Grow up! Then...Glow up!


Let me put y’all in my business real quick! Life has me stressed out, y’all hear me? Like I’m still in the space where I’m literally still in the process of getting back on track/ tryna figure out some thangs about life. I made a plan, I wrote it down, and now I’m executing it. The only problem is, I’m already in the stage where I see it working but it’s not moving fast enough for me. This is the part where I fuck up at.


If you’re anything like me, then you are 100% obsessed with TikTok and makeup transition videos. Now, I’m never one to speak for others but, I think my ladies can agree when I say, “if only getting cute was just that easy.” That 20% of a baddie would turn into 100 baddie all the time if it was THAT easy, but it’s not and we all know it. Why do we naturally always want the results but never the process to actually get the results? We could have a blueprint to cure cancer within 6 months but, there will always be a thought of, okay but could we speed up the process a bit? Why do we do that?


Question: Have you ever seen a Chinese bamboo tree?

Today, I’ve learned that if it’s well managed, it takes about 5 years to even peak through the ground. After those 5 years, the tree can grow up to 90 ft. tall in a matter of just a few weeks or so. Point is, good things come to those who wait. Usually when those good things happen, they happen for the people who actually put in time and effort. Right now I’m in a position where I know for a fact that God is going to bless me and turn my test into a testimony, however it’s not going to happen tonight. Like I said in my last post, I like to be able to create my own space, environment, energy, or whatever you want to call it. So when I get my new apartment, new car, new job opportunities, new lifestyle, new joy, new peace, new happiness….I’m going to be so overwhelmed with emotions because I stood by the process in order to get here. Going through the process can cause a lot of anxiety, depression, and even thoughts of suicide because you feel like you just want to give up. DON’T GIVE UP! Your time is coming!


Be patient within your time of growth, cause it’ll all be worth it. You ever look at someone, and just see a happy glow….well that’s gonna be one day. So when you see me being happy, just know I worked hard for it and I deserve this!
