Celebrate Your Wins, Break Lose From Bondage!
So because you're 24, and you just got into the University, you've refused to post your matriculation pictures because others at your age are either posting their wedding pictures or their new cars. Lee what? LMAO!
I sincerely do not know, but whosoever set the time lag for when "things should be done" can come back and take their change. We're not buying again.
Growing up, my sisters and I calculated the ages we should be done with our University education, and by our calculations,
I shouldn't have anything to do with the University once I'm 19years. I should have been done!
I remember that day clearly, we were so excited. Lol. It didn't later turn out that way, as I finished a little later, but before that time, I put myself in "hell" who sent me please?
I didn't get admission to school when I was supposed to, as a result, I spent all my life in hiding. I hid from my High school mates, teachers, my social media wall was empty, cos I didn't want people to know I hadn't gotten into school.
Guess my age then? 15/16!
Isn't it a thing of pain and concern that a child of 16years already knows the "societal standards" for which things were to be done?
I'm really concerned when I hear about teenagers getting depressed, and suicidal, but see, we can trace it. We can trace it to these things.
You want to know the truth? If you do not celebrate your wins now, you'll never celebrate them again, cos the time it would have mattered would have long passed.
Can we break these bonds? Can we?
Imagine a lady saying because she's 33, she wouldn't have a loud wedding,
as per all her mates are married and celebrating years already. Lol.
Aunty, why not just have the wedding in a hidden cave. You, him, and the host of heaven, since God is everywhere. When you're done, live there happily ever after, because if you come out,
your news will still spread 😂😂
It'll come with headlines. "SHOCKING: Young couple Wed in a cave")
Lol. I wanna cry.
I mean, who's driving this bus? How did we get here? Driver stop!!! Lemme jump out! I'm not going again. No dear, you can keep the change!
You don't celebrate when you're supposed to? You'll realise you'll never celebrate cos the "time" will just never come.
You might not have seen it this way, but stop letting the devil steal your praise.
Doing what you should do, but not being able to do it because (*insert reason*)... Is bondage!
Break free. Again I say, break free!
You just boarded a plane for the first time in your entire life? Celebrate it.
You just graduated from the University at 29? Celebrate it!
You hit your first 400 followers on your page? Celebrate it.
You were able to buy a worthy gift for your dad for the first time? Celebrate it.
Your account balance just hit 6figures for the very first time? Celebrate it.
However you want, just make sure you mark it remarkably.
If you wait till its "BIG," there are chances that even when 'BIG' comes, you might never see it.
Watch out for some tiny human voices that are gifted with the spirit of heaviness and discouragement.
They'll start by saying 'others are celebrating... You're here...' stop them immediately. Never let anyone compare you or BELITTLE YOUR SUCCESS.
Start celebrating everything, you'll see less reasons to complain.
Yes they are milestones. Feel free to carry them on your head!
Sit, and reflect on things you're grateful for. You can choose to take it to your social media accounts, or drop them in the comments.
Let's pop some wine. You 'desaf' it mai dear!
We are Zion. Our house cannot lack shouts of joy!
