QUEENS ARE BORN IN FEBRUARY || HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

  So this day some years ago a queen was born! Funny story, my mum told me I was almost born on leap year which she didn't want so she prayed for early labor and I was safely born on the 27th, thankful for that. Imagine waiting every 4 years to celebrate my birthday.

 I’m indeed proud of the woman I am becoming, as I see my dreams coming together one at a time and I have faith (Jeremiah 29:11) it will only get better from here. Looking back I’m really grateful and thankful for everything that has happened in my life, the good and bad, for what has come into and what has gone out of my life; I believe everything has a season and a purpose. I know deep within me I’m not where I want to be right now but I’m glad I’m not where I used to be. 

Anyways, I wish myself everything good, pure x wonderful this life has to offer, success, health x wealth, wisdom, discernment, God’s abundant favor and peace of mind. I definitely can’t wait to see what other plans God has orchestrated for me. Excuse the rumpled gown; it got rumpled transporting myself to the picture location.

Once again A Big Happy Birthday to me 'Benita James'. Oh btw if you'd be eating cake today, eat it on my behalf.

Down below are 20 important things I’ve learnt/learning in my early 20’s

      1.      Constant progression is better than constant perfection.

                     2.      Strangers are more inclined to support you than friends. You’ve to go with the flow.

                    3.      Be financially disciplined (save more money) as nothing is set in stone. Invest your time and money wisely. 

                     4.     The tougher the lesson, the bigger the BLESSINGS!..

     5.      Take every chance in life because some things happen once/for a reason.

6.      Never judge someone by the opinion of another person.

            7.   Keep putting out good, it will come back to you tenfold in unexpected ways.

8.      Be unapologetically you, Do you and do what you love. 

 9.      This sounds cliché but Trust no one or rather pay attention to who you trust.

             10.      Be discreet in order to achieve what you want for everyone who is blessed is envied.

11.      Rely on no one but God. Without God we are nothing. God's timing is perfect.

          12.      Whatever you do, always think about the future (there could be repercussions)

13.      Forgive but never forget the lessons it taught you.

         14.      Don’t be ashamed to struggle to get what you want, nothing is handed freely.

15.      Never allow waiting be a habit. Live your dreams and take healthy risks.

                     16.      Be appreciative and thankful with the little you have someone somewhere has it a lot worse.

17.      There's a huge difference between a boy and a man.

18.      Pride wouldn’t take you far only humility will.

   19.      Sometimes the grass is greener over there because it’s fake.

                            20.      Finally, once you are in your 20’s you should not care how you’re being perceived by people. Trust me you will never be defeated by their actions or words, just ignore and keep building.

QOTD ‘A strong woman accepts both compliments and criticism graciously, knowing that it takes both sun and rain for a flower to grow.’
