From Gossip Circles To Growth Circles// LOH Contest #287.

Hello my lovely people, how is the new month going for you all? I wish you guys all the best and for this week's prompt I would be going with the first topic which says: what was is that you clung to tightly either an ideal, a person or a stage of life that life forced you to let go of? What was the emotional process of accepting that it was no longer part of your present?

So I would like to go with that stage of life. That stage of life that I clung to was and is still my best and sweetest part of my life so far, you know that stage where you have nothing to worry about, that stage where all your headaches are just for coming back to wash your school uniform or doing your assignment or even having a quarrel with your friends or boyfriend, that stage where you just want to go out and do all the yawo in the whole wide world and leave your mother in the kitchen to do the chores, that stage where you have all those high school boys tripping and falling heads over heels in love with you, that stage where you are in competition with your friends on how many movies you have watched or how many story books you have read, that stage where your own is to just cook, eat, play and gossip with your peers.

Yess that's the stage that i clung to and struggled to let go, infact I was so much consumed in that stage that I grew up and still had that childish, carefree/careless and playful plus my childish face complimented the whole thing, if you had met the before me you would agree with me that I haven't Sha seen life, and then that self of mine blocked alot of things like good connections, reasonable friends, a responsible me and lots more but when life happened to me in a very hard way according to my perspective, I had to let go.

I think letting isn't just the problem here but having to live without what you have been used to living with before, it's more like reality dawning on you even when you refuse to accept it. You know that situation where you lost someone very close to you, you have being crying and all of that but to you, you are just waiting for a situation where you expect them to tell you it's a prank or that the person rose up to live but then when you get to see that person lying down in a coffin about to be laid six feet down, it's then you would realize that it's real.

We never pray for days like that but we can't just do without it because sometimes it's just our pushing force to growth. This is my que to leave so do have a lovely day ahead.
