Drop the pride and ask!!!



So I'm the kind of person that actually has a free mind, I'ld tell you how I feel straight up without hiding and yes if I tell someone else what you did to me I don't see it as snitching because I can tell you the same thing infront of you without changing anything.
Also I have this problem lol I love to "read meaning to things" .. Though it's good sometimes but sometimes it's extremely bad.

So I have this friend. She's very very free, she's my only friend I've never fought with. She doesn't care about many things and she's very accommodating. So she was meant to help me do something but I kind of started pressurizing her to help me do it immediately and she started putting up one very nasty attitude and like I said I read meaning to things so me I just made up my mind that if I ask her again and she gives me attitude, that's it, I was very surprised because she's not like that but I couldn't bare the attitude. 
Fortunately for me, the next week was my birthday then my book launch so I just cut the whole convo because she was really giving me a very bad atitude, only for me to see her call on my birthday .. I was shocked. We spoke but I wasn't that free. My book launch came, she didn't come and she didn't bother to apologize for not coming. 
From then me I just made up my mind that I'm not going to disturb anybody mehn, too many people are even dying to be your friend so what's the use of stressing over one person? 
Over 2 months and we both didn't talk, I felt extremely bothered. I have a thick skin but I'm also very emotional and I easily listen to sorry. I decided to message her today.. As a writer I sent a longggg message lol! 
She then called and the first thing she said was "Dami I didn't even know u would pick my call but I'm very sorry"..
Me that I was angry I just said okay no problem then she explained why she did like that. This life people are going through many things o, let's not just ignore our friends because they are doing somehow, please still check back. She has been so depressed and sad so I just had to talk to her about it .. Very emotional conversation. 

I just learnt that sometimes pride is not good, I had pride that's why I was saying I wouldn't talk to her after the atitude but she was going through a very tough phase, I just thank God I contacted her and I could help her resolve it a little. 
Let's keep praying for our friends. We don't know what anyone is going through. May God keep helping us.
With love - DamStar ❤️

Finally! - Am A Writer & Author

i came back from school (America) December 2014 hoping to go back as soon as possible but my dad had another plan for me. He wanted me to transfer schools. Different things happened. I had the longest holiday from school in 2015, it wasn't easy for me too many things happened at once but then God doesn't just delay you for no reason, this particular holiday am talking about Birthed "ONCE UPON A TIME"..  I was bored, nothing to do, then I picked up my laptop and started typing. I am grateful to God for making this my dream a reality. From the onset my dad supported me and my mum was my backbone, my siblings would read the story over and over again and say "Sister Damilola you tried".. I never knew I would write a book but I always knew I loved to write, and I had intention of writing scripts and probably sell or give out but i never knew I would do this, right now i have about 3 short stories i have written almost like once upon a time. i had a tough...

Appreciate Yourself !!! - (My random experience)

I am someone that complains so much mostly about myself, i act like am very strong but not really, some times i still wish for some unbelievable things. my hair is the hardest part of my body. it becomes so tiring at times when i try to comb it and its stupidly hard, if i relax/perm it, it only last soft for like 2-3 days, i cant pack it and it wouldnt puff out, if i put cream like this,it shinessss so much more than normal. i look at my friends and wish to have their soft hair. my hair is very long (well - boarding house) cut everything, very full and super Black! when hair dressers are making my hair they say its like attachment lol, when i was in high school, the hair dresser would collect more for my hair than others, if i make corn-row/weaving to school, in 3 days everything has removed, the under growth would be coming out,it would just be so rough. The same with the hair on my body. My legs/arms ... they grow so fast, i have so shave like every month or 2-3 weeks...

Human beings are different!

The break down of  "Accepting people for who they are".. It's a vice versa thing! Happy December everyone!!! A few more days to new year, God has been amazing this year. Next year would be better IJN.  A little over 20 years of my life, I've learnt that one of the hardest thing to do is "Accepting people for who they are" ..  I've lived with people and I've had different types of friends and many times adjusting to someone's lifestyle would just be hard for you because you either love them but can't cope with their lifestyle or you love them and don't wanna lose them.  I have many people around that just piss me off daily because of how they behave but would I send everyone away? No. You have to help somepeople change too. I've learnt in a very hard way to accept people for who they are but that's only when they accept me for who I am too and that means you wouldn't do things I don't like and I wouldn't ...
