I'm a social worker, an only child and super religious girl

I want my own space

I want my own space. A place that i can call mine. A place i can make changes to at any time. A place i can access anytime with anyone. A place i can rent or sell.
I want to be free. Free from the shackles of another person’s jurisdiction! Free from landlords . No one should tell me what to and what not to do at a place i call home. Freedom, i yearn for ! Freedom. Freedom!

I pray that God blesses me with a stand of my own. Preferably one on the country side. One on which i can build a cute lil house. So lovely but simple. I’ll put a durawall around it or a fence . A long washing line and some concrete pathways. I’ll keep it clean and admirable. It should be a home i go to when I’m not working. A place where close family and friends can visit.

Rain beats the leopard’s spots but they don’t wash out..

Why should you risk getting a bad reputation when you know it will be hard to change. It will cost you more that just staying in the right lane. Be careful what you choose to do and when because people will be watching! Avoid the appearance of evil.

You may find yourself in the other boat , of people trying to change another person’s character. That is a job better described as impossible! You shouldn’t waste your energy trying to fix a person’s character, rather , help them to see better options to take not make it your ambition to do that for them, you’ll be disappointed.

I have seen people struggling to change their kids, partners, spouses, boyfriend and girlfriend, to no success. There are also lots of people who are living in regret, trying to mend their broken reputations but like trying to mend broken glass, it’s not working! Focus your energy on other things , these aren’t worth it.
