Happy birthday to me

I have been meaning to write something on my blog every day this week in anticipation of my birthday today. Well, here I am. I have been thinking a lot and I have been reflecting on my life lately. All I can say is that I am overwhelmed by God's love and mercies on my life and how far I've come. He has brought me from a terrible place to a happy place. By this time last year, I was in one of the worst periods of my adult life. I felt everything was going against me and I felt that God must have forgotten me. My birthday last year was the worst I had. I wasn't where I was hoping to be and I felt I was sinking and that God must have abandoned me. I practically gave up. I didn't care about myself or about my life, since everything was going against me.

I have every reason to thank God for where I am now, for where He brought me from and where He is taking me to. I am a work in progress and my life is so much happier than it was. I am not where I want to be, but I am not where I used to be.

I faced a lot of challenges last year, I learnt the true meaning of humility. I found God and He found me but I still had my doubts and asked different questions about God. Thinking about it all now, I believe that all things work out for good to them who trust The Lord. Things are getting better and the lines are falling into the right places.

I have so much love to give. I love them that love me and also those that hate me. All I have to give is nothing but love. I know, I have been there before and love set me free. First of all, I learnt to depend on me and to love myself. Just as Whitney Houston sang in "The Greatest Love of All" 'I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows.... If I fail, if I succeed, At least I'll live as I believe. No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity'. I think my greatest weakness is love. I hardly get angry. I am a naturally happy person and I tend to get along with people. This life we live is already complicated, so why stress myself with things I can't change. I don't take life seriously most times, because at the end of the day, what will be will be.

Sometime in August, I had High Blood Pressure and was placed on a blood monitor twice due to thinking about things I can't control or change. I had to take life easy and I had to stop stressing over things that were not worth it. I had to cut off from people and things that were actually raising my blood pressure.

Well, on this day 6th of November 2016, I thank God for His Mercies in my life. I am overwhelmed by God. Things have taken form in my life. I am happy, very happy. I am totally free to be me and I have cut off people who stress me and cut off things that stress me. I have taken control of my life, I am healthy, no sickness or illness, I have lost weight and living a healthy lifestyle, I work out, I found love, I found happiness and my life isn't perfect but it isn't sad and miserable.

All I can say is THANK YOU JESUS. Thank you to those who truly love and appreciate me just for being myself, an imperfect person. Thank you to my genuine family and friends for the love and support. Thank you to the people who understand me and who understand that I am fun to be with and who also understand that I also love my own company sometimes. Thank you to the friends who  know all about me and are never judgmental and have never used any thing against me. I just want to appreciate you all. I appreciate all the people that I have met in my life, both the good, the bad and the ugly, you have all made me to be what I am today, either by your omissions or by your commissions or by both. I know better now. If I knew then what I know now, my life might have been better or not... who knows?


This is me. I have a weird writing style, but I like it. I dare to be different, because I am Fantastic Eve and this is my writing style.
