SUrVing The StorM

Image result for in times of trouble picture

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.

Nature can not be controlled too and things can come and take away what we think we have, there can be natural disasters , accidents or anything that takes away our peace of mind, that cost us financially or that takes our time or are so hurtful.

The question is how do we survive in times of trouble?where do we go?what does our mind tell us?whom do we turn to

I have learned 5 things that help me survive any storm that comes on my way as follows;

I PRAY-(this is my first step, i pray for strength wisdom, understanding and self control)
I STAY CALM- (this has been the hardest thing that am still learning to manage, as i am a panicky type of a person, but staying calm helps you to think rationally and avoids the effects after stress)
I TRY TO THINK POSITIVELY(trying to remember that NO SITUATION IS PERMANENT and that it passes so fast than you can think)
EVERY STORM COMES WITH A LESSON(yes there is always a lesson one can learn from every situation, besides that bad situations make you know your abilities, how strong you are and how creative you can be in solving them)
HOPE-(as long as you are alive then there is hope, so don't be so quick to give up. Stick around and stretch yourself enough to make it)

Just remember storms will always come and you will always find away.

lots of love

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.
