Rants and unsolicited advice
Is it okay to crash here?
I’m not sure what to write to you. It’s been well over a year.
I hope you have been okay, really. Is life kind to you? I hope it is.
It’s currently overwhelming in this part of the world; Nigeria. It really is. I think it’s the best time to be surrounded by people, so you don’t lose your mind. If you’re like me (I won’t go into details), please make sure you find a way to balance your emotions, do little things that can spark up bouts of happiness, and never forget to talk to Jesus.
On talking to Jesus, recently, I’ve had these moments when the Father says “sit with me”. I have found out that when I hear that still small voice, it’s almost like a whisper, and then I realize my mind has been noisy, I was almost lost in the noise of my emotions and troubles. When I hear “sit with me”, I smile and try to slow down, and then the Father begins to realign my focus. I can then properly organize and balance the emotions in my mind that may have let me crumble. I speak to the Father about the things I don't understand- which is quite a lot, honestly.
The things I do not understand often make me feel some type of way, but I guess it’s not so bad, as long as I am constantly looking/seeking answers and knowledge of the things I do not know. I’m reading books, taking tests, researching, talking to people who are better experienced at handling their emotions, and generally just seeking knowledge. I hope you are too. There’s a wide and vast library on the library that can answer all your questions, or make you better informed as a person on the happenings of this world.
I think that constantly seeking knowledge at this time is very important. Times are changing, new things are coming up, and it’s safe and logical to be deeply rooted in what you believe, so that you may stand firm and be able to defend what you stand for when the wind of bad change starts blowing. It already is. So, when it comes to your faith, your beliefs, your behavior, your anatomy, how your mind works, money, business, politics, technology, please be more informed. Make changes where you need to and be better.
Lastly, choose Joy. Stay joyful. Let the peace of God fill your mind, soul and body, and remember this is nor permanent. This is not our home forever. All of this is but for a little while. You are loved, You are Kept, You are His.
Till I write to you next time, take care.

Thank you, Iyanuoluwa.
I’ve had this strong feeling to read books, to explore new things, but when I think about them, I just get overwhelmed and I run away 🤕.
I’ll keep trying 😔.
