Lean on Me...

I was listening to the...'lean on me' while chatting and scrolling through pictures on my phone when this picture caught my attention.
The picture had been there however, for more than a year and I hardly looked at it twice because, It didn't make much sense to me neither did it scream the painter's mind nor what I see right now until this moment.

So what do you see?
I think I see two little children leaning on the other person while they both leaned on their mother and the mother in turn leaned on the father and what have the father? A chair? Holding tight almost breaking but for the chain of seemingly support even though each person has his or her personal fear and worry and interest too!
That's just the physical.
All I am trying to say is, no matter how strong you are or how independent you seem to be, we all need someone to lean on.
Now, are you hurting? Pained? Betrayed? At the point of breaking and giving up? Tired of trying and scared of failure? Whatever the case or situation, you need, I need and We all need to someone to lean on and most importantly God.
He sees it all, never fails and always on time!
Do you think you can give it one more shot? Take a deep breathe. Trust in HIM. Build healthy relationships. Try again and lean on HIM.
Also, do not forget that you have humans around you for a purpose and the reason we call some people FRIENDS is because we can actually lean on them at all times or most times.

For My G.Ma - Felicia

I never knew I would miss her this much. People never understood why I love Christmas. I didn’t quite get it too – apart   from the bursting joy of the birth of Christ, the melodious songs and beautiful decorations; there was more to the super hyper and lovey-dovey feeling I always have this season. So, I was scrolling through my phone gallery and saw the last photo I had with my G.Ma. Oh by the way, Christmas was her birth and death day. I’m writing this because of her. Just to share a bit of her awesomeness with you. That woman was a bad-ass! Reminiscing on my childhood memories with her, I realized she was the reason I love Christmas. I usually spent my Christmas and New-Year holidays with her as a child. She would take me to her church and ask the priest to allow me join other children in the Christmas carol rehearsals and performances. She would take me to the salon and have my hair done and accessorized. I hated making my hair, it was just too stressf...

Life

It seems like the only thing we leave behind besides legacy are the memories we create and imprint in the hearts of the people we love, have met, or cared for. Legacy, in my opinion, is formed out of memories – where we’ve been, the things that we did, our goals and accomplishments, even failures. The older I get, the more I think I’m beginning to understand the true essence of life. I hope I do. One moment, the people we love, know, or care about are here and the next they are gone. Tell me again, why we clench our fists as a new-born and let it all out when we leave? Or why we make loud noises in the announcement of our arrival and walk away in silence, sometimes without notice. Is life that meaningless, as the words of the king in Jerusalem, son of David? I never entirely fully agreed with some of his words in Ecclesiastes, the idea of it is very understandable though, actually very deep for one who has seen it all, I suppose.   ‘One generation goes its way, the next one...

Story

In this journey called life, where moments and seasons appear like stories that would become history and re-cycled in the future.  This story in which all must play a part, big or small, voluntarily or forcefully; somehow you are in the loop - it is the circle of life.  This story of life, some of us would write it; some would tell it; some would invent it; some would create it; some would act it; some would direct its sequence; some would learn and build from it; some would fight for it; some would die for it; some others would passively watch it.  In the end, you alone will choose what narrative you want your scene in the story of life to look like. Remember you are in the story, no one said you couldn’t be the story! In this journey called life, where moments and seasons appear like stories that would become history and re-cycled in the future. This story in which all must play a part, big or small, voluntarily or forcefully; somehow you are in the loop - it is the...
