Today I went on a date with my younger self she was right on time I was a little late as I underestimated time to get there. I apologised and explained my driver took his time. I suppose he needed someone to vent too about his situation. I was happy to have been able to lend listening ear,she smiled and said I’m glad you still have not changed being kind to people is a good thing.She asked A spa date that is different. I told her I’m learning to Pour into my Cup so I can pour into others with good intentions. She looked at me as if to say pick me l have a burning question are you married she asked looking at my fingers I smiled and responded. No I’m not l responded with a smile.
So why are you smile so why are you smiling looking at me puzzled
I’m happy and at peace I stopped chasing the truck that was marriage a long time ago..l replied.I know when the time is right, God will make it happen .
So what is this glow that I see she asked ?.
Girl slow down today is about you and me and how far we have come.To answer your question all l can say is its the blood of Jesus and inner peace .
Girl girrrrl you can’t tell me there is no one (side eyeing me I suppose I have always had the side. I think I’ve got it from my mum )Well let’s just say I’m very happy where I am🥰
Ok so howz career going did you get degree ,are you working for Uni-liver managing one of the portfolios.
