10 DAYS IN

Holla!,Como estas? (hello,how are you?) Welcome to 2019. Happy new year.
The other day, I was watching the 'animals' channel. One particular scene caught my attention, a baby gazelle was just trying to take it's first steps. It's shaky legs would move one step and the beautiful creature would come trembling down. Now that,was cute. Tell you what's not cute; trying to rise from the ground after life knocks you down..nah.it sucks at times. 2018 was a year of growth and bliss for most of us. Maybe just maybe some of us are healing from the wounds inflicted by the hardknocks of 2018 while others are experiencing the growth pain; look,youre becoming a butterfly. 10days into 2019 and me,Ndanu? I'm not about to tell you how to live your life. The healing process happens differently. To some it involves writing down the hurt, sitting up all night, talking to someone. Sometimes beloved,healing is rest..having everything inside of you in a quiet hidden state. At times it feels nothing,you just numb and a little basket of emotions.Whatever form your healing takes, I hope you become better,allow it to happen and take care of you.Let cicatrization happen.
Honestly speaking (or is it writing?),I love my scars. I earned them on the battlefield resembling honor,dignity,strife and victory. They carry deeper meanings and they've stayed with me longer than many people have. I look up to you, you who is doing everything you can to make it to kesho. You wearing your heart on your sleeve and working so hard to be softer on yourself when you have every reason to be hard. You who is fighting on bended knees to be a better person. I know how much courage it takes to be you. I respect you.Here's the thing,as you embrace  2019,I hope you
enjoy your joys. Live for the little awesome moments.
Oga! Laugh at your own jokes even if you are the only one who understands them. Prioritize,what's important and urgent, what's important and not urgent and what's urgent and not important.Be mature enough to realize you have some weaknesses too,its not always the other person. Forgive.Eat,travel,dance in the rain. Make the days count.Make God so happy that He gave life to someone who appreciates it as a gift. You going to love who you turn out to be.  Meanwhile,lemmie eat my maembes in peace before the season ends then I meet some mango juice mixed with 20litres of water. Live,love and thrive,you deserve it.
