I’ve been resuscitated by shock of buzzing soul. A soul which courted mine and ultimately had itsef unconditionally inertwining with mine together,two souls had formed cocoons in the midst of moths. Soon after ,they resurrected into buttering butterflies,just as the Son of God ressurrected from the tomb. My life will never be the same.
I’m revived inside and out.

The mind is in a realm of a never-ending spiral of undecided decisions and paralytic dreams.Nobody can truthfully say that some things dont scare them,especially when its their own dreams.Although most dreams end up forgotten in the moments of awakening,some just typically became an experience of Deja Vu.

Love thyself ,forgive thyself and empower thyself.They tell us that is the motto right?Every glance in the mirror is simply an affirmation that theself is still the most important person apart from anyone else on the planet. Not in a self-centred way,rather selfless

I’ve grown to make peace ,grown to forgive and grown to forget.. in fact,I’ve grown to eliminate i now believe in miracles. Miracles are prayers which God answers when you least expect it.I’ve become a goddess who is powerful beyond measure. i’m a conqueror amongst warriors.I’m revived.I’m restored.I’m me... again

the self is the most important apect of being human apart from physically living.The body can be manoeuvring on a daily bais yet the self can be dead.The mind can be exploring the various worlds of the world yet the body can be paralysed. The two can barely ever co-exist unless the self treats the two as mechanisms which cant function without the other.the self is the remote control/ the mind is the wiring and the body is the structure. the three components from what we known as life.

When will my life truly matter? When will the brutality end? Why does it have to take 102 lives each year for you still not to listen? Why does it have to take the melanin in my skin to pose a threat to you?

I’m revived and I’m restored. The soul within me has opened up and is effortlessly kept open. Miraculously enough, my revival was restored upon a return. The realese of my sorrow led to the elimination of my pain which ultimatley revived and restored my spirit. I am human. I’m human based on not the ability to be existent,but the ability to live. One can exist yet still be dead.

i was revive when i last expected it. Resotored when i thought i didn’t need it. Here i am again ,finding sereninty amongst the rubble I’ve encountered. Smiling,laughing and loving again...genuinely.Just like a lotus forming underneath the ever so muddy waters,I have blossomed above the mud and bloomed my beauty throughout.
