Heaven-sent!!
You are the epitome of what a man is supposed to be.
You are my hero, my living legend.
It can not be easy, with all that you have borne
But unlike your weaker counterparts you have shown what commitment is.
Through thick and thin, through good and bad, through the tears and smiles,
You have stuck by.
You are truly an amazing man.
Heaven-sent.
Countless times have I told you im grateful?
But it can never be enough.
The strong woman I am today is all thanks to you.
God grant you countless more years so I can show my appreciation.
You have set a very high standard on my expectations
I pray that God created another, who matches you in character. One who is worthy to behold all you have bestowed upon my heart.
And all that’s rubbed off from your greatness.
Ababa- when they called you Peter they knew,
For you indeed are a ROCK!!
Solid and true.
Love you Daddy_
from a woman who will forever be your little girl.
There is a bit of crazy in all of us, that's what makes us human. Lets be crazy together!

Daddy Dearest.
Mental Me is a mental health blog that draws inspiration from my Mom who is Psychotic. Mental health issues have mainly been viewed as a taboo topic more-so in the African set up.
So this is my own way of venting, lest i go crazy. There is so much to talk about and i hope you will join me on my journey of reinvention.
There is nothing taboo about mental illness!
Im THANKFUL!
We went to the graveyard this week to bury a young child.
Surrounding us were graves of babies who had only "survived"-a day...a week...a year.
It made me so sad to realise how fleeting life is.
It is just but a wind,here one minute and gone the next.
It also made me so THANKFUL!!!
Thankful for the years God has kept me.
For the years he has blessed me with.
For the years i've spent with every member of my family.
For the friends i"ve had.
The ones who have come into my life for a reason...a season....or who have stuck by(or who will stick by)for a lifetime.
For the loves who have come into my life.
The ones who have made me smile,who have made my heart beat and my pulse quicken, who have brought tears to my eyes with joy and sadness.
Thankful for the one who broke my heart and not only made me stronger,but made me acknowledge that i also need JESUS in my relationships.
For the deep anguish and sorrow I've known in my life because it made me realise who God is in my life,that He alone is in control.
Thankful that i know now that without Him im lost.I'm thankful for Gods' awesome presence in my life.
Because now i can celebrate LIFE!
I can celebrate LIVING,not just surviving
Thank you God.
For what you have done so far.
For the hope for more love and joy.
For the belief in better days ahead.
For the celebration of my life,
Thank you!!!
