My people, life ain't easy but it's beautiful when you're true to yourself.
When you walk around without a chip on your shoulders, life's challenges and pressures become a bit lighter.
When your ego is insignificantly low, the only reason would be because you're true to yourself......
When you make no apologies for who you are but at the same time stay meek and humble, you are your true self.
My life's journey so far has brought me face to face with the realisation that my true self helps me deal with the painful boomeranging of some of my expectations when they fall flat.
So if you're looking for yourself and asking everyone except yourself the direction to your real self, well sorry my dear, you miss road. Most people are other people, their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
In being my TRUE SELF, I keep creating new chapters in my life journey, never stop re-inventing and perfecting myself even as I insist on remaining a student for and of life. Along the way I discover that there are many heavens on earth waiting for one to discover. So as difficult as it is most of the time, I keep seeking out people with beautiful souls, hearts and minds; not those with just beautiful style and bodies.
Like all creatures in the wild, we were designed to keep moving.
When a snake sheds its skin, it becomes a more refined creature. I have never ever stopped refining and re-defining myself, most times I am hard on me but have NEVER let who I have finally become go to my head.
My people, we are all beautiful instruments of God.
This wonderful Artiste called God, created many notes in music so we are not stuck playing the same song. This is why I have lived my life musically. Some times I have literally sang off key, but I keep changing the keys, tones, pitch, and volume of each of the songs I create along my journey and play on. Who born dem to stop me!!
Make your own book of life a musical, never abandon obligations, but have fun leaving behind a colorful legacy. Never allow anybody to be the composer of your own destiny. Take control of your life, and never allow limitations (implanted by society) tell you how your music is supposed to sound — or how your book is supposed to be written.
When in the dark, fear not, for light itself doesn’t always bring good!
God has given us one face, now we should not go out and make ourselves another. All we need do is daily beautifying the lovely face we have been given, and that takes process. Let the world know you for who you are not who you think they want you to be.
Can you feel me?
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not. When you treat yourself kindly and respect the uniqueness of those around you, you will be giving this world an amazing gift… YOU!
Na so I see the matter.

I just can't bring myself to read anything written by this man
ReplyDeleteWe must be careful in this era that we are in, while we are busy been free spirited bla bla bla. We must humbly go to God for direction, not reinventing ourselves to suit our selfish desires. Follow God in all sincerity and you won't glorify the desires of your flesh.
ReplyDeleteHonestly I don't understand the angle this man's make up is coming from.what he says is different from him
ReplyDeleteindeed!

ReplyDeleteCharlie's case will end up like Caitlyn Jenner. May God give you clarity.
ReplyDeleteNice write up.
ReplyDeleteOf course Charlie is crazy, a little bit crazy than normal though, I used to despise him and his type, we both hail from oguta local government in IMO state but 5 years ago, I never thought I could view him favorably so, I understand what Sweetheart means when she says "I can't bring my self to read anything written by this man"
ReplyDeleteBut as the years rolled by and I discovered my own touch of madness...... and saw the light in it, I read books by M.Scott Peck and Carl Jung, I concluded that a very necessary part of our genius, of our existentiality is "that touch of madness" yes, life is a bore without it.... it is something that catapults us to that realm which brings out that extraordinary person in us as Carl Jung puts it,
"embrace your madness, accept it, see the light in it and let it shine"
has it ever occurred to you that Charlie mayn't have been as successful if not for the role of his own touch of madness?
Ehen! now you know what I meant...
I can now bring myself to learn from the Charlie I once despised because I now understand certain things I never understood.
I've long subscribed to my own touch of madness, please do subscribe to your own today!
