She was playing hide-and-seek with her brother and hid inside a refrigerator. The door locked, and her brother had no idea she was trapped inside. She tried to get out but couldnโt, so she started shaking it until her brother noticed and called the neighbors for help. Thatโs why her dad is flogging her here.
Dear @guzu_p.
I have thought about writing this for a while.
The day I saw your quote tweet, I was in meeting. Like most people would, I opened the notification to see what happened. I read your post and my first reaction was confusion.
I immediately started asking myself questions
โDid I do something wrong โ?
โHave I offended hime before โ?
I checked my timeline repeatedly, trying to understand what led to that moment, the more i search, the less I found. I couldnโt point to anything that justified the attention I was receiving.
But I remain silent.
Not because I didnโt see them.
I sat quietly and asked for Wisdom.
I keep asking myself, how do i respond,
Instead of joining the noise, I choose silence.
People who had never heard of me before suddenly knew my name.
People discovered my work.
People saw my craft.
People met the woman behind the brand.
As a shoemaker trying to build something meaningful, visibility is not something I take for granted. Many talented people work tirelessly everyday and never get seen.
Thank you for introducing my work to people who may never have come across my page otherwise.
Life has taught me that blessings do not always arrive wrapped the way we expect sometimes, they come disguise as challenges. Sometimes they come through unexpected people.
May we all continue to grow, learn and make room for wisdom in moment when emotions could easily take over.
With Gratitude.
Victory.
I always want to be surrounded by well meaning people and not pretenders. Thatโs why I stopped public giveaways. So no vex if I ignore your request for timeline.. weโre still family๐ค
