Being in the lockdown, I have come to appreciate the stillness, something I am not used to. Life gets so busy and it’s like a monotonous routine. I almost felt like a hamster on a wheel. This period of rest has enabled me to slow down and appreciate the things I wouldn’t notice because of busyness such as the birds…

As some of you know I was made redundant and have been unemployed since July, I am writing this post to encourage you and especially myself while we are in this journey of transition together.

Dressed pretty with bandages that wrap my wounds and dead and broken dreams, People dread to unwrap these bandages fearing the mess and the unpleasant stench, They mourn the death and convinced its all over, Where no one else can see or can reach.
