Weekend Hailings..... ********************** FRIDAY MEMO I greet you all… Who is there? What’s happening? How is everything going? Today, I decided to take a break from cooking because yesterday I forgot to eat at the right time and became really dizzy when I stepped out. I quickly bought something to eat, but I had already starved my body at the moment it needed food. I didn’t even take any liquids.
I will never try that again. Today, I’ll be having another meal in an hour to balance myself. Should I go and look for swallow? I would have loved peppersoup, but I don’t have the ingredients to make it. I remember ordering peppersoup once, and when the woman brought it, I screamed cos the water inside looked like gutter water. Lol. Enough of Stella’s tales… Enjoy your weekend and continue to spread love and light to anyone who crosses your path. #Goddondoamforme ************* Flowers for Positive Comments Sometimes, the internet feels like a battlefield, but every now and then, people drop comments that brighten the space.

He had good food and water with him. I remember seeing a big loaf of bread and a plate of pounded yam with melon soup, and I wondered where he got them from. Then it occurred to me that mentally ill people have families too. That thought took me back to when I was in 100 level. I travelled to Bayelsa State with my friend because I had been talking to her cousin, and we were getting along well.
I thought the trip would be a good opportunity for us to get to know each other better. The guy shared a three-bedroom apartment with his roommate. For the first few days, I would never have guessed that there was a mentally ill person living in that house. My boyfriend's roommate girlfriend usually comes and goes in the early mornings, but because I was staying in my boyfriend's room, and the room had everything I needed, I hardly came out.
I spent the total days of one week in Bayelsa and on the fifth day, I decided to step into the sitting room. I thought I was alone in the apartment. Then I saw an old woman, looking dirty and extremely tattered, crawling into another room. I was shocked. At that moment, my boyfriend's roommate's girlfriend came out of the kitchen carrying food. She opened the woman's door, and what I saw frightened me.
From that moment until my boyfriend returned from work, I was terrified. I couldn't even process what I had seen. When he finally returned, I told him what happened. He explained that the woman was his roommate's grandmother. She was mentally ill, and his roommate had made a promise never to allow her to end up on the streets. So he kept her at home, fed her and cared for her.
I was disappointed that my boyfriend hadn't told me earlier, and honestly, I ran away after spending a week there. However, the lesson here is that mentally ill people have loved ones too. Sometimes life happens. Sometimes people develop mental health conditions and become completely different from who they once were. But before that happened, they were someone's mother, father, grandmother, child, sibling, friend or spouse.
They were once healthy. They had dreams. They had people who loved them. And while caring for someone with severe mental illness can be incredibly difficult, I believe we should remember their humanity and dignity. They are still somebody's loved one. So you ended the relationship cos of that?LOL ***************** WAYS TO CALM YOURSELF WHEN life IS getting TOUGH… -. Spend quality time alone. -.
