I Beg To Differ - A Girl Movement!

We all know the bible verse “… A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones” (Prov 17v22) but do we really understand it. There was a time I hated hearing it, I was in so much pain and hurt. I didn’t want anything but to just recount and replay in my head all that happened to me. All the wrongs that were done to me were somehow precious to me. I was very young and bitter. Saddest thing is, the people who hurt me couldn’t have cared less if I was alive or dead. And because they didn’t care, I started feeling less and less important; but more and more loving the thought of being a victim. As time went, I realised that I was watching my life pass me by. I was wasting time being consumed in hatred and anger. While my peers were going for their dreams, I was sobbing every day. I wanted to be happy, cheerful and ambitious again, but it was so foreign to me. So I started doing things differently… 1.        I began by giving myself permission

Maturity isn’t just about how old one is. It’s a lot of processes that one has gone through to certify them matured. For instance one may have a great job with amazing benefits, but because they haven’t had any life lessons on money they might spend their earnings anyhow. But one who has had a fair share of either poverty or financial strain will spend their earnings different. Maturity comes from experience . So why then are we quick to judge those who seem to be slow in grasping life. I mean we also didn’t know better until it happened to us. And did we even ask for “life changing experiences” to happen to us? No we didn’t; it just happened and we were changed by them. It’s about awareness; calmly seeking understanding and as a result we become mature. We all know life is the best teacher; but if life has taught others about certain things/experiences yet, how then do you judge? For a girl who has had it all knows different to a girl who has never had it. Sh
