The Simple Things In Life.

I laid in a sofa at my grandma's living room,looking up  the white painted ceiling and walls.I've always enjoyed the serenity at this place because it's quiet and helped me get into deep thoughts.
My eyes got attracted at  an album-ed photo on the wall bearing some writings:

The first one had fresh romantic flowers in a vase with a quote,"Only  wise and good men can be friends  others are but companion".

The second was an elephant with a calf walking through the savannah, the calf size could allow it to walk  beneath the mom and a quote at the edge read,"We are too little to be able to rise above the difficulties well,then let us pass beneath them quite simply".

The third had two peacocks in a flat green beautiful land next to some flowery plants near a lake each headed in different directions and a quote in it read,"The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we are but in what direction we are moving".

The last photo was an elephant seated next to a red bricked building and a  squatting girl was holding it's trunk with one hand while the other touching the back of the feet and the quote in this read,"The quickest way to get back on your feet is get down on your knees".Initially I used to think it was my cousin because she was brown,only to learn it was just a photo of a non-dark.

All these took me back  in my younger days how my granny used to be caring(and she still is).
.....Always giving admonishing on what she thought was best way to live .So many things may not be working but one thing that you taught me and always holds true even in this dynamic world is the simple key tenets to live by:God first,Respect to all,Good choice of friends.
....Her meals,local,nutritious & delicious. Huuu,yummy is the word!

....the sense of humor was just wonderful.Teacher Wanjiku of today.

It's the simple things in life that make the difference and create memories.
Love you Granny.Long Life.
