In a relationship, both partners must contribute in whatever ways they can. Contribution is not always financial — it can be emotional support, care for the home, raising the children, or simply showing up with presence and effort.
Writings
By the desire to move and inspire, I write...
Being a parent comes with the responsibility of raising your children. But many parents caught up in their role, while forgetting they are lovers too.
When a man takes care of himself on every level, it’s simply called being an adult. So why is it that women in the same position often feel the need to announce themselves as “independent women”?
Society often reduces the idea of “provider” to money. Many believe that a man’s worth is measured only by how much he earns. But the truth is, provision goes far deeper than finances.
Adulthood is not simply measured by age. The legal system may set the bar at 18, but that number is more about convenience and control than true maturity. Age alone doesn’t make someone grown.
Most people spend more energy searching for a partner than they do discovering their true purpose. But if you don’t know who you are or what you are here to create, how can you recognize the soul that is meant to walk beside you?
We are living in an era where many people are shifting their energy away from constant conflict and toward building their own path — their “grind”.
If you truly want to understand relationships, you need to think in terms of frequency. Sometimes you meet someone and, even though the connection feels perfect in that moment, you eventually grow apart.
Many people think people-pleasers are simply kind and selfless, but beneath the surface lies a deeper truth: they are often validation seekers.
Don’t shrink yourself to make others around you feel comfortable. Never deny your truth and limit your purpose. You were never meant to conform to who you’re not, but to expand into who you truly are.
Sometimes a setback is just a detour to greatness. Like a divine redirection, gently guiding you away from what no longer serves you.
Soulmates are never drawn to desperation — they are drawn to alignment. Become what you seek, and you prepare yourself to receive what is already yours.
