Life; Only But A Collection of Moments...

Monday, 16 August

I know that I've been AWOL for days now on read.cash but that's only because of school and work among other things. However, I'm here now and that's what matters, yeah?.

Hey, look! I'm back to writing again, isn't that great? Well, it's just that ever since my last article I've just been dealing with one thing or the other, much like a rollercoaster of feelings and stuff but I'm writing again and I'm just so excited. Now, I can say all is right in the world🤣

I don't know if you guys remember what my last article is about but if you don't here's the link https://read.cash/@The.Ada/seven-states-apart-74884ff2 The name of the article is "Seven States Apart" I wrote that article based on how I was feeling about my sister's trip, now that's she's left and settled in school already I'm just grateful to God for journey mercies. There were some hiccups on the way but she was able to make it to her destination in good health of mind and body. I'm eternally grateful to God for that. So begins her life over there and I couldn't be any prouder of her.

That being said, My sister, before she left asked me to write about one of our favorite quotes of all time. I've been putting off writing about it and I'm not even sure why but now seems like a good thing to write about it so Lil Sis, here goes nothing...

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same."

This quote, or should I say poem was written by Marianne Williamson. The reason why I can say this poem is one of my all-time favourites is because of how empowering, inspiring and rejuvenating a feeling it elicits when you read it with conviction. This first time I came across this poem, it felt as though I was it was directed at me and I felt connected to it. I really resonated with it, I still do.

Truth is, I'd almost forgotten about this quote. This is one of my all-time favorite quotes but at that time when my sister brought it up, it just didn't occur to me because I was dealing with a lot at the time. Now, with her absence it's like I'm trying to hold on so dearly to all those memories and moments that I would normally take for granted. Funny how life works though, each day I'm reminded about all the moments, the good, the bad and even the ugly ones shared with her and I'm holding on to those moments ever so dearly cause right now they're priceless.

A/N: I strongly believe that life is only but a collection of moments, the idea is to have as many good ones as you can. That's my philosophy in life cause I don't want to be one of those people who can't see the value of a moment until it becomes a memory. I don't know if anybody shares my sentiments on this but to know that it's just not me who sees life that this would go a long way.

>>Good day everyone, I'm just glad to have the opportunity to share my writeup here once again. This is one of many amazing writeups I'm going to be sharing and I'm just so excitedly ecstatic. I'm Grateful literally and figuratively.
