Dope skirts for dope girls

How beautiful are these skirts, isn't big beautiful?

Do I love you more than i know you???

So this is one of the topics that people avoid to talk mostly because they are afraid of how people will view them, am going to be bold and brave enough to speak my mind about this because a week or a month doesn't go by without a close person asking /talking or mentioning about it to me. And i  know a lot of people  or friends who go through this questions. When are you getting married?  Every time you attend a friend's wedding, people will be looking at you and saying, "when is yours? i hope the next wedding is yours", then comparison starts of your age mates. People tend to ask a little bit too much at times, and it is a almost unavoidable, i think in our African culture and views ,a girl is supposed to be married at least by age 25, regardless. Earlier women got married at a very young age and by then things were different than the times we have now. Girls now go to school, get degrees and tend to chase their dreams. I believe every person has a diff

Lessons from the wilderness

A wilderness is considered to be the most inhospitable region/ a position of disfavor. Every person at a point in life experiences a "wilderness experience" (a tough time which endures discomfort  and trials, it can be emotional drought, spiritual or even financial drought). For Christians, there are several biblical examples of people enduring a "wilderness experience", . The people of Israel experienced a wilderness throughout their journey to the promised land and many other examples. Most of us are goal oriented people and we tend to believe that once we settle on a goal, a laser -like focus on it is the best way to reach it, if we block all the distractions around us, then most def initely we are to arrive to the promised land we have been dreaming of. But That's not exactly how life goes. Money is lost, it gets tight, family members get sick, jobs get downsized,houses get burnt, families separate, relationships break and any other things that com

Tanzania policy of kicking pregnant girls out of school is shameful

This is a serious issue that i expect many people will unite to Protest, how can we be making one step foward, two steps back? This does not make any sense in today's world, in a country that is still developing, in a country where the level of literacy is still progressing. This  is totally unacceptable from such a respected leader. Denying girls an opportunity to get Education has a direct impact both on their families and on wider society it actually perpetuates poverty and is against human rights. Girls deserve education as equally as boys, and more work needs to be done to ensure that they have access to reproductive health education so they can make safe choices for themselves and must be in a supportive educational environment. A number of studies have shown that increasing the number of girls benefiting from education has a positive effect on a country's per capital economic growth, So really there is no justifying reason as to why pregnancy should stop a girl

Emotional intelligence

There was this lady  i used to work with, who always knew exactly what to say, kept her cool, in tough situations, a great listener, an excellent problem solver- even under extreme stress, takes criticism well and uses it to effectively improve herself, she was confident. and i always asked myself, how do i get that?how do i get to be like her?,  One day i asked her, how she manages to be like that and she said, "emotional intelligence sweetie" it left me with many questions because I have always heard of IQ(intelligence quotient), (a measure of person's reasoning ability./ how someone can use information and logic to answer questions or make predictions.  BUT never heard of EQ(Emotional intelligence),  which is defined as "the ability to monitor one's own and others' feelings and emotions , to discriminate among them and use this information to guide one's thinking and actions" EQ is very important, as emotions play a very big par

BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED

We cant always choose what comes in our life, neither can we prevent some circumstances happening. life happens. Things happen., whether good or bad, they still happen. You may not be where you want to be in life, you may not have the things you want to have in life, you might be still working on your dream so hard, and at times your life can look so broken and you keep wondering if ever you will be able to put back all the pieces and live completely. But then we have a choice of stepping back and letting situations control us or stepping up and making the best of our situations. " keeping our dreams alive is what uplifts the human spirit ", sometimes our dreams take time., and sometimes we have to tolerate somethings that we do not like to eventually get where we want to be. Instead of getting bitter and giving up, why not try blooming where you have been planted? the big question here is how? >Think of a flower that grows beautifully and admirably through a
