Itβs been a year already since you last smashed
Itβs been a year since you were last seen at school
Itβs been a year since you were last hosted on TV
Itβs been a year since you moved out from our home
Itβs been a year since he passed on to be with the angels
Itβs been a year since I last saw this person
Itβs been a year since I closed down the shop and decided to concentrate on my academics
Itβs been a year since the district officials paid me a visit here at home
Itβs been a year since I lost my arm
Itβs been a year since I last listened to an Afro-Beat song
Itβs been a year since I graduated from college
Itβs been a year since I made up my mind to get married
Itβs been a year since I walked on the streets of Dar-es-Salaam
Itβs been a year since I last wore that dress
Itβs been a year since I last spoke to a police officer
Itβs been a year sinceβ¦.. yyeeaahhh yyyeeeaaahhhhhβ¦. That list goes on and on
It wonβt come to an end so easily

Look aroundβ¦.see how far youβve come since that time, last year, when A,B,C,D,E,F,G happened in your life
I guess at that moment in time, you felt helpless and out of options
Your life seemed worthless and you felt better off dead and off this earth
Or notβ¦.you could have felt pretty good, actually, now that this was all over

Strong ???
Thatβs just an understatement, when itβs just spoken out
When it gets lived out, every day, thatβs when you realize that you are more powerful than you know
Or that, we tell you that you are
Or more powerful than the world expects you to be

Good for you. I like hearing people who changed their life. It’s been a year since our constructor said our apartment will be done and we could move out. It’s been a year since I got married π I think those two are the only one that comes to my mind. I was a year full of waiting and saving money to make our apartment the way we want it.
Aaawwww…thank you, Cristina! I’m very glad to hear this. ?ββ€

Yes, we all have our limits and each of us is going through something no one else has any idea of. It’s always good to practice these tips to avoid a bad outcome.
Indeed, Denise! Thank you.
Time seems to pass by so quickly, doesn’t it? You’ll see as you get older that it just goes by faster and faster, too.
ππ yyyeeaaahhhh!
I love this post so much. Life passes by faster than we think. It’s important to make the most of it.
ππππΏππΏ
like always very powerful posts. I hope that it’s not just to read but to do and move forward with a goal.

This thought of yours makes us reflect on a year in which the world has now changed, but a year in which we also learned that it was not due to superior forces, but human greed. But everything. Everyone will be as before.
ππΏππΏππ
Very powerful and interesting post. It’s so interesting to see how the decisions we made exactly one year ago have shaped our lives.
Makes you think!
ππππΏππΏ
Little by little we go so far! It’s amazing how much we accomplish and how much we grow when we look back over a year. Here’s to the year ahead, all we can do and all we will be able to reflect on when we look back next time. Thank you for sharing your inspiring words π
ππππΏππΏ
I can’t believe its been a year. Time has gone by so fast.
ππ yyyeeeaaahhhhh!
Time passes by so fast these days, I can’t believe it’s been a year already. What a powerful and inspirational post!
ππ right?
Aw love this post. Inspirational and motivating. It’s crazy how quick the year has gone and how much has gone on so good to reflect.
ππ thank you!
Crazy to think about how fast time flies. It’s been a year since I was happy with my best friend whom I broke ties with shortly after. Can’t believe it’s been so long
πππ©π©
Can’t believe it’s been a year already because it feels like it happened just yesterday. Time has truly flown by. But, it’s been so incredibly good and I am so thankful
ππΏππΏππ
Wow such a motivational post! How true that time passes so quickly and it is up to us to make the most of now!
