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 different path in life, we cant all be the same and the there is no formula to be followed so as we can all be equal,
Everyone has their own choices  in life.
Besides that getting a life partner is not always an easy task, not all people are lucky to get their perfect match, sometimes it involves making many mistakes before meeting the right one.
Of course it is every girl's dream to walk down the isle like princess Cinderella and build a family of her own, but sometimes it delays.
So i ask myself, do people really give a thought before asking this question?
Every person  has a way of reacting and responding to this questions and the pressure it comes along with it, not everyone is strong enough to handle this. Some people get depressed with this, some just
decide to settle for less of what they really deserve.
Now the question is, will you just marry because of the pressure put around you? 
why do people Marry?
Do i love you more than i know you?

here is a little advise,!
Being single in your late 20's is a blessing, it is not a curse.
You know yourself very well by now, you know what things you want in life, you have had quite a share of life experiences, you are mature and you can almost handle anything coming on your way.  No one in this world knows what is best for you than YOURSELF, everyone has their own opinions but the choice remain yours.Embrace yourself and be happy with everything around you.  I always follow my heart for what i think is best for me., at the end of the day it is you who is going to live that life and feel things. Be wise, Pray.
and
before you get married! If you thinking of getting Married, Make sure you spend as much as quality time as private time as possible getting to know the person you intending to spend the rest of your life with.there is no Rush! Dont do it to prove to people that finally you got someone to put a ring on it.
Do i love you more than i know you? ask yourself this question.
After the beautiful wedding and celebrations, You are still married, it is just u and him., dont get caught up in the moment, dont get married for all the wrong reasons and motivations,love him but get to know him, dont marry a stranger. 
It is very painful to paint this picture, of who you think and believe this person is and then you discover they are nothing than what you assumed they were. 
It is painful to go on that road trying to figure out who is that person you got married to,.
Most people want the ring but it is not like in football or any other game, when you get the ring 
you win the championship and the game is over. but when you get married the game just starts. You dont wanna get to know the person that you married on the other side (inside the marriage )because that will be very painful for you. 
So lay it transparent before the ring., take your time, no one wants to be caught off-guard.
Because the truth is you might fall or be caught up on the image, physical looks like how they look now, but natural disasters might come along, and change this people we love in this experience are you gonna still stick with them?
Hopefully you marry your best friend, someone you really know, someone who really you have a mutual understanding, someone who can not judge you on things that others will judge you, someone who you can talk to absolutely anything and they will understand you., someone who you will fight with and still wanna be with you.

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.
