The Weight of a Wet Duvet

 Last weekend was one of those weekends I decide to clean the duvet. A key factor to consider is the presence of adequate water and sunshine. I soaked it early in the morning and went to church. When I came back from church most of the dirt was out so I didn't need to use much energy.Once cleaned up it was time to hang the duvet. Unfortunately for me the clothesline couldn't hold its weight and broke. I had to rinse the duvet  again and look for a stronger clothesline that could hold the weight. I am happy to report that I succeeded in my search and the duvet dried and was neatly folded in the evening.

Today I reflected on that incidence and realised it had a lesson for me. Like the first clothesline we may not withstand the weight  of the life baggage we carry, not because we aren't good enough but because we weren't designed to carry all that weight. We break because we were not meant to carry so much weight. Only by seeking God's help can we not break. I actually later fixed the line and was able to hang some other light clothes. When the weight of life is too much ask God to lessen it for you. He is faithful to give us weights that don't break us.

 Its time to each ask, What weights am I carrying? Why can't I let it go and ask God to carry it for me? Is it really doing me any justice to continue carrying the weight over my shoulder?

Wishing us all a blessed Evening.

Matrimonial Bed

Where I come from, a girl during her wedding day is given a bed by her family. I came to learn it’s a sign to show that she no longer has a bed at her parents’ house. This therefore means she is expected to sleep at her husband’s house from then henceforth. But how special and significant is a matrimonial bed? Ever wondered why a husband and wife are expected to share a room and a bed for the rest of their lives when they get married? Kindly read on.

For a majority of us before they got married they had learned how to sleep alone and of course not care the positions they sleep in. However when you get married sleeping positions will affect another person. This is the first area a couple needs to learn to compromise on. When sleeping majority of us are in a harmless state. During such moments some will sleep very poorly placing their legs all over. Sleeping with such a person can become really uncomfortable and disturbing. Just as those with poor sleeping habits are innocent when asleep, it’s the same way marriage life can be.

Old habits die hard and it takes time to adjust. As you get used to poor sleeping positions you also learn to adjust yourself and still sleep peaceful, so is the case in marriage. Each person comes with their old habits and it takes time to adjust. However uncomfortable your spouse sleeps, the reason you went to bed was to sleep and it still comes your way. So however uncomfortable marriage gets the reason you formed your union should keep both parties going. It is the end result of marriage that determines how much one is willing to compromise. So before you enter into the matrimonial bed ask yourself if you will sleep regardless of how uncomfortable it gets to sleep in the same bed with your spouse.

May we all understand the significance and importance of a matrimonial bed.God bless us all.

Unity Undefiled.

Some years back, it was evident that we were divided along tribal lines. That time it didn't matter whether one is from this or that religion. During the terrorist attacks that have heat the country, divisions were almost to emerge among religions. During the days of our ancestors there were sharp division between genders; so much that it bread to the programs of Girl Child and Women Empowerment. Presently is the Youth Empowerment Programs. So i ask are all these divisions justified; Tribal, Age, Gender or Religious?

The reality on the ground is that we we'll always have differences among us. The laws of man and supernatural occurrences unify us. Effects of VAT may what differs and perhaps extended the drift between the poor and the rich. Underneath it all we have the same colour of blood. Its not about religion, tribe or poverty levels. We are one.

Whenever there has been blood appeal, it was for all people. Underneath it all we have the same colour of blood. Our common enemy are the vices that affect us as a country. Our enemies include Alshabab ,Corruption, Poverty, Tribalism.... not our brothers and sisters who we share common grounds. We should not allow the enemies to win. Let us all stand united and defeat our enemies. It is the only way we will win all the battles that face our motherland.I am proud to be Kenyan and I have no other land that I can confidently love calling my home. Let us remember we are all one. Let us stand united not divided.


May God bring us to find lasting solutions for the issues facing our county. To our leaders, may you be the force that unites us not divides us. We shall progress stronger and last longer moving together not divided along any divisions. 

