Letters To Self

Dear Self…This I Promise You!

Dear Self…This I Promise You!

Dear Self, You did not choose this life, it chose you! The love you are looking for from people maybe hard to get but love for oneself can be easily found.   Living without a biological father is really hard at times but that experience cautions you on who to choose as a husband because you will find all the missing fatherly love in the right husband!   Silence is a disaster and I urge you to always speak out whenever something is wrong!! Everything will not always be as you wish it to be but I promise you that…

Dear Self…Everything will fall into place.

Dear Self…Everything will fall into place.

  Dear Self, You probably do not realize it but you are a pretty smart and capable person. You should grow up knowing that you should take some more risks in life. Those risks will probably pay off better than you think. Cultivate the confidence you need to go out and so something on your own. Instead of being a follower, learn to lead and everything else will fall in place. Love, the older you. Dear You, And You. And You…

Dear Self,this is me a few years finally talking to…You!

Dear Self,this is me a few years finally talking to…You!

Dear Younger Me…. This is me after a few years talking to you, having recaps and flash backs of you in a minute or even less. Having tiny scenes of the moments we have shared be it happy, sad, entertaining, savage, harsh and all. But at some point I really wish we lived this past life with an older us to tell us what to do and watch out for us. Since we didn’t any way, this is me telling you how we would have rolled. Dear self … Be very honest however much it hurts… You have tried being…

Dear Self…Some day you are going to shine!!!

Dear Self…Some day you are going to shine!!!

To my young self; You are diamond in the rough. Hang in there, the mud won't take your precious prestige value away. The time to be mined will come. Never forget that the longer you’re in the ground, the more you grow valuable. When given the chance, shine so bright, glimmer all the way that the highest bidder takes pride in your glamour. The hardest lesson you will learn is having to find a balance between relating, trusting and comparing choices. But worry not; one day you will dictate your life and choose what goes into your mouth! Young self,…

Dear Self…Self Reliance is always key.

Dear Self…Self Reliance is always key.

Dear self, The going might be tough right now; Feeling like no one is ever in your corner. You can't lose faith! It gets better with time. Don't be desperate to show different men love; Some are simply there to teach you lessons. Crying is healthy, super relieving. So do it more often. Don’t be such an open book, living like that is a double edged sword. Disappointment will get so overwhelming but self reliance is always key...there are only so few people in your corner. Truth being told no one will ever be there for you like you will...so…

Dear Self…Here’s My Advice.

Dear Self…Here’s My Advice.

Dear self, Life is much bigger than what is in front you at the moment. Do not be afraid of change. Do not miss the opportunities that will present themselves to you time and time again. Don't be afraid to say what you feel, don’t be too naive and don’t be afraid to EXPERIENCE life to its fullest.  Embrace every lesson; you’ll be grateful for you learn from them. Every single one will make you wiser. Without these lessons I'd still be the naive child you are, which I believe is a far worse fate in the real world. Remember,…

Dear Self…Enjoy The Village.

Dear Self…Enjoy The Village.

Dear self,  You are blessed to be surrounded by nature, ​ By the blue sky, by the starry dark night, Therefore run free, Dip in the ponds. Be grateful for the vegan organic foods you eat every day.

Dear Self…You Deserve Your Love.

Dear Self…You Deserve Your Love.

Dear self, You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire world deserve your love. Until you value yourself, you won't value your time and opportunity. No one is in position to do so but you yourself. A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval...and as you become a man, self-confidence will be enough self approval. Never be bullied into silence as you have a voice that should be heard but only and only for the right reasons. Finally Love yourself first. Always! Everything else falls into line. You will learn the hard lesson that even your closest relative…

Dear Self, This is an update.

Dear Self, This is an update on 20 year old you. I have been able to un-mask the snakes, liars hypocrites. But I have been able to discover my true friends too. They have shown me, during the times that where’ve forgotten, how worthy I am. I have been able to know what true love is. End of update, Daph, 20 year old you.

Dear Self…There is NOTHING you cannot achieve.

Dear Self…There is NOTHING you cannot achieve.

 Dear self I know you believe and have confidence in who you are. But your worth stretches far beyond what you can possibly imagine. There is nothing, NOTHING, you cannot achieve.   Things will sometimes go horribly wrong in order for them to become better...so buckle up! The hardest lesson you will learn is that NO ONE can ever be fully trusted. And unfortunately, no one can ever live and not trust someone or anyone completely. But do not worry, you shall find a balance.   The Spiritual being called God has your back…Always...but that's no reason to be reckless…
