Appreciating Friendship


Henry (L) and Kevin Kimtai (R)
Time has indeed swung by so fast I looked up and behold August had arrived well and indeed. I fell particularly good about this month for the reason I had a feeling deep down that something good was going to happen. I have been getting goosebumps just thinking about it. So yes where have you been? So many friends  and acquaintances have asked, I have seen friends' texts and messages, tweets and inboxes asking for my blog posts... I do apologize for the delay but here we are..

So many decisions have been made, so many changes in my life all I can say is that I am a better person and I give thanks to God. I have learnt so many things that need to be shared with friends. I was just about to write on a totally different topic but then I stumbled upon something today that I thought was absolutely profound to share.

particularly good about this month for the reason I have a feeling deep down something good is going to happen, I get goosebumps just thinking about it. So yes where have you been? so many have asked, i have seen friend's texts and messages, tweets and in-boxes asking for the blog post... I do apologize for the delay but here we are..

How many times have we seen in our lives, a pattern a cycle of sorts. We go through the same things the in the classroom of life, you do not move to the next class simply because you are persistent and have failed so many times, you only move when you have learnt.
It's amazing that we often miss the point, we often fail to take notice of those who really care for us, those who are anchors of our lives and leave the best to go for the rest, that we fail to realize that we ourselves are a priority not an option! I tell you what once we look into the mirror and like the person on the other side and realize that they deserve the best, our perspective on life will change.

The people in our lives are diamonds. Let's cherish them because they are there for a reason, but no matter the situation the person or the event, please do not miss the point. Live, learn, love...there is power in you not to make a difference but to be the difference..

same hurts and all and then we seemingly recover, only for it to recur. We get our heart broken again, we relapse into that addiction, we go back to that friend we know is bad for us, we go back to that relationship we know is hurting us yet we remain convinced that it will work out. We continue with a habit we know is wrong. Think about it then realize that maybe all this time we have been missing the point. Someone once told me that

The Kenyan Shepherd

The Kenyan Shepherd
It is a dream until you stop dreaming, wake up and get to action. So in the past few days, I decided to stop dreaming. I woke up and got to action. It is almost surreal. When I first shared my plans with a couple of friends, I thought they would actually laugh in my face!No, they all seem to think that I have pretty solid business plans. Their confidence gave me courage to proceed.

For God to bless the work of my hands and to walk in his will even as I approach this venture is crucial for me. So I keep looking out for signs, keep listening to hear His voice. I'm so glad I have a shepherd that is fail proof.

There is not day I'm not thankful! So as I cautiously proceed with my ambitions and great stuff for business, prayers will be appreciated. I can't wait for this to come to fruition. I might actually make my first million by age 35. Now that will be something. Yet, I have so many more things that depend on the success of the project that I have in mind- orphanages to be funded, schools to be built and even TV programs to be written and directed. I'm not contented with just the success of one. One who is successful must help elevate his/her community.

Success must be shared otherwise it will turn into loneliness.