#KenyansWeAreOne

Experienced Bus Driver

For some strange reason, well who am I kidding its not a strange reason, I wake up early but take too long to leave the house. Let's just say the art work I recently started doing on my face makes me take too long to leave the house. This means that as I walk to the stage I always hope and pray to find a bus waiting for me ,one that will not too long to fill up and a bus that will take the shortest time possible, to get to my drop-off point. Today was one of those days I was lucky to get a driver who is able to manoeuvre his way out of traffic. The manoeuvring however, came with many misses that left Double Favour tightly holding onto her seat. At some point I found myself scouting for safety because I felt as though the bus would topple over. Lets just say my seat mate had a moment to chuckle over my action. In the end , the good news is, I was at my work place in time despite the heavy traffic. Its not the first bus I have boarded and the driver roughly manoeuvred his way out of the traffic. In fact I came to learn that the buses whose drivers have mastered the art of beating traffic have very loyal customers. Its worth noting that there are old buses that have very loyal passengers and there are new buses that no passenger want to board during rush hour.  At one point the passenger  I sat next to during the turbulence told me there is nothing to worry because  the driver is experienced in his work and route so nothing bad would happen . Reflecting on the incidence this evening brought the lesson for today.

See friends, in my view and understanding about life, I am of the opinion that the sole-key driver of our life should be God. He knows the route He is going to take to get us where we need to be. In the course of our journey we shall experience turbulence's as God works towards getting us to our destination in proper time. Unlike the confident passenger who knows God knows the route very well we become jittery like me and try to hold on to the seat of the bus thinking it will give us the protection we need. But see friends our confidence to get to where we need to be shouldn't come from the bus we choose to board, it should come from the driver. When we allow God to take over our journey of life we not only get to our destination in time, we also arrive safely. Lets take time to ask God to be the driver in our life journey and not look at the condition of the bus we are using to get to our destination.

 

 

 

 

Reaction from an Action

 

Sometimes back I asked myself why I suffer? Why don't I get what I want at the time I want it to happen? I have searched to know why I don't seem to have control over things that are around me.

Well the truth is I have control of what is around me. This realization came to me through deep soul searching and serious meditation. Look at it this way. God created us as free beings and by being here on earth we were given power to build our own kingdoms. Most of the things that happen are a manifestation of our thoughts and actions. Let me explain.

People mine gold by digging deep into the ground and they never return the soil back to its original state. This develops vacuum points and well there has to be reorganization as the earth tries to fill up the empty space. People will use nuclear weapons and the same weapons will create weak points on earth and earthquakes will happen. People will pollute the air and acidic rain will fall and as it waters the plants ,we eat foods that were grown with polluted water hence the many diseases that befall us. Alternatively we feast on animals that have ingested polluted foods.

Another truth is that there are things we suffer from because of the actions of others. When people cut trees now the future generation will find a dry land. When we build houses on arable land we will reduce food supply in the future. More so if we don't find ways to replace the once arable land that we put up buildings on. Land is a scarce resource that never increases, it just gets depleted and needs to be managed and improved on through taking calculated steps. There are so many accidents happening these days. Some due to use of faulty vehicles , careless driving or poor roads or rush to make more money. Unfortunately there are those people who are caught up in the cycle of a reaction of another persons action.

This realization took me to a place where I taught myself to consciously watch the actions I pursue. This is because I may not get a reaction right away but somewhere in the future the reaction manifests itself. If each day I throw a piece of paper outside my house and there is nobody to clear it up, soon it will be a pile of cabbage. The papers will be blown by the wind and my environment will be dirty. However if I consciously choose to rightfully dispose my rubbish then my surrounding will be better. Not just now but also in the future to come. 

How about we all carefully examine our actions before pursuing them. If I am to say something to someone let me take time to examine that which I am about to tell them. I may say a hurtful thing to a person they will forever remember and when we meet in the future they will be more cautious around me.

It is said life is a circle where what goes around comes back around. The Bible clearly says what you sow so shall you reap. It also talks of using our young days well as there will be days when we will eat our young days during our old age. Effects of our past are real to us everyday. Lets be weary of our actions and they have reactions in the end. I pray we can all challenge ourselves to bring ourselves to a state of consciously being aware of our actions. 

 

The Truth about Enemies and Friends

In my own analysis I feel I know majority of my friends but don't know the number of enemies I have. I have come to know that at times enemies live among ones friends list. There have been stories of people being betrayed by those they considered their loyal friends. Friends who have been there to see you transition from one stage of life to another only to use what they have known over the years to destroy you.

 

Are those really the enemies and most dangerous enemies around us?

