Life Notes

There is a forum we meet every Sunday and a question was asked:What are the three most important lessons you've learned so far in life.  Each person gave their own version of answers.The following were the responses in order of the most mentioned: 1.Trusting God  It came out strongly that the believe,faith and hope in God kept people going.Hoping things will be better tomorrow is a powerful living tool. 2.Friends The choice of who one associates with affect his/her life and will have an impact to his other spheres of their  life 3.Standing Firm There comes a time when your No/yes remains no matter what the circumstances otherwise one will be like wind. 4 Living life to the Fullest There are things we keep on postponing saying and waiting for good tides,'tomorrow',giving unwarranted excuses of not living the life we've always desired,but one thing always remain there will always be good and bad times,in whichever the season live as if today was our last ...

You can never know how endowed you're until you get a different dose of lifestyle. Woke up early in the morning because the thoughts of continued sleep will make me a poor fellow(I was told)This is the same place that you spent part of your life but on going back your perspective towards issues that you viewed to be okay(because you've never been subjected to a different environment) has completely changed. What is eminent: *Early Cohabition Though this is still rampant even in towns,but then I can't understand how you convince a lady to come to stay together yet you haven't build a house.You only have a room extension from the parent's house.To make it worse they start getting kids. *Lack of Basic Commodites The absence of piped water and roads,for electricity the government has tried through the rural  electrification *Pessimism This is a disease,nothing positive can me noted out of what you want to do.'so and so failed do you think you are sup...

I received the much awaited call that was a life-changing opportunity. Unfortunately,the communication between us was hampered  by some technical hitches,at one point I said,"I'm sorry i can't get you well but,.."The caller just hanged up the phone. I tried calling&smsing but to no avail.And that was the end of our communication. Well,I know you could be ascribing to the philosophy that opportunity come once in a life time. Put yourself in my situation who is to blame.Though I had a consolation that it was not meant to be,that was just a way of easing my pressure. I'm sure most of us have ever lost an opportunity but it wasn't our mistakes or it could be our mistakes.But, I strongly believe that we should listen to the other party too.To err is human we could have lost a precious chance to work,live,love with the best simply because we  didn't give them a 2nd chance. If God gives us a 2nd chance who are we not to.   Jonah 3:1 -10: And the...

It was in a bash cum sleep over... after each person spoke anyone was free to make a compliment or ask a question regarding the way you know that person.Here I was making very genuine compliments.Apparently,it turned out that I was commenting after almost everyone...It had also happened that I was the first to introduce myself.In your introduction,you were to say something about your 'social development',I mean,'The Kabete question'...I mean Single or otherwise.And so I'm yet to crack the code. 'Rutinu is spoilt for choice,Please settle.Everyone is pretty until he ends up complimenting all the ladies!',one dude commented,the entire room burst out with laughter. In another occasion someone warned me not to look at ladies with,'such kind of eyes',What!,I'm contemplating of acquiring glasses."Not everyone will understand that's the way you are,like I do,you will hear stories",The person reiterated. This got me thinking.It mad...

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 wa...

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disen...

I read a book,"Secrets of  A Millionaire Mind" by T. Harv Ever where he gives insights on what makes  the differences between  millionaires and the poor and middle class. He  says that everything we physically see is as a result of Mental,Emotional  and Spiritual Input.Therefore,if something is wrong in the physical perception of it,It's as a result of everything being wrong in the other 3 quadrants. I totally concur with this Man,If for example one has wrongly typed a document and goes to print it.The printer will exactly give you a document with errors,so it will be ridiculous to start hitting the machine,opening bolts or calling experts to come and check what's up with the printer.It has no hitch,work on the document!. Likewise,if something is going haywire with our Finances,Career,Academic,Relationship,Society,Country... It's the high time we realized the blame solely lies on the software that is running our Mental,Emotional & Spiritual Facul...
