Inspiration over the years

I randomly picked this topic out of curiosity; ever since I was young I have heard all kinds of people speaking about this man, a leader and a hero, famously known for his quotes, Martin Luther King. I actually dint know about him much apart from him being a clergyman, I wasn’t even sure, about I have a dream and of course for his famous quotes that I too have been using them but not so familiar with this historical figure.

Martin Luther King was a middle child, I guess it runs in middle children, am not mentioning names, probably that’s why I got curious about him. Its funny how he became a clergy man, just like his father, many are the times pastors kids are complete opposite of their clergy parents, if I was to look around and, pin point clergy children, my point will be well demonstrated, but well its just a stereotype.

One thing that amazes me is the dedication that he had on fighting for human rights and especially for the blacks. I wonder, was there a time that, he was discriminated against that made him the person he was? But then again it doesn’t have to be for that reason, as everyone has a different passion that was his passion and calling. I was especially amazed by the story of a 15 year old woman, Claudette Colvin, who was charged for not giving up a bus seat for a white man, mind you she was pregnant. You know what this comes with, moods and moods to make it worse she was unmarried. For heavens sake, with all respect, those Jim crow laws, as was being followed, was total misery. Why would the white man come earlier than that if he really needed the seat? I wish that can happen now, the rudeness especially in Nairobi public transport, no one can spare you for that.

Jim claws laws are ridiculously funny, no white was supposed to be a nurse in any public or private hospital, It shall be unlawful for a negro and white person to play together or in company with each other at any game of pool or billiards, All marriages between a white person and a negro, or between a white person and a person of negro descent to the fourth generation inclusive, are hereby forever prohibited. I can not continue with this, its so depressing, I just thank God I have never experienced such animosity, so to say. These are the few of many other laws that Martin Luther was fighting against. I have not experienced this discrimination to this far, the one that was bad for me, but no where near this is a time I was in South coast and we were literally chased away from a hotel just because we are blacks. It wasn’t directly told to us but some things, you don’t have to be told, its just right there on your face. Back to these annoying laws, how on earth would someone think his/her race is most important and not even care to an extent a law is implemented.  When I say a law, I mean it, its a set rules and guidelines which are enforced through social institutions to govern behavior.

Its just amazing how there’re people who no matter what they go through, they keep the optimistic attitude. Martin Luther was one such person; King used a non-violent strategy which was well adopted by black students all over. This included the activities of the freedom fighters  in their campaign against segregated transport. Within six months these sit-ins had ended restaurant and lunch-counter segregation in twenty-six southern cities. Student sit-ins were also successful against segregation in public parks, swimming pools, theaters, churches, libraries, museums and beaches. Talk of great leaders, Martin qualifies, unlike most of our leaders who advocate for all violent ways they know of he did not, no wonder everyone uses his sayings till today.

Well, I don’t know what will happen now; we’ve got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn’t matter with me now, because I’ve been to the mountaintop. And I don’t mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life - longevity has its place. But I’m not concerned about that now. I just want to do God’s will. And He’s allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I’ve looked over, and I’ve seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land. So I’m happy tonight; I’m not worried about anything; I’m not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord."

I have been to the Mountain top, that was the last thing, he said and the next time he was shot dead. How sad people leave us. But one thing is for sure he has been an inspiration to many, he changed the world, with so many things but the key he fought for rights, human rights that were completely not rights according to other human beings.

Hidden treasure

Ohh well, you probably are wondering what am talking about, I know. Anyway I just discovered a hidden treasure that has been so close yet to far to be known.

So yesterday a friend complimented me for having done a piece of work in such a short time, well as  he says, as opposed to what he is used to.

I am not spontaneous.  I love lists.  I organize things to other people's distraction.  I like organization, which I suppose is not a bad thing.

I do not like stress at all at all, as in I can do anything to avoid it. I guess this has come with a positive thing don’t procrastinate!

There I said it! Isn’t that enlightening? I mean, how many knew that? Of course we all knew that but we act like we don’t. -)

This made me realize , you only need to know yourself and look at what you do. This is the only way you get to know your strengths al of us have strengths, it doesn’t matter if the other person does not like what you do.... We are greatly in need of such a warning.

I have since resolved to using my treasure that took long to be one, and I tell you, its amazing, stress percentage now ., yes for real. It has become so relaxing and FUN!  I still have some organization (that's just me), but even the organization is more playful.  I wish I had discovered this years ago. Procrastinating is a dangerous bird flu.

