Paradigm shift

T

oday is the 22^nd of September I have  grown by one month since my golden birth day on November 22^nd  . It is for this auspicious reason that I have decided to make this post a little bit different, I will complain about my address on my next post.

I had a crazy list of things that I want done by the time am twenty two, I even downloaded that Tailor Swift song for motivation. Well guess what you can’t dictate when, where and how things can happen, life just flows like a river or lake, I don’t know one of the two I did history so geographers yeah……..

So one day I as I am walking out of the house to run my usual errands I bump into an article by Carol Mandi the Kenyan version of Oprah Winfrey , Steve Harvey and Wendy Williams well at least that’s how I see her hihihihi .  So basically she was talking about her rose flowers actually the article is dubbed “like a rose find your sunny spot and thrive”. OMG! Have you ever been in a tight spot and poof someone comes to you and says exactly what you want to hear that article spoke to me and gave me insight on so many things that were happening in my life.

In the article she talks about how she always wanted to have a rose garden at her back yard so she did everything her friends had told her to do and did some research on Google but things just did not work out. So she retraced her steps and found out that her backyard was her dream location but it was not appropriate for the rose flowers because it had limited sunshine.

So I came up with my own concussion of how I will concur the reminder of Elsie at 22. I borrowed some aspect from ancient Chinese like yin and yang so this is definitely better than kitungu saumu and honey; it never works for me during a cold am just saying…… 

* I say live life one step at a time eat the right food and sometimes spoil yourself especially after working real hard.

*Try and read as much as you can, I have very bad reading habits especially novels but at least I compensate with magazines and articles and sometimes the bible ….knowledge is power.

*My personal favorite, always look good, you will feel good. Put on that make up that outfit that crazy Sean Paul hair cut, Rihanna whoever it is all about how you feel and the energy you emanate.

*To sum it all up, love yourself. You think so you are as my sister always quotes.

That’s how I found my sunshine and am ready to blossom into a beautiful rose flower.

Am a self proclaimed bad ass bitch it is about time i let the Nicki Minaj in me go and stop being overprotective and just live life. I have always wanted to look good for others so as to be accepted by others but now I look good for me so that I can accept my own self. And I love it so far!!!!!!!

Signing out yours the realest ,
