I FEAR...

"I fear for our lost generation.Everything around me is turning into something completely new,things ad never thought would exist!Lollipops turn into cigarettes. The innocent ones turn into sluts. Homework goes in the trash. Mobile phones are being used in class. Detention becomes suspension. Soda becomes vodka. Bikes become cars. Kisses turn into sex. Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground? When protection meant wearing a helmet? When the worst things you could get from boys were cooties? Dad’s shoulders were the highest place on earth and mum was your hero? Your worst enemies were your siblings. Race issues were about who ran the fastest. War was only a card game. And the only drug you knew was cough medicine. When wearing a skirt didn’t make you a slut. The most pain you felt was when you skinned your knees, and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow? And we couldn’t wait to grow up?".wot changed all this??
still, i fear!!!1

Must I Choose?

I am torn, conflicted
between one who is beside me
and one that should be,
I cannot decide.

She is my anchor,
speaks the words that comfort my heart.
The other teases me, a fun loving heart
they both make a perfect woman.

But I must decide.
Must I choose?
She bats her eyes and I die,
the other winks and my knees give way.

   
Must I choose?
She makes my heart faint with longing,
The other cherishes me beyond what I can imagine,
they both fill my heart with joy.

If I part with her, I will die.
If the other leaves me, my soul will be robbed of light.
Must I decide?
They both are the perfect woman.

this life i live...

My life has become a brittle bouquet
Of dead red roses in rapid decay
And all that I thought one day I could be
Is now but a part of lost history.

I look to the East and yearn for the West,
Confusion conceals the best of my quest.
Lost to the ages and rages of time,
Dreams of destruction destroy my sublime.

Life's haunting refrain just leaves me with pain,
I see only loss while looking for gain.
Shattered and battered from reckless crusades,
While searching for truth but truth always fades.

Bitter and broken my life out of hand,
Darkness descending as I make a stand.
I once was an eagle, flying up high,
But I lost my wings and then lost the sky.

Born with great gifts to both give and receive,
And when I was young, my youth did believe,
But then I became a pawn in the game
Of pleasure and pain, both buried in shame.

Disease of the mind I carried at birth,
A bipolar life would measure my worth.
Paternal genetics, a father's first gift;
Our two brains afflicted predicted the rift.

A childhood erratic emphatic with fears
Where highs and lows would flow with salted tears.
All chance of normal family stripped bare;
No blood on blood can love or dare to share.

Illusion with confusion then to war
As wasted-worn tore through my inner core.
With hope I leave those years of fear behind
For now the time has come to heal the mind

So it can make each day forever free,
Immersed in verse with life's sweet poetry;
This man who loves his sacred family
Is part of the bark that beautifies the tree.

poverty..

A rich Dad took his son to a village to show him “Poverty”

After the trip he asked his son about poverty.

Son replied:
We have one dog, they have many.....
We have a small pool, they have a Long River....
We have light, they have stars....
We have small piece of land, they have large field....
We have food; they grow food for themselves and for others

Dad was speechless....

Then boy said:
Thanks Dad for showing how poor we are....

My Guardian Angel Knows

My Guardian Angel Knows,

How much it will has cost me to love her,

My insightful, spontaneous, sensual friend

Our friendship blossomed into a perilous love affair,

How much it will cost me to follow my desires,

To drift to sleep wrapped in her  arms

While the moon rises across the star lit sky.

How much it will cost me to satisfy my need,

To wake up beside her warm body,

Before the world intervenes,

How much it will cost me if I enjoy,

Snuggling and making love with her

Sharing a crazy passion I had forgotten existed.

How much it will cost me to put my family obligations aside

So I can walk with her, our heads together,

Weaving our dreams into one, building a new life.

How much it will cost if I keep taking these risks,

Do I just walk away from this phenomenal woman?

How much it will cost to love and be loved,

Yes, only my guardian angel knows and she's not saying!

wtf?

the future of safcom users..lol

I think Safaricom ought to change some of these messages they send to you after you perform a service request (checking credit, topping up, blah blah blah) and the voice notifications. This is because I realized if you load your phone with a thousand bob worth of credit, once finished, it will tell you the same thing as the guy who topped up with twenty bob.

For those who never load their phone but insist on checking their balance (like the 0.87 balance grows overnight) it should reply with a message like, "We are fed up with you checking credit everyday yet you don't top-up! Uza simu ununue credit!"

Now for those who always have credit lakini most of it comes from Sambaza Donations, the credit balance reply should be something like, "The credit balance (which you didn't buy by the way so we wont say Your Credit balance...) is XX shillings. You last topped up this phone with YOUR OWN MONEY last year in September."

