Curtain Call

Wow! How time flies! Can you believe it? This is the last day of 2021. I just can’t believe it honestly.

I’ve been reading posts on social media and it seems this year has been challenging for a lot of us and I want to say congratulations to everyone who held on and kept pushing and believing for a better outcome.

To God Almighty, I say thank you. You and I know how hard this year was for me and my family but You have kept us and we’re thankful.

Now, to the recap. My, my, raise your hands if you had high expectations for the year. 🙋🏿‍♀️

Just like most of you, I had plans but most of these were not actualized. One of my goals this year was to re-register for my ACCA and also enrol in an MSc Finance program. I couldn’t re-register because of financial constraints and that saddens me greatly but we go again next year. As for the MSc, your girl gained admissions upon admissions but I couldn’t raise the money for the tuition so I missed all my registration deadlines and missed out on that goal.

All of this is actually recap of the end of this year. Let’s go back to the beginning where I was so depressed. I was on autopilot. I tried to appear okay for people but I was going through it. For months, I didn’t go to church. I didn’t want anything to do with God because I felt like He had abandoned my family and I.

I was very wrong. It took me a while to get to where I am and I’m thankful to my mom who never stopped praying for me.

This year, I went house hunting. I wanted to be a homeowner and stop the rent cycle we were facing that we could barely survive. That didn’t work out but we go again.

Nothing went as planned for me this year but I’m still here. I’m still alive and that alone is proof that God has more in store for me. I only have to believe and do my part.

God is still doing miracles and I pray that on this final day that He’ll give us a miracle. May each of you reading this review receive a last-minute miracle today.

Keep the faith! And you’ll reap the benefits.

It wasn’t a bad year because this year, I got my finances together !!! I made good financial decisions that I know if I stay on the path, I’d get to where I want to be.

I started writing for a financial magazine this year as well so congratulations to me! Check out Bethniel Financial Technology.

This year was hardly what I expected it to be but the lessons are life-changing and for that I’m grateful. I can see how far I’ve come as a person and that makes 2021 one of the good ones for me.

Thank you all for your support! Without you, Baawa Unfiltered would have been over.

Happy New Year’s Eve, fam!

Well done to us all for making the most out of what we had. We made lemonade with our lemons. Proud of us all. Celebrate your wins! It doesn’t matter how big or small you think it is. It’s still a win!
