Why do some people fall madly in love and others don't?
Is the world really coming to an end??
Why is it that Africa with all it mineral resources has the highest rate of poverty in this planet?
Why is it that some people find pleasure in killing others especially the suicide bombers?
Why do I have to work so hard so as to earn aliving?
so many thoughts in my mind though the above are the most pressing and why do i really have to think this much?
Guess there is something going on that I dont know or else I wouldn't be having such thoughts.
May be am just bored.....
But I can't stop thinking and wondering...
The thoughts just keep flooding my poor mind...

LET GO.
LET GO
By T. D. Jakes
There are people who can walk away from you.
And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you, let them walk.
I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us.
For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. So stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ......
LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth.....
LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you .
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction......
LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents
LET IT GO!!!
If you! u have a bad attitude.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level inHim........
LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship.......
LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves......
LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed ..........
LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for 2007!!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then .
LET IT GO!!!
Because "The Battle is the Lord's!"
Wow!! Just love this, just imagine there are people we really cry to be with and even reach an extent of doing all you can so as to be with that person but you can't.what Bishop TD Jakes is saying is very true, if we let go and accept the other's decision I believe one will get that inner peace (s)he didn't know (s)he would get, you know it becomes a blessing in disguise.
So to all my buddies out there remember if you dont let me, I will definately let you be.
Cheers!

moving on...
"The past cannot be regained, although we can learn from it; the future is not ours even though we plan for it... we have only today" This is aquotation from Charles Hummel and I must say it's so true, often times all we do is hold grudges about something that happened in the past, we plan for tomorrow but forget that the best time to live is today.I remember while still at University how we planned for our days after school, how we would get good jobs and beautiful homes, when I look back I laugh and smile and thank God that though I planned for how am living now am also glad that the plan was successful but I learnt one important thing, that we only have today.
Just imagine if one did her best today I guess each one would be satified with what he or she has done and if we continued living our lives this way then every day would be a happy day for each and every one of us.
I can't help but think of the days when I was a young girl, growing up in the village with my grandie, going to the forest to collect firewood, going to the well to fetch water, going to the garden... at times Feel like going back to such alife style but then, the days are long gone and am now all grown up and used to the city life but I must admit that when I think of those days I feel like rewinding the clock and going back to being that little girl who enjoyed her village life, there was no electricity, but my grandie's little mud kitchen was a very confortable place. I remember me, my sisters and brothers would sit together and quitely each listening attentively to the colonial stories my grandie told us....
That was life then and I must appreciate the fact that I did have that opportunity of living in the village I know some of my friends have never experienced it and when one ever talked of village life they all seem lost. I learnt alot from this kind of life I was exposed to, by then my grandie would tell us that if we wanted to live like the people in the city we had to read hard all she kept saying was that we were no different from the kids in the city only that we lived in the village and they lived in the city. To cut the long story short,we did read hard, have gotten jobs and are living today to the fullest. And as for my grandie, believe me she is the happiest grandie I know of and I can never thank her enough...
As I keep growing that is age wise, I learn alot and I use all my past experinces as something I can draw back to. But as for now am taking every day as if it were my last day on this earth and am expecting every one of you people out there to do the same and please not neglect to plan for the future, we do so for the next generation and for ourselves as well I dont think any of us would want to work during the old age when you should be relaxing and reminiscing the old good days
Till then....

