LIFE lived

Its been a long two weeks since Sept the 7th and if you are wondering what was going on then,its just the last day i blogged! A lot has happened since,but most importantly Ive been more sure about myself and about what life has to offer! Ive come to realize that I'm actually one lucky woman even though it dont always see it and appreciate it like I should! Ive appreciated my good friends more coz lets be honest there are many people out there who sit alone for hours without having anyone to call or have anyone call them for that matter! Ive seen the heights a loving mother will go to make sure a daughter is more than OK! Ive seen love unfold in front of my own eyes and I'm never forgetting a friends's proposal to the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with,a first for me! Ive understood more about getting ahead with those that matter because they are the same people who will be around the longest! Ive realized that life isn't easy and no one said it would be...

I'm thinking today I probably deserve a medal!Its now 11:58 and Ive just gone online since i sat on my desk at 8 a.m this morning but only because I have been swamped! And yes I said 8 a.m,I made it to work on time today!But there was no bubble about it! The first text I read today as I was on my way to work must have been sent sometime last night and when I read its content I could hardly believe my eyes! Two guys from home had been involved in a grisly road accident it said and one was in a critical condition and in the ICU! May God be with him and grant him a quick recovery! Sad it is that life is so precious and can change in an instant! My last line on yesterdays blog was life is short and that's a line used carelessly until it actually hits you that life is terribly short! But the tragedy of life is not in its shortness but in us who take too long to begin living it!I dont want mine to pass me by as i sleep or as i wait for miracles to happen!No need to wait for a shoot...

Yesterday I was only fifteen minutes late!Not bad for a Monday someone would say after all the cliche Monday blues allows it!Today I managed to even get better at it,i was 25 minutes late.How cool that i managed to get better at doing badly!And if the trend continues,I might not even show up for work on Friday.And just yesterday i made  few promises to myself,less than 24 hours later,im already breaking them! I dont know how i expect to keep promises made to others if i cant even keep those i make to myself!! So earlier on ,when i was getting seriously late and its amazing how traffic always seems to get worse just at the wrong time,i couldn't help but wonder if this African timing crap will ever come to end! If i wanted to get to the office in time i should be able to leave my place in good time having anticipated delays from having to wait for a matatu to getting caught up in traffic!At some very desperate moment i found myself wishing i lived in an RV camper van (road-trek mot...

Recently the world has been filled with a lot of uncertainties! Everybody is asking questions but nobody seems to be giving any answers! From the problems of global warming,world peace, economic recession,famine and drought most people seem to be in a state of disorientation! It leaves us wondering where to turn to in these difficult times!! Will there be light at the end of this long dark tunnel? Imagine feeling like this every single day of your life! Living an every day life of not being able to tell what the future holds! Not knowing if life will ever get any better and bring an end to the nightmare that so defines your life! There are communities amongst us who are not new to this! Maybe its true,most of us can only identify with the pinch of a shoe we have actually won and not that we saw someone else wearing! So what better time to create awareness on issues affecting humanity than this? We need to reach out to the people out there who have not seen the good si...

These days I find myself with so many questions and no answers and this is terrifying!! I am beginning to think maybe I don't have my life really figured out but then I have to ask who really does? That ceo with the huge en suite office and a flashy car that takes him to his Runda home probably has the same feeling as I in regard to his work and life! He probably has more sleepless nights than I do thinking about his company's continuous decrease in the level of income! So I began to think if all this life gives us is uncertainties,what am I doing to ensure mine don't bring me down? This ceo has himself figured out if all he has to do to is assemble his juniors and ask for  ideas and probably pick the best from the lot!!And that may make his work easier,who knows? Maybe too many good ideas are not good to work with either!! So today i'm  wondering if its too-many-ideas-syndrome i suffer from or its the lack of thereof!!Id like to think of myself as a sharp cha...
