I buried my mother on July 6th 2022, January 2023 I buried my cousin with whom we grew up together. Did I ever imagine that just after that month, I will bury my sister? Usually after death, you hope for a long break before having to lose another person through death. Every person deserves a break from such troubles and trials.

Never in my wildest dream, though she was battling breast cancer, did I imagine losing her. I counted her among the many who won the battle against this horrible disease. I never lost hope even when I saw her fading away. I begged her to fight.

sometimes when we ask a sick person to fight, we cannot help but feel guilty. The big question is whether we want them to fight because we don't want to lose them, or we want them to fight because it is all about the quality of their lives. This will always remain a big question when a loved one is sick.

Can we predict what life is about to bring? No! I would have loved to choose the troubles I am about to face in life but if I were to choose, I would not have been the person that I am today. They say life is hard. I would like to look at it differently, life is what you choose to make it to be.

Every person will at some point in life share their fair share of troubles. It is always your attitude that determines what you become. If you become a mourner, you will never enjoy life. No matter what life throws at you, you have to dust off the dust, shake yourself and move on.

I have not been around, I have lost a lot of time. it was never because I was busy moaning and remaining in that mode. It is all because sometimes there are things you can not control. You need a break and choose the things that matter at any point in time. Life is not about making money or success in your career.

Taking a break is a vital exercise. It is needed now and then. It is what God created because He knows that we are mere mortals.

What leaves a bad taste in my mouth is that I am studying to qualify as a medical herbalist on the other side my family is busy dying. The funniest thing is that the reason why I am studying this course is precisely for the reason that I want to help my family.

Having said all this, I am glad to say that I am back to my family. I will do my best not to vanish without letting you know what has transpired in my life. Thank you in advance for receiving me and thank you for your warm welcome.
