LET’S TALK ABOUT “HEALING” TODAY!!

 

Before and After everything else, Healing comes first.

You heal before you take a new step, and you heal after you meet the chaos and catastrophe.

Healing is a deeply personal journey.
Realistically, there’s nothing like a one-size-fits-all approach to healing.
If your path looks different from others, don’t be disheartened; embrace your own journey and trust that it’s leading you exactly where you need to be.
No one knows how much you’ve been through, the paths and routes you’ve been to or you’ve had to take.

I read something that said; “May the quality of people you attract be a reflection
of the healing and hard work you’ve put into yourself over time.”
No matter how much you wish you could, there’s no way you can control how
another person feels or thinks about you.
That’s why it is important to surround yourself with people who are committed to understand
who you truly are.
The kind of people that are soft and gentle with your heart and soul,
the ones who will let you be yourself and make you smile with their presence,
those who are warm and make you feel safe and understood.

Be in a constant state; allow things to come and go. Detach yourself from stories that say you aren’t whole. You can’t heal when you don’t remove yourself from what’s causing you pain.
Healing isn’t about arriving at a place where everything is rosy but learning to develop the ability to respond and plant your own garden of roses.

Therapy with blossom wrote; “Sorrow is a teacher.
without periods of lowness, we may never question our
circumstances or make necessary adjustments.
We may lack deeper empathy.
We may never truly appreciate the highs, either.  But most importantly, we must HEAL.”

Build the power of your discernment; honour and protect it.
Give yourself grace and put it to heart that;
“Nothing about your healing journey is wrong.”
Take your time, choose to move slowly; one small shift at a time and you will get there.

As you heal, as you search for peace in the midst of chaos know that; “you may never get back
to the person you were before it all happened. The trauma, the abuse, the assault, the discrimination, the stigma, the depression, your rights being violated, the segregation, the pain and the hurt but let go of it all, you are someone who has survived a storm. HEAL!!!

  1. Healing is not easy but it has to be done and the first step as you have mentioned is letting Go

AWAKENING: STORIES UNTOLD, STORIES UNHEARD AND STORIES UNREAD

Correct me if I am wrong, but I remember all the words you like to say behind closed doors. She whispered in my ear “I take you as you are and you will be. I won’t try to change you but I will ride out change with you. I see you and I will never ask you to be less or more.” With words so charming and full of meaning, that’s how she destroyed me. I have been awed and terrified by the experience of being in love to the extent that when it’s love, I’d rather close the book and put it back on the shelf. I do not know how to hate no matter how much I have been wronged. I met Tuseke when I had gone for my usual check-up at the hospital. She was there to visit her grandmother who was gravely ill and on admission. She had asked for directions to get to the elderly female ward, that was just the same way to Doctor Mayepi’s office. My all time go to health practitioner. We walked hand in hand and talked about a few things on science and medicine. She hated being around the hosp...

I LIVE

  The phase I was in weeks ago made me question my existence on earth “perhaps, has my time elapsed?” I have escaped a number of accidents for two weeks in a roll. I was on bed rest. Got back on feet and faced yet another accident day after day “I thought my life has come to an end.” “I could barely let food pass my throat; the fear-anxiety and the stress all over it of what becomes of me the next day was too much for my mind” “is death beckoning me?” I asked myself a couple of random questions just to be sure I was on a right spot - safe and sane “I must repent.” “Change my ways, stay sane even in the midst of the rumbling thunder that was ready to take over in my brain.” So I rose up, charged myself up “enough is enough.” My mother had already said a prayer of favor  over me. She blessed me right from the day I was conceived. “You shall not die before your time, you shall live to fulfill  your purpose on earth; No man anywhere will deny you of your dues, the harvest of ...

LETTER TO KAMBANI

  Dearest Kambani, I write this note to you for there is an ache in my ribs. Your sugar-coated deceit made its way through and I felt like all the air left my lungs after I heard and read out all your lies. You said; “I will answer you before you even call to me.” Little did I know you were trying to memorize Jeremiah 33:3 on me. You said; “I will be your peace.” But; Don’t be my peace. I already have that. First, be at peace with yourself and everything around you. I know this note will make you remember the warmth of my touch, how it made your heart race, the joy you claimed I brought to you. I had mixed portions of happiness and loyalty between the things I love and you with a pinch of sugar to align the moments. That’s how much I cared. I am blooming in your absence after being trapped in the cage of your lies and deceit, after you sliced me a dose of pain and moments of tears. Leaving you came hand in hand with finding myself – Broken but Function...

WHISPERS AND PROMISES

  In this story of mine you have always been the best chapter! I’d rather take all the storms than have all the sunshine days without you around!   Though emptiness consumes me I surely will wait on time to lead me to you, for you hold the pieces that makes me whole! I met an angel; I saw it in your eyes with whispers and lost in your gaze making myself a promise to never let go of you! 

LETTER FROM JERICHO

  Let me be a man who will never compromise the truth but rather speak of the truth in love. Let me be bold and be trusting you in all things that are worrisome to me. Let me heal all my wounds instead of spreading the pain. Let me outgrow all the spaces I have shrank myself to fit. Let me pick up courage with my hands even when I am not sure of how strong they are to hold it all.
