Dear You, And You. And You…

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

Before I even start this, let me give full credit to Michael Reid for this poem. Admittedly, I’m biased, but I believe we women are powerful beyond measure. We excel at multitasking. We are innately compassionate. We are natural bridge builders, peacemakers and cheerleaders. We have nurturing hearts and can move mountains when we set our minds to it. Yet too often, we sell ourselves short. Way too short. So as this month comes to an end; I am sharing this poem a friend sent me with all the women out there... ************************************************ Dear Woman, Sometimes You'll just be too…

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

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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…Please! Stay In School.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

Dear self, You grew up in a small village and sometimes you had less, But God blessed you with two powerful angels that are mom and dad. Both would go hungry to see you have food on the table, both would stay up all night just to watch you sleep. The introduction to education was the best part of your childhood. With knowledge you gained power and with power your sad past life started to fade... Today you continue to rise not because of what you do but because of what you know A famous writer said in the current error you're…

Dear Self…Introspection is Crucial.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

Dear self, Breathe. There will be days where everything is good and others where you feel alone. Just breathe through it. It'll pass. You'll meet people who are worth it and others, who'll just be passing through your life. Breathe. The greatest lessons I can share with you; ANYONE can be toxic in your life. It doesn't matter if its family or friends, their behavior can really harm you. Even you yourself can be toxic to someone. So introspection is crucial. People will take your kindness for weakness and take you for granted then make you the villain when you…

Dear Self…Enjoy The Village.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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. Tell mother and father that you love them and are grateful for their labor to feed and educate you. Love living in nature (the village) because the air and water are purer than anywhere else. Enjoy your large extended family living all around you, it’s the biggest blessing. Dear Self…Life Is Beyond Us. Tell people you love them, don’t worry about things…

Dear Self…You Deserve Your Love.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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.

C256 Member0 CommentsLetters To Self

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 neither…
