Vulnerability is all about being Human

Take off the mask. Put your guard down. Enough about hiding your insecurities. Today I want to talk about vulnerability. Yes! Vulnerability.


I have found that many of us look at vulnerability as a weakness and we all dread the thought of being open to people about those things we are not proud of doing or the things we are still doing that we never want people to find out about us.

Is It For God's Glory?

The morality debate is currently trending and has been trending for some months now in the country. All of us have our own definitions and perception when it comes to differentiating and understanding what is really right and wrong. We can defend and justify our actions and behaviors to others with all the energy in us. 

Today’s society has an added advantage compared to the society in the seventies and eighties. Technology has opened our eyes and ears to the world. People are more open-minded to a lot of things from relationships to accepting and embracing other people’s cultures.

Today I want to throw a tantrum on behalf of myself and others who are tired of social demands and expectations constantly being thrown at their faces.
 
Every person’s life is a different script according to God’s purpose and will for our life. But  to most human beings we are all are expected to have the same script. Society expects you to go by its rules expectations and demands.  My plea to all of you out there is to Just let me fill out my script.  

Compare and contrast is one of the major causes of stress and depression in this modern world. Stress and depression are among the leading causes of suicidal deaths in Kenya and the world.

Nobody Owes You Anything

Every day I feel amazed by the life lessons I learn whether intentionally or through experience. One of the lessons I have found so liberating is knowing that Nobody owes me anything. Sound harsh but it is true. You might find yourself walking tall every day and feeling entitled to some privileges and favors. This is the best root of disappointment and devastation.

A Friend in Need Vs A Friend When in Need

I have been thinking about this popular saying, "A friend in need is a friend in deed". Sure there is no greater moment to appreciate friendship than when you are in your lowest moment. I mean, someone who stands with you during adversity can stand by you at all times. But surely, does it mean adversity is the real measure of friendship? What happens when your friend is not available in your hour of need?

Golden Friendship in the Digital Age

As a young girl, my mother taught me a song on friendship that said; Make new friends but keep the old, one is silver and the other gold. This is a song that I have carried in my heart for the last 2 decades and it has helped me never to be disappointed with friendship in this digital age. 

Maintaining friendships with me has required deliberate effort more so in the years after my tertiary education.
