REGRET

 It is always something you should not have said or done that damages your relationship with someone you care about or not. And it is in this manner that I want to talk about regret. Not the one that is a result of things beyond your control but the ones which you could have controlled but overlooked.

Nothing makes you feel like shit the way this kind of regret does. 

My friend once told me that regret is the worst emotion and I completely agree. Because how does something make you dwell on it and not move forward because you're thinking a thousand things you should have done better and rarely presents you with an opportunity to rewind time in order for you to do better?

Usually, the problem here is not really whether you are sorry or not but that the deed has been done and there is no going back. This kind of regret just says, "It is what it is" and expects you to accept it even if it makes you cry every night.

This type of regret gets even worse in the matter of death. 

Here, the universe offers you no chance to make amends except even in reincarnation (that is if you think reincarnation to be a real thing) because no two persons are the same.

It was in a book that I first saw this statement, "Don't let anyone in your life die without forgiving you" or you forgiving them and I can't tell how much of a good advice this is because if you ever let it happen, you may not survive the heart pain that would follow afterwards.

Regret never serves a fair deal or maybe it's actually fair this time since you made the choice, right? You may want to think through the choices you make daily especially in your relationship with others.  

Regrets which come as a result of your bad choices will likely stare you in the face all your life and struggle your pajamas with you every night.

Do watch out for that guy! Because you need good sleep everyday and consistent sighing increases the size of your lips( Ask google if you doubt me).

The Result is in the Repetitions

  Do you have favorite writers or people you truly admire their craft and think they are great today? You should check out their first book, article or the first work they did and compare with what they're doing now.  The first thing you'll discover is that growth and development has happened because they learned on the job and are still learning. This is just the way life works. Nobody starts out perfect. Many people who are great today had blurry pictures of their skills when they started but as they journeyed, the picture kept getting clearer and clearer. If you're still doubting that you have what it takes to start your journey, you should read "Do you have what it takes?" Here's the link: https://favourchimamaka.blogspot.com/2022/01/do-you-have-what-it-takes.html  My cousin once told me that the result is in the repetitions and honestly, this is so true. Consistency is not easy to attain but it holds the key to attaining perfection. These are the words of...

PAIN; AN ENEMY OF FAITH

Do you know it’s easy to believe that God heals the sick and brokenhearted when you are not the sick or the brokenhearted? It is also easy to believe that God makes the blind to see, the deaf to hear and the lame to walk when you are not the blind, the deaf or the lame. Of course, God raises the dead when you are not the dead. But I’ll tell you what, when you become the person directly affected by these situations, you'll understand that there's a level of pain that fights faith with all of its resources and at the end shows if you ever truly believed or not. The truth about pain is that it is an inevitable part of humans’ existence. HOW DOES PAIN FIGHT AGAINST FAITH? 1. It takes away your happiness: The first thing pain does in anyone’s life is make them unhappy. Of course, the universe does not expect you to stay happy if you’ve been fighting cancer for the past few years or have lost your both parents and siblings in a year. So gradually, you’ll discover that nothing makes ...

How to not lose someone you love

Have you ever hurt someone or gotten in a very bad place with someone you genuinely care about? Here are some tips that could help you revive your relationship with that person. 1. Be honest with yourself: By being honest, you must accept that you need this person and that you do not want to lose them forever regardless of what may have happened. Forget that they say no man is indispensable, but you know that there are just people you can't afford to lose. This acceptance helps you take away pride; that feeling that makes you think you don't need them even you know that you do. 2. Get to know the details: Many times, it is not proper to leave certain things unsaid when you hurt people. You should hear from them if they're willing to speak to you and know how your actions directly or indirectly affected them. What this does is that it helps your apology that will come afterwards not to exist in a vacuum. You must know what exactly you're being sorry for in order to h...
