Optimist

A River flows across many obstacles, when it meets Rocks, it never negotiates with them, it creates it's own way and flows on. It finds trees, thorns, it flows on without negotiations. It is so Powerful that people build Bridges to cross it, when it floods, it carries those who underestimate it mercilessly. Don't negotiate with your obstacles. By faith create your own way and flow on and the Almighty God will give you strength and courage. The happiness of your life  depends on the quality of your thoughts. Your mind is a magnet, If you think of blessings,  you  attract blessings; and if you think of problems, you  attract problems. Always cultivate good thoughts and always remain positive and optimistic. Train your mind to see the good in everything. Positivity is a choice. Continue to flow despite obstacles.

Bring smile unto someone's face, show love,reach out to less fortunate,sit with them,chat with them,let them share their experiences with you, you may not have much to give them but listen to them,appreciate them,thank them. Do this because we are all humans irrespective of who we are or what we posses. Someday in life we shall remember mostly what we did to others,it will give us sense of living,it will give us strength to go through life and a real meaning of life. The little things you do to others count much,and this things are very cheap like smile,helping them in a ceremony by assigning yourself a task,being with them is all what they need. If you don't go where people are nobody will come to you. You will drink tea alone every morning from January to December because you have never dared to drink in someone's place. Life has a meaning if something's are shared. Have everything in life without people and you have nothing but have people who cares you,love you,...

Single story is having one story about someone or a place. When one negative side of a  story is told over and over again makes people believe that its true. None of us is made of a single story,we are sum of many stories which makes us who we are, but when someone repetitively refer us to that one story which we failed, is absurd. Though we felled down then but we dusted ourselves off and we are now better than then, we are stronger and happier. We learned from what we went through, improve our weakness and now we are better persons than yesterday. Yes there are those times we were struggling to make both ends meet, and do you know what, we managed. There were those times you heard of us facing difficulties but waded through and came out victoriously. We are no longer where you left us, we have moved, we crossed that full river by Gods grace and now we are in the other side. We are confronting day to day challenges of life but we are certain that we are going to win. We are...

I have discovered that love doesn't guarantee the success of a relationship. Love cannot help you stick to one person all years round, and on the other hand, cheating isn't always a product of not loving your partner. In fact, loving someone doesn't guarantee not falling in love with someone else. Relationships work out mostly because of our head not our heart. It works out because of our emotional maturity, empathetic intelligence and self-discipline, because time will come when you'll see more beautiful, handsome, romantic, intelligent, sexy, rich, curvy and God fearing people than the one you are in a relationship with. In those times, love will not help you; self-control will help you, emotional intelligence will come to your rescue and commitment will keep you going. With those characteristics, no matter how you feel for someone else, the person you are committed to will rank first in your life. You think happily married people don't see better people th...

Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don't see yourself. By: Edmund Lee

Forgiveness There is no perfect family. We do not have perfect parents,we are not perfect. We do not marry a perfect person or we do not have perfect children.We have complaints from each other.We are constantly disappointed. There is no healthy marriage or healthy family without the exercise of forgiveness. Forgiveness is vital to our emotional health and spiritual survival. Without forgiveness, the family becomes an arena of conflict and a fortress of evil.  Without forgiveness, the family becomes sick.  Forgiveness is the asepsis of the soul, the purification of the spirit and the liberation of the heart. He who does not forgive does not have peace in his soul or communion with God. Evil is a poison that intoxicates and kills. Keeping heartache in your heart is a self-destructive gesture. It's autophagy.  Those who do not forgive are physically, emotionally and spiritually ill. For this reason, the family must be a place of life and not a place of death; a pl...

The late king of my community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who made a mistake. One of the servants gave an opinion which was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs. The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king agreed. In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next ten days. The guard was baffled but agreed, and the servant started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, bathing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them. When the ten days were over, the king ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs for his punishment. When he was thrown in, we were all amazed to see the ravenous dogs only licking the feet of the servant! The king, baffled at what he was seeing, said, ”What h...

