What’s the easiest thing you’ve ever had to do? Personally, my answer would be ‘put up a face.’ It’s by far the easiest thing I have ever had to do. Trust me; people like me would win an award for this. I’ve done it practically all my life but its disadvantages are on the high so I’m learning to just be honest with reality and more so myself. It just amazes me how in the outside world every body perceives you to be this ‘Miss Independent’ kind of girl like Neyo would sing. You walk like the boss, talk like the boss, etc. They call you all sorts of good names, and shower you with flattering remarks. Like recently, a friend of mine, decided to expound on the fact that I am too special with these exact words. “You’re beautiful, sweet, kind, you’re certainly loving, your sexy like a problem… you’ve been through a lot but you still remain to stand as a strong woman…the list is endless” Now you can imagine, I was trying not to smile really hard, but I couldn’t hide it. Until I was ...

Daring to be different, in a world where the majority seem to be copy-pasting every single detail that crosses their sight is quite complex. I mean it’s easier to have fun, get playful with some things, tolerate some people but not get involved, go with the flow so long as you are enjoying yourself and there’s no visible harm, right? WRONG!!! Yes you will have fun; yes you will go with the flow and enjoy yourself cautiously, but just because the results are not forth coming presently, doesn’t mean they don’t subsist. During my high school days I learnt a lesson, that to date is still relevant. A habit is not some influence that is infused in you and suddenly you get an immediate sensation, yelling the words, “I got the power”. It begins little by little, bit by bit. As you well know, the Swahili proverb that states, “Haba na haba hujaza kibaba” (Little by little fills the pot). And once you have just about enough of it, it becomes part of you, or you a part of it, and it contro...

If you know this song, sing along with me: "It's a jungle out there Disorder and confusion everywhere No one seems to care Well I do Hey, who's in charge here? It's a jungle out there Poison in the very air we breathe Do you know what's in the water that you drink? Well I do, and it's amazing People think I'm crazy, 'cause I worry all the time If you paid attention, you'd be worried too You better pay attention Or this world we love so much might just kill you I could be wrong now, but I don't think so! 'Cause it's a jungle out there " ( It's a jungle out there by Randy Newman ) Sound track for the Hit Tv show, 'The Monk' Yeah, I knew, you would sing it. But if you listen to it closely, you will realize, it’s not just a song, IT'S THE PLAIN TRUTH!!! The world is a jungle. Being a young Christian in the 21st Century, is more of a nightmare, than a beautiful dream. Interestingly the bible tells us, ...

I'd like you to take a minute and just stop what you're doing-but if you're reading this you can continue :-) Take a while and just reflect on those times, you have asked yourself, why I'm i still single? Then, think of a time you felt lonely and try and remember what you did... Did you think of someone? DO you think of people? Did you think of something, you know like you get this sudden crave for crisps and chocolates to try and drown your loneliness? This may be one of the shortest things I will ever say on this blog, but sometimes it is the brief things that we say that actually make a difference. I hope this will be one of them... I don't know about you but, I can tell you for sure that being a single in the 21st century is not the easiest of things, especially  if you intend to keep your self chaste until the day that you say I do. In this journey of life you will find millions of people who will somehow just succeed in making you feel or sense that th...