LOVE, BETRAYAL AND LONELINESS
Hi,
Guess you people are doing well and it has been helter-skelter for me getting ready for my exams and working as well but then this wouldn't stop me from writing this blog... I feel what am about to write itching my finger tips and guys you have to help me out and I guess that's a promise from your side.
Love, most of you will agree with me is too sweet.Most often we ladies dream about the fairly tale love affairs where you meet that prince charming either you meet the right frog and kiss it or your prince charming has to rescue you from that haunted castle... whatever way one would want to meet his or her lover doesn't matter as long as you meet the right person.
I have a friend, I wont mention her name but my God while in University her talk was all about marriage and you know, that perfect marriage life and before graduation she was married but three years down the road she has separated with her husband and as I write this, she is promising never and I mean not even to allow a single drop of love into her life Lol!
In most cases we want to be loved and well give back that love as well but before you love someone have you thought about loving your self? I think and am sure that if one sat back, had aserious meeting with him or herself and the agenda should focus mainly on you and you alone, think about you, what is it about you that you are looking for in a relationship? How do you treat your self? Do you love your self? I belief a person will treat you according to the way you treat your self. Love your self first, pamper it, have a focus and when you think you are ready to settle down with someone go ahead but remember you should think about you its not that one should be selfish but if you don't love your self who will do it for you?
Often times when love turns sour and the parties involved go separate ways, the victim who is hurt most withdraws to herself or himself and becomes so reserved they come up with promises of never falling in love again. I know this stage can be so hurting emotionally but then you have to move on, its only you who can make change in your life no one else will do it for you. so, the earlier you do it the better for you!
Recently, a friend to my friend was asking her to get her a man and her reasons were that she was too lonely. By the way she was too blunt to the extent of saying she was missing sex! I don't know how some people regard loneliness but I believe that if you are someone who knows what you are you will always value yourself and off course sex is something intimate but its also good having it at the right time- guess you all know what I mean by the right time. Not being in arelationship should render one lonely, there are so many things one can do, like go watch movies, move out with your friends, have some fun, actually I normally tell my friends to have some time and do it alone what I mean is have abubble bath with all the perfumes you love, cook yourself your favourite dish then have acandle lite dinner for you with your best wine or champagne, listen to some good music and even dance, basically give yourself a good treat.
As for my friend's friend, I totally think she is thinking the wrong way and that's why in the beginning I asked for your help. Can some one be that lonely?? What can one do in order not to feel lonely? Tell me what you people out there think... I cant wait to hear from you.
Enjoy....

Hello!
Hello everyone!!
I dont know how you guys are feeling this year but as for me it has definately began wonderfully and am not saying that everything is moving on smoothly rather am seeing to it that i enjoy the year.
Now just wondering.... has the world ever been abetter place to live in?
Guess there are so many answers to this question, what I know is that we have choices when it comes to the way we live and that determines whether the world is abetter place to live in or not.
Am not going to write about the choices we make but just have a small story to share with you people.Recently on my way from work something funny happened to me as I was moving towards the taxi park I noticed this guy smiling at me, mark you it was a wide smile and I thought to my self that this guy must be knowing me... I moved towards him greeted him and my God the way he grabbed my hand and since i was wearing my company shirt that day he straight away lamented that i can tell you are doing well and he even asked me how work was I told him fine and straight away I also asked him what he was up to and his work.
He told me he was working with BBC and was back in town from Nairobi. This sent my thoughts flying high and I had to think hard, was I imagining that I did know this guy? I had to ask God to help me. As we continued talking he asked about other people I didnt even know or did I know them but had forgotten? He told me they were our old school buddies but to be sincere I didnt know them. I had to end the meeting right away and excused my self in the pretex of going to meet someone.
Am still wondering what I was up to that day....I saw the guy smiling and I just dragged my legs towards him... what on earth was I thinking? Meeting someone strange and even having some talk about the old school days... I must have been crazy!!
At times life is so sweet and funny the people we meet and when I come to think of all the people I meet am thankful. We all meet different kinds of people some funny others weired and some just so sweet.Funny and interesting.... and thats life!!

REALITIES OF LIFE...
Ever asked your self what is so strange about life and yet
it's also the reality? Well I made some discoveries and I want
share them with you.
Do you realise that what we are today is aresult of our own past actions
and whatever we wish to be in future depends on our present actions?
So, decide on how you have to act now.
As humans we were born to live and we don't live because we are born
We should not go the way life takes us rather we should take life the
way we go. I have come across people who say they will follow the course
of the wind, where ever it blows they will go. Now I completely dont buy this thought even if we all have choices to choose from, we should live ameaning ful life and make the best choices.
I have discovered that the happiest human beings are those who were able to
face their difficulties along their paths and simply because they were
able to push forward.I wonder what they mean by "difficulties".
Never explain your self to anyone because if the person likes you he or she will
not need it and the person who dislikes you will not believe it. Afriend told me this
but thinking twice, at times there is need for explanations depending on the situation.
I wonder if you understand your self wholly and I think I do try to understand
my self but as per the lttle research I carried out, I got to know that the most
difficult phase of life is not when no one under stands you, its when you dont
understand your self... weired isnt it?
This is for now but there is more to come.....
till then
