hey call You names for doing what your heart wants you to do,please keep doing it. Don’t join the world because you are tired of hearing friends who keep calling you ‘Church girl or Church boy’, ‘Joseph the dreamer’, Visioner, Builder of Castles in thin air’ and what have you. Your life is not determined by the feelings, pleasure, satisfaction or interest of other people.

In the words of Mary J Blidge ‘In each tear, there is a lesson, it makes you wiser than before’