 

From my observation  have come to realise that for majority of people, friends are those that praise you. Those will be the people we want around us. People who massage our ego will become our friends very easily and fast. Majority are those we term as our friends are they that posses our good side. Those that make our dreams our reality.However when it comes to enemies, they are those that will not massage our ego. Most importantly, they are those that posses our inner dark selves.Majority of our enemies manifest our dark side hence the reason we avoid being around them. They are those people who make our fears a reality.

 

My overall interpretation of my observation is enemies and friends all relate to the thoughts we chose to have about a person. A thought determines the category that we place people around us and ourselves too. Enemies and friends from outside and inside are a manifestation of our thoughts. It is therefore important to ask ; what am I thinking about my neighbour? Would I be comfortable with them knowing what I think about them? What am I thinking about myself? Would I be comfortable if another person told me the things I tell or think of myself ?

 

Those are my sentiments. I hope that we can all make the discovery of having the right thoughts about ourselves our lifetime innovation to finding true happiness.

 

 

 

Striking Teachers;Unspoken Truths.

Teachers have for a long time now been the subject of discussion year in year out. I honestly don't remember the last time a year passed without teachers going on strike. Perhaps when they were mum they were busy consuming the bits that had trickled down after a strike. This has in many ways made me question, if paying the teachers is really the solution and best way to raise the status quo of the teachers in Kenya. Kindly note I am a professional trained teacher but not practising, not because of pay but for personal interests.When I openly make statements about the pay for teachers. I am consciously aware that my extended family has many teachers and I know this pay increase would do good to their own personal financial liquidity. But at what cost really? Is it really a long lasting solution?

 

My answer to the above question is a strong NO. If we pay the teachers our wage bill will increase further. Many may argue that the government should find the loopholes that Kenya loses its GDP to corruption but to seal the loopholes and pay teachers will not help in any way. We need to look for a solution that will benefit all the professionals and avoid a spiral effect. Let us look for the money holes in the government and use the money to reduce the cost of living. 

 

I vividly remember irrigation projects were to be started all over the country by the Jubilee Government. What is the progress of those projects? I also remember water was discovered in Northern Kenya, I am yet to know if the water was confirmed fit for human consumption and farming and if indeed it was; why is it taking so long to be utilized. As it is Kenya is busy using up its arable lands e.g Kiambu to put up buildings. There is nothing wrong with the development and changing land use, but its important for Kenya to secure new lands to farm so as to increase if not maintain food production in the country. I am sure if as a country we are able to increase our food production and cost of energy, the cost of living will go down.

 

It makes no sense to double my salary and the cost of Unga goes up five times due to increased taxes. Let us address the issues deeply not just look for quick top layer solutions that are not sustainable in the long run. We may argue political leaders have hefty pay but how hefty is that pay with the mindset of 'Wanjiku'? To a 'Wanjiku', a political leader is a walking money bag that should not be seen eating at a common food joint in peace. I am sure if we reduced the cost of living and worked on the mind set of the 'Wanjikus' the political leaders would find the terms of reducing their pay favourable.

Too Small For my Painting

Two years ago, I visited Uganda and had the opportunity to tour the Kabaka Mutesa palace. The place is very beautiful and has a very serene environment. It was a great feeling being around there, except for the policy of ladies not being allowed to tour the palace dressed in trousers. We had however been instructed before leaving our place of residence to carry a ' leso' to tie around the trouser. While sampling Ugandan history I came across a talented artist and purchased his art work. I love art display in the house and well the fact that the painting depicted African art made it more enticing to purchase.

The artist explained that he doesn't mount the art work because it becomes bulky and hence advocated I mount it myself. Two years on I finally thought of mounting it yesterday and settled for laminating the painting on a transparent paper. I carried the lamination paper but when I got home, the painting was longer than the lamination paper. I tried to look for a way in which the painting would fit on the lamination paper but it was just not possible. If I chose to use the same lamination paper it meant I destroy the painting. That didn't seem like a path I wanted to follow. I therefore decided to get a different material to mount the painting and it was actually a perfect fit. That experience came with a lesson for today.

See friends as humans, we come across various people with whom we look and hope we can walk together and they help us become better people of our original self. Like the lamination paper they are suited to work very well but not with everybody and being with them means one will lose a piece of their original self. The question thus arises, is it worth losing ones original self just to walk with them? Are there not another people one can walk with and not lose their original self? How effective and efficient is it to lose ones original self just to be in the company or association of another?

I therefore concluded that before allowing someone to be in my life, I will asses the orignial self I stand to lose and weigh its worth. Truth is there will always be a person that can work with our original self, we just become impatience and end up destroying ouselves. My painting is still intact and looks well mounted; lamination would have destroyed it.