For those people who beep even when they have credit, the message should be something like, "Your credit balance is Ksh 0.00. Why u ask? Because even if we tell you that you have a million bob, you'll beep your friend, wait for him to call, and then tell him YOU WON A MILLION BOB WORTH OF CREDIT!"

The rest of the paying subscribers can continue receiving the normal messages with a few exceptions.

If you buy a Bamba twenty, make two phone calls and send two texts, then you decide to check if you still have credit, the message should be something like, "Wacha mchezo! Unadhani credit ya mbao inaweza kuwa imebaki kweli? Two phone calls, two texts... You do the math DAMBASS!"

To topping-up. For those perennial bamba fifty fans, the topping up return message from 141 should be, "Same" And if they top up like five sok, they should get a message like, "Our system is acting up today! Imagine it assumes u loaded 500 bob. We have adjusted though. Must have been a zero error!"

And finally, after staying for a few weeks without topping up, irrespective of the amount you top up, Safaricom should just use one message. It should be something short, precise and to the point. Like, "Finally!" unless you are from Kibera of course which would mean they would have to reply with, "Umechoka kurusha mawe?" ..

''Eleven Hints for Life"

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return.
But what is more painful is to love someone and never
find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who
means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was
never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose
it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been
missing until it arrives.
 
5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an
hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it
takes a lifetime to forget someone..

6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth,
even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you
smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day
seem bright.

7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,
be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and
one chance to do all the things you want to do.

8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it
hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck
a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may
heal and bless.

10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best
of everything they just make the most of everything that comes
along their way.

11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with
a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone
around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,
you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying. 

Life treats you according to how you live it..I have been trying to get answers for the many questions in my head,but now i know why am so lonely....MAYBE its time....

Pain of Loving You...

                                                                        

Where am I going with your love?
Where am I walking, when I've already found the light?
Why am I walking away from the light
Its getting darker and darker
And the roads are twisting and turning
Blinded by the curve;
I knock myself on the sideways;
My soul shatters;
I pick up the pieces-
A puzzle so hard to put together...

The pain of loving you....,
The pain of broken soul cease
as the calf pain builds...., I keep running....
How far will i run? I don't know
How far have I come? I don't know
But you are the flowing river...
And its rude to interrupt the flow...
i thought its better if i let you know,

My thoughts running with you
My prayers showering happiness over you
Protect through your astounding endeavors
That made me fall for you in the first place..
And now am the one to endure this pain,
and it is killing me...

Life Gift..

                             
Life is what it is you know,after all
a trouble, a bother, a great falderol.
A wonder, a gift, something so fine,
a heartache so wondrous, a link through our time;
a joy and a pleasure, a weekness, our strength,
a road to be taken, a lesson at length.

So when it is over and we go our way
there's something behind us that's left and will stay.
A memory brilliant. a foggy remind,
a look at a loved one. a chance to be kind;
a warning, a story, a benefit gold
when all of the missive our lives will unfold

25 BEAUTIFUL AND UPLIFTING PHRASES

 


 


 


 



 



 



 


 In God we trust

One nation under God        

Well Enough to Smile?

A standard poem with no real meaning. . 
Excitement fills my body well,
When I know good things are swell,
Freedom is a valued word,
Saving us from hell.
People say "hope is gone"
But I say that's not so,
Hope and freedom is one song,
So let me sing it so.

I'll judge you not
For loving your life
I'll judge you
When you are wrong.
I've to say these things sometimes
It's how I'm kept from harm.
I trust your sight
I trust your thought
And now I must trust myself.

HARD life,.....al survive......

My life has become a brittle bouquet
Of dead red roses in rapid decay
And all that I thought one day I could be
Is now but a part of lost history.

I look to the East and yearn for the West,
Confusion conceals the best of my quest.
Lost to the ages and rages of time,
Dreams of destruction destroy my sublime.

Life's haunting refrain just leaves me with pain,
I see only loss while looking for gain.
Shattered and battered from reckless crusades,
While searching for truth but truth always fades.

Bitter and broken my life out of hand,
Darkness descending as I make a stand.
I once was an eagle, flying up high,
But I lost my wings and then lost the sky.

Born with great gifts to both give and receive,
And when I was young, my youth did believe,
But then I became a pawn in the game
Of pleasure and pain, both buried in shame.

Disease of the mind I carried at birth,
A bipolar life would measure my worth.
Paternal genetics, a father's first gift;
Our two brains afflicted predicted the rift.

A childhood erratic emphatic with fears
Where highs and lows would flow with salted tears.
All chance of normal family stripped bare;
No blood on blood can love or dare to share.

Illusion with confusion then to war
As wasted-worn tore through my inner core.
With hope I leave those years of fear behind
For now the time has come to heal the mind

So it can make each day forever free,
Immersed in verse with life's sweet poetry;
This man who loves his sacred family
Is part of the bark that beautifies the tree.
