What if for once in your life you choose to stop believing what you have been told about ember months.
What if you choose not be afraid or anticipate sorrow in the ember month.
What if you choose to see ember months as the best months of the year.
What if you choose to live in faith and hope instead of fear of the months of the ember
What if you choose not to cast the spirit of death in the ember month but just spend time in gratitude for the ember months.
The truth is, no death, no sorrow or ill luck is projected into the ember months. You are just afraid because you have been conditioned to see the ember months as when all the evil machinations of village people will come to pass. The ember months look to you like the monstrous months with weapons of mass destruction only waiting to take lives. So you walk on egg shells once it’s September and hold your breath through to December until you find yourself in January, then heave a sigh of relief. Isn’t it?
In case you don’t know. Fear is a billion-dollar business, someone gains from it. This is the season, the reason there are voices invoking fear in all corners you turn..
The ember months are not the problems, humans are the problems the ember months have.
Some will die because they will develop so much fear of the ember months until they die of high blood pressure.
Some will die because they have targets they set to be met by the end of the year, so they go into stress so much until stress kills them before December.
Some will become reckless on the road in order to meet up and end up not returning.
Some, by the targets they have set for themselves must be married by the end of this year, so they jump into marriage with people who will kill them by 31st of December.
Some will die because it is time!!
Your Life is a continuum, the end of a year is not the end of life, it is’just a pause, a transition to another season. Not the end of your life. What didn’t happen in December, can happen in January?
The end of the year is actually a time to slow down, take things easy, rest from all our stresses, our successes our mistakes and failures within other months. No fretting, no anxieties, no casting, no binding but only expressing gratitude.
This ember months, choose to think differently. You will be glad in the end.
Do not forget that the whole of 2020 is not made up of only ember months, yet look at how “embertious ” it has been so to say.
Ember months dey vex for you for accusing them of what they have not done. You are the one who is embarrassing these months by your illogical, superstitious mindset.
