Sometimes, life surprises you in the smallest moments.
I was rushing the other day, stressed and thinking about all I had to do, when I accidentally overheard a conversation between two strangers.
Before I even get back to that, there’s something I’ve dreamed about for years which is having my own little corner of the internet. A place that feels like home.
Somewhere I could pour out thoughts, reflections, stories, and lessons in a way that feels… well, personal.
I’ve fantasized about this website for as long as I can remember. Scribbling ideas into notebooks, typing drafts I never published, imagining what it could look like, and quietly wondering if anyone would ever care to read what I had to say.
Bringing this dream to life has been exciting, but it hasn’t been easy, no cap.
There were moments of doubt, times I questioned if I was ready, if I was consistent enough, if my voice was even necessary.
But a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do, especially one who knows there’s purpose attached to her voice.
So, you’re welcome!
This blog isn’t just a website. It’s a commitment to myself. To show up. To be vulnerable. To share my journey as it unfolds. My lessons from books, my quiet reflections on faith, creative thoughts, and the everyday moments that remind me life doesn’t always have to be loud to be meaningful.
Okay now, let’s go back to those strangers I overheard.
One of them said, “Even on the hard days, there’s a little light if you look for it.”
That sentence stopped my racing thoughts in their tracks!
Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be full of small blessings!
Sometimes the light isn’t dramatic or obvious. Sometimes, it’s hidden in ordinary conversations and the fleeting moments we almost miss when we’re in a hurry.
That’s exactly what I want this space to be.
A place to slow down.
Because ask yourself, where are you rushing to? Why are you in a hurry? Calm down, my darling.
I want this to be your reminder to notice the good, even when it feels small. It’s a place you can come at the end of your day and realise that light showed up maybe not how you expected, but it showed up all the same.
So here we are. My blog is officially live, and it’s ready to hold space for you.
Just know that If you ever need a place to breathe, this space is for you.
If you ever need a place to find light, this is your home.
Quickly find yourself a seat, feel at home but please don’t break any chair oo.
Welcome to the journey. Let’s find the light together.🥰
