A Post-Mother’s Day Reflection: Love, Gratitude & Compassion

By -

 




Mother’s Day has come and gone, but the love and appreciation for mothers should never fade. 🌸

For many, yesterday was a day of celebration—breakfast in bed, heartfelt cards, and sweet moments with loved ones. But for others, Mother’s Day was a painful reminder of loss, longing, or life’s unexpected paths. 💔

As I reflected on my own journey, I remember the years when I wasn’t sure if I wanted to be a mother. I thought I had everything I needed—freedom, ambition, and the ability to pour love into my nieces and nephews. But then, my son arrived, and everything changed. He filled a space in my heart I didn’t even know existed. Motherhood is not always easy, but it is a beautiful, life-changing journey that I cherish every day.

So, what’s next after Mother’s Day?

💖 Continue to celebrate yourself. Whether or not you received flowers or gifts, your role is invaluable. Every day, you show up, love, nurture, and give your best. That alone is worth celebrating.

🤲 Extend grace and compassion. Some women struggle with this day—those who have lost their mothers, those longing for children, or those who choose a different path. Let’s keep our hearts open to them beyond Mother’s Day.

🙏 Practice gratitude. Whether you are a mother, a mentor, or a caregiver, you have a role in shaping lives. Reflect on the impact you have and the blessings around you.

✨ Embrace your journey. Motherhood looks different for everyone. Some have partners; some do it alone. Some have biological children; others nurture in different ways. No path is better—each journey is unique and beautiful in its own right.

Happy Single Parents Day: A Tribute to Strength, Love & Resilience

  Today March 21 st 2025 is Single Parents Day , and as a proud single mother , I want to take a moment to honour every parent out there. You are showing up, pushing through, and giving your all—every single day. Single parenting is a journey filled with love, sacrifice, and an unmatched strength . It means being the comforter, provider, and protector , often juggling more than we ever thought possible. To the moms and dads doing it alone —I see you. To the ones working late nights and early mornings —I respect you. To the parents feeling exhausted but showing up anyway —you are amazing.                               I won’t lie—this path isn’t always easy. There are days when the weight of responsibility feels overwhelming , moments of loneliness, and times we wonder if we’re doing enough. But in those moments, we rise . Our children need to see the courage and strength needed in those moment...

What a Pause Taught Me About Grace, Growth, and Showing Up Again

Hi everyone, I trust everyone is embracing the summer and the brilliance of the sun’s brightness. Here in the UK, it’s hot and I am loving it. So, it’s been a while since I did a blog post, and if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, know this: life got real. Between starting a new job, pouring into motherhood, and recalibrating my vision, I hit pause on blogging. It wasn’t intentional, but as a solo parent, it meant I had to find ways to recharge. I might have paused on blogging, but not on purpose, and not on growth. However, today, I’m re-entering with fresh clarity and renewed grace. If you have had to pause on anything, I want you to know the following: 🌿 1. The Pause Wasn't Failure For me, I had to learn how to become a working mother. I had to learn how to appreciate the new working environment, work with people I have never met, remember who I am in that new environment and be a higher version of who I am. Learning to balance this new life was not easy. There ...

The Power of Forgiveness 💛

  There’s a saying: 👉 Holding onto unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. How often have you been hurt? I know I’ve been hurt more times than I can count —by loved ones, co-workers, and people I trusted. For years, I carried those grudges like a badge of honour . Then I read this scripture: 📖 Matthew 6:14-15 (NIV) – “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.” That verse changed everything. I don’t want to carry the burden of unforgiveness , and I don’t want it to rob me of joy. Forgiveness isn’t about them—it’s about you . How to Let Go & Forgive If you’re struggling with forgiveness, here are some steps that helped me: 1️⃣ Pray about it – Ask God to soften your heart. 2️⃣ Call their names to God – Even if it’s painful, release them in prayer. 3️⃣ Seek wise counsel – Talk to a mentor or past...
