INSIDE LIFE WITH GBEMI: BE YOURSELF

 BE YOURSELF



One of the many things my late dad taught me was to fall in love with my name. Like I practically love writing my names on everything that belongs to me and scribbling it even on desks. My mum still teases me about it. One thing I realized from this habit was that I am who I am, not anyone else. My name and identity belongs to me and I should proudly own it. This realization helped me overcome peer pressure growing up (apart from the fact that I was too lazy to indulge😄😄). 

I know owning up to yourself can be a little bit challenging especially living in a world where everyone is expected to make immediately, drive the latest cars, own the latest mansions, wear the latest designers fashion, use the latest phones and then upload them all on social media. However, not everyone will “blow” at the same time. 

The fact that you are not there yet doesn’t mean you won’t be there tomorrow. So, do your best, take a chill pill, relax, drink enough water and belt out Simi’s lyrics “Original baby, wherever you go be yourself, original bobo, ah you can never be somebody else, original baby, whatever you do you better be true, original bobo, oh no matter the pressure be yourself”.

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA The Spanish word for soul mate stands for "alma gemela". You know, I've always wondered. It has always had me bothered. That question. Simple as it may sound, it is a question that has troubled my mind relentlessly. How many soul mates do we get in a lifetime?  Have you ever met someone and out of the blue, y'all connect and a bond is forged? You spend moments together and moments turn into hours, hours into days, days into weeks and weeks into months and months into years, years into more years, you get the picture. Everything is fine is the beginning and then the misunderstandings begin and then you start to see how different y'all really are and then your three hours of calls become three minutes of awkwardness with so many words in your minds but none of them said. You then start to wonder, "was this really my soulmate or did I get it all wrong?" Are we even meant to be together? Eventually, you start to let eac...
