😊Hey there! This is my entry to the graffiti lettering contest #13.

📍It's my first ever piece of graffiti art, and I'll be honest, I'm a little nervous about sharing it. I'm even more nervous about what your thoughts will be on this, but here we go🤞.

The word for this week's contest is "DELAY", and to support my baby creation, I've used the opportunity and attached a small writeup. The word DELAY may come off as negative, something dreadful, But out of this word is something worth holding onto. Like the riddle, out of something sour comes sweetness, hence, allow me throw in a few words of encouragement to me and someone out there.

"⏩DELAY⏩" is not denial. I say in truth because I've witnessed this truth. What do you do when all your hopes and dream seem to be at still?

How do you explain everyone moving with the speed of light and you feel life leaving you behind? I could try to explain it, but I'd rather not because each man is a race unto himself. No one is better than the other, and if you feel like you've been left behind, take a moment to look back. What do you say about those who are following you as well?

Put yourself on a race track. Each man has his own lane to run. The finish line is the same, but each runner has his own path. Neither is in a better position than the other.

So rather than let envy, hate, jealousy and all the bitter things in life pollute your kind heart♥️
Best still, why not do as my grandma taught me? she said:
"When God blesses your Neighbour, applaud and celebrate with them because it means He's in the neighborhood and your door is next"
Like a Star in the Sky, you shine bright, galaxies far away.

The darkness only makes you shine brighter, your light can't be hidden.
"DELAY is not denial" I repeat, to each man his own race.