 

Double Favor Waleopard in Reality :)

I may have the most unique outfits and look beautiful in everything I wear but I am not my clothes. I may have the most intellectual discussions but I am not the miss know it all. I may have the best smile but I am not my facial expression. I may have a doctorate degree but I am not my education. I may have curves at the right places but I am not my physique.

I am simple a soul that is searching for its happiness. The body that houses my soul should not be the only reason one is drawn to me. My material possession should not be the only reason one is drawn to me. My accomplishments here on earth should not be the only reason one is drawn to me. All these things are vanity and can end within a minute.

Appreciate the person, I am not what I have, had or was. Accept me as a soul not my body. Love me without attachment. Its not the big things done in a big way that matter. Its the small things done with a big heart that matter. Perfection is a level we all strive to attain but only God is perfect. I am flawed in many ways making me human. I shed tears making me vulnerable. I bleed making me mortal.

The joy of my living is knowing that with each waking day I am closer to my destiny and have an opportunity to write a new past. When I fall its not because I am a failure its so that I rise to another level. I am and live by the Grace of God. Its He that knew my coming into this world and knows my going out from this world. At the end of the journey my desire is to fulfil the purpose God sent me here on earth to accomplish. Not to be exalted by men but for God to be exalted by men through His deeds in my life. 

Now that is the true Reality of D.F.W (Double Favor Waleopard).

Money, Education, Spouse, Children ,House ?

Often I have heard a discussion about lady being late to get married. When exactly is the right time to be married and have kids? Is there really a right time to have a spouse or bear children? No-one is an exception, more so in the African setting. Truth be said there are those who got married and years on they are still trying to get a baby. At the same time there are those that are married with children who desire that house and car a single person owns. There is a jobless person wishing they could get money to feed their family. While there is a working person bored of eating alone each night.

The reality is all these things are earthly treasures. Be it a job, house, spouse, children....None of these things we are after in life we'll carry to the next life. In fact even the body we are so watchful of will be buried. The soul is the only thing that will go to the next life. However much we cling to the earthly pleasures they are just that ,earthly treasures.We need to realise that we were made a complete person through the soul.The body is just a house for the soul. Each of us desire to be happy and live in peace. Trying to find happiness in the earthly things is like trying to mix water and oil. Its about time we realised we are complete individuals and avoid postponing our happiness till this and that happens. Failure to which; we will forever be empty.

This is what should ring in our minds each time. With or without a spouse i am complete. With or without a house i am complete. With or without education i am complete. With or without the "normal "physical appearance i am complete. It is not my hands that complete me nor my job nor my gender. I was born complete and i should henceforth live and feel complete in every sense. 

Lets quit loving things or people with so much attachment because this often leads to living a miserable life. Those things are there to be used while here on earth but none of them will be carried forward when the soul departs from the body. Lets instead strive to purify our soul. I am not saying stop working hard for your family. I am saying don't put so much emphasis on worldly things and forget the person that really matters in all this . You not the body but the Soul. We can lie to everything even the body but never the soul. 

Those are my thought. Hope they made sense to you.

With Heels, Go up the Staircase.

Double favor loves heeled shoes. Probably  because she is vertically challenged, not complaining though. I alighted the bus this morning and just before I could go up the staircase to the bridge over to the other side, this man shouted from no where " Madam utapanda vipi kwa stairs?", Madam how will you go up the stairs? From where he was standing, there was no way I could go up the stairs in heels. He actually gave me way and went on to follow me to see if I could fall on the staircase. I found it offencive and at the same time funny so I decided not to answer him. When I was safely at the top, he commended me and  went on to say, I have mastered the art and known how to maintain balance. 

As I sat on my desk during lunch time , I reflected on the morning incidence and realised that it had a very important lesson for me. See time and time again we are surrounded by staircases we need to climb to get to the other side of life. When we approach the staircase, we find other people about to go up the stairs but instead of them focusing on their journey , they choose to look at how prepared we have come to go up the stairs.  Unfortunately for us, the bigger group that we meet preempts on our inadequacies, making us doubt if we really are cable of going up the stairs successfully. 

