Big Sister Advise

 LET GO; Let go of people, of habits, of anything that no longer serves you a greater good. 

You cannot control other people's actions but you can control your reaction to them. 

It is okay to not be okay, its just not okay to give up.

If you need help, ask for it, ain't no shame in the game if you do. 

We are all broken, nobody's life is perfect. 



To get respect, you gotta give respect.

Know your worth and never settle.

Never make decisions when you are angry and never make promises when you are happy. 

"I'M SORRY" are some of the underrated words in the English vocabulary, use them often. 

Learn to Forgive; not necessarily for the people who wronged you, but for YOU. FORGIVENESS IS HEALING. By not forgiving, you are only allowing those people to continue hurting you. 

Always treat the cleaner with the same respect you give the CEO 

If nothing changes, NOTHING CHANGES

Zack was everything I ever wanted in a man.  Dating in my city can be an extreme sport. Tell me I am not the only one who adores couples at the malls, holding hands and walking side by side. Smiling at each other, and us, by passers! I mean, love is beautiful. At some point, that was me and Zack. Zack was my man. I was the luckiest girl in the world, okay, maybe I am exaggerating. However, if you had bumped into me and him on our way to dinner, you would have certainly agreed with me that I was indeed the luckiest girl in Nairobi! We all know that Nairobi is the ghetto when it comes to dating. Remember what Bensol said about Nairobi? Anyway, no bad vibes here. Back to me and my Zack.  He was contemplation & enthusiasm, well mannered, a gentleman; my gentleman, had a home in the leafy suburbs, a nice car; ok I don't know much about cars but the one we used was a black Audi. He was everything, in a good way😚. This man gave me queen treatment. Speak of random flowe...

Good old days.

Up until today, I still can’t believe that I can actually love someone to that extent. You see, we didn’t plan to be best friends, no, fate brought us together. We shared the same birthdates, our sisters went to the same high school, we had quite the same taste in boys, we both loved hard. Our friendship was magical. We understood each other. Heart to heart sort of thing. During the holidays, we’d meet up and go for lunch in the busy restaurants of Nairobi.We loved to dress up and take photos. We talked about anything and everything. We didn’t judge each other; we couldn’t talk behind each other’s back. She was my sister. We laughed until our stomachs hurt, cried together when one of us was hurt. We had big plans after school. However, things started to go downhill. We stopped calling each other every day, stopped tagging each other on social media, we became secretive and distant. Our other “friends “started to tell me about things she said about me and vise versa. We hit rock bottom,...

The Diary Of A Depressed Girl.

  Dear Diary,   Loyalty, honesty, and vulnerability. Why am I like this! Perhaps it is because of my rough childhood, or maybe because I am a loner, an introvert who loves to do things on their own. I have built a wall that no one can climb. I feel safest when I am alone and I am the kind of person that loves to create a safe environment emotionally from people that are close to me, especially friends, rarely family. I am the weird child, the one who is never seen, leave alone talking and holding conversations. Ask me about everyone else but me. Am I really this damaged? This cold? This afraid? Today, I got a glimpse of my other side, somewhat my hidden side (Shadow). The side that is toxic, and very narcissistic. You know, they say that people who are kind and pleasant have another side that is equally extreme. I didn’t believe this until today. How did I end up here, how can I be like this?  Am i this ugly? How did i get here? “Self-awareness is like an onion....
