Take Time

Not everything can be done.

If time allows it.

Some say you can create time,

But wasn’t time already here when you got here?

Maybe, since we already found its existence,

All we can do is learn how to use it.

How did you do it last year?

Did anything good occur to you?

Did you do any good to yourself or someone else?

How efficient were you in everything you’ve done?

If most were done half-way through,

You’ve probably didn’t full accomplish anything.

And listen, I am not the one to judge here.

Nope. Not the one who is going to tell you if that’s okay or not.

Not me. You already know.

Whatever responsibility or homework you’ve given yourself,

You are the grader of your success.

I’ve sat motionless a lot of the times last year.

Looked deadpan a lot of the times.

Felt and saw nothing working while I did the work.

Heck, I’ve given up when I knew I was not supposed to.

Don’t tell me it’s okay.

I know what it was. But okay was not it.

I know because when I gave up, regret filled my soul. I could not think no more.

In fact, I fell into sorrow that only I could decide to arise from it.

Spring up with the help of the most Highest God.

Now, decide, it’s up to you.

If you want to waste 12 months the same way you did in the past,

Nobody can stop you!

It’s funny how the time fly fast when you start to realize how old you are getting.

And how age can be a factor of your actions.

Some are like, I can’t believe I used to cry and refuse nap time when asked to.

Now, wishing to get a least 5hrs of sleep at night.

Can’t believe that I used to lie to myself that I am all grown.

Packing up my stuff when little arguments occurred.

Crying because I thought I wasn’t as beautiful as my neighbor friend.

Hmmm, if only I understood the meaning “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”.

Surely my eyes hold confidence now, I didn’t have back then.

Oh and my lips and my hips,

I remember Vic bullying me for being different.

Now God showed his wrath to him and made him pay for his girlfriend’s.

Some call it karma.

Others call it ‘do not do unto others what you wouldn’t like done unto you’.

But again, let’s not loose track here.

Let’s not bring childhood trauma into the future.

Let’s allow ourselves to heal.

To take a step of faith into deliverance every day.

It’s not too late for most.

And even if it is, try while you are still alive.

A whole lot can happen in a year.

12 months is a lot of time to not waste sitting, bitting, cutting and suffering.

Try. Try God at once.

Stop blaming yourself, or others for what happened to you or at you or around you.

If there is something heavy on your heart, or in your mind.

Show it to God. Surrender it to Him. And ask for his guidance.

Take time. Take your time. Don’t rush and don’t compete with nobody.

Even if you are a twin, triplet or whatever. There is nobody else like you.

I repeat. Stop blaming yourself or anybody else.

Now you know the truth.

One step at a time. Start the change you always wanted to see now! Today!

All the best in 2025!
