Motivation 2

With this topic, you know the norm right? I share some quotes I've come across that make some sense to me, well, because not all do. Picture quotes are more interesting to look at and so they'll take most space in this particular post. I will be overjoyed is you left a comment, maybe share one quote that keeps you going? Enjoy!

 “It's not my responsibility to be beautiful. I'm not alive for that purpose. My existence is not about how desirable you find me." ~Warsan Shire.

“Don't assume, ask. Be kind. Tell the truth. Don't say anything you can't stand behind fully. Have integrity. Tell people how you feel.” ~ Warsan Shire.

“Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”~ Warsan Shire.

"A wise woman wishes to be no one's enemy; a wise womanrefuses to be anyone's victim."~ Maya Angelou.

 "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time." ~ Maya Angelou.

 "Whatever you want to do, if you want to be great at it, you have to love it and make sacrifices for it."~ Maya Angelou.

"When i look back on my life, i see pain, mistakes and heartache. When i look in the mirror, i see strength, learned lessons and pride in myself."~Unknown.
  
"At the end of the day, it is you that allow your trust to be broken a second time. Don't break your heart by giving trust away easily to those who have habitually broken it. Trust is earned, not given. It's earned through actions, not words."~ Unknown.

"You might not be someone's first choice, but you are a great choice. You may not be rich, but you are valuable. Don't pretend to be someone you're not, because you're good at being you. You might not be proud of some of the things you've done in the past, but be proud of who you are today. You are not perfect, you don't need to be."  ~ Anonymous.

"No one has ever made himself great by showing how small someone else is." ~ Anonymous.


"Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you or makes you happy." ~ Anonymous.                                                
                                                 
"Family isn't always blood. It's the people in your life who want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are. Those who would do anything to see you smile and love you no matter what." ~ Source.

QUORA 3: STAKI MKATE!

Q: Has a homeless/street person ever refused food you've offered them? If so, did they provide an explanation? Well, well, well, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, my fellow repeat readers or repeat clients, if you may! Today I have a short story to bless your eyes and ears. Will it blow your mind? Maybe. Will it give you reason to come back here and check out more stories? Definitely!  I assume that most of you my readers are Nairobi residents and if not, you've been here at one point in your life. This is a notably great city with beautiful people, a people with a culture so rich everyone outside it wants to come have a taste. It is a hub of 'unity', or so they say. It's here that the assorted bunch of the various tribes come to link up, all forty two of them. Our relatives from the rurals are fascinated by this city, no wonder they gather around to hear tales of its craziness every time  Nairobians visit home for Christmas. The streets, as usual, are ever buz...

What's success to you?

When I enrolled into University, my main goal was to succeed, that’s everyone’s goal at this point really. Time has passed by so quickly and the goal still remains the same. Many are times I tend to lose focus on this goal and I end up messing up big time. Life’s like a mountain, you’ve got to gather the strength to move up to the peak despite the strong wind that will try to block you from getting there. You might reach some point and get tired, or you lose the strength to move on but with your eyes fixed at the peak, all is gonna go smoother than you can imagine. But you've got to have the hunger to reach there, you’ve got to have the desire to acquire what’s at the peak, have fire in your belly, be proactive, strong-willed, optimistic and most of all prayerful. All that I think lies with what YOU think success is. There are gazillion definitions of success but I think every single person should have their own definition of this success we all very much want. What'...

3 Lessons at 3: What Marriage Has Taught Me So Far

Today marks 3 years since I said “I do.” Three years of learning, stretching, laughing, fighting, forgiving, and above all, growing (literally and figuratively). Marriage has been both beautiful and humbling. It has mirrored parts of me I never knew existed, both good and not-so-good. It has amplified behaviours I thought I'd perfected. It welcomed we and stopped me at the door with one question: "So you think you've got it all figured out, huh?" As I reflect on this journey so far, I felt led to share 3 core lessons that have stood out for me in this season of becoming one. I call them “3 Lessons at 3.”  - 3 years. Family of 3. 3 lessons.   1. Forgiveness isn’t easy, but it’s necessary Forgiveness for me has been so hard, I can't lie. I struggle to move on from an offense. It is one of the areas that still needs improvement. I hold onto offense for long and have a tendency of wanting to block and forget anyone who offends me. Marriage, however, doesn't give ...
