You First Counseling

Peter's request for over a month has been to take me out on a date. My reply has always been NO. But Ann thinks differently- he might be a good guy on dread, who drinks and smokes. But he is human, if you think he is a beast, you should be his beauty (her words). But that might not be the reason behind rejecting his proposals.😣😣 Dinner was 7 pm @Micheal Garden Restaurant. I don't think l should go, but here l was searching for what to wear. It's less than an hour for the dinner and I'm overwhelmed?  I hate being late so l wore my second option. I arrived at the restaurant, and there he was so cute in a blue suit and weaved dread.  He got up with a smile and when l drew closer he gave me a big hug. You look beautiful he stuttered. I smiled but it was well planned, l needed him to have his eyes on me.  I wore a red criss-cross double-slit gown, tight and above the knee just as he likes it. He has never seen me like this before, l know he is shocked to his bones and l wa...

 You are a dream I can't picture I want to etch your image in my heart  I want to tell your story, how beautiful you were your favorite meal, color, country but I know nothing about you Everyone seems to be hiding the truth or know too little about you. So I have no picture of you.,  Maybe just maybe reincarnation will make the dream a reality. But right now you're a dream I can't picture  You're the blur one With ❤️ 

I am Not Grateful that I woke up, dressed up, and went to the sanctuary was while someone didn't wake up and was sent to the mortuary. I am Not Grateful because I have food on my table While some people scramble for food under the table.  I am Not Grateful I have a roof over my head While some seek shelter under the bridge.  I am Not Grateful some people are hospitalized with diseases I am free from.  I'm Not Grateful that I am progressing  While some of my mates are dead, some in school and some have given up on themselves. I am Not Grateful I got married and gave birth early  While there are men/women who are over 40 and still searching. I am Not Grateful my daughter got married as a virgin  While my neighbor's daughter was raped. Rather I am Grateful Because his grace found me just as I am. Because each day I wake up is a 2nd chance to Right my wrongs. A new day of new opportunities and ideas. Because my past/flaws is not a criterion for him to stop bles...

 Why do say you understand how I feel when I'm not done expressing how l feel?  Why apologize when you haven't understood my anger? After a fight, the fighters always explain " their anger" even when everyone is trying hard to pacify them.  Why say Oya sorry make the case die make nobody talk again when that person still has a lot to get out of their chest. Most times people don't need your empathy or sympathy, they just want to be heard and be understood. Saying I've said sorry naw creates more heat.   What happened to your active listening skills, ability to comprehend, and l pay attention to little details? Never apologize just to shut people up.  It's like spanking a child and when the child cries out you spank him/her again to keep quiet. Suppressing their pain. It's okay to say l can't picture what you went through or l wish l know how you feel right now. True- apologies work great miracles. But if you had listened you won't have to apolo...
