Want to share this with you. If anyone has ever told you to your face that you are disappointment, please shrug it off. I heard that over and over again and I asked myself how do I manage not to disappoint Aunty this, Uncle that, friend A and B?
That was one of my major struggle growing up. I had many people to look up to. Many whom God has decorated my life with. For the sake of growth, it got to a point I wanted my reality. My own ideas, my style, my voice etc. It was a major challenge to make that transition, but when I did, I fell out with many friends, guardians and even acquaintances.
You don't have to be rebellious, don't get me wrong. I had my share of that too, not too pleasant Pearl. You can start from a standpoint of choosing who you want to serve, God or the pleasures of this world. Don't be caught up with things that do not matter. Don't trade your personality and self esteem for emotions untold.
You can be your voice and make everyone proud of you. Don't be a waste, you are precious. That is why I call you Pearl.

Aunty nike dis is jst d truth but i av a questn.....in process of u tryin to be ur voice how do u manage pple such as parents etc who are nt really in support of dat voice of urs without being rebellious
Lola my Pearl, as much as you want to maintain some of your own ideas or voice, you establish the fact that you are making a good and worthy decision. E.g religion. You must understand the place of our parents. They are like our small gods. However, I have seen situations where it is difficult to carry them along, so I will opt for prayers if I were you. Consistently pray for them to agree with your terms. Truthfully, I never had parent to child relationship, so I'm giving my advice based on general rule or similar situations. God bless u dear.
