In this previous post here i mentioned that i was looking forward to being a frequent bible reader. This was because i was slowly losing touch with God, and to be honest it felt awful. It's quite hard to believe in someone you only read about, a super power that you know exists somewhere, one that only our belief convinces us exists! I've always had so many plans, though not all of them work. Sometimes i lack resources, time or maybe plain laziness overcomes me, it's life.

I've developed passion for reading posts from blogs like This is Ess , and many other random ones....hence the birth of Taking Stock. So lemme just run through the sequence without much talk.......enjoy!     Started: A health journey that has paid off really well. By this i mean that i started working out late last year because i felt that i was very heavy. I literally felt like i was two-in-one and i needed to shed off the 'other person'. Good news...i did it! Jogging + You-tube workout channels were of great help! Cooking : More Vegetables, especially " mboga za kienyeji ". Why, because I grew up eating these and i miss them and also because i decided to adopt healthy living. I don't get to do this often because staying in a hostel doesn't give you the luxury of d
