ELVIRA’S PEN

SEEING IS FREE - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! 😁 When it comes to thoughts and imaginations, I am often delusional in my line of thinking. I know that when God peeps into my daydreams    and visions, he will just smile and say “you’re a greedy little thing, aren’t you?” 🙊 As one who has birthed a lot of things in my life through my imaginations, I have come to rely on it a lot. Especially when you did not grow up as privileged as others, you weren’t born into a system where you simply get things without needing them, you need something and they’re provided or you simply ask and it is given. For some of us who didn’t grow with this privilege, I have used my imaginations to call in things that nearly seemed impossible to reach from where I stand in life. I simply did because I could see beyond where I was standing, and could feel and taste these things, even when they seemed impossible. In my years of being asleep, I just imagine and end there. Sometimes these things com...

Let’s look at Nigeria under military rule. What if you woke up one morning, turned on the radio, and discovered that your country's government had been overthrown overnight? Well... if you lived in Nigeria between 1966 and 1999, that wasn't unusual. For much of those 33 years, the country was ruled not by elected leaders, but by military officers. So, how did Nigeria get there? After gaining independence from Britain in 1960, hopes were high. But political tensions, allegations of corruption, and regional rivalry created instability. Then, on January 15, 1966, a group of young army officers carried out Nigeria's first military coup. Prime Minister Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa was killed, along with several top political leaders. Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi became Nigeria's first military Head of State. But his government lasted only six months before another coup in July 1966 brought Lieutenant Colonel Yakubu Gowon to power. Under Gowon, Nigeria faced its greatest...

BE KIND TO YOURSELF - Elvira Jordan (Revised)  Good Morning Beloved! 🤍 I often say that my soothing and intelligent write ups does not mean that my life is perfect in all ramifications. Most times, my notes are messages from my higher self to me. These are messages that are downloaded from my soul/ the universe/ God to direct me, that I choose to share. Just like everybody else on earth, I have flaws, fears and issues that I strive daily to overcome. Of recent, I found myself reliving parts of me that I thought I had left behind. Things that I thought I had outgrown. Inner child wounds and traumas that I thought I had handled. In my journey of self-awareness, I have realized that I only go back to things I had handled in the past, when there are new aspects to heal, to continue healing or to complete healing. This is another reminder that Growth and Healing are not a Linear Processes. The fact that you are progressively improving doesn’t mean you will be “up-there” all the time. I...

WHO THE EARTH REWARDS - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! 😃 According to my own personal studies, there are four types of people on earth… The stars! ⭐️  Rich and successful. People who are thriving in their field, making money out of life and living their best lives. Some of these stars may not be where they want to be yet, or where the world thinks they should be, but they are getting there because they are consciously making things happen for themselves. The average 👌🏽 The ones who live a simple life. They accept whatever comes to them and are satisfied with where they are. Some see being “too successful” as a problem they can’t deal with. They may be getting by some days, struggling some days but do not care. They believe whatever they have is what they deserve  The Passive 🤷🏽‍♀️ These ones don’t care about anything. Whatever life throws at them or wherever it takes them to, they accept. They only care about today because they believe they will leave the earth anyti...
