And so Valentine’s Day has come and gone with all its funfair. The month of February is slowly

but surely, going by. As that famous tweet stated “… March will come superfast, so will Easter…

and then Christmas. Basically, 2018 is finished!”

Time is flying by so fast and soon we’ll be shouting ‘Merry Christmas’ once again and silently

wondering how we let another year go by without accomplishing those dreams of ours.

So this brings us to the big question – Where are we with regards to our dreams and aspirations

for the year and for our lives as a whole? Most of us set out years ago with amazing dreams but

sadly, as the years have gone by, a number of us have begun to ‘settle’ for smaller dreams

under the cloak of being more realistic when really, what we are doing is short changing

ourselves.

That’s why the #Reach4theStars challenge is so interesting and helpful. Introduced by a new

organisation called When Women Win (W.W.W.), they are challenging people to put up a

picture on social media holding the hashtag #Reach4TheStars and tell everyone your

commitments for 2018 i.e. what are you committing to in 2018 to achieve your goals and

dreams. Tag them and tag 10 of your friends to challenge them too!

The goal is to for you to commit to something and because you have made it public, you know

you need to stop procrastinating and make it happen. Many people have already taken the

challenge, you should too.

When Women Win is an organization that aims to create access for women to the knowledge,

inspiration and opportunities they need to win and succeed in life. The platform serves as an

enabler for women; helping them exhale, discover themselves, be inspired, motivated and

coached to become all they can be. When women win, the family units win, the society wins and

the Nation as a whole wins too!

The #Reach4theStars challenge fits W.W.W.’s objective of encouraging positive action by

individuals to improve themselves. Remember the words of Maya Angelou, “My mission in life is

not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some

humor, and some style.”

Choose to make a commitment today, this very minute, to dream again, to do better, and to BE

better. You owe it to yourself, after all, this is the ONLY life you’ll get to live. This is not a

rehearsal, this is IT. Reach for the Stars!

Those who wronged you may never say “I’m sorry” – Prudent Ludidi

Those who wronged you may never say “I’m sorry” – Prudent Ludidi

Ladies and gentlemen,

Today, I want to talk about something that can be difficult to accept, those who wronged you may never say “I’m sorry.”

We’ve all been hurt by someone at some point in our lives. And often, we hold onto that hurt, and hope in waiting for the person who wronged us to acknowledge their mistake and apologize.

But the truth is, that apology may never come.

It’s hard to accept because we feel like we deserve closure. We deserve to hear that the person who hurt us regrets their actions.

But closure is not something someone else gives you. Closure is something you give yourself.

You have the power to choose:

Choose to heal, even if they never acknowledge their wrongdoing
Choose to move forward, even if they never make amends

Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting what happened. Forgiveness means releasing the hold that person has on you.

Forgiveness means taking back control of your life.

You don’t need someone else’s apology to move on. You don’t need someone else’s validation to heal.

You are strong enough to do it on your own.

And when you do, you’ll find peace. You’ll find freedom.

Remember, holding onto anger and resentment only hurts you. It doesn’t change the past.

But forgiveness can change your future.

So, don’t wait for someone else to say “I’m sorry.” Say it to yourself: “I’m sorry that happened to me, but I’m moving forward.”

Say it loud and clear: “I deserve to heal. I deserve to be happy.”

Take back your power. Take back your life.

Move forward with courage and faith.

You got this.
