Life With Dolapo

Dearest, I submitted my project today! apart from that, I am beyond excited to write this to you because you are one of the 16 persons who has made an intentional effort to let me share my life with you by clicking on the follow button. You might not fully understand the importance of what you have done for me by doing so, but I hope you start to realize it as I continue and intentionally keep this relationship we are starting (yes I called it a relationship😂) I think an introduction for my first letter to you is appropriate. Hello again,😁  I am Ifedolapo and I believe strongly in the power of names and expression, that is why I have been making a conscious effort to introduce myself as Ifedolapo and not Dolapo.   I also happen to be a fourth year medical student on the verge of writing my first professional exam in not so far away September.

  Dear Dad, The thought that I might no longer be your little girl As the days go by and growth comes my way Sends chills down my spine. I am afraid you won’t be able to shield me from a world That I am starting to realize isn't rainbows, lollipops and sunshine. I am scared that fear will be my greatest companion Crippling me before I even take flight.   I am afraid that I might not achieve my full potential. I wake up and the possibility I might not love who I fight to become single day Makes me want to put it in no effort and let just life be. But that isn't what you have taught me so far, is it? So I fight, fiercely on some days and weakly, quietly and gently on others. I am scared that the world might just see me as mere an d ordinary When in your eyes, I am the most extraordinary! I am afraid that I might not live up to your expectations of me   I am afraid time will be the ultimate thief That I might have less time to spend with you And you with me.
