ADULTHOOD

Hmmmmmm Adulthood…... can you just imagine that long sigh? Well, nobody told me to prepare for this kind of adulthood. When we were much younger, I’m so certain majority of us anticipated being an adult just because of the freedom that comes with being a full-grown adult. But, this adulthood is not adulting, many of us are seeing SHEGE. I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way especially with the current state of our dear country, Nigeria. This phase of our life is where we are faced with various life challenges. One of the biggest challenges is definitely financial responsibility. Managing money, paying bills and saving for the future is super stressful. Many of us certainly weren’t told we would have to go through various heartbreaks in relationships, being with the wrong partner will also make you feel as if life is really unfair to you as an adult.

Adulthood will make you experience complicated relationships. Maintaining friendships, finding a partner, and building a family all comes with their own set of hurdles. There is also always this constant pressure to “have it all” (a successful career, a loving relationship, a perfect body etc.) which can be really overwhelming. But, the bitter truth is nobody can have it all!! You know personally, sometimes whenever I wake up in the morning, I just suddenly feel like going back to being a child where i don’t have to think about anything; but, this is my life now and i have to accept it no matter what!

That freedom I was once dreaming of no longer excites me, because I don’t look forward to going out of space anymore. Nothing Dey outside.

There are sometimes when you’ll feel like giving up, but, you have no choice than to keep pushing through so you won’t be left behind. There are also times when you feel like comparing yourself with others, but then you remember that not all fingers are equal, and you rather give thanks to GOD ALMIGHTY for the gift of LIFE.

When there is LIFE, there is HOPE. Adulthood will constantly make you question who you are, and trying to find your place in the world.

SO WHAT HAVE I COME TO REALIZE AS AN ADULT?

I have come to realize that, Adulthood is a journey of self-discovery. So, yeah, adulthood is full of challenges, but it is also a time of growth, learning, and new experiences.

GOD NO GO SHAME US.

LOVE AND LIGHT!!
