THE C & C OF Y.O.L.O


 

Y - You
O - Only
L - Live
O - Once

Hello world, welcome to my plug. AGAIN! I hope you're all good. I've been wanting to write this particular post for a long time and I feel today is the perfect day. First of all, this post is dedicated to a beautiful soul. He's gone but will never be forgotten. Wheeeeew. I can't afford to cry right now. Let's get right into what I have for your today.

The C and C about Y.O.LO means the Contradiction and Controversy surrounding the term; YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. I believe the term is contradictory due to the way people perceive it. Some people choose to chill, play, relax and not take life seriously because they believe YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE and so they would not waste time being all serious. Others also choose to be real serious that they don't even allocate any time for rest, celebration or play because they don't see why one should chill when they only get to live once. You would all attest to the fact that both sides exist in our world today. This contradiction naturally leads to a controversy where people argue about how people should live their lives.

Personally, I wouldn't opt for anyone to be dead serious through out their whole life. Who does that? I would also not encourage others to play around and live their lives with no vision and no plans to make it in life. I just want it to be balanced. "All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy. All play and no work, makes jack a lazy boy." I think this saying says it all. And if you don't want it to be balanced, at least work hard and play a little. For me, I work hard and so I don't reject any opportunity for enjoyment. Oh yes! I work hard, why can't I party hard? Everything is balanced. That way when I die, I will know that I made sure to accomplish something and in the process, I celebrated all the best things that life gave me.

We ought to live life to the fullest hunny! If you are working and you are tired, rest. If you were able to achieve an aim you set, celebrate your hardwork. Live life! There's no time for you to cry over things that you know it wouldn't happen. If you get hit ten times, get up eleven times because hey, YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. It's been years since you've been dwelling in the past, sister forget it, live with us in the present and work towards your future because YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. Do all you are supposed to do, Love GOD and be committed to your religion, make it a priority to always be a better person than you were before and enjoy when you can.

Live life with no regrets because Y.O.L.O (YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE)
RIP SHACE❤. I deem it privileged to have been your friend and I'm missing you baaaad. May we meet again!
Have a blissful weekend Fam. Let's meet next week Friday.

Love❤,
Angel.

5 THINGS I WOULD BRING TO A DESERTED ISLAND

Image
  My dream come true.  Time alone. To live in peace, to read a book without interruption, to enjoy a snack out of hiding. So I would be lying if I said there weren’t times I just got lost. Maybe on the way home. Maybe in a store. And sometimes – sometimes, I’d like to get lost on a deserted island far, far away from the hustle, bustle, and most people's demands of every day life. Of course, I love the life I live. Don’t get me wrong. But it can be, well, overwhelming at times.  I'm needed all the time.  There are no breaks, especially as a freelancer. So to say I need a break is an understatement. So follow me on this dream for a moment, would you? If I could take a little vacation to a deserted island where NO ONE could bother me and there were no to-do lists, I’d pack a few necessities. Since I’m just going to assume there are no demands, no requirements of me to figure out how to stay alive (because, let’s face it, that’s another responsibility and we’re avoiding

TOP 5 ADVICES I HAVE EVER BEEN GIVEN. (THE BEST)

Image
  Advices are one of my tools for motivation. Whenever someone spends his or her precious time to advice me, I do my best to listen because giving an advice isn't easy. All my life, I have received tons of advices that I can't remember and so the ones I'm sharing are the ones I remember and somehow held on to. Without further ado, here are my top 5 advices I have ever been given. 5. Opportunities abound everywhere, You only need to see them. - Tough Call Tough Call is a novel which was given to us in high School. My school has this extracurricular program called Functional literature. All students are given a novel to read and later get tested to prove whether the book was read or not. In summary and if my memory serves me right, the book was about how a young girl worked hard to be successful despite her enormous challenges. I got this advice from the book and I held on to it since then. For real, there are a lot of opportunities around us and until we open our eyes

A DAY I WILL NEVER FORGET

Image
 There has been a lot of defining moments in my life. To be brutally honest, a lot of those moments I would have rather not happened. But they have played a huge part in who I am today, and I strongly believe that despite how hard they may have been, everything does happen for a reason. I've been through some shit. 99% of that shit I do not and will not ever (well, we'll see) post online, as it is private and too difficult to share so openly. I felt like this about what I am going to talk about today for a good portion of time. 2 years ago on August 16, I was denied of entering a university I have applied for. I feel shaky and tingly and sad writing that. I can talk pretty candidly about a lot of hard things in my life, to my friends or family. However, whenever I try to talk about this, or write about it in this case, I get choked up. It's strange. I only really realise how much that day actually affected me when I think about it for long enough. I guess that is beca
