Hello! Welcome!! Thanks for stopping by!!!
In today’s post, I continue the Dear Bunmi series. It is a series that addresses myself at various stages of my life in retrospect. The aim of this series is to encourage people going through similar issues and phases. It is a reminder that tough times don’t last. It is not over until it is good! You either win or learn!
Dear Bunmi,
You made a tough yet necessary decision, after almost two years you decided to call it quits with your first. You couldn’t explain it but you reached a breaking point; you got tired of the confusion – the emotional turmoil. It just didn’t feel right and you needed to get out for the sake of your sanity. It hurt you when his calls and pleas for you to reconsider your decision wouldn’t stop; calls from his family and friends didn’t make it any better then he shows up at your doorstep and you had to be a tough cookie, it was so not like you but you had to do it. I am proud of you.
Something happened to you, you’re still trying to figure it out but deep down you know that you couldn’t continue living your life in that mess. The guilt was unbearable and your dissatisfaction was overbearing. You wanted love without the drama; love without the burdens; love without the baggage; love without fear; love without shame, guilt, disappointments and internal dilemma. True love is all that and more!
This all started when you started to attend that new church with your cousin. You have been to church all your life but this was different. The people were like a different breed, they looked truly happy and free. What captured your heart was how the young adults were actively involved in church, you saw yourself in them. And even in the midst of trying to figure this thing called life out, deep down within you know that this is where you’re supposed to be.
Oh that faithful Sunday when you heard love’s voice, it was surreal – powerful yet peaceful; alarming yet reassuring. “ABSTINENCE!” You looked around to determine the source of the loud voice that you heard while everyone else continued business as usual. And then it hit you, you’ve been praying for confirmation about your decision, here it was! God actually spoke to you, you made the right decision! A random call from your aunt went on to further nail it on the head “Bunmi, you can’t do what everyone else is doing”; it hit you, God was mindful of you, and for some reason he wanted to keep you to himself. You wondered why he even cared, according to your books you messed up and it was too late. But you couldn’t fight the beckoning of true love, it felt too good to resist so you called out to him in desperation and he welcomed you with opened arms!
This is the beginning of the best times of your life!!!

If you can relate to the things written above, I want you to know that I understand how you feel. It is okay, don’t feel bad. It is okay to be at that point now, but you don’t have to stay there. Confusion, doubt, shame, and depression do not have to be your companions; they’re the worse company to have. Breakup with those emotions and choose to be happy and free. You have the power to create the type of life that you’ve always desired. That power becomes activated when you make the decision to come into the right relationship with the right person.
