Mind over matter

Haven't I been diligent in updating my blog? Na una I dey ask ooooo

My sisters think I haven't :( , they want me to update every week. I understand what they are trying to say but most times I don't feel like it at alllllll. Some days I wake up and can't seem to find my left from my right and other days I want to write but.................those of you that blog understand what am talking about.

Right now I don't have a choice, I have to write cos my sitters sisters are holding 'koboko' and standing over me, I have always been afraid of being flogged right from when I was a child, the only way to shut me up or get me to behave was to threaten me with some good ass flogging.

Speaking of sisters, I love mine. I love my family. I remember when I was told that I was infected the first person I called was my dad (I am a daddy's girl). I have always been the mouth piece for my siblings where my dad is concerned. Once they need anything from the old guy they would send me and he NEVER refused my request I can count on one hand how many times he said no to me, if ever, don't know why he loved and still loves me so, I like to believe its cos I look like him (yea right.........says my sister) haba sis don't hate naaa.

When I fell sick in 2010 I thought the man could die before me. He was so broken, mum who has always been the soft and fragile one in the house turned out to be the pillar of rock during that trying time, she never shed a tear but dad cried like a baby. She showed such fortitude and endurance, her faith that I wouldn't be lost to this world was palpable and I drew from that.

I love my family. my sister put her life on hold for a year just to be by my side and nurse me back to my feet, being a doctor she was really there, did so many research to ensure I was on the right course of treatment and gave our family doctor a run for his money, the man tire for her sha ahhhh. I hated taking my drugs soooo much but she would say to me 'babes see ur pills as vitamin tablets, people take vitamins everyday, mind over matter'.

Mind over matter, mind over matter......................... simply means as a man thinks in his heart so is he, its the power of positive thinking, its the power of the mind to control and influence the physical body and physical world, its the process that has gotten me to this point. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I get in a funky mood, I want to rage and scream at the whole world (and God sometimes #baba no vex)but the words still come back to me, only the living have hope abi?

Mind over matter....................it can only get better, only better
