PERFECTION OR FULFILLMENT?

Hey, Long time no see. I hope you have been keeping well and living on your own terms. I felt like I wanted a space to express my thoughts... and here we are. So... There is nothing I have missed more than writing. I am in no way claiming to be top tier but the feeling that comes with it is totally unmatched. You get to express yourself in a way that has a mystery of sorts. With YouTube , my face is plastered on the screen and you wanna come off like you have some semblance of sense or if I dare say so myself, come off politically correct. My friend used to tell me she loves wearing sunglasses because it gives her a sense of anonymity.  Like if she met someone she didn't want to talk to she would swerve the hell out of them because she was sure they didn't notice it was her.πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. I used to laugh at her so bad but in hindsight, the blog clearly was that invisibility cloak for me. Here I have a canvas to express myself in whatever way I want; be comfortably vulnerable and bare

FEAR:THE IMMOBILIZER

Hello my Wisdom Nugget Fam!😊 Mnjaua free trial ya 2020 imeishaπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚... so I hope are on board doing what you need to be doing! This weeks topic has been sponsored by The Anxiety and Overthinking Limited. Established AC (After Christ). It was listed in Forbes as the one of the biggest companies to invest in lost dreams and hopes. They have been having a successful run to be honest. But we are hoping to get them out of business! SOOON! PS: Am I the only one whose mind went straight to transformers soon as I read the immobilizer part? Sounds like some ugly green robot with some twisted sense of humor.. ama i'm crazy? lol Anyway, I stumbled upon this passage from the Life of Pi by Yann Martell and felt it fit the topic at hand to a T.  As Pi (the main character) was recounting his experiences as a castaway on the Pacific Ocean, he said, “I must say a word about fear . It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life. It is a clever, treacherous adversary

HONORING YOUR GIFT AND BLESSING

HAPPY NEW YEAR FAM!!! Hope the new year kicked off well... So, it is becoming somewhat a trend that I write a post at the beginning of the year when my heart is full of hope, zeal, aspiration... only to be be derailed in the course of the year na vitu za dunia as people like to call them ... haha!  I hope things will be different this time round ... where I learn the essence of committing to things. Whether they bring monetary value or nah, because I need to honor the gift that I have been blessed with. I watched some Joel Osteen video earlier today and it was clearly what I needed to jump start this blog. It opened my eyes in a way I didn't know I needed. I hope it has the same effect on you. When listening to the sermon, what stood out to me the most is that God will use what comes after the "except"... *Crickets* Doesn't make sense right?  I'll explain... In 2nd King Chapter 4, there was a widow, her husband was friends with prophe

ADVENTURES OF A CHEAPSKATE

In recent times I have realized I can be one hell of a cheapskate. I’m one of those people who will go to some interesting lengths for a great deal. No shame by the way! The kikuyu in me cannot, and I repeat cannot , let me spend more money than I need to. I will wake up in the wee hours of the morning to get the sale, panda a Safe boda motorbike to Kisumu for a deal, haha! I’m just being silly but I’m sure you get the drift. But as I write this, my hunger for good deals almost got me conned . Heh! Heh! Heh! Let me indulge you. My colleague had recently discovered a Facebook page called Jumuia that had really great deals on electronics. She knew that I was planning on moving out soon so she had to put a sister on. πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ. The Facebook page had a post that they would have a 7 th  anniversary sale soon so I was mad hyped. Mimi nani… I put some money away looking forward for the sale.   Earlier today (1 st July) they put up a post that they are selling a microw

CHANGING TIMES

I had a serious case of nostalgia and went back to read my previous blog posts. In hindsight I was subconsciously looking for what motivated me to write them and trying to understand why I couldn’t write anything to save my life lately. Haha! so relatable What I found out was pretty interesting... the blog actually gave me purpose, week after week, when I really didn’t have much going for me at the time.  If nothing else I knew for a fact my gifs and awkward stories would get someone laughing their a* off (parental advisory, lol). Or my moments of vulnerability would help someone understand that they weren’t alone in any way, shape or form; and it just took one voice to make them more secure in their situations or themselves.  So ... what was so different now though? I feel like sometimes life takes over slowly but surely especially when we let it. My lovely current boss found me with a novel at work and told me how she used to read them a lot before her cute boys came

HOW HONEST IS TOO HONEST?πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”

Is  there something like too honest??? Or is it just something people came up with to protect their egos from reality? Honesty: A virtue so few have yet everyone claims to have it; A trait so many want to portray and act like they can handle it, yet are not emotionally positioned to take it from someone else; A trait that may often come out as rude and bruising yet the intention was pure Don't you just hate it when someone says, "chills for who?" yet for starters, you had no intention for the statement to come off so blunt even though you approve the message.. or is it just me? I feel like it takes away from the true intention of the message. Even though it may be trivial. Late last year I was invited to a surprise birthday party. Everything was going pretty well. Our hommie Omosh had whipped up some fire food.  Good music was playing. The surprise aspect didn't fail(Thank you God!). So it was time to cut the cake. We are all around the dinn
