Psalms of Olúwalónimí

Like, it is what it is... emotional and therefore conditional, It's based on qualities we adore in the other person Or qualities that suits our person.  Sometimes, even qualities that makes excuses for or indulge our excesses.  In all, Like, though not deliberate, can be strong and potent.  Now, it can be fleeting,  It's the reason why you like them a lot today and not so much tomorrow, because they aren't so much of those things we like at the moment, or they have evolved all together. That's the problem with like. Not to say it's not beautiful  But what do you do when they are not so much what you like at the beginning,  It's simple, have who they are at every moment, if you can, cos really all things are yours!!! People can give you 10 today and 2 tomorrow, take all, it's a privilege, except of course it's toxic. Love on the other hand, is consistent, patient, grounded, suffers long, like Jesus dying to take away our sins.  Stays true in and out of ...

Sight, one hell of a resource. Like that one time, when I thought i was madly in love, lol All it took was a vision, then I saw what I was loving was all in my head, a figment I had created.  People ask me till date, "how could you say you don't feel the same way anymore?" some even dare say I'm not being honest  But what can I say? Now, I see.  I also see how the situation is confusing, I mean dropping the whole idea like it's hot, right after acting like my life depended on it. See, there's no better way to explain. I just see. I don't loathe him. Hell no! How could I? He's such an amazing person, but I'm no longer in a bubble. Sight makes you speak head high, where you once rambled. It disarms sentiment You could think people don't get you,  I say wait and see. Lol Sight, it humbles emotions.  Put things in perspective  Not that you wouldn't feel, but you feel with understanding  Oh! To see! How sweet.  You might think or wonder why the ...

Feeling so weary and broken I feel like I'm in a hole... Buried Pressed on all sides Tired! Literally The debt is overwhelming And so are my emotions  I can't keep up  One minute I'm angry And then I really don't think I should be And then I feel Iike a fool Like I've been played  But is that really so? You told me you wouldn't put me to shame.  Told me to not see the debt as another's but mine.  This way, it'd be easier to bear. These words I've hung on to Tbh, some days are easier than others On some days, I absolutely trust Other days I can't help but feel like a fool I mean how did sth that was literally me helping out turn into my debt? Empty promises upon empty promises  I just want to scream sometimes....  The weight of guilt From betraying family From watching mom cry Getting blocked and questioned Feeling betrayed even though I shouldn't...  I honestly cannot keep up with my emotions My heart is weary But I choose to trust you.  I ch...

It's safe to say life is all about finding balance. First in every facet, then in the whole. Balance in how we learn In how we teach In how we react In how we process our thoughts and emotions  In how we give ourselves to people and viceversa...  Balance, without a doubt, is key.  ... but balance can make one come off as hyprocrite, speaking from two ends of one's mouth... Like which side exactly is one on? Are you for or against? Balance teaches that we don't necessarily have to be for or against, two things can be right.  Balance or hypocrisy? You tell someone that the far right of a matter is not the best position for them, but so is the far left, what then should they do? Test all things, the Bible says, and hold on to that which is true. Have you heard of the 'standard of truth'? It's not necessarily right or left, it's transcedent.  It's the standard of God-how he sees things. It's how things truly are and ought to be.  It's how we should s...
