THE ANCHOR OF LOVE

When you love someone deeply, you never get to prepare for a moment life decides to test that love in unimaginable ways.
It's as if love becomes a crucible, a fire that refines and strengthens your bond,
pushing you to depths you never thought possible.
Love makes you strong, not just in the moments of joy and triumph,
But in the darkest of times, when the only thing that keeps you going is the unwavering commitment to care for another.

Love teaches you patience, the kind that seeps into your soul and becomes a part of your very being.
It's the patience to understand, to empathize, and to stand by someone through the storms of life.
Love teaches you devotion, a deep-seated loyalty that isn't swayed by the whims of circumstance.
It's the kind of devotion that becomes your north star, guiding you through life's uncertainties.

But most profoundly, love teaches you that care is not a duty, but an honor.
It's the privilege of being there for someone,
of holding their hand through the tough times, and celebrating with them in the good times.
When you love someone deeply, caring for them becomes not a burden, but a joy.
It's a chance to show up, to be present, and to make a difference in their life.

In the face of life's challenges, love becomes the anchor that holds you fast.
It's the safe haven where you can be yourself, without fear of judgment or rejection.
Love is the whispered promise of "I'm here for you," the gentle touch that soothes the
soul, and the warm smile that lights up the darkest of rooms.

When you love someone deeply, you discover a reservoir of strength within yourself
that you never knew existed. You learn to navigate the complexities of life with a newfound sense of purpose, driven by the desire to protect, to care, and to love.
And in the process, you find that love isn't just a feeling; it's a choice, a decision to put
someone else's needs before your own, to prioritize their happiness, and to stand by them through thick and thin.

Love is the greatest teacher, the most profound healer, and the most powerful force in the universe.
It's the thread that weaves through the fabric of humanity, connecting us all in ways we're still discovering.
And when you love someone deeply, you become part of this grand tapestry,
A masterpiece of love, care, and devotion that's still being woven, still being written.

STRETCHING MY FAITH

As I step into this new month, I stretch my faith beyond what I can see, believing in the power of your greatest miracles and divine intervention. I refuse to be limited by the constraints of my own understanding, instead, I choose to trust in your sovereignty and goodness. Your word reminds me that "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1), and I cling to this promise, knowing that you are faithful to fulfill your plans for my life. I refuse to be paralyzed by fear, for I know that it is not from you. Instead, I choose to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth, knowing that "in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). I am not defined by my circumstances, but by my identity in you. I proclaim that I am a force to be reckoned with – not because of my own strength, but because of who I am in you. I have poured out, sacrific...

TANGLED IN SHADOWS

In the depths of my unraveling, I'm tempted to surrender To the siren's whisper, a numbing, sweet thunder I'd trade the ache of awareness for the calm of the grave But the echoes of my heartbeat whisper, "You still crave". To breathe, to feel, to hurt, to rise, to fall The noose of my past tightens, a relentless, cruel call I'm suffocating under the weight of what I've done A prisoner of my memories, forever undone. The ghosts of my yesterday haunt me, a relentless crew Reminding me of the shards I've yet to glue I'm searching for a way out, a glimmer of light But the shadows they surround me, a perpetual night. In this darkness, I'm lost, a wanderer without a map The stars that once guided me, now just a distant trap I'm clingling to the fragments, the broken, shattered me Praying for a miracle, a chance to be set free. But what if the weight of my chains is what keeps me tied? What if the pain is the only thing that m...

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...

LET’S TALK ABOUT SUICIDE DISEASE TODAY!!

Society thinks someone who is suicidal is a person who is crying uncontrollably every moment, engaging in dangerous activities and constantly in a bad state. At times, it’s the complete opposite. Persons who are suicidal may not act it at all. Suicide is not selfish. It is normally death caused by the illness of depression. It is the final symptom, a final collapse under unbearable weight. I read somewhere that said; “ Having anxiety and depression is like being scared and tired at the same time. it’s the fear of failure but no urge to be productive. It’s wanting friends but hate socialising. It’s wanting to be alone but not wanting to be lonely. It’s caring about everything then caring about nothing. It’s feeling everything at once then feeling paralyzingly numb.” Many people who suffer with poor mental health do actually reach out and are either ignored, fobbed off with high dosage medications or put on waiting lists for months. Such scenarios have a probability of leading on...
