Our Love is Loud

December 31, 2009

The curtain falls on yet another year and marks the beginning of a new season the year 2010 no more 00.Heard someone asking what do we call this decade the tens?? coz before we had the 80s then came the 90s but after the millenium the confusion begun was it the 00s and now what is it. It was a tough year, challenging,happy and yet also a strange year coz not many things stand out sure a few big events took place but generally it feels and am sure many will agree it was a year that passed by in a blur. One day it was January and before you knew what hit you it was June and you were left wondering where did the rest of the year go to. We have learnt some hard lessons repeated others that we didn't learn our first time around grown both in girth for some of us and in grit hopefully everyone. Lost some special people both near and close.

I Carry Your Heart With Me i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)i am never without it(anywhere i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling) i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want no world(for beautiful you are my wor...

Life 101 or Como Todo Sobre......

October 30, 2018

Sometimes the hardest thing in life is knowing which bridges to cross and which bridges to burn.And sometimes a man can meet his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.if it simply comes all in the beginning it wouldn't be better. Deep huh.... I found this as a draft of a post that i started writing a few years ago and as much as i have a great memory (my friends call it elephant), i don't recall what i was thinking about or even why i abandoned it halfway. But since i started it and it was such a good beginning, it would be a shame not to complete it. Yesterday i left class in the evening, one of those classes where the lecturer is pretty cool and has a way of bringing to life whatever she is teaching and it was on family communication, which was pretty interesting considering that in church we have just finished a sermon series on generations, which is on family. So i got into a matatu immediately which is not often the case simply cz i never see the need to allow myself t...
