THE WAIT — INTRO
I had a plan.
Everything was supposed to be in full swing.
I HAD PLANS.
I was supposed to be thinking about completly different things and struggling with stuff that i would eventually look back at and laugh.
I HAD PLANS.
Nothing went according to the plan. One by one, last minute by last minute, the plans unplanned themselves, delayed themselves or just looked me in the face and said SIKE. In the beginning I was really going to just keep being tough and pretending to be fine till a friend of mine said “oh it’s a big deal no need to underplay it”. Honestly, it was one of the best things I had heard in a while. I tend to think my feelings are never valid, like i really have no right to be feeling certain things, just pray about and trust. I am a firm believer in prayer btw, but I realised I wasn’t being completely honest with God. I refused to be vunerable, putting on a facade was easier for me.
Anyway, I am in a very interesting season of my life and I am genuinely excited about it now. I haven’t completed figured out the purpose or all the things i supposed to be doing but I am looking forward to seeing it unfold.
I recently graduated from university and I have a few months before i start work and start a new phase of my life… SERIOUS STUFF. I’ve always wanted to write, I went through a whole phase after junior high school where all the content i consumed were spoken word pieces and blog posts. I wish i could write like those posts honestly, they have a way with words that just makes you wonder what schools they went to or what books they read growing up. I’ve realised I write exactly how I talk which isn’t necesarily a bad thing, except when you want to spice things up. I’m on a journey to make my writing better, one blog post at a time so i decide to start a series dubbed “THE WAIT”.
There’s a quote that says
“ Patience is not just about waiting for something…it’s about how you wait, your attitude while waiting. ”
I’m in a waiting period in my life at the moment; waiting for the manifestations of things promised and things planned. Getting to this point hasn’t been the easiest but we are here and its going to continue for a while. THE WAIT is a documentation, musings and reflections of my journey. It’s about documenting how I wait and my attitude while I wait. It’s about sharing emotions, stories and thoughts that have ran and will run through my mind in these coming weeks.
I’m truly hoping that I look back at this in a few weeks and see growth as a person, improvement in my writing and just general miishɛɛ. On that note, I would like to officially welcome you to “THE WAIT”
