Before writing this post on depression, I was scared. I was afraid because of the heaviness of what I wanted to talk about. Also, I realise that the message I want to pass on in this post may seem surreal and worse, it may feel like gibberish to some. I hope that through this post…
Have you noticed how anger energises? I know there is a whole physiological process behind it, but even our body has a reason for everything it does. The reason is mostly to protect ourselves. I wonder why our bodies energise us when we are angry. I have a theory: the body senses danger and hurt…
When we struggle with unforgiveness, it’s because we have been hurt so badly. This makes it so hard and delicate to talk about. What do I say that will let you know that I care about your pain? How do I show you that forgiveness is not self-abandonment; it is self-healing? Maybe I should tell…
I believe that envy is anger with a reason. I say this because anger is a strong feeling of unfriendliness or hostility. Consider this: when you are angry at someone, you probably don’t want to hug them, at least not immediately. Anger is terrible because it often leads us to hurt people. Hurting someone doesn’t…
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, Anxiety is an uncomfortable feeling of nervousness or worry about something that is happening or might happen in the future. In this blog post, I’ll be talking to myself and you. Whenever I write on this blog, I write what I know and not what I do. This means sometimes…

Since we’ve established in the previous post that doing what makes you happy might not, in fact, make you happy. That your life’s purpose is embedded in God’s will. I also wrote that the will of God will bring you fulfilment because that is exactly what you were made for. I’m not sure you can…
Time feels so fleeting that it feels we are not living it. One day we are celebrating New Year’s and the next is Christmas. Most times, we feel so empty because we can feel time going by when we’ve not done anything with it. We want our lives to mean something; we do not want…
After giving your life to Christ and you’ve felt the peace that comes with it. You’ll want to start living it out, and the question of how to give your life to Jesus becomes imminent and even confusing. It is confusing because it sometimes feels living for Jesus looks like being a pastor or a…
