I was speaking with a close friend of mine last night and something she said caught my attention. “The thing that is hard for you to do. That very thing that makes you feel uncomfortable just by thinking about it is what will change you and mould you into a better person”. I can honestly say that this is true. For me to get to where I am today I had to confide in a trusted person about past traumas, seek forgiveness from those I had wronged and even those who had wronged me. I had to open myself up and confess things I had done or said as well as go against my own negative way of thinking. It was not easy, not at all. Just thinking about it made me so uncomfortable and many times I would avoid such things until I realised I was only hurting myself and blocking my own growth.
Even now they are some things that God has shown me I need to do to become a better person and though it is completely out of my comfort zone, as I do them, I know they will change me , my situation and those around me.
These is true this exactly has been my struggle since my journey with sisterhood began I always thought I was an open person but I have learned that I hate exposing myself but anyway am doing it and am seeing myself overcoming specially situations that were oppressing me for a long time.
