Actress Debbie Shokoya has said motherhood marked the beginning of the best phase of her life.
In a post shared on Instagram, the actress expressed appreciation for God’s blessings, saying no amount of praise would be enough to honour Him.
The July 19-born actress said she sees every day as a celebration of life and remains committed to learning, unlearning and relearning.
Shokoya said she has chosen to remain authentic and stay true to herself despite the noise and falsehood around her.
She also reflected on her resilience, admitting that her strength sometimes leaves her amazed.
The actress acknowledged that not everyone would like or appreciate her boldness and honesty.
However, she said she is gradually learning to stop worrying about people’s opinions and instead focus on things that genuinely matter.
She wrote: “My best life started after motherhood! I Am Grateful For The Blessings. A thousand tongues are not enough to glorify the name of the lord.
“Oluwa, Ajijola N Dupe. Welcome to my birth month!! July 19th Born. Every day is actually my birthday! I choose to learn, unlearn and relearn every day! I choose being true to myself in a world full of noise and false truths! I choose to stay real in an environment flooded with inauthenticity! My resilience leaves me wondering what manner of being I am!
“I have come to realise that not everyone would like me, stand my guts, admire my boldness, and embrace my honesty! And I have stopped, or maybe am working to stop, caring about it and focus squarely only on things that truly matter and require my reactions.”
