Me finally achieving a handstand while the sun rises.

-CALIFLY, Circa 2023.

I am writing this on December 31st,2023 in my room in my parent’s home. My legs are sore after having a training session with Yasmine who came all the way from Nigeria. No pain no Gain I guess.

I want to reflect on the year and psyche my mind to get ready for the new year.

It has been an eventful year filled with good times and sad moments.

There have been unspeakable scenes as well as occasions filled with joyous and genuine fun.

All in all, I pray Saiko808 and the White Lion soul and spirit are resting peacefully in the bosom of the Lord.

How far did I go with my resolutions for the year?

I know I didn’t tick everything off my list. I can try harder because I’ve come to understand that there is no beating myself up over the past. I can only regroup, reassess and resolve. Just because it seems to be delayed doesn’t mean it has been denied. All I got is time so I’m still going to take advantage to live my fullest. Cheers to living the life and living the dream!

To live my best I’ve come to also realize that I need to Nourish my body with healthy choices. Some habits are hard to kill but it is necessary to make hard decisions to live healthily. From smoking to drinking alcohol to watching porn. All these are unhealthy choices which must be stopped.

It’ll be hard because it might seem to take away my moments of joy and instant gratification not indulging in these unhealthy choices but the truth is starving these distractions and feeding on the focus while pouring the soul into all endeavors can uplift my being into highest dimensions.

It isn’t a matter of just thinking it. I have to act on it without settling for less than I deserve.

Nonetheless, I am less expecting and more accepting and I’m giving grace to forgive myself daily.

Let go as a form of empowerment!

I am Practicing gratitude daily and Investing in relationships that uplift me.

I’m also learning to Ask for help when needed. I cannot do it alone as many hands make light work. Trying to rely on on myself without learning how to delegate job can be strenuous to one’s Health. I believe it is a learning process so I can only live and learn.

I wish to Enjoy the ebbs and flows of the human experience while harnessing my fullest potential. And Perhaps in the end, I can Give back to my community.

That’s a resolution endorsed with my willpower.

I’m eager to experience more of my being. I have goals I want to smash and I have dreams that are going to be fulfilled.

I pray I’m blessed with good health and more life as I navigate the blessings along the way. It can only get better from here.

Forever love
