Dear Young Women

-

Today, I want to talk about woman on woman hate.

Today, I want to talk about those women who hate on you just for being you. And I mean, if you’re a woman who knows what she wants, then having a few people ‘hate on you’ is normal I guess.

However, in this day and age, there are woman who sit on their arses all day long and still hate on you for going out there and achieving your goals. You still find bitter women who have nothing to their name, but feel they have a right to tell you shit about what you have. You still find women who think finding a rich man and getting him to look after you is the be all and end all, and frown upon you for working hard every day to make your own money.

I live by my personal mantra, ‘Temporary sacrifice. Life-long gain.’ My year has especially been one of sacrifices lately. Sacrificed my permanent employment and monthly salary to go back to school and do my Masters degree. I sacrificed living in my home and my personal space, and chose to rent it out instead and move back to my family home. Because all these temporary sacrifices will produce lifelong gain. All these sacrifices will result in me achieving my goal of becoming a Psychologist and doing what I was destined to do. Yet, through all this, you find women who have nothing, except a chip on their shoulder, talking nonsense about you because you are doing something with your life. Through all the sacrifices that will eventually pay off, you find women who sit on their laurels and try to prevent you from accomplishing your goals, because laziness has consumed them.

I always find it so funny when I hear ‘La-Toya, that girl does not like you.’ Sometimes, it bothers me, most times; it goes in the one ear and out the other. You see, girls do not bother me much. Their cognitive abilities have not progressed yet. They lack insight. They lack depth. They lack truth. Girls do not bother me; they still need to grow up. Young women are the ones who bother me. Young women are supposed to stand together. Young women are supposed to build each other up, not break one another down. But alas, it is easier to say an unkind word about someone you barely know, than to appreciate the efforts of a young woman who knows what she wants in life.

Dear young women, be brave enough to know what you want in life and fight for it, instead of breaking one another down.

Dear young women, go out there and claim what belongs to you.

Dear young women, be bold and true to your cause, but support those of others too.

Dear young women, stop hating and bitching and moaning, it brings you nowhere. It brings you nothing. It only makes that chip on your shoulder even bigger than it already is.

Dear young women, make your own money.

Dear young women, drive your own cars.

Dear young women, exude beauty, because that which you give to the world, is that which comes back to you.

Dear young women, stop hating and bitching, you are better than that.

 
Take Care

What Susie says about Sally...

‘What Susie says about Sally, says a lot more about Susie than it says about Sally.’ I came across this and thought it would be a sin not to post this. I know I have written about this before but I thought I should say something about it again. How quick are we to judge others? It really takes nothing nowadays for someone to say something bad about someone else. It has become almost second nature to open our mouths and to spread a story about someone else. In most cases, it does not even concern us at all. We spend way too much time concerned with the lives of others when we should be focused on making our own lives better. And it is true, what you say about someone else really does say more about you than it does about them. If you make it a habit of spreading stories, lies, rumours, whatever it may be, soon, you will have a reputation. And no one will believe you when you bad mouth others, because they already know that you have a reputation of doing so. The bottom line is t...

The clouds will fade...

I love rainy days. Days like today. I love them. The air seems so much cleaner. I inhale it and I feel alive. I feel alive. Rain has a cleansing effect. It falls down to the Earth and wipes all the dirt away. It penetrates the ground and works its way through every soil granule and blade of grass it can find. It leaves its mark on everything it touches. It cleanses. And then, it makes way for growth. That is what rain does. It touches the Earth and makes flowers grow, it makes grass green, and it nourishes and feeds so that growth can take place. And after the rain has stopped, the dark clouds that once threatened are gone, and it leaves us with a beautiful rainbow and the sun that eventually makes its way through the clouds. After the rain, growth takes place and the sun does eventually shine again. And in our lives, it works basically the same way. The dark clouds arise in the form of our problem and obstacles, chasing the sun away. They chase our joy away. They hover in our s...

They Chose My Womb

-
I often wondered if it would ever happen for me… I often wondered if having life growing inside    me would be something I would experience too.  You know how those thoughts of doom and gloom enter your mind and try to convince you that it is merely something you will witness and never have the pleasure of experiencing first hand. And as the years rolled by, those thoughts grew and gained strength.  I had often obsessed over it. Pretended not to be bothered, but secretly obsessing over it. Until it consumed me.  When I lost my Father and my best friend, the obsession grew. Almost as though I were trying to replace these two lives I lost with another. But continuously, I was disappointed. And so the thoughts grew. The thoughts became stronger and more prominent.  I didn’t know how to wait on God’s timing anymore, and frankly, I didn’t know if I wanted to. I became selfish and trusted Him less, although I still prayed for some kind of miracle. Which sounds we...
