Alayode's Memoirs

Do you get so overwhelmed? That all you want to do Is absolutely NOTHING  Oh dear!!! You are not alone.   I get there a lot.   I get to a point where I'm overwhelmed A point where all seems faded And all I wear is exhaustion Then I tell myself You are a strong woman  You can't stop now Keep pushing Keep striving But guess what???? I still don't want to do anything 🤦‍♀️ Then I take a break From everything and do nothing I breathe Love me some more Celebrate my wins And get some rest    I know it gets tough And it could get tougher  Also it gets easier 😊 While at it, Let's keep breathing and know you are loved You are not alone ❤️

The first time I was called 'a single married mother', I was like what is that?????? I thought about the title and cried after carefully analyzing the depth of that name.  A single married mother is a woman who is married and living with her husband but can as well be classified as a single mother because she does everything on her own and receives no assistance from her husband.  By saying everything, I mean financial, emotional, spiritual, mental, physical, sexual, and any other thing you can classify. Marriage is supposed to be a supportive partnership between two people that requires both parties to assist and support each other in achieving a common goal.  I can't wrap my head around how one partner feels happy seeing his other half going through so much pain and struggle in order to meet up with each day's needs.  How do you watch a woman age and be overwhelmed trying to make a home and you are looking like you just dropped out of a GQ Magazine? True love alway...
