Let's be more VULNERABLE


Hello my beautiful fans!. Yes, if you are reading this... You are a fan and I love that you are!!! 😁😉 It has been a minute! I missed doing this with you, you know?😌...that wasn't a question, by the way.😉
How have you been since my last post? I truly hope with the whole situation happening , you are doing well. I hope your smile still brightens the room. I hope your inner light still shines so bright for the world to see. Continue to exude that grace you carry. You are doing well.🤗

Let's dive straight to the topic of discussion. 

I was strolling  on the streets of Twitter recently and I saw this (please forgive the picture quality).👇 


My first reaction was "Uhmm... what's with the over-calculation?".  I mean, why do we have to play this card just to get the attention of the 'other person'?. To what end and is it even necessary?. 

It just means that whenever a party feels the need to "increase the spark", a DELIBERATE faux gap is created just so the other person can rate them more😒. Very selfish, toxic,  unhealthy and unnecessary, right?... I didn't think otherwise either. 

These days, it is obvious people fear not to do too much just so they don't get to be seen as being 'too mushy', 'too clingy' or be taken advantage of.

I have heard people say "too much familiarity breeds disrespect", but the truth in my opinion is, in a relationship where both parties are reasonable and are happy to respect each other, there's nothing as "overfamiliarity". 

"Overfamiliarity" in this context, might just be your ego taking over your emotions. It could be those insecurities you see when you look in the mirror. So, instead of addressing the issues with "the man in the mirror", you fear and you run from the truth... YOUR TRUTH. Now, you ponder on the best way to win this battle with yourself. To you, you believe the sure way to save you from your own reality is to project your truth on the other person. Tragic, right?. Fix it. Fix you.

Darlings, it's 2020!. Life is beautiful and its beauty should be experienced so why not take the bull by the horn... be happy to own and address your truth, show love and kindness as much as you can, be intentional with your relationships, be happy to love without restraint, allow yourself to love and experience love, allow yourself to be vulnerable, avoid mind-games; communicate more. 

If you do all these and the other person doesn't appreciate it, be happy to go where you are appreciated. Be happy to know that sometimes, it is necessary to let things go and let people be... not because you have stopped loving them but you understand that holding on depreciates the love you have for yourself. So wish them well and embrace peace. You deserve peace and genuine happiness. 

To be fair, I acknowledge this is easier said than done but in the end, be assured that you will be doing yourself a whole good. You will be more in tune with yourself whilst realising that the love you showed and haven't stopped showing has magically find its way back to you... permanently in your arms and forever within your reach. Now, for every unit of love you show to this person, it is reciprocated in quantum leap. A win-win. 😁

So, keep loving with reckless abandon.  Be intentional about it and be happy. Stop with the over-calculation... life isn't that hard.

Until next time, I'm sending love, light and everything nice your way. Please continue to stay safe.

Thank you so much for reading! God bless you!. I love you!.🤗😘❤

The transformation to a Beast!

Photo   credit :  Google   images My name is Damilare and Uncle Seun turned the beautiful soul in me to a beast... Who will save me now?. He (Uncle Seun) wasn’t exactly my “Uncle”. He was an orphan who Daddy employed to work for the family and I grew to call him “Uncle”. I mean, he thought me all I needed to know as a child from helping with school assignments, football, play station, prepping me for school and the likes. I believe he did that job well. Whatever he did for me and to me was very much commendable. He did it perfectly well. The five-year old me idolized him as my mentor. He was everything to me. Well, my parents were never available. They were all up for travels and business meetings. I remember, I used to miss them initially but as time went by, the love I had for my parents was quickly replaced with the love I found in the comfort and happiness Uncle Seun provides. He was my happy place. My sixth year birthday was coming up soon...

A letter to my Older self.

Dear Catherine, You have no idea how excited I am writing you this and it's not because it's Christmas today. I have been wanting to do this for the longest and today just seemed right!. Also, I have seen posts from a few people writing to their older selves and I figured you deserve one too. You think so, right?. Indeed.😊 So, how are you?... uhmm, first, hollup ! I will need you to take a deep breath before answering. I'm curious to know how my older self is faring. Tell me...don't hold back...let it out and be honest. How are you?.

The KEEPER'S words...

Have you ever been in a situation where it feels like there is a battle between your mind and the voices in your head?. It's like a supremacy battle. However, you want to be careful to follow the right voice, lest, you may stumble. You know that moment when you really want some 'quiet' inorder to take that next step... you can hear the voices in your head screaming in support of what it is beckoning you to do but the mind says otherwise and you wonder why can't these two agree! Why do they have a mind of their own?.  You say to yourself " I am in charge " to the point that you now totally believe you truly are but are you truly in charge?. You actually look helpless😏 In a way to caress your ego into believing you are indeed in control, you run straight to your arsenal (forgetting to say hello to the one who is in charge of that arsenal). You pick up all the necessary weapon you figure you might need for your show of power. The funny thing is, now you have the...
