You know, with the trials I had to face, if anyone had told me that I would see 2025, I would have called the person a blatant liar.<br \/>\nI remember in one of my most humbling reflections, I asked God, \u201cWhy me?\u201d and He replied, \u201cWhy not me?? You are one of my bravest soldiers, and I will not burden you with what I know you can\u2019t handle.&#8221; This reminded me that in our greatest times of testing and affliction, God is setting us up for the greatest display of His power and deliverance.<br \/>\nHowever, I digress. It\u2019s my birthday, and a new beginning has manifested. To everyone who held my hands, wiped my tears, and cried with me (yep, I have some very dramatic people in my life), I THANK YOU. I have such an amazing support system that I thank the Almighty God for every single day (well, most times when they are not being annoying. I digress again, sorry).<br \/>\nIn fact, my people did such an amazing job that I healed so well and practically found my old self again (I literally feel 21 again). Shey, you people didn\u2019t overdo it like this. <em>Eniyan l\u2019aso mi<\/em>, and my gratitude can never, ever be enough.<\/p>\n<p>I cannot forget my darling fierceglowers @moyolawalplus who have kept us in business despite no fancy store and our inadequacies.
