NEW POST ALERT!

Wassgood fam! Hello from the other side. I haven't been writing for the past one or so years and I'm guilty as charged, I deserve all the critic. I've been busy with school and life. Moreover, it's been pretty overwhelming for me to find inspirations and content. Lately, my life has been like a roller coaster and if I was to  write about my life the past year and the produce a movie, I'd definitely deserve an Oscar Nomination. Good news though, I'm working on a new post that is inspired by someone very special to me 🦉.

Self Confidence

In the beginning of this year I started meditating upon the real meaning of life and the stages I have undergone before achieving my ultimate goals. It hit me that life comes in stages and different ways. What people don’t know is that success is more of a journey than an event and it unfolds in various stages. An important weapon on ones journey to success is the public speaking ability. Your tongue will take you places where your brain will never give you access. This wisdom I got it from Pepe Minambo, a great motivational speaker. Recently I met a very successful man, Mr. Oduor, who had a master’s certificate to his name but lacked a job. He seemed to be an introvert which contributed to his joblessness. Why? This is because in the modern world a lot of wrong people have the right jobs simply because the right people like Mr Oduor. lacked the ability to speak well and convince the interviewers that they were suitable for the job. Sadly some people who lacked the acume

Encounter with Beauty

They say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Well then I was a beholder some few years back when I met someone who to me was the definition of beauty. Okay she was beautiful, stood out in her own way; she was of short stature, her hair was still bent out of shape from her sleep and seemed to be polite. From fifty yards away, she defined beauty. Maybe you have your own particular trait that defines beauty – one with small eyes, prominent nose or graceful fingers, slim ankles, curvaceous or any other traits. But I do have my own preferences. Sometimes I caught her eye then looked away as if it never happened. If eyes would talk then mine would tell her how I felt about her. I sometimes look at different girls because of their perfect eyes but truth be told no one can insist that his perfect girl corresponds to some preconceived type. Much as I like eyes, I couldn’t recall the shape of hers- or even if she had them. All I could remember is that she was of great beaut

A letter to my girlfriend.

Dear girlfriend, I can’t blame thinking that I never knew you at all. I tried to deny you but nothing ever made me feel so wrong. I thought I was protecting you, from everything that I go through just show me how I got lost on the way. And now here I am with all my heart I hope you understand. I know I let you down but I’m never making that mistake again. You brought me closer to who I really I’m, so come take my hand because I want the world to see what you mean to me. Just know that, I’m sorry I never wanted to make you feel so small. Our story is just the beginning but let the truth break down these walls. And every time I think of you, I think of how you pushed me through and showed me how much better I could be. You make me feel like I’m myself instead of being someone else. I want to live that every day. You always say what nobody else says to me. You know exactly how to get to me, you know what I need. For this reason, I’ll be your superman. I’ll take your hand and fly y

Inside a matatu...

Recently I boarded a 111 matatu, Vercase, and I was out of bundles so I decided to observe the various behaviors of the passengers. I managed to analyze the passengers and categorized them into various categories:   The Diva This kind of passenger will enter into a matatu and spot a seat in most cases near a good looking dude. On reaching at the spotted seat, she would open her purse take out her tissue and wipe the seat then pull her skirt and finally sit down. After some time the diva would take out a mirror, make her hair, balm her lips and finally take out a bottle of cheap cologne and apply. Afterwards she takes out her Techno phone and takes selfies then posts them on IG. The Musician This type of passenger would lip sync to each and every song playing in the matatu. He would tap the legs and bob their heads on every song playing. He will also lip sync to the effects of DJ Aslan mixes and also the beats of house music. The Sleeper This passenger would slee

New Beginnings are often disgused as painful endings.

Happy 2017 from me here!! Its been long since I posted I've just been busy with my education. It's a new year and New beginnings are the key for survival. Creating new beginnings demands not just the wisdom, but also the ability to create room for error. I’m not advocating for mediocrity or room for failure, but the wise allowance of the fact that things may not always turn out the way we expected. Never repeat the mistakes that have brought you where you are. Remember God is in control but you are in charge! Budget for the mistakes next time; life is never perfect. If you are expecting a problem free life, that’s both unrealistic and deceiving. Expect and anticipate shortfalls and deficits and plan for them in advance. When challenges are expected and adequately prepared for, they lose the potency of their damage. People let you down and unexpected disappointments may cripple you down but you should not allow a bend in the road become the end of the road. Forget

Ain't I Social?

You say that I am egocentric when we pass each other without me saying Hi. It’s not like you said hi and I failed to respond. What if you said hi and I don’t respond you’ll say I’m arrogant? Didn’t you notice that I had earphones plugged into my ears? The substantial function of the earphones is to tell you that I’m having my time: not that I’m autistic but I just want to be alone. It’s a decoy to say that I don’t want to get into any conversation right now. Remember I’m not a narcissist. Or you come and sit next to me in a matatu heading to Rongai without talking and you expect me to say hi and you can see that I’m glued on my phone’s screen then again you say I’m egocentric! If you need to know, I’m replying to snaps on Snapchat after reading Selena Gomez’s hilarious tweets, double tapping my crush’s every photo on Instagram(although I wasn’t tagged in any) checking out funny Dubsmash soundboards and later reply to all my chats on Whatsapp. These are only five social
