The difference time, medication & a healthy lifestyle (S/O to Apple Cider Vinegar yo!) has made on my skin. Pay close attention to the cause, be consistent with your solution and watch your skin flourish

All selfies without make up, from December 2014 when my skin went uncontrollably haywire to now, October 2015. Can’t believe it😩

3. Plan for the future - and work hard to succeed.

4. Practise being mindful and being present in “the now”.

5. Choose to be happy - despite life’s challenges.

Of course, you can play around with lengths and colours as you please and there are tons more ideas for protective styles you can find online but hopefully these visuals give you an idea or some inspiration. Hopefully this helped!

A few weeks ago an old follower sent me a lovely message on my photography blog to check on me and send me love since she noticed I had hidden my tumblr (and forgotten. lol, typical)

So posting here as I’ve unhidden it, because there are so many memories. And looking through my old posts encouraged me in my current tough season so I hope they encourage someone out there.

Sending love and know regardless, God is good. He is faithful. And He is love. You are worthy, He has a plan specific for your life and He loves you 💗

Only home's 30+ degree weather can make me relax like this! Throwback to a pre-MSc time. Ps: those long ass braids slept on one half of the bed & I slept on the other. Miss them. Fun times 🌝 . July 2015. Lagos, Nigeria

Day by day, decision by decision. Progressively, through His strength alone. By His Grace, through faith 💙 . When I'm frustrated or upset, I clench my jaw. This morning, I felt silly because here I was clenching my jaws while opening to Psalms 27 lol. So in my heart, I asked the Holy Spirit to lead me to read a passage in the Bible that will fill me with that love of reading The Word and lift my spirits. Reading Philippians 3:9-11 in the AMPC version blew my mind. It's like I've never seen this scripture before. This is why Paul is my guy, w o w.

Atm I'm home baking my dream birthday cake (lol trying to), surrounded by family and love-happiest birthday I could ask for. God is so so faithful and He's blessed me with another year to experience His faithfulness. My heart can't take the depth of His crazy love. . Grateful for life & growth. Grateful for love & loved ones. Grateful for wholeness in Christ. Here's to more growth this year and onwards 🎈🎊💕

I've decided today is Micely Appreciation day. This strong, intelligent, passionate and beautiful woman has been such a blessing during this past year. She's been by my side when I needed a shoulder to cry on about this (stupid🙄) MSc. She's been there to rush me to A&E while somehow making me laugh in the midst of pain. She never lets me leave her flat without eating so much good food and laughing till my belly hurts. We have thought-provoking conversations any chance we get. She gives me flowers on my way to the library just so I smile. I love you, Micely. Thank you for having one of the kindest hearts I've ever come to know. Here's to many more memories as we round up our Master's degrees. Here's to you touching lives simply by just being who God created you to be ❤
