Hello everyone! You know that feeling you get when you have to say sorry over and over again, just because you keep falling into the same error? well, that's my fate right now. I'm tired of saying sorry here and disappearing still for months. I'm sure most of you have given up on me... please don't. I really pray I don't have to give this speech again, I'm here now with plenty gist as well.
I've been really busy partly because, yours truly went back to school (courtesy my beloved). It hasn't been easy on me at all. I had a couple of school mates during my undergraduate days who were mothers to children. Looking back now, I honestly have no idea how they managed that. One son for me, and it's been very challenging. Just rounded up my first semester exams and preparing for that exams with Jay was like carrying out a full blown research... Like discovering the source of a very deadly epidemic somewhere in Antarctica. I have never been so drained academically, emotionally and even physically! However, I learned something; God has created human beings heroes and went ahead to put super in front of the heroes for women. The problem we have is the problem of the soldier who doesn't go to war while his colleagues go or the athlete who just chills at home when he's supposed to be at the Olympics or the freedom fighter who crawls into his shell to avoid being arrested. The heroes in us gets as far as we let it. The soldier who is adjudged an hero fought a battle, if he didn't he wouldn't win.
Once you rise up to any challenge, that hero just rises along with you. I am one person you can categorically say hates stress, I really wondered how I was going to cope but my husband gave more than enough reasons why I should give it a try and now, slowly but surely it's becoming a reality. Please share your coping mechanisms as a student mum, if you are one, you might just be saving someone.
