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 along. Life took over because of her bundles of joy. I will currently peg my lack of regular (if any) blog posts on: 

 a) I was job hunting so my head wasn’t in the game
b) After being blessed with work, apparently life took over. 

 Were we making excuses or were these genuine reasons? For her, it seems genuine. For me though, well, not so much unfortunately. 

 Can you smell that?
Okay! Okay! Enough with the judgy eyes😂😂 FOR ME NOT AT ALL🤦🏽‍♀🤦🏽‍♀🤦🏽‍♀

 So what’s the real reason?

 Honestly, i'm still working on figuring that out .😭😭😭

 Have you been feeling like you’ve put something that you really enjoyed doing on pause for longer than you anticipated? What was the reason behind it? Was it genuine or an excuse for a much deeper reason? Are you planning on getting back to it? What timeline are you working with or are you on a "when I feel like it” basis?

 Well, I hope I’ve given you something to think about before my next blog post coz I’M BACK BABY!!!💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
I'm excited too Patrick!!! I really am!💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼

Look out for more awkward stories that have really interesting realizations plus bomb gifs! They make everything better 😉

 I hope to see you all on the next post. 
Spread love and light, 
Njeri❤

DEAR NJERI: LETTER TO MY YOUNGER SELF

Hey baby girl! So, a couple of days ago, a dear friend of ours sent us a blog post by Biko Zulu titled  Letter To My 20-Year Old Self    and I thought it would be awesome to share with you some of the life gems I have picked up over the years. On the real,you will make tons and tons of mistakes, some so stupid, some understandable, some due to arrogance, some due to pride, some just to make a point, smh . Unfortunately there are some of which you will foolishly not learn from the first time, but when your thick skull does choose to learn, the lessons you shall acquire from the same will help you navigate through life easier and from a wiser perspective! 'Never a failure, always a lesson,' said Rihanna (Groupie Alert!!!😻😻😻 She'll release some bomb music... Just you wait, hehe!) Njeri, over the years you always wanted to be everyone's rainbow when it rained hailstones in their lives.. You always wanted to be the understanding one and the one with all the s...

HOW HONEST IS TOO HONEST?🤔🤔🤔

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...

FEAR:THE IMMOBILIZER

Hello my Wisdom Nugget Fam!😊 Mnjaua free trial ya 2020 imeisha😂😂😂... 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...
