How do you get to value the gift given

is it right for the gift giver to ask you on the use of the gift given to you?

Let me start with these two short stories.

Once upon a time there were two friends who used to live together as family. One day Andrew told Adrian that he will be taking a trip to the US. Adrian was so happy for his fellow. So the day came and Andrew left for the US. Days and weeks and months passed, Andrew remembered his friend Adrian and sent him a gift. He sent him a very beautiful woolen jacket. Adrian received the jacket and was so happy. After two years of Andrew’s stay in the US he decided to come back home. The day he got back he saw his friend and was happy to be back home again. He then asked Adrian, where is the jacket I sent you as a gift? In a glimpse of suprise Andrew saw the jacket at the dog’s kennel it being used to give warmth to those dogs. Andrew got disappointed and said nothing about it and he went inside.

I hope we getting something here

Story 2

In the middle of the great lahulu forest lived a family, a husband and his pregnant wife in a very big tree house. It did not take time, the wife gave birth to a handsome baby boy(gift of life). They were so happy to have the baby with them. One night while they were sleeping they were attacked by the dangerous animal forests. The husband tried his best to keep his family but he failed, he was eaten and the wife too but the baby survived the attack. After that night of the attack, very early in the morning there were hunters who were passing by and heard the baby cry,they asked themselves where is that cry coming from, when they looked up they saw a tree house. Two of the men climbed in and saw the little baby crying and helpless. They took him and decided to stay with him, raised him to a very strong young man. After few years the boy started acting strange, he suddenly turned to a robber,robbing people’s things in the community where he was raised and in the end he got killed with angry people in that society.

What do we get to learn from these two stories.

The first story tells us about a woolen jacket given to Adrian and it was turned to a warmth keeper for dogs. Try keeping yourself in Andrew’s shoes, if it were you how would you feel? The expense and the time you used to get him the jacket was never valued.

The second story, the baby boy who was born was given a gift of life but where did he end? Being a robber. Ghaaii this hurts. You are given life and get to misuse it. The good book says that God created us so as we can worship Him, apart from that He created us to take possession of everything that’s on this Earth. If He gifted us life to do so, then why we turn to be bad people? Why we turn to be people who are disgrace to families, society and to the whole world? You are given life to live, enjoy and use what you are given to bless others.

Get to ask yourself today, do you get tot value the gift you are given? Let’s get to treasure what’s gifted for us,as we do so we get to open more doors for more goods to come and we get to bless the hearts of those who give the gifts to us.

BElieve YOUrself(Be You)

fruits

“You are a single product in this life never want to live somebody else’s life”

in taking something new we believe we have to dig deep and give the best of ourselves towards the new stuff, its okay but I find it unnecessary.

we loose things from our first encounter with it and wonder why we lost it while we thinking that we tried our best to keep it.

who told us we have to try so hard impressing and try so hard becoming something we are not used too?

we end up messing up on first encounters believing that we have to impress everything and everyone that we come across too.

the real fruit is mostly found on the inside you have to peel it so to eat it, but before reach a stage of eating it you should let it be. what I mean  is that there is a period of not peeling of a period of just watching it on the outward level.

not every encounter is a show off encounter, not every meet is a 1o1 session to be perfect.

if Michael Jackson could try being a different version than he’s singing career then we would have not know him. Same as Muhammad Ali..

no one is perfect stop being someone else or stop trying so hard to fix and fit in someone else story. Never try so hard being there in a different version that are not the normal you.

NF says the real you is when no one is watching,

it’s not hard to be how when no one is watching that is the way we should be and never embrace something that we are not. Am not saying wr shouldn’t try new things but what I’m implying is that we should address our situations/problems as we are  not as we think people want us to address it.

Fid Q says we fail because we address stuff as we are or how we thought we should instead of addressing them as they are , things addresses as they are never complex

One word to pick on this is that never try to rip yourself just to show yourself. just be you the real you, yes you as you and not as the way they want you to be seen.

The least you could do…

What if that thing you have been looking down at means something to someone?

What if those ideas you don’t open up about are the ones that the world needs right now?

What if that person you have been long hiding inside a shell is the one that you need in order to make the changes you need in your life?

Well, it’s okay to feel insecured but it’s not okay to let our insecurities stop us from living even that least best of our times, because these least things that we always look down at and stop doing everytime in search for the bigger things, are the bigger things we need to achieve first.

