2018



Ever since I clocked 23, I have been stressing about life. The pressure to be the best version of me and especially of acquiring success has been eating me up. There’s nothing wrong with wanting those things but I feel like I’m working towards a clock, and I only have a specific period of time to do these things. I think it’s just what society has made me believe. “I have to be in school at this age, I have to get married at a certain age, have kids at that age, bla bla bla….” Listening to people and the norm messes with your vibe LOL. Everyone has a TIME, and it is specific to just YOU. Kind of like how everyone is special and unique in their own way, same way people have different moments life happens for them. I can’t sit here and dwell on how a girl I went to school with who’s also 23, is married with a kid. Why exactly should that bother me? It doesn’t mean I have failed as a human being because I’m not there YET. Never ever look at someone’s life and feel bad about yours. It’s their time. Be happy for them.

I have always been the girl that never settles. I want something?? I work towards it and I don’t stop till I get it. After I graduated from the university, I didn’t know what I wanted from life. I found myself thinking: “I just want any job…I don’t care, as long as it’s not too tasking and I make money”. WHAT?? I have no idea the person I was back then. Sometimes you find yourself in a shell and you are scared of what you are capable of so you shrink back in it every time something daunting comes up. I knew there was something missing because I felt so ordinary. That wasn’t me. I wasn’t really living, I was only existing. I had to move veryyyy far away from my comfort zone for it to make sense to me again. The things I didn’t think I was capable of? I’m kicking a** at them right now. Do not get me wrong, it hasn’t been easy. Nothing is easy especially the best, most amazing things. They never come easy. Kind of makes me remember a quote from one of my favorite movies: “Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure”. You know the things you think you will suck at? The things you haven’t even tried but think you won’t excel at? Well, let me break it to you… you will not know till you try. FAIL! FAIL at it. But get up and try again. Keep trying till you get what you want. Who says failure is terrible thing? Don’t sit there and regret things you did not do. It’s better to try them, and if it doesn’t happen, you’ll know you tried.

So, do not work at the pace they want you to because you think you are running out of ‘time’. Who invented timeđź‘€? Certainly not people.... Things may not make sense right now. We all don’t know what we are doing as we are only doing our best. But I promise you the future will always bring love, light, understanding and clarity. Do not put your happiness in the hands of a bunch of strangers who think they know it all. Keep working and striving hard. It’s all going to pay off in the end❤!

CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR ...

Careful what you wish for… I hope I look back on this day and feel a sense of fulfillment  and think to myself it was all worth it.. I hope I think and smile about the days I didn't wana get out of bed, talk to anyone and just hide out in my room because no one gets it.. I hope I remember this day and think about the good memories and not the dark thoughts in my head fighting to take over my mind.. I hope I forget what its like to feel like a constant disappointment and remember the light I bring forth I am struggling to hold on to my purpose and just a little sign that I am doing it  right would be nice…. ...you wana feel what it is like to walk in my shoes? Careful what you wish for! -mia x  03/25/2021

I'M BACK

Image
Hi Everyone, It's been ages! I'm not even going to make excuses for being MIA. So, let’s get on with it...shall we? The most important thing to me is my authenticity and that is exactly what most of my readers cherish about my blog. Be rest assured that, what I post is real, genuine and not sugar coated at all. The truth is, I stayed away from blogging because I have always known my writing to be connected to my emotions and lately, they have been chocking and all shades of crazy. I wasn’t sure I wanted to share because, irrespective of my transparency, I am also a very private person. However, a certain someone said to me “I think it’s the time for you to write. Put your emotions into writing…you have the FUEL”. Ok!   You guys want the truth? The truth you shall have. My name is Simi and this is my story…. HAHHAHAH. Sounds dramatic huh? Anyway, I won't be spilling any tea today but trust me I have some. However, this is a welcome back post and I will be very act...

Fitting in...

Image
You know what you want to be but society has something different planned for you. It's stressful meeting up actually, very difficult.  People don't realise how hard you work to try and fit into the image of you they have in their heads. You are a CIRCLE.  You have always been a circle,  you can develop yourself into something more but in that pattern. People don't buy the idea of you being a circle,  'YES ! Square.  That's what would suit her ' .                       Little do you know that in the process of trying to be square, you cut out the edges of the circle to try and fit into the square shape.  The little cuts you trim out of yourself... you know?  the one you think doesn't count because you so desperately want to be square shaped?  That's your strength and uniqueness . People are different, we all have something special that makes us different from the other,  it's how we are ma...