How we react to the preemption is what determines our ability to cross to the other side. Let us not allow doubting Thomas es to digress our focus. Truth is when you approach a staircase you have all that you need to get to the other side. You have already mastered the art of balancing the heels that you are wearing , staircase or no staircase. All you just need is confidence. I will not lie; that man made me wonder what happens if I fall on the staircase. I however kept reminding myself I have done it severally and these were my normal everyday shoes.

Confidently approach and go up the stairs and let those doubting Thomas es commend you when you complete the journey. Know your end product and it won't matter the faulty machines you find along the way.

Remembering Simba

 
Today morning as i was walking to work. I saw this black and white big dog. It had a striking resemblance of Simba; a long time childhood friend. It seemed to have something on its facial area that was bothering it. It reminded me of the time Simba went out and got hurt by other dogs. 

Today's dog was almost being hit by a car and i had to alert an oncoming car of the dog. I remembered how Simba would jump on me as he wagged his tail. I remembered how i nursed his wounds with herbal medicine that i had known cured wounds. 

When Simba got healed he was up and about wagging his tail in a playful manner. We would race with him and then he would jump on me. Unfortunately, one fateful morning, he came to me and was vomiting so badly. Someone had poisoned my friend and he was dying. I tried all I could, from taking my grandmother's milk, to save him but it was too late. Simba died in the afternoon and I held a burial ceremony for him. The Garden manager helped me dig a hole and I laid him to rest, said a prayer and put the soil back. It was a sad time not having my playmate. Good thing schools were opening so i left the village to go back to school.

Just like the dog today reminded me of my old friend Simba, so will memories of people who have been in our life be relived. There are painful memories that we would rather forget and there are happy moments that we wish to remember each time. Many say most of us find it easy to forget the good and remember the bad. When i saw the dog i smiled and remembered the good times with Simba and our last moment. We will have a moment to remember the good and bad . Its ok to remember both good and bad.

The difference comes when we let the past overwhelm our present in a negative way. Take a moment to remember and where you can ,focus on the good more. Simba was my great friend who kept me company when everyone went to till the land and I was left at home to adding firewood to cook the food (gocokereria githeri) 

Reliving the memory of Simba helped me remember that friends are there but they may not be there with me all my life. I should take a moment to appreciate people in my life because time will come when all I will have is a memory. Simba may have been a dog but he was a great friend to have. Perhaps once I have a place of my own I will keep another dog and name him Simba. Yes i love animals

I take this chance to appreciate you for reading ; God bless you.

The trouser doesn't fit

 

Sometimes back I decided to try out a trouser I wanted to wear the following day to work. I had gotten a new top and needed to find a matching skirt or trouser to go match it. When I wore the trouser and tried zipping it ,it couldn't. That automatically confirmed my horizontal growth. It was time to see my tailor or hit the gym or dancing class.

Today morning, when I tried the same trouser (it fits well now), I reflected on the events of the past. I thought of our expansion in life. We are not the person we were many years back. Whatever we feed on each day expands us in the positive or negative. If we feed on negative thoughts we expand backwards with impossibility in our dreams. If we feed on positive thoughts we expand forward with possibilities in our dreams. 

At the same time I also reflected on being able to return to our original self. Though we may lose our original size and dreams perhaps due to wrong mentality or bad company, its never too late to find ourselves again. It may take time and perhaps we will have tough choices and incur pain along the way but truth is its possible to regain lost glory, vision or a relationship. Where there is commitment to make it work and to learn from past mistakes, nothing is impossible.

In what direction are you expanding? Can you deal with the effects of the direction you are expanding? What will you do about your expansion? What are you willing to do to regain yourself and all that you may have lost in the past that wasn't worth losing?

Think about it my friend.

The Costly Assumption in the Waiting Room

Sometimes back I was unwell and put on medication. I was to take my medication for some time so as to take away that which was ailing me. During that time, I was a student at the university so I would visit the university students' clinic. Students day to see that particular doctor used to be Friday and he would also go to the staff clinic on Tuesday. Since my medication couldn't last me till Friday i called my doctor and asked to see him that Tuesday. I first had to go to the student clinic to request they get my file and take it to the staff clinic . They took the file out and i was asked to go to the staff clinic they would send someone with my file.

I went as advised sat down waiting for the doctor to arrive. It was one long wait as the doctor was coming an hour past the time he had asked me to be there. When he came i followed him and didn't bother to wait for the names on the files to be read out. I was so sure they had brought my file. Patients went in one after the other but my name was not being called out. When some patients complained that their file was missing, i also asked the nurse to check my file. I had waited for over 2hrs to get my medication so i stormed in. Sure enough my file wasn't there. Someone had not done their duty and made me wait in-vain. I would have been long gone had they done their work right. Lucky for me ,the doctor agreed to give me my medication without my file. And off i went to make dinner.