In climbing a ladder every step has a reason for why it is there, those who have once done climbing are a witness to that skipping one or two may lead to change but usually with too much pain in the thighs than how it would have been if the steps were followed in order.

To every challenge there is a door leading to a brilliant solution and even a brighter future. The least you could do is to take a single step every time and collect the little treasures you find on the way. Life is just an integration;the little things we have,the craziest memories we keep and the bitter lessons we have learned all together. So every moment is worthy it, and every second is that perfect time we have all long been waiting for.

The least you could do is to do that least thing at your maximum best. And that is just the greatest favor you could ever do for yourself.

In all these doings crown yourself; not by only resting on your laurels but also by sharpening your weapons for another war is at hand. Well by working hard you eventually get to be the boss and work for twelve hours a day.

Give it a thought by taking action.

Bless up!

As Love As Hate…

“In a time where you have to give something, giving nothing is also something to be giving”

Few weeks back I was sent a writing challenge and it was all about writing about something you loved as if you hate it.

Photo credits : @reality_on_us

At first I was in a puzzle, I couldn’t understand the challenge so I had to ask the one who sent the question to ellaborate more for me.

Well up to now i haven’t written anything yet because I find it weird writing what i love as i hate it.

How many times are we like this challenge, we do act like we hate what we love. Its similar to pretence but I don’t want to put it that way. We apply this formulae in alot of ours stuffs to a point that we are seen as dramatic people.

Let me put it this way, yesterday was Mother’s day ( Happy belated mothers day mothers out there.), I saw alot of people posting nice words about their moms, I even got some new sweet words from them. To some it was genuine to others was just another social media post

What I am trying to say is even in relationship we don’t acknowledge directly the partner we have we are acting as kid and putting unnecessary drama to it, to an extent it turns to hate . The thing you once love turns to hate.

Am not an expert in relationship and maybe the words today wont hit you up due to the represent of it, but if i got to get something through to you is this. You can’t love it then you acting as you hate it, hoping the other side should interpret your drama as love, sometimes the hate stands out more outwardly more than the love and you may end up loosing it all.

“Bless up”

Pay It Foward

Reflection.
Do good and the good will come back to you.

One day a mother and her son were having good time together, suddenly the mother started coughing and having a hard time in breathing, the son knew what she was suffering from (Asthma) but did not know how to help his mother because she had no any inhaler with her. The boy got out and went to a pharmacy so that he could help his mother get an inhaler. He reached there and found himself with no money. Remembering his mother’s situation back home he was not left with choice but to steal one of the inhalers that were being sold in that pharmacy. The seller saw him stealing and started chasing him, when they were out in a Chase the seller finally caught him in a corner and banged him on a wall so hard, he started questioning him, the kid knowing his mother’s condition tried fighting back. Then appeared a woman and asked what’s the chaos all about and the seller said that the kid stole an inhaler from his pharmacy and the kid replied I have no money I’m just trying to help my mom she’s sick, she’s dying. That woman looked at the kid and asked the seller how much the inhaler cost, the seller told her the amount. The woman dug into her purse and gave out the amount that was mentioned and the seller left. The kid was so surprised by the action that the woman did and he had to ask her “you do not know me neither have we met before,why did you help me?”. The woman looked at the kid and gave him a piece of paper and told him go help your mother. When he reached home, he gave his mother the inhaler and the mother got saved from the situation. The kid went in his room and opened that piece of paper and he saw these words PAY IT FORWARD.

Years passed and the kid grew up into a doctor. One day a patient came and had no enough money to pay for the treatments. The one attending to the patient told her that “we can’t help you so you just go back and look for somebody who can give the help”. Over a sudden that kid (currently the doctor) came inside that very room and told the one attending the patient “I’ll be in charge of everything just leave it all to me”. The patient was then helped,given a room and a bed to sleep so as she could be treated. After a while the doctor(kid) went inside the room where the patient lied and asked about her wellbeing. She was so thankful for what the doctor did to her. But she was in a doubt and had to ask why did you help me? The doctor smiled and took a paper from his coat and gave it to the woman it was written “PAY IT FORWARD”.

This woman was the very same lady who helped the doctor the other day back in time.

What you reap is what you sow. Just as the Newton’s third law state “For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction”. Just do good and the good will definitely come back to you.

Bless up.

We as Trees..

Ever wanted to be born in a different family, region or country than the one you are in right now? Have you ever wished you could apply for a change pf parents?

