Ori wo ibi regbe mi si
"Head take me to a higher place"
I have said those words nearly everyday in my morning prayers for the past year. I didn't realize how powerful they were.
As I look at where I was a year ago & where I am now, it is truly miraculous. Finally, I'm seeing things take shape in my life, just at the time when I was ready to give up. Just a month ago, I was driving to another ridiculous call, asking for the umpteeth time when will I be allowed to move on & then I thought, "What's the point? I'll just stop asking." And I did. The next ridiculous call, I didn't ask, I just went. And then, the next thing I know, the breakthrough I had waited for came through, out of the blue. And then, shortly after that, the next breakthrough came through so that now I am on track to get my license & finally control my schedule (which is all I'm asking for).
Another reminder that someone really is listening & taking note & cares about my happiness. Not just what's good for me. But MY HAPPINESS.
On another note, Daddy is really sick. I may lose him soon. Who would have thought that he would be the first parent to go. My mother didn't. But I feel if he goes, she'll go soon after. What will it be like to be without them?
