We should start acknowledging the wounds our mothers left us.
The inability to trust anyone. The lack of confidence in all your projects. The hyper-critical voice in your head. The lack of healthy self-esteem.
Being without nurture or care, and then looking for it in the wrong places. Or caring for everybody else but yourself.
Mother wound issues is one of the focal reasons why intimacy may make you feel uncomfortable. Or even why you butt heads with other women frequently. It’s a pattern.
Most girls first hater was actually their own mother.
Though some of us may still have close attachments with our mothers, it’s okay to acknowledge the hidden resentment you have about not being cared for in the way you’d like by your mother. It’s okay to grieve the childhood you never had.

If you ask me, everyone who stole from my people should have a heavy tax added to the return of the artwork. And to pay for the first few years of return housing and maintenance of these items.
What’s so important about this? Let me educate you on an empire lost in Bronze.
Since Esu is gaining more popularity on the socials, let’s talk about how due to religious imperialism in Nigeria, they decided to link Esu to Satan. Esu is not Satan.
Linking traditional divinities to Christian demons is spiritual warfare and religious genocide.
Esu is not a devil, a demon or anything related to Christianic frameworks.
This all happened because of the translation done by Samuel Ajayi Crowther, a Nigerian linguist and the first bishop. In his Yoruba to English dictionary. He translated Satan to Esu.
With the rise of Islam & Christianity, this has led for Esu to be translated as Satan in Yoruba Bibles continuously.
Esu acts at the will of the Creator. He is not Satan. And the slander against one of most important divinities in the Orisha traditional religion is a shame.
I love listening to stories of people who tried shrooms, because they really found the meaning of life on their trip.
I had one very profound trip last year that changed the way I viewed life forever.
When I tripped, I had my window wide open because it made me feel closer to nature. But for some reason, I felt anxious having it that open and went to close it.
When you trip on shrooms, you end up thinking. A lot.
It was like someone told me, “What are you afraid of?”
Which I replied, “I’m scared of a bird flying through my window.”
My thoughts said, “Why would a bird who has total freedom outside, come into your room of captivity?”
