Singlehood Victories

By Demilade Olafisoye

It may have happened that you finally got over a breakup or annoying situationship.

You had finally slayed your dragons by securing the reins of your heart, and finally overcoming toxic love choices — but not too long after, your emotions go in reverse and you now feel like a hot mess.

You’re wondering why that heroic feeling does not stay longer. Why you have to fight to rise to the surface of your doubts and fears again. You’re not alone in thinking this.

Sometimes, even heroes forget who they are. They shrink back and get lost in their doubts. They mess up. They ugly cry and feel that they are not good enough too.

But here’s what I want you to do — in those post-victory slumps where your wins seem small and you feel like you’ll never get it right, feel content in life, or that love will never find you — call one, no, two of your closest companions and tell them to recite to you how deserving of love you are — again.

Let them wash your head in the river of God’s acceptance and sibe-sibe (unconditional) love.

As they tell you these, you will remember, darling, and the confusion will lift.

In those moments.
