Hello, and how are you faring? How was May?
Last week at Zahar foundation, a volunteer suggested therapy for all volunteers. It's the rose, thorn, and buds. Did I decide to give it a try here too, because why not?
Roses.
• I went to LASU yesterday and was lucky to meet Zoheeroh after 2 years of our first meeting. We had a nice time discussing life, growth, and academics. It was so good to hear Zoheeroh speak and smile at me again. Every bit of Zoheeroh is therapeutic. I also met Yemi, a very good friend, for the first time. I had a memorable experience. I couldn't stop grinning on my way home.
• This month, I said more CANs than CANTs. And gradually, I am glad to get rid of Impostors syndrome. Alhamdulillah. Many thanks, Adedoyin.
• I started my 42nd book for 2022 yesterday, finished my course and was certified for scientific research writing and publication, and have gotten some positive replies for submitted applications.
Thorns.
• I've been in Lagos for over a month now, but the power supply in my area hasn't improved a bit. I rely on the generator to charge my phone, and I am not finding it funny.
• In the past few weeks, I've had to type over 10k words within 48 hours, and it's been a traumatic experience doing that without a laptop plus the poor electric supply.
• I've been having a poor sleeping and eating pattern these days, and honestly, I can't explain why.
Buds.
• I am happy that I've been seeing positive changes concerning my spiritual growth and personal development. All the glory belongs to Allah.
• Even though all aren't working out as planned, I have chosen to always see the opportunity in every difficulty.
You can share your roses, thorns, and buds, too. I'll be glad to read and learn from them.
Shortly, I would tell you about 2 communities that have assisted in my personal development generously. You can check the membership criteria for each, and do the needful.
1. Bee Coven
It is a community whose mission is to build a mutual coven of responsible teenagers and its vision is to create a network of responsible teenagers who will help the underprivileged.
2. The digital weekend trybe
At the digital weekend trybe, values in form of ideas and awareness create possibilities that change reasoning and lives.
There are more details in the attached flier.
Welcome on board, and I hope you have a nice time journeying with us through the path of purpose and personal development.
To join, send a mail of interest to thedigitalweekendtrybe@gmail.com
Wishing you fulfillment and happiness in June, and the months to come.
