CHANGES

 


It’s definitely one thing that is constant in life. I have realized I’ve been so scared of it. Imagine stepping out of my shell, out of my comfort zone into a reality that I’m uncertain about. 

How do I navigate through these uncertainties?

How do I find my footing?

How do I find a place I can call my own?

Change is like a rude awakening. It wakes you up from your slumber and plunges you deep into realities you never knew existed. 

In as much as I’m trying to adjust, I can’t deny the fact that I’m scared. Scared of not knowing what to do, scared of what the future holds. 

I definitely may not know what the future holds, but I’m certain of the one who holds my future. He will hold my hand and guide me every step of the way

I’ve never been at this phase of my life before. It’s all so new to me I must confess. I’ve always wanted this phase of my life to come. I wonder why I’m no longer excited about it. 

I’m going to take it one step at a time till it all becomes familiar to me. Till I can finally find my footing. Till I can finally be comfortable in an uncomfortable zone. 

I’ll rest in the fact knowing that I have a God that neither sleeps nor slumbers. He will help me navigate through this process and be my strength in my weakest times.

NAIJA TO YANKEE

  NAIJA TO YANKEE On May 31st, I left my seemingly perfect life in Nigeria for greener pastures abroad. This was one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make in my whole life. I am naturally a very indecisive person, so making this kind of life altering decision for me was the last straw that broke my camel's back. "Tami please stop crying now, I promise you'll be fine" my friend said to me as i broke down in tears at the airport. Nothing he said to me or tried to do made me feel any better than i already felt. I didn't see any need to leave the country that had become my home over the years to go and start building all over again in another man's country. But that is the beauty of what's ahead. You get to rewrite your story all over again and erect structures out of nothing. I cried till there were no tears left to cry. I cried till my eyes hurt and didn't have the strength to continue. I had lived in denial all along till the day i was to go ...

Ota girl, Lagos babe.

  OTA GIRL, LAGOS BABE RELOCATION   It all started when I packed my life into two boxes and headed for Lagos A week earlier I had just graduated from the university and celebrated in grand style. Little did I know what was waiting for me on the streets of lagos. It was NYSC that brought me here o. I had worked my posting to Lagos and also gone to collect my acceptance letter from a media house on the island. “Me, a 9-5 girlie?” I thought to myself as my journey to Lagos began on a Saturday morning.
