I Know. Titles ,make us feel secure,trusted ,in control and they’re usually the things that bring credit to our existence. We work so hard to achieve them, we do years of training and competing , we invest all of our energy and sometimes hard earned money to obtain them,adding all of our natural jewels even the ones we loan to build this royal crown that you’re meant to wear for the rest of your life because that’s what gives us value. Our crowns, or as we know them, our titles. The work is in the title right? the knowledge is in it too, the experience…the strength and sometimes our weaknesses are all interlinked to our titles. This is evident in society…when the title is inferior,the person is believed to be inadequate and their qualities are ineffective, until proven differently.

I really hope though, that we remember ,that our titles do not define us. That it is merely just a frame and we are always the picture,the picture that was always there. With all the colours you could imagine and all of the significance you could find. You are always the picture, you can always change your frame, you could share it with someone else, but that precious peerless, whole-heart and soulful picture is ALL YOU. So, the next time you decide to chase after a job or a label that you hope will bring respect to your name and add value to your life ,remember that you are ALL OF the treasure and ask yourself if it will give you anything, you don’t already have . You don’t need no title.

Getting back together

We’ve all been here before, where we set the tone for the endeavour that would follow. I met the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with , I invested everything I hoped I would receive in return and gave up the fleeting things just so I could have the world that was in her. Love was so deep in me I thought it would never leave home. But we were constantly at war. She, the unsatisfied one was constantly seeking approval and validation from outsiders , wanting to know if she had enough of what it would take to be valued . To be remembered , to be seen in a world of people who only viewed her, but never saw her for who she was. It wasn’t cheating unless she got caught, according to her. Flirting with temptation was just a test to prove how strong her love was, and how weak her desires were. “i can handle myself” is what she would say when the results were proven 100% positive in weakness. In failure . She failed, and she needed to get back to her lover’s tenderness, so she searched for her home and got lost along the way. Eventually after being dragged by her conscience, she arrived safe but not sound.She made her way to the door, that had been left open awaiting her return but…the house was vacant . She called out to her lover and no one answered .She checked all the rooms that were locked and only found one that had been open in a far corner of the house with no light entering, just a pure dark,cold and silent room, where her lover was waiting.

“I know that we’ve spent some time apart my love but God has shown his favour on this reunion” she said to her lover. In hopes that , the one who never left would find truth in such heavy words. Her lover, with teary eyes looked at her,took a deep breath and said the following:

You were always enough for me. I never chose you out of obligation. We share the same flaws, pain , concerns and deepest regrets , and still I never regret choosing to love you everyday. We must thank God for a life so challenging and chaotic ,because we will always go looking for peace no matter how far we are from it. My love, I’m not broken,although I have been shattered. I’ve longed for you and wept ,night after night not knowing how much you would lose ,but hoping your lacking would bring you back to me.We have endured the sickness and maybe death drew us apart or death gave us a restart but, I will take us to love and to hold. Forever and ever.