Today I choose to reflect on the incidence and how it applies to my real life.I looked at how many of us have been so trusting that people will do the right thing only to wait in line in vain. This mainly applies in relationship we become too trusting but the people we trust are busy not doing the things that benefit us. They make us wait in line in vain. However they really aren't to blame its our assumptions and our too trusting nature that is to blame. Our rush to get what we want without confirming our files are there is where we go wrong. We assume we know them too well. All the same all is not lost, we can save some time for ourselves.

 

Its time we storm in and do the right thing for ourselves. No waiting in line will help us. The sooner we take action the more we will be off to do other things that matter. Had i not inquired about my file i would have sat there in vain. Quit waiting and act if you are not hearing your name. Its probably because you took the wrong steps and need to correct it. Until we take action we will continue to wait in vain.

Think about it my friend.

May God bless us all and give us grace to be taking the right initial first step.

From an empty tank to an Overflow

There seems to be a water shortage at my place. I was used to having water when i get to the house and in the morning when i wake up. My tank was almost drying out. So yesterday night when i woke up and found water in the tap i connected the pipe then went back to sleep. I figured sleeping on the couch i would not sleep totally. When i woke up water was pouring out from the tank. Yap the tank had filled to the brim and was overflowing . This called for a past midnight cleaning of the house, talk of interrupted sleep.

Today morning i reflected on the events of the night. From an empty tank to an overflowing tank. In my view,some of us behave like the empty tank; the minute we start feeling we have an overflow and go causing so much damage around. From a person with no money to a person with money we develop so much pride that it causes those around us pain. We are without a partner the minute we get one that truly loves us we take them for granted. We are without jobs the minute we get a job we take the job we have for granted.....

We forget we were once an empty tank and its through a connection that we got filled.It was through emptying another tank somewhere that we got filled. We forget the journey we took and the people that were with us on our way up. We forget that soon water will be drawn from the tank and we will need a refill.

Lets be careful not to take those around us for granted. Think about it my friends. They say it takes years to build a house but a day to bring it down.

May we all have a beautiful day as we reflect on the emptiness we once had that has now been filled. Have we forgotten our journey up?

Get into the Dance Floor

Grace has always wanted to learn how to dance salsa. Fortunately or unfortunately the time to actualize my desire seemed to evade me. That was until recently when a friend hooked me up with a trainer. I went for the introductory lessons and wanted to learn more. I was given a break down of the cost and settled on a communal class training. I figured its a pocket friendly deal and well an opportunity to meet and make new friends. The class happens every Sun another more convenient reason to settle for it.

In these classes they have theme after parties and well yesterday's was African attire. I had a two hours training then sat for the after party. That was when the real dancing began. First it began with some dance moves then followed the communal dancing. Now that was when i felt like a wet blanket. The people dancing seemed to know how to do the moves so well that i just sat and watched them wondering why i was there. As i was talking to myself a gentleman approached me and asked me why i wasn't dancing. I went on to tell him i was a first timer and didn't know the moves. This gentleman had been in the classes too and had seen the steps we had been taught. He looked at me and gave me a questioning smile of , So?

He wondered how sitting down was helping me practice what i had learned. According to him its through practicing with those that seemed to be experts that i will become an expert. Not entering the dance floor would only make me feel like an outsider. What he said made sense. Shockingly on the dance floor, i got to dance with people who guided me and made me feel comfortable even when i messed up. They reminded me that they too came as learners before they were able to move as they did.

Today morning i reflected on the events of yesterday evening to real life. I thought of the many times we know what we want but fail to get into the field to actualize our desires. We chose to play safe on the bench; watching feeling sorry for ourselves while admiring those that have what we want. We forget that everything has a starting point. We forget that by practicing we become better. Be it in relationship, career, self improvement, investment, education....

So i ask, How long are you going to sit and watch without getting into the field of learning? If not you to go after that which you desire to learn who will? Think about it my friend.

Walepoard got better in the field and even dreamed she was dancing like a pro. I plan to keep dancing till i learn. So lets go dancing into our desires by getting into the learning field.

May God bless us all and grant us the courage to get onto the dance floor.
