Exhale...

I don't like how & why I skipped a month of writing on here 😟😟. I'd told myself that this year & this space in particular would get the best version of me. I'd said that I'd try so hard to put up a post (if not two+) on here every month. Sadly, last month was really just a shitty month and I wasn't the best version of me hence the lack of a story 🤗.  Look who we have here today though?! I realize that for me to have great flow of ideas, I have to be in the right headspace. September gave me none of that!! ☹

So, where's my head at? 

Dear Mercy, what's the one thing you want addressed by you? Well, now that you asked. I'd like to actually tell myself something I consider very vital to general life progress. 

Mercy, breathe! INHALE. EXHALE. 

Things can occasionally go from zero to 💯 real quick. You're gonna find yourself taking up more and trying to handle more than you probably can tackle. Relax. Breathe! EXHALE. 

Will everything eventually work out for You? I don't know about that but looking at how far you've come, don't you think things will undergo a surprising  positive turnaround?? Just breathe baby. 

You've done your best trying to support your siblings. Pat your back because you are THAT girl! Process hasn't ended yet but you get shit done. Keep doing it. You are doing amazing sweety! 💯✔

Finally,

Don't allow the FOMO let you look down on your progress even for a moment. You are the baddest & your energy,...ooh you boisterous girl, your energy will be matched. The universe has a way of bringing what's yours to your doorstep. 

📣📣 Exhale Baby. You will be fine!

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...

ROOFTOP

After exactly 3 months and 11 days, today I went back up the stairs to the rooftop of the apartment we stay at. Trembling and shaking, I kept taking a step after the next hoping to get to the top. Several times I kept thinking, …why go? …but kept at it regardless. On this rooftop, I had set a very calm meeting place with my Father. For about 3 months leading to the delivery of my darling baby girl, I'd come up here, do some simple workouts but most importantly have a daily tete-a-tete with Him. I couldn't and still can't wrap my head around the fatigue that comes with the 3rd trimester and rightly so, many times I contemplated not going up there. What made me keep up with the routine was the fact that I knew He was waiting for me and was eager to talk about how far and smooth my pregnancy journey was.   We'd talk about my hopes, dreams and plans for baby in my tummy. We'd discuss my maternity leave plans and among other things mostly just sit in the silence of dawn ...

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'...
