What will people say?
What will people not say?
After all is said, done and said again,
What will people not say?
After all is said, done and said again,
What will people not say?
Will life end?
Will your air be cut short?
Will your destiny be aborted?
Will your future collapse?
Will your day turn to nightmare?
Will you stumble and fall?
Will the nightmare turn to reality?
Will the pain become permanent?
Will you lose all your ‘friends and family’?
Will all you have built thus far fall to the ground?
If yes, people might have let it happen but you let it remain.
They might have started the fire but you allowed the flame to consume you.
They might have sown the seed, but you watered and fertilized it with your fear,
They might have said all the negative things any human can muster, but you chewed it up until it became part of your system,
They might have sneered at you but you took their sneer as the definition of your worth,
They might have spat at you and hissed as you walked by, but you enveloped yourself in their venom and they choked you as the snakes they are,
They might have stopped being your friends and family but you chose to be lonely,
They might have spread the rumors about you but you continued those rumors by hiding yourself in shame,
They might have shamed you in every human way possible but you accepted it when you let them push you away from your life,
They might have set their feet for you to stumble but you
remained on the ground,
They might have stabbed you with their words, but you pushed
it deeper when you took their words as gospel,
They might have broken down your confidence with their
hammer, but you left the pieces on the ground and walked away,
They might have made you doubt the existence of your future
but you gave them the title of god,
They might have taken you to the very edge of your limit,
please do not fall over because of their invisible hands tilting you,
They are not worth it.
Vanity upon Vanity is Vanity.
Life is in phases
Humans are fickle
Give it time and their lunch topic would change to something
else; not because you stopped being interesting but because they got bored.
They might have used you as their topic of their lunch but
who cares?
When you fall, stand up and walk again.
People will always say,
People will always talk,
You cannot separate the two.
To think people will not always talk is like saying they won't breath!
People like to say and talk!
They move on from one news to another,
From one gist to another,
From one scandal to another,
If you are looking for reassurance, what they are saying about you is timed, very soon they would move on to the next topic, only if you give them another one to talk about...
Let them say...it's their mouth, their words and action... It's a cycle and you won't be the first or the last they would talk about!

Live your life to please God!
Colossians 1:20
‘So that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way:
bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God’
You are offered poison; will you drink it because you don’t want people to say you did not accept their gift?
He proposed to you in public in front of your friends, you
know he slapped you yesterday, you want to say no, but you say yes because you
are afraid of what people will say and then you still end up saying ‘I do’? to
what exactly?
You do not like where you are at the moment, but you are
afraid to leave because of what people will say?
You have a friend who pulls you down and brings out the worst
in you, but you cannot cut her off because you are sentimentally thinking of
what will she say if you do?
You get invited to a ‘gathering’ your spirit is not agreeing
to but you go regardless because you don’t want people to say you are boring?
You are holding back from saying your mind because you do not
want people to say you are rebellious, in other words, having a mind of your
own?
You are fulfilling another person’s ‘destiny idea’ of you and
you do not want to break through because you don’t want them saying you are
ungrateful?
What is the worst that can happen after people talk? There is a reason man is not God; Do not extol man to God status.
Proverbs 21:1-2
The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the Lord; he guides it wherever he pleases.
People may be right in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their heart.
The only approval you need is the approval of God! Just keep striving towards being a better version of you.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman
that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
