A page in 23!
I was flipping through the pages.
“Where Praise is now is nothing compared to where she will be soon”
I’ve longed to be 23 since the age of 18. Why?
I believe it has to do with expectations and youthful fantasies.
I had certain life goals in mind, such as having a satisfying career, a little car, a million-dollar net worth, real estate, and a relationship that would last till 25 years before being married.
I believed 23 years old would be the PERFECT age for a girl.
I’m 23 years old presently, so none of that applies to me. Instead, I don’t work a traditional “9 to 5” job, I don’t drive, I live with my parents, I’m establishing a business, and I’m not in a relationship which might culminate in marriage.
Although I could be accomplishing more, I didn’t anticipate my life at this age to include helping people become responsible with money, possessing this many credentials as I do, and teaching the message of Jesus Christ in this capacity.
I also didn’t envision teaching young people about tech and about God, that I’m still alive (given everything I’ve been through) and numerous other things.
Even while I may not be exactly where I’d desire to be, I am nonetheless where God wants me to be. I have no misgivings at all. In fact, I’m delighted with the way my life is panning together- More valuable than any child’s fantasy are the experiences that led me here.
The irony of life is that there are people who would kill for my life- to have this moment.

So, this year…
I spire to be more adventurous, kiss my face to the sunlight, and be more daring in the upcoming year. I want to disrupt the established order and create innovative things. I want to establish a fresh baseline.
I dare to be different without fear of being judged.
I’m done being terrified and sitting on the bench, so I’ll venture outside.
I will speak for those who are unable to do so.
I’m not afraid to display my work and my full range of abilities.
I’m done giving in to fear, therefore I’ll practise patience going forward.
I will be patient with my reveal.
I will walk this walk and flip my hair when doing it.
When the storm comes, and oh yes it will- I will call on the one who specialises in calming the storm.
Salute to Big 23!
