a dilemma, but who is the right person, does he come with a scale, handbook of actions, and love strategies. Physically not comfortable with yourself? *Lost? What do you expect? after living in a routine for a long while, change does not jump on your lap as a comfort zone. Make an effort to start anywhere, and your instinct will guide you. *Lack of true friends? Unfortunately, but look at the bright side, you have a chance to pick a new bouquet, and at this phase, only those who deserve being here shall fall in your future like puzzle blocks. *Fear? Yes, admit it, face it, and remember, fear is a feeling you create when you surrender; when you stop trusting yourself; and when you stop believing you can make your own life again! Fear will only hold you back if you do not use it as a fuel to run your own ship!
Confront yourself, it is the moment of truth, move on, your life, live it!” #MOI so you know, I was talking to myself, unless you find your story within the lines!

“Some days we pray, some days we fight with God, some days we laugh, some days we cry, some days we are in emotional pain, some days we are in physical pain, some days we dance, some days we exercise, some days we sit, some days we work… But every day we live, & that is the gift!”
MOI Enjoy the gift of life, it comes as a package!
