POEM: I’M ME. I’M NOT BORN TO IMPRESS OTHERS

I’m only me. That is all I can be. No more, no less, so don’t second guess.

I love, I wish, I laugh. Some days I’m funny, others I’m not

I’ve been frustrated so much that I’ve wished sometimes that I could die.

Sometimes I’m in overdrive and I can’t stop and sometimes

I’m as slow and steady as a snail.

You may not like me but that’s okay because that’s me and how I will stay

So don’t expect that I’ll one day change for you.

I’m only me so what you think of me doesn’t matter

The only person I’m oblige to please is God my creator

I may be weird and be a talkative, but it shouldn’t bother you

It is who I’m and how I’m created so no need to impress you

I do what I love and love what I do. Your opinion isn’t needed

You either accept me the way I’m or excuse me and go your way

After all I wasn’t born to impress anyone but myself and God.

I’m only me so I don’t care about Criticisers or critics

I’m happy to be me. I may not be perfect but I’m at least honest

I might not be the best but I do my things differently from the rest

I never try to be anything I’m not so I don’t need creating false impression

If at all I need to impress people, it’s by my accomplishments and not my possessions

Because to me, impressing people is a valuable waste of time, energy and effort

So please take me as I’m or leave and let me be...........

Inspirational: #In Your Best Interest

You've always had the flair for writing, for literature, for books, for arts. You are a very brilliant person so naturally you can survive in any class you find yourself - arts, social sciences or pure sciences. Your parents have always being proud of you cause you've always blazed the trail. What parents wouldn't be proud??? In primary school, you were the best student and that saw you going for every competition and winning medals upon medals. When it was time for the "standard living" play, the doctor spot was reserved for you. "Doctors are the smartest people in the world so you are the most suitable for the spot" your teacher had told your mom. Senior secondary school saw you sashaying effortlessly into the pure science classes, you are a natural, just like Einstein. you made A's with so much swags and ease.

2016 Review: Ikpefua Joy, My Year Review

2016 Review: Ikpefua Joy, My Year Review Hmmm...Don't even know where and how to start from. 2016 has been quite a year. 2016 to me has been one of those years I enjoyed unmerited favour and grace. God has been faithful despite my unfaithfulness. Yea, I was written off...I have been trodden upon and yes, I've been told to my face that I cannot attain the heights I'm striving so hard to attain because I don't have what it takes...and sometimes I'd believed that. Obvious challenges has stared at my face that threatened my resolutions and determinations but it is amazing that amidst it, God has always proved His Supremacy and rulership over my life. 2016 has taught me a lot. So many lessons that miraculously turned to blessings. I've met people who have impacted and invested in my life more than I could have ever done. And seriously, Allyreads has been a tangible blessing to me. Belonging to this family, is a treasure that I hold so dear...love them all.. Who ...
