Social Media Illusions

This is a real thing happening..nawaza tu kwa sauti esp kwa nchi zetu za kiafrica hichi kitu cha social media bado kipya kabisa kwa watu wengi..believe me there are people ambao hata hawajui Google ni nini wala hata hawajui kutumia YouTube..na kwa wachache ambao wamejua utandawazi umewakaa vibaya sana..watu wengi wanakaa behind computers and behind any devices za ki internet kutukana watu, kusambaza habari za uongo, kushabikia 'uozo' wa kitu chochote na ninapoona ni kama tunapoelekea ni kubaya..
Social media has made us believe that we know people whom we have never even met(ha!ha)
People display lifestyles over the internet that they can't even afford and funny part of it is that other people are falling for it, envy and stress so much to be that way too..
Nowadays we have applications that beautify anyone and so almost everyone posts a fake picture of themselves!!(haha don't fall in love with any beauty over an internet picture)
Reputations have been ruined..relationships have broken and sad enough is that most of us enjoy talking to strangers over the internet than the people we know.. (Just look at what happens when you go out with your friends, a moment comes when everyone is busy with his/her phone)
We no longer have time to have a real quiet conversation without our phones interrupting
So what do we do??
#Think big before you share anything over the internet..
# Put your phone away when talking to people
#Dont let anyone affect you so much over the internet(you actually don't know them)

There are times when I feel like I have shared so much on the internet and I sit and wish to turn time back and erase everything..but well learning in a hard way..

I wish everyone sits n questions him/herself before sharing anything..

NEW YEAR, NEW MIND

Its 2018. Am grateful to God for allowing me and my family, friends to see this year. 2017, was quite a long, challenging year for me, my mind was a battlefield that hosted the many wars that were in me, i felt helpless most of the time and it was as if everything was not working out. But at the end of the year, i was constantly telling myself that i needed to step in 2018 with a changed mind, changed attitude towards everything that has been battling in my mind, changed view of how i see life, changed mind on how i see myself and life generally. I just wanted to take control of my mind, and every situation that i can possibly control and the hardest i leave them to God. Now a new year, does not necessary make everything new, nor does the movement of the clock produce the newness of life , it is the movement in your mind that gives newness to life. Our biggest enemy we have in our lives is 'ourselves', in what we think, in what we have in our minds, and unless we take

The" Pambana na Hali yako "

Pambana na hali yako is one of the swahili phrase trending in Tanzania. In English one would translate it as " cope with your situation" but in my own translation i would  say "be brave to fight your life battles'' i am one among the people that have been using it so much, and just recently i watched a certain comic video by one of the famous Tanzanian comedian called "Mpoki"' . It made me sit down and  think for the first time, what does "pambana na hali yako" really means to an individual?to me? Well i got five thoughtful things It means that one must be willing to endure, persist and solve the puzzles that life gives him/her, one must manage everything that life throws at them. One must stay strong for him/her self and for the people that depend on him/her given any hardship, challenge.  One must be hopeful as long as s/he is still breathing. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how long it takes.

The Meaning behind Emojis

i love using emojis when chatting. sometimes you dont have to type how you feel or want to express in words an emoji can do that for you. i like texting more than speaking, because i can express myself well in writting than when i speak. So most of us use emojis, but we sometimes wrongfully use their interpretations to what they actually mean. So i took the trouble to find out the meaning of every emoji the common ones and i will be sharing them here with you so that you can be conscious enough not to mix and mess up conversations.
