Dear Woman of My Time

Dear Woman Of My Time
Fall in love with yourself,
Always speak kindly to yourself even when you fall short, NO ONE IS PERFECT.
Never settle and open your heart to the possibility of real love nomatter how many times its broken,
Your ability to love will be stretched in ways you didn’t think possibly exist,
You will forgive more times than you are willing to,
You will want to forget and maybe in some cases you will but when you don’t, cut them off!
Stand 10 toes down in the truth of who you are and what you believe in,
You are complicated, but isn't that more fun!
Never give up or settle to fit into “societal standards”
Your dream, however crazy it is.. is reason enough to keep you going,
Feminism is great, but remember equality is neither equity nor similarity,
Learn to walk in heels if you want to not because someone else wants you to,
Remember to always leave a little sparkle wherever you go,
Put some money away and TRAVEL, see the world from your eyes,
You are superior, powerful, strong, resilient and a conqueror.
Dear woman of my time, don't forget to LIVE!

Damned is the heart

You don’t love me, You love the idea of loving me,  You love the idea of having me in your life You love the idea of “this is who is right for me” Damned is the heart I mean…  I’m amazing! Im a lucky find, You find comfort in me You have peace of mind and all that good stuff you would want from your woman  I’m everything you want  Damned is the heart Because….  I’m not everything you need I don’t give you the butterflies  I don’t fill up your mind with ME I don’t make your heart skip a beat  I just don’t cut it…  Damned is the heart Well… You try to hold on  You try to do right by me You try to be committed to me You try to choose me over and over again  You try to be happy  You TRY AND FAIL because I’m just not the one  Damned is the heart  Random writes by Miss Carol

My 27 Lessons at 27

I turned 27! and I’m back home after 4 years so I got to celebrate with my family. This year I decided to write about the lessons I’ve learnt so far. It took me about 15 minutes to get these together, and I thought I should share. 😌 1. When you ask the universe for something, please do not accept mediocre. 2. Set boundaries, people treat you how you allow them to. 3. How you speak to/about yourself is very important and really matters. 4. Do not wait to be at your lowest to identify the solid pillars(people) in your life.  5. Quality over quantity  6. Be intentional with everything you do  7. Categorising Natural plants as illegal drugs is BS 🤷🏽‍♀️  8. Do not stress over things you can’t change/ control 9. Don’t be a sheep, the world is a social construct, live by your truth 10. Spirituality over religion. 11. Some people may not understand your opinion and that’s okay. There is beauty in diversity.  12. Never judge a book by the cover, be kind and respectful...

STILL I STAND

"I was sexually assaulted!" How do i even say it to my parents and mates? How do i start the conversation? Yes i was drunk.. Will they understand? I only had one glass of vodka diluted with sprite Was i drugged? What did the culprit add in my drink? You were my friend, of course you can stay over We were both drunk anyway.. but you were conscious I trusted you to get me home safe Do you even realize what you did? To be honest, i myself just recently discovered that it was assault (years later) Why did i let it happen? Was it my fault? I carry the hurt, shame and a secret that is soo hard to tell I forgave you and still kept you as a friend Our society is not open to such conversations, so how do i hold a grudge when YOU don't know any better? Dear African girl, i am sorry you have to endure and carry some burdens alone. How soon will this conversations begin? Will the generation of my time atleast educate their children?
