Wow, Old things have passed away.

 Not many people know me, most times, people never truly do.

At this moment in time, a lot of things exist happening simultaneously around the world. Some good some bad. These things eventually come to you in the form of people and events, you 'taste' the world. You witness its beauty and ugliness.

Each new experience forms your person.

You learn you unlearn, you relearn. I'm going to be 24 years in two days. This feels like such a huge number. Do I feel my age? Nope. 

Since my mum passed 8 years ago, I had felt stuck in time. Never really growing up mentally because there were no longer parental markers to highlight my growth.

You were on your own. 

I noticed I still craved things, juvenile things as I aged, and I wanted them with the fervency I would have had, when I was younger.

I talked to my brother about this and he was able to help me get out of that state.

Now I'm not afraid to grow up. It's a blessing to be able to grow up. God made you, He knew what would happen, that I wouldn't grow up with my parents, that was why He became my strength.

He replaced my parents and raised me Himself. Talk about having the Creator raise you Himself.

What have I achieved? First, I'm saved by Christ. That is still my biggest achievement.

The second is that He's using me to save others.

Even as I experienced the good and the bad of this world, and my person formed, I didn't lose myself, who I was at my core. 

I now understand the world better but I found that nothing could make me waver. 

No one will be able to change my mind about what I believed in. It took a lot of falling and rising but my mindset is cemented in God's word.

If the world decides to be turbulent, I'll be the unmoving rock that breaks the head of the tide.

One thing is for certain, I shall fulfil my destiny whether the devil likes it or not. He cannot stop me. He knows. But he's trying to delay me, devil you can't.

He threw things at me thinking I would fall, but it only kept strengthening my resolve each day, I will become a force to be reckoned with, the darkness' worst nightmare.

I shall inherit this world because the meek shall inherit the world.


I am LIGHT, UNDER GOD. AND THIS WORLD SHALL KNOW HIM.

The fear has passed away.

The Coconut

Brown on the outside but white on the inside. Brown signifies dirt, even more than this is the texture that the coconut bears. It is hard and almost impossible to break without an external force. There is nothing appealing about the appearance of a coconut, but on the inside... On the inside is sweetness, pureness and softness. One entity and yet different from two perspective. A person may seem very hard on the surface, by your standards a very tough wild human being, but he feels too just like you do. In fact, he might be softer than what most might think. Have you ever thought about why he does the things he does, why he's arrogant and acts out? Maybe more than an over inflated ego is a softness, a sore part he's trying to hide. The key is understanding people though it's not always easy, 'cause you need patience and love; two very scarce things these days. I'm not excusing them but I just think, there is a reason for eve...

THE LOOP

The future is where we belong. The past is gone. The present has been exiled in a time loop. And that is where I am. ~~~~~~~~ Past...present...future. I don't even know where I am anymore. I just, exist. I eat, drink, sleep but yet I'm not living. I'm alive but at the same time, I'm dead. I breathe air—oxygen, so why do I feel like I'm suffocating? Is anybody out there? If yes, save me... . . . . Kiara was on the floor sleeping, dreaming about what the day would hold. Would the rising sun bring something new or would it be the usual; work, work, work? You see the work was different for her. There were three things she did daily as a means of income; Wash, clean, sleep. Now the sleep ain't the same one y'all thinking. Kiara yawned the third time in three minutes and sat up. She lived in a small town where farmers grew their food to eat and sold the rest. She was an orphan which means that she had no one to provide, but ...

Prompt 1: Mykonos

Prompt: Pick a name, a place, thing and an emotion and write a short horror story about it. Name: Lauren Place: Mykonos A thing: Plier Emotion: Confused/Happy (pick any) Dedicated to Monijesu (Phaserprime) ****** She was gone and it's been two days. It's been two days of gut-wrenching anxiety and dread. The usual lively island was gloomy, giving it a rather tense atmosphere. Everybody knew everybody here, that was why when news of the cheery thirty-year-old fashion designer went missing, the whole island panicked. Mykonos was a small Greek island known for its Cycladic structures that often reminded people of the bronze ages. Mykonos was a summer house for the rich, the top percent of the population, a place to relax for vacations or just to get away from all the tension of the busy life that only the rich could relate to. Usually, it wasn't hard to move around here, usually you took a casual walk around town without having to worry about getting stabbed or shot...