Take that step, Be Independent !

Accept yourself. You cannot build a strong, independent you if you can't live with yourself. Accept your body, your personality, your opinions, your choices, your preferences, and your life story. Do not say things against yourself. Everyone can be strong enough. Everyone has put up with something, proving their strength. Put behind you your mistakes and learn from them. Make an effort to be a better you and most importantly love yourself!

Believe in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself then who else will believe in you? We are all different and have something unique to say. No one can speak the words on your lips and not everyone is going to agree with what you say which is why its important for you to stand by who you are because at the end of the day you are all you got and if you believe in yourself other that's really all that matters.

Accept the world. Independent people are not vain, nor do they believe the entire human race is cruel. Independent people are those who see the world, with its good and its bad, and consciously choose to be strong for themselves and others. You are not independent because you do not trust anyone. You are not independent because you think highly of yourself. Master this technique. Learn to accept the world, and decide to be strong.

Rely upon yourself for the motivation and the drive. Other people do not have and will never have the same vested interest in your success. Motivation and success is a function of habit. You must break your bad habit of procrastination, and replace it with one of good planning. The most successful people in the world aren't always the brightest, or the best looking, but no matter what other talents or gifts they have been blessed with, they have underpinning their self esteem a series of victories over tasks both large and small. This is how you learn anything in school, gain confidence dating, and everything else in life.

Be your own hero. Something people do too often is creating a role model for themselves. Do not look up to anyone. Be your own role model. Aim to be yourself, and be the best you can be. If you can't look up to yourself, you can't be independent.

Don't settle. For anything. Not comfort, ease, or to "be nice". Work hard at everything you do. Defend your opinions. And, for you girls, don't let a man feel he has to pamper you. If you're capable of doing something good, do it. So long as it doesn't have a bad effect, you should do it. That doesn't mean do absolutely everything, but you shouldn't feel it's necessary for people to do things for you that you could do for yourself. Work your best and hardest to leave people saying "That person doesn't rely on anyone to do things for them. What a strong, independent person.".

Plan your day around you, not anyone else. People who are most dependent on others allow their worlds to revolve around the needs of other people or other things. Plan your day according to your own schedule--make a list of what you want to do, what you need to do and what you should have already done.

Greatest Gift

Greatest Gift

Other things may change but this will never change

My basic instinct is not for survival but for family. When I look at my life, the greatest happiness I can say is my family. I do not know what words to use to say how much I love and treasure my family. Every time I pray I can never forget to whisper to God something about my family and most of all to thank him for giving me such an awesome family. As I write this, I feel so much emotion that no one can understand not even myself; all I know is am grateful.

We are five, Dad, mum, big brother, myself and my lastborn sister. The great gift of family is to be intimately acquainted with people you might never even introduce yourself to, had life not done it for you. If I wasn’t one of them, am sure I would find away that I will still connect to them for the great people they are, I would probably meet them and pretend to be homeless or in need, and for sure they would help me out, they have such big hearts that, they get moved with the simplest stuff that most people cannot seem to see. Note that I talk in plural terms, this is because we have all grown to be alike and with the good values that Paps and mum have instilled in all of us.

I call them superheroes, basically they have saved my life, I have hard my ups and downs and all throught they have always been there with advice and prayers. Many are times I annoyed them and did mischevious things but they have been my supporters. My Superheroes they are!!!

Turn the Pitfalls into positive aspects

Turn the Pitfalls into positive aspects

One of the greatest Sportsman of the world, Michael Jordan, had this to say regarding his failure and success : “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot… and I missed. I have failed over and over and that is the reason why I succeed.……”

Whenever something goes wrong or you are in a disadvantaged situation, the best thing to do is turn the negative into a positive. I am different from the others and you too are different from all of us, and that’s why no one looks exactly like you, talks like you and even thinks like you do. This is something we should all accept. You may not be the best photographer, but taking this as a stepping stone and accepting, is the first step of turning your pitfalls into positive aspects.

It happens to all of us, in a hard situation, naturally we release our inner Hulk and bash, as we are all human. This negative reaction will only make the circumstances worse that is why we should learn to think and act positively, which in turn will help us in all life situations. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it and seize the opportunity.

Enjoy Your day-- end Month!!!!Bye bye July
