How do I treat someone who hurt me?

It was 6am. Her alarm rang. My eyes opened, though it clearly was shut. She has her own room, why is she here? A quick flashback; oh, her fan spoilt. She can't afford to sleep in that heat,  so, she came to mine. She gets up; I wonder how she could tell I was awake, because  she whispered 'Yimi, I'm going to my room. Come lock the door'. Sleepily, I got up. As she stepped out, I twisted the knob but, on my way back to my bed, I noticed something. There was a mattress on the floor, and instead of my roommate sleeping on her bed, there was another girl. The one who just left got up from the mattress on the floor, but my roommate was still sleeping on the mattress.   Again, another flashback. I remembered I slept with the friend on the bed sleeping on my roommate's bed. The roommate asked me before I travelled into the land of dreams if it was okay to wake her up so she could go to her room. With my roommate on the floor, she sure did not. I assumed the matt...

The Hill.

I am tired, Stuck, Helpless, Almost hopeless, So then I look up, And it makes sense, Right there is where my help comes from. Psalm 121:1-2 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made the heaven and earth"

Sometimes, it's just not your time, Sometimes, it's just not your house, Sometimes, he's just not your man, Sometimes, she's just not your girl, Sometimes, it's just not your job. Sometimes, it's just not yours! Stop trying too hard, Be patient and understand what God is saying, Hold on dear, Hold on.

Will.

Be lazy no more. Work. Allow yourself to be used.

Fear.

Do not let anything hold you back. You are strong! Say it; I am strong. Now, act like it.

I hope.

I shouldn't feel this way, but I do. 😩😩😭😭 When relationships fail, we sometimes get bitter. But really, it shouldn't be that way. I understand you, and, I hope you find the strength to look past the pain, and experience real love.

Worry don't help nobody!

Pay no attention to it. Don't allow it become more powerful than you darling.

Light.

The mere human mind can't comprehend your light. You are the light of the world.

I'm sorry, Dentist.

I used to have a dental problem back in high school. I went to the dentist, and he gave me a couple of medications and instructed that I use salt and warm water solution to rinse my mouth everyday for a week at least 6 times.   The pain was much and I realized that after using the solution, I felt some relief.  So, I used this solution quite often, perhaps even more than 6 times. The pain reduced till it finally seized on the third day,  so I ignored the doctor's advice of using the solution for a week. The pain returned sometime before my convocation ceremony. Of course, I went to the dentist again.  After medications, he recommended that I use the salt and warm water solution again. In pain, I used it religiously for 3 days,  but on the fourth day, I stopped since I had relief. Before going to bed some days after,  I was brushing my teeth and the Holy Spirit said to me ‘You this girl,  you've stopped using the solution again’. Honestl...

My keyboard.

My sweet therapy, My keyboard, How I enjoy your presence, Precisely, how you accommodate me,  happily.  Regardless of how I whine, I wonder if my noise makes you want to break apart, And perhaps,  hinder me from ever coming in contact with you, But, on second thought I think you love me, As I, admist no one willing to acknowledge your importance has accredited you, I believe you must be glued to me, For when you have only but a few listening to you, You value their mere presence.
