what do you say?


I had a short conversation with a friend and she complained about herself to me,

'been feeling kinda low lately, its like I'm stuck in a mold. complaints flow freely and that i hate, my feels keep oscillating. I'm tired of asking God for a change, plain tired..............guess I'm just in the mood. no smiles on my face , tears stinging my eyes,tired all over that's how i feel. then there is this deep gnawing in somewhere inside,I'm just in the wrong place,wrong time..wrong'.

there was nothing particularly wrong physically as she tried explaining her recent feelings,apart from she was very single,been in a series of broken relationships and a broken marriage, lonely, caught up in a dead end job, flat out broke.
i felt kinda sorry for her and wished i could help,being depressed is a scary feeling and that was where she was now,what do you tell a depressed friend to lighten her spirit up? most times we wait to see an outward expression of happiness and forget that joy comes from within out.

How do you tell Azal whose husband walked out on her after a month of marriage because of family pressure and feels rejected about trust,what do you tell C after seeing the other woman at her boyfriend's house about love and faithfulness? what do you say to Tiana who feels rejected and used by someone who promised by law? what do you tell these women, when all they ever wanted was friendship,love and trust. what do you say about starting all over, over again. from where? what do you say about violence to the mind? what do you say?

I would say don't let ur past ruin ur future.Its already succeeded in hurting ur past but ur future is urs to rewrite with a new storyline. No matter how rocky the climb is to the top where happiness and tears of joy are, pls don't stop believing cos u will b touched by good things. Never loose faith after life has kicked, spat and raped u of ur dreams. Pls keep ur eyes focused on the top, cos soon u will feel joy again. Stay hopeful!!!

I'd say life is a beauty queen! To have her, you gotta prove yourself worthy. You do that by paying the full price for her. Nothing less will do.
