Throwback Thursday!
This picture was taken from one of my *dates with Jesus* from two years ago. I literally had this stored somewhere in my gallery but, oh well. I remember that this was within the final days of October - I had just concluded university and decided to take myself out.
In this moment, like most people can guess, I was trying to decide what next after Uni and sincerely, it had to have been one of the most confusing moments of my life. Everybody was doing something and paving a way for themselves, but here I was battling insecurities and a fear of the unknown! (And I actually thought that I was the only one in this mind battle...)
On this particular date though, I just wanted to live and not contemplate the big question of, "WHAT NEXT?" I had taken a walk in the park, listened to the sound of the river flowing while watching the people go by. I just sat there basking in the sun and thanking God for the gift of life. It may sound like some sick sorry tale but at that moment, I really was at peace. This didn't happen every day and so; I definitely made the most of it.
A few weeks after this, the choice of being a social media manager became a solid thing, and I was groomed in the career. This self-taught process is what prepared me for the job which I later acquired in months to come as a Graphic designer and content curator with very little experience on work ethics.
Sometimes it's hard to decide what will happen next as you go through the different stages of life but trusting and appreciating God for what He has done, and is set to do, is what opens the door for more
The Moral - Keep trusting God & make it a goal to improve your self-worth. You are your own greatest asset!
P.S Story is dated back to 2022, had about 6 months of being self-taught (obviously with the help of and YouTube tutorials), got my first social media related job in May ending!
