I have come to realise that most of the people that are ignored or judged because they do not reach a certain standard in society or are odd make good companions. When you get close to them and get to know them, you realise that they are good people. Some of my closest friends are…

My experiences from places
FOR ONCE… LISTEN.
Listen! I hardly pour my heart out. I would rather keep my feelings to myself. But you need to listen to me. I love you. You think I do not love you because you complain all the time about how I hardly care about you. You want me to express my feelings all the time…
FEELING LOVED
It is endearing to have someone fuss over me. He puts my needs above his. He calls frequently to check up on me and gets worried when he has not heard from me for than more a day. He looks into my eyes and pours his heart to me and entrusts his very soul into…
SILENCE KILLS
You killed me. They did not. When their lies were piling up, you kept quiet. They said and did all they could, while you watched. I looked at you. I stared into your eyes. You did not even blink. I was broken not because they tortured me but because you said and did nothing. I…
I DIED?
When I woke up this morning, I received a call from a friend. He sounded very worried and surprised when I spoke with him. He read on twitter that I was dead and he was calling to confirm. Unfortunately he had misread the message. A young man from Mizpah International School was dead. There are…
CLEARANCE!
There are too many things in my life right now; family, friends, acquaintances, education, work, hobbies, food, etc. I am suffocating under all of them. Yet I keep hoarding more every day. I am clearing almost everything out of my life. Anything that is irrelevant is leaving. It is difficult to end relationships but…
STAY CALM
One of the most important things I have learnt in life from experience is remaining calm in difficult situations. In the past, I used to freak out and worry a lot. Remaining calm helps me to rationlise the situation and find the appropriate solution. I can concentrate on the causes of the problems. When I…
LIVE AGAIN ISLAND
I wish there was an island for broken people. A place where only people who have been betrayed and endured a hard life can go to and have a second chance. Everyone living on this island has experienced pain and deep loss. There would no judgement, selfishness, abuse and betrayal. Just acceptance. …
FORGIVENESS
One of my biggest challenges in life is forgiveness. I find it very difficult to forgive people who hurt me especially those who do it deliberately. Forgiveness sets you free. When you hold grudges against people because they did you wrong, you feel burdened with a lot of hatred but when you forgive them,…
THE MISTAKEN IN-LAW
One of the best experiences in my life was when I was mistaken for an in-law. I visited my male friend for a couple of days and his family thought I was his girlfriend. They treated me so well, I actually wished I was their in-law. My friend and I tried on several occasions…
DO RIGHT IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE JUDGED!
I get so ENRAGED when people hide behind, “don’t judge me” to do bad things, especially Christians who quote Jesus Christ, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her “. John 8:7 Actions have ripple effects and consequences. Do not think that your actions just affect you alone. If…
WEIRD TIES THAT BINDS
Since childhood I have always wondered a lot about most couples. Why are they together? What do they see in each other? Why is the beautiful woman with this ugly man? Why is this handsome man married to this ugly woman? I have been told love, money and fame make certain people decide to…
