Major cheat code for life: Be fully where your feet are. When you're at work, work. When you're with family, be with family. When you're resting, rest. Most people are physically present and mentally everywhere else.

we’re here at this point of our lives for a reason

It is finished 🥹🩵🧑🏾‍🎓 I am overcome with so many emotions. I am so grateful to have been able to do this. I am leaving @Columbia with STEM Designated MPA concentrating in International Finance and Economic Policy. I’ve now conquered the edge and Ivy League. Grad week loading…

Sometimes you'll get exactly what you prayed for and it will scare you, because once you have it in your hands, it's under your control, and that level of responsibility can be overwhelming. So in all your prayers, pray for wisdom too, so you know how to handle your blessings.

These dialogues sparked by the Skeem Saam episode really go to show how poor and disorganised our ideas of consent and violation are. I am writing to share an experience I had during a recent project on set, involving a violation of my personal boundaries in a scene where the character I was playing was being murdered and r*ped.

“until death all defeat is temporary” has helped me so much with my anxiety

I met a lady in her mid 50s and I can’t shake off the conversation we had. She subtly reminded me that there’s a timeframe to run and work as hard as you can and you shouldn’t miss that window. Take your highest earning and natural strength timeline seriously.

i think it's beautiful how life gives you infinite chances to experience better. just when you think you'll never find better, you walk right into better and your heart softens again.

imagine looking back one day and realizing you were brave enough to chase the life you truly wanted and it worked.

THIS.

It's extremely important to realise that you were beautiful before someone noticed and you'll remain beautiful in their absence. Your beauty is not subjected to who values you for it.

GIRLLLLLLLLLLL, SLOW DOWN 💕 📖 Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” You’ve been rushing everything. Trying to fix it, figure it out, make it happen faster… But not everything is meant to be forced. Some things need time. Some things need God’s timing. You don’t have to carry the pressure of “when” and “how” it’s going to happen. God already knows. So pause for a moment. Breathe. Let go of the need to control everything… and trust that what’s meant for you will come at the right time 💕✨
