Things you should never stop doing for yourself......

Marc and Angel inspired me to share this piece, This is Ess and Sydney Poulton inspired me to do the stock. This three bloggers have been a really awesome and good source of inspirational in my blog articles and life in general. Truly,writing just like photography is an art that touches many, a single article just like a single capture that tell a thousand words untold. What is that desired dream,action,practice...you name it that you have wanted to do since forever ? Well,here are some of the things you should never stop doing to yourself. Take stock because the sooner you heed those desires,the sooner you move to the next level!From Marc and Angel: Never stop stretching and improving yourself. – Always dream and shoot higher than you think is possible.  Do not bother trying to be better than your peers or predecessors.  Try to be better than you ever knew YOU could be. Never stop listening to your own inner voice. – The unhappiest folks are those who care th...

African Beauty

The bald head or short hair was not fashion until recently. Short  hair with a touch of some colour like red, white and other unique colours has made African ladies kill it in a 'fashion kind of talk'. To them hair does not define them at all but their deeds tells it all. With Kenya being on the map for an Oscar Award from our very

They will never know – Dying Dreams!

I came across two architects arguing on a final draft to present to their client. The two architects who work on a partnership basis were trying to come up with the best designs to show their client for approval. The argument was based on the play ground area. One thought that reducing the play ground area and doubling it as a parking area would be the best plan. The other thought drawing a plan that had a playground and a parking area separate was just the best thing. I agreed with the latter. In our current society, games are not as engaging, therapeutic and fun as those good gone years. The digital child game is confined to the digital gadgets. This is more common with the urban children. With the high rise of demand of rental houses, little consideration is taken to leave a space for a play ground in the squeezed city environment. There is rarely any space left for the children in the urban setting to even kick a ball or even play hide and seek. The s...

‘nOT sO WORTH bOYS’

I will go straight to the point on this one. I am a girl…nope a lady,Yes a lady! Are you doubting?Doesn't matter anyway.They are gentlemen and yes they are boys !!!You want to vent? Allow me to do it first,please. Ignorance and greed will come to kills us one of this days. Starting with the poachers that are draining the heritage that I so want to be proud to explain to my unborn; and to those men that cannot keep it in themselves. They sure know how to please with little flattery meaningless sweet words and I thank them for that. We offer the listening ear but you don’t know how useless we find it. What happened to honesty and the African friendship of mingling socially freely with no strings attached ?               Anyway,when you look at the base of your ring finger and keep on touching it as if the finger has just been cloned we see that. When you insist on ‘my place’ always and not ‘your place’ a...

Autism is categorized as a developmental disability known to cause social,communication and behavioral challenges. It can sometimes be detected at the age of 18 months or even younger. The impairments involved with autism include repetitive communication and restricted mindset with a limited imagination. These lead to delay in language and social growth. The behavior and activities for kids with autism is not the same as the 'normal kids'. Children with Autism develop at different rates in different areas of growth. The disabilities are lifelong though through careful training, therapy sessions and sensitive support an autistic can be improved. The impairments maybe associated with cognitive disabilities.   Autism is a lifelong condition, and the available, necessary supports and treatment change as people  move through major life phases. With the rising diagnostic rate of 1 in 68 ,  it is important that we anticipate the pressing need for supports an...

For His Eyes Only....

Eight years sounds like a life time. To me it is just like the blink of an eye. It is funny how time flies so fast.He was a soul mate,father,brother,friend,colleague,mentor to many. My little sister was barely a year old to even know what was happening then.She has his qualities of one who cannot be put down by words alone. When kids talk out loud of what their father's have done for them,she defends herself by saying her father is in the states. Even without a father figure she never questions why...but lives every moment as if he is right there. For the three beautiful ladies we hold special memories,we put in mind that the Owner of the Vineyard picks only the ripe fruits. Here is to you Daah-dee, Just like the blanket you bought me, When i barely knew my name, Daah-dee is what i called you, Rocking me in your arms, It was the safest place i ever had, Years later....you are gone, This journey seems to be long, I wish you are not so far away, I miss you terribly,...
