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.
One must be open to change for the better when things change, don't be stagnant and dormant when you are supposed to be active, and moving.
One must strive to do the best everyday in everything they do to improve their life and to those around them.

So lets get out there and "pambana na hali zetu".

Most of the times people know what they want and what they should do but they are always afraid of taking chances, putting their vulnerability on the line because of the outcomes that are unknown but also could turn to be very positive. They find it easy staying in their comfort zone, overestimate the question of "what could go wrong'' and exaggerate the consequences of what might happen if it goes wrong'' and then we miss the step. Taking risks can give us a lot of benefits than we mostly think as follows, Taking risks opens our minds to new challenges and new opportunities that we have always been eyeing and haven't taken a step to. For example i am very shy person and i really don't know how to speak publicly, infarct i can faint when told to give a public sp...

SUrVing The StorM

Life is definitely not a straight journey, it comes with all form of packages that can be interesting, surprising and breaking. We are constantly learning new things everyday and sometimes when we think we know it all, the wonder of them all explodes on our face. We are human beings and so humanity comes with error. It comes with the unexpected from those we never expected, but honestly if we all held the thought and understanding that we are human beings and so we are prone to change then no one can really surprise us by anything they do or don't do.
