THE CAT AT THE BACK

So today was once again one of the looong day(had many of those)... but it was kind of interesting. I was dressing up, this morning and well, I had to pick my socks, so I stumbled upon a pair I  bought just for the fun of it ( yeap, I know you can identify with this), anyway it was quite the interesting pair they are grey, but the highlight of the socks is the imprint it has at the back..THE IMPRINT OF A CAT" yes, you read right! So I put them off (for the record my friends Nyawira and Cindy have seen these socks first hand). Anyway so, right now as I was finishing off preparing to leave, it hit me: " THESE SOCKS REPRESENT LIFE" Now before you throw a fit read on: You see in life we all have the cat at the back, you know how we look all calm and composed on the front but at the back we have the cat. That habit, person, situation that always seems to recur in our lives, it’s like it has nine lives. You know what I mean, the skeleton in the closet, the one habit you want to break, the person you keep falling in love with even though they don’t treat you right. That is the issue that has nine lives. You try and you can’t get read of it. Well, I was thinking what can be done, I mean how can we get off, and then I realized, I put these socks on; I can as well take them off. Dont you think it’s time you took off that extra luggage, made that important decision, and enjoyed peace. I tell you what, I have learnt that peace is the most important thing in life, it is wholeness nothing missing, nothing broken and that includes your heart, especially your heart. You can make the decision to shed off the baggage because I tell you what, you cannot fly high when you have baggage dropping you down, when that situation keeps popping back up...so take the socks off! Breathe afresh, take some time to think things through and once you get rid of the cat at the back you can walk in perfect peace.

Why is it important? So you can walk better, no one wants stinky socks right? Well if you want to be a better person, and then do it, do it now, don’t procrastinate, call that person, change your plans do what you have to do to get rid of the cat at the back! “But I can’t do it!" “It’s hard" true it may be but make that first step, progress is a process, it may be hard but it is not impossible!

Enough said

See you soon

ME THINKS

It has been quite an interesting day for me, today I woke up with a bounce on my step and music on my knees...yes I know who says that? But its true I had a severe case of musical knees, anyway that is beside the point. You know those things that people tell you in passing and you never really get to understand what they meant until they walk away or, until it hits you later and a light bulb goes off in our brain, ok not literally, but you know what I mean. So today I remembered something that I heard so long ago... here goes”you can never hang around with the eagles as long as you are still pecking around with the chickens"

I paused and thought about it ( and yes I can be quite at times, but that is besides the point **smiles**) so anyway I paused and I though it through and realized, how many times in life that we pass off opportunity simply because we are settling for second best. We shortchange ourselves, we pick the lesser instead of the better, we go for the least, the barely get by mentality, the thinking "oh I can never have that” or “I am good only for this" Then I asked myself. I’m I living the best, doing the best being the best I can be? Then another thought came to mind, a quote I read on twitter: "We can’t be perfect but we chase perfection and in the pursuit of it we catch excellence" 

My friend carrots, yes that is a name haha! Thinks I am in love with that quote and I am, you see I believe that we are created to be the best, and nothing less. We cannot therefore shortchange ourselves to settle for mediocre lives, relationships, situations all in the premise that, it’s what I deserve... But then it hit me again... (Yap I have really been thinking) that by the time we have these negative thoughts we have obliviously allowed it to get to us. How did you form that opinion? Most likely somebody told you, or you heard it somewhere...now now, keep your hats on, true think, when you say,  " im not that good" "i cant have that" or "your guy/girl is cheating? "he she doesn't treat me right" it must come from somewhere, I mean I know you are smart and all but it must come from somewhere, most likely you have allowed someone or even your situation to dictate your lives, which brings me back to this : "YOU CAN NEVER FLY WITH THE EAGLES AS LONG AS YOU ARE PECKING AROUND WITH THE CHICKENS" that is not to say you become picking but it means you become careful, don let anyone drag you down, or keep you down, you have within you the ability and capability for sustainability, you are marked to make a mark, I tell you what, if you begin to think like this then you will see a change, I though on this the whole day today and I felt better, wiser stronger, and all..I am a happy person because I choose to be an eagle....

Catch yol later...

REVERBERATIONS let me explain, teh word reveraration (it is a handful to type so i am imaging how you are saying it ) simply means :To resound in a succession of echoes or to 

2. To have a prolonged or continuing effect:  and herein lies the reason. Things taht happen to us each day, whether, waht we think or what we say or is said to us, how people act towards us, how they act towards otehrs, all these things have the ability to have a prolonged or continuing effect in our lives. So where are this stored, well in the heart. so in effect this means then that when i title my blog REVERBARATION - ECHOES OF THE HEART, it simply means : A prolonged effect - echoed through my heart!.. There that wasnt so hard was it?