Photo credits: unsplash.com

Some of us love our environment and we would do campaigns to influence people to plant trees and preserve the natural vegetation.

If you are one of them well and good, i personally appreciate your efforts but today am raising a topic from that side of view.

In order for a tree to survive or to grow it needs water or moisture, soil and also sunshine helps with the photosynthesis which is the process of making its own food. I’ll not go in deep into the biology but this is the basic concept.

Now also we need all the similar facts for growth we need water in terms of knowledge, this will allow us to not only develop but to get off the seed of ignorance. when we are watered as in terms of acquiring knowledge we will grow.

Soil is the environment that we are the parents, friends and relatives they play the role of soil as in trees.

Sunshine in this perspective let me give the opportunities around us, sunshine help the tree grow also opportunity help to move from one point to another, level to level and so forth. grab all opportunity that arise daily. Because if a tree fails to get sunshine it remains the same level.

After a tree is full grown its either used for shade and also fruits and oxygen provision also accumulation of carbon dioxide in the daylight and oxygen at night.

After we grow its not only useful for us but also we are useful to the surrounding too. we can be a source of replica of ourselves where we train others to be as us.

But let also know that when we are too much good for the environment the surrounding will try to cut us down and make us into other products

Well the above are facts that are well known and now some facts that are known but not taken into consideration seriously.

The tree or the seed that brings the tree doesn’t choose were it should grow, it accepts the ground and try to fight so it can grow.

The good book once said of a man who wanted to plant seed on the farm and some seeds failed to get into the good soil while some seeds made it to the good soil some were eaten by birds, some went into thorns.

The concept here is the seed has to realize that its of great potential even if is at the stage of seed or a tree and if it realizes that its the first stage to fight more to grow more

Same as us we can’t choose were to be born. that is why earlier the question was did you ever wanted to change where you were born, the family you are into ?

A tree has to deal with the condition that has been planted on. It cant complain that ooh i have been planted in no good condition, i can’t grow better. but it still grow

It does not need you to complain but it only require you to shift your mind into what you are surrounded with and then just work with…

Its Not Permanent

Ever plan to do something and when in the process of doing it nothing is moving, have you ever had that one perfect plan laid out for you in your head and in turn to perfect it still doesn’t go through ?

Photo c

I know you have taken series of exams, test, assignment and more papers that were all done in a certain hall.

Few days back I went to my status and posted “what is the name you give to the place you did the exams?
The answers were restless and they were super amazing but also I learnt something…

What I wanna share to you is that in life everything is like an exam you are given a set of exams and boom your in a cage that is given to you a worker is given that work as an exam and the workplace is the hall that is given.  a driver is given an exams to drive without accident and reach the destination and the car is the hall where exams are done.

Now i know you have got this pictured but add this to your imagination its not the hall but its the exams that you have done. We have to learn that not all exams are the same but know that you can be in the same hall with your neighbor. And still the neighbor could be of no help, so in life you have to see that when you are in a situation you have to own it, it’s yours and there is no a Better way to fight it if you don’t take the initiative to fight it. Never complain when you don’t get help because each person has his ot her own exams to answer, challenge to react too.

The challenges you face in the exams  are the same as the ones that you fae in reality, the exams were designed to offer you a glimpse of what to expect in the real world. The fact you can panic and also fail to do anything in  the exam room is the same as what you can do in real life, when trouble hits and hits you bad its not time to panic nor stuck as a paralysed person you should collect your self, settle down and gather strength because its all that you gat the exams (challenges ).

With time involved everything else is temporary

David Benedict Zumbo

In life every situation you see is not permanent so lets not waste time thinking of a temporary situation but be of attention to it and learn what lesson it holds …

Sweep In…

Good day to you.  hope this finds you well, after what the world is going through i hope you are holding up good. in times like this is at when our faith and stability is tested be strong and keep the faith up…

This morning after along time at home without doing anything i decided to go outside the yard and try sweeping it up. I know that we all have once or very often sweep the yards

Photo credits: unsplash.com

What I have come to notice is that you can have a portion of yard that is yours and the other can be your neighbors portion and all can be dirty. we can take this act in two portions from the single side view and the other is multiple side view.

SINGLE SIDE VIEW
This view I want you to imagine as the  fallen grass and other waste as the objects that hinders your smile and happiness the baggage that you carry that hinders you to be seen as the real you. sweeping them makes you nourish and grow as the way it should be. Here am talking about the aftermath after the sweep nevertheless take consideration the tools that are used to sweep ( it can be friends and hobbies that keeps up to make sure your form goes back into place, in terms of friends they are ready to sacrifice there wellbeing as the sweep gets worn out just to make sure you’re clean and keep on nourished. This is a great sacrifice and you should acknowledge them because they are always there and ready to sweep you over and over again.  