I’ve lived well past the 20 year mark in my life, but those first twenty years of my life were full of life lessons that I carry with me every single day. Sometimes I may not have understood these things in the moment because I was too young to understand what was really going on. Some of these lessons weren’t even things being shown to me at the time at all, but looking back, all these lessons come through loud and clear. 1 year old Starting well isn’t nearly as important as finishing well. My early life was a mess, and my parents were trying to figure a lot of things out, but where I came from didn’t need to determine where I was going. 2 years old Nothing can steal your destiny. As a gifted child who excelled well beyond the knowledge and wisdom of other two-year olds, I wasn’t afforded an environment that many gifted children had to thrive. You don’t have to look any further than your favorite world changer, like Steve Jobs, to see tha...

  1. Remind yourself that worrying doesn’t stop things happening. Things will happen – or not happen –anyway. 2. Recognise that “What ifs” don’t usually help with problem solving. It’s better to use logic, and brain storm for solutions. Take control of your emotions by using rational thinking. 3. Motivate yourself by something other than worrying. Take a break and do something fun, and then go back to your work again. That positive approach will reap more benefits. 4. Face your fears – and do the things that you worry about. The thought is often much worse than the actual thing you fear. 5. Ask yourself “What’s the worst thing that could happen?” Then, “What are the chances that it will happen? Then “Will you survive it, if it happens, in the end?” Usually, that helps to move us from an extreme and irrational way of thinking to a more realistic, and reasonable way if thinking. 6. Teach yourse...

Sometimes you wonder why you experience big challenges in your life but I want you to know that they are proportional to your level. High level people do not face low level challenges . It’s the tallest trees that suffer the most wind. In a war they target the soldier who has the biggest weapon. In football they focus on marking the best player. The devil will attack you because he knows how powerful you are. Remember that whatever God allows you to go through he knows that you have the capacity to withstand it and come out stronger . Challenges are like steps of a ladder, each time you overcome them you go to the next level. I would rather face challenges as I go to a higher level than stay at a lower level without challenges. The bible: 1 Cor 10:13......And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear When challenges come.. Stay strong in faith knowing that God will see u through.

The Bible says it is all vanity. Today you are rich, tomorrow you are poor.Today you want to get married tomorrow you are divorced.Today you are so cute, tomorrow you are so ugly lying on that hospital bed. Today you are looking down on people, tomorrow you are looking up to people. Today you are saved, tomorrow you are backslidden. Today you sleep hungry tomorrow you are dinning with kings. In life, what goes around comes back around. Therefore live life one step at a time. Love people. Treat people right. Be humble. Remember you can be on top today and tomorrow you are down there. Also remember, no one is perfect, therefore stop judging people because you are not God. Learn to forgive and move on. Riches, wealth, good life, good marriages, beautiful family, nice homes, nice cars, good health, good life, good business, investments, jobs and good careers we have today are all vanity. God bless you all.

If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day,'' It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task, and another, and another. And by the end of the day that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed.

There was a certain wealthy man who lived in a certain town he had just a son, when the son grew up he wanted to take over the father's business. Then, his father gave him a condition that he must fulfil, before he can handover the multi-billion dollar business to him. Earn 10,000 dollars and show me the money. Seated close to an oven relaxing, his son sought help from his mother and brought the money to his father and claimed he worked for it. His father collected the cash from him and threw it into the oven, and the two watched the oven until the whole cash was burnt to ashes. He told his son to simply  go on and work for the money and bring it to him.  Thereafter, the boy's mother again gave him another $10,000 and told the boy to wait for some time, disguise and look worn out before seeing his father. When he eventually met his father with the money for the second time, the old man was at the same spot close to the oven. The man took the cash and again threw it into t...

The future of Kenya is up to Kenyans. Whether we put in systems which grow and prospers Kenyan generation or burry our heads in the sand and let fate dictate our nation. We need to reexamine our Pilar's of economy from infrastructure to technology. Some of our technologies are dated back to 80s when Kenyan population was 20milion, roads, education systems,rail transport,our health facilities and agriculture and agri Machineries, do they conform to the demands of this age and time? Do they meet the requirements of now. I applaud education sector,the change in curriculum was long overdue, an education system which puts learners in the same pot and those who don't fit to the pot the system condemn them as failures as early as eight years in classroom or form four was failure. Education ought to be basic and every child ought to access it but with meritocracies and exam based curriculum the big population of learners whose talents and abilities are elsewhere will suffer lot. I pe...