MULTIPLE SIDE VIEW
The tools (friends that sweep you up when you are full of grudge and other baggages that life throws at you they are there ) just ready to sweep your portion but remember your yard once swept will be clean and the difference between your yard and the next yard close to you will be seen. What am implying is that you were in a situation that you were helped by a friend now its your time not to take their sacrifices for GRANTED  but cherish and you be a sweeping Brush to your neighbor. Never be satisfied just because you’re out of your baggage that doesn’t mean your neighbor should stay that way too..

All in all life is just life and you can’t sweep all the yards out there and also people around you wont be able to sweep all your fallen grasses on you but when you get few people that makes or even just start sweeping you should stand up and be of help to. Help not only to your self but also to the people around you. .

The Player Outside

let me run this by you real quick. Ever been in a competitive game against an opponent (friend) and you only see one way to play but then comes a person outside the game and says there are plenty of choices to go through more than the option you had ?? if not please keep staying with me so I show you the point. If yes smile and then let us proceed as I run this by you…

Most of times and i mean very often we think that in anything we face there is a way to oversee it, i don’t deny that but what am trying to say as you are going through hardship or a challenge in your life yes you may have a way to oversee it but there is always a new view or side view to it that a person that’s not facing the same challenge can see and offer a lot of possible ways to go through the box that you are in ..

Life can be a game and as most of us may take the game not seriously and i am here to ask you to change the serious perception of life and let it be a source for you to learn and move forward without a fuss ..

how can this be achieved? well i believe first we should lower our pride and accept the fact that there is always an easy way to do things and more effective also that sometimes our way of doing things are less effective and we don’t know everything. I firmly believe that when we drop our pride and just take a turn and start listening to people around this game we call life, get involved with people who offer help we will learn a lot and face the challenge we have in a tonne of solutions.

Also giving the room for the saying of thinking outside the box sink in. we all sometimes think that when we are in a game we are suppose to focus inside and give it our hundred to it, well life is a game and I really think in our game that is Life we should give room for us to pause focusing inside the box and then allow ourselves to take few steps back and then just thinking of the box…

There is a saying that states that it’s easy to talk to strangers than family, meaning that we open up easily to people that have no ties to us because we feel that we won’t be judged and I can say most of our relationship die not because love is not present but there is judgement. am not here to talk about either relationships or judgement for am not experienced. But am here to tell you all about the impact of socialization when we open up to a person its easy to get help because some people outside may be able to think outside the box.

In the end am a firm believer that all of our problems are solved but its not a must to be solved by ourselves but when we open the door to external help there is a guarantee that our problems will be solved and yes there will be criticism but what is critics behind a troublesome problem? take the leap of faith and trust that most of our problems are solved when shared…

And through drug addict the meeting that they have been proven that at a range of 78-88% that helps a lot of people this is because you are not alone passing that problem out there, there are people who have already passed it and some already have the way out. so we just have to listen.

Fame Vs Changes

Fame Vs Changes

When at a young age did you ever wanted to be a leader or did you want to be a game-changer? Did you imagine a position that will make you in a manner of making changes to your society? Have you ever sat down and think that

Position nor fame can grant you to make a difference… but health and the will to make a difference can.

How many are leaders and they don’t make a difference??? and how are not leaders and still make a difference ?? The ability to make a change comes from inside to the outside not outside to go inside…

Have you ever been with an idea a little spark inside of you that you know straight up when you offer them out to the general public there will be an impact made and through your idea many more can be inspired ??

Now did you do it or hesitated ? if you did that’s great if you didn’t what happened ? why did you hesitate ?

Was the fact that you are not a leader and you are not influential, was it ??

Most of us we think that position or influence is the key to make changes or difference but they are accelerators to make changes but in reality, it’s not. You don’t need the power to make a change you need the right reasons.

One wise person was once asked what will he need to be the change and make the difference that he wants to see in the society and he did not respond with leadership, but he said ” I only pray for health” the man knows and its a time for us to know to that we need only health and the will to do and be the difference we want to see around us.

For the world is awaiting the manifestation of your inborn, unseen characters let them out don’t wait to be a successful person or a leader to do so.
