Turn Any Negative into A Positive …

You know, after recent events, I have realized that any negative can be turned into a positive. Yeah, even death. I know, I sound insane. This is not a good thing to say to anyone who has been affected by death. Give it time to heal and then launch your positivity thing. If you do this too soon, you will be declared mental alone.  Let’s be like me here for a while. Yeah, hurt is there but ask yourself, how do you benefit positively?

You know, negative stuff is there to make you grow. You become better at decision making, organizational skills, discipline, e.t.c. If negative stuff makes you weak, you are weak indeed. You should not let some things break you. If they do, pick yourself up and move on. The beauty of life is that your problems become stepping stones if you let them. If you don’t, you will sink so deep, no one is going to be able to pull you out. I am imagining, sinking into mud. I say pull because push would mean whoever is pushing you is deep in the mud. Try surviving in mud without breathing we see how long you can hold your breath. Breathe, if you deem yourself macho.

You know, negativity is like mud. You need to rid yourself of it before you can become acceptable again. Otherwise you will just leave undesirable footprints and handprints wherever you go. If you want to be another famous person after Hitler, try negativity. You will be hated and not easily forgotten. We can barely forget Hitler. Can we? In the end, what did he gain?

I was told that someone died because a cup of water was poured on him. My source is a credible one. I just don’t feel like sharing it. No more personal stuff. If I share my source, then I will break the “personal” rule.  

You know, Hitler smiled after that guy died! He never smiled. Yeah, that is how mean this guy was. But, I also think there can’t be more of a coward! Jesus!  How do you die from a cup of water? Or maybe it was the fright of a lifetime to meet Hitler. Hitler thrived by making himself appear like a god. Even gods don’t act like that. Demons and the devil can, so I guess it is safe to say Hitler was the devil incarnate.

I know someone who thinks Hitler was a good man. I don’t get it. I don’t think I can. How?

So next time you want to call someone mean, think Hitler.

So your calling me mean is a joke of the century. I am adorable just blunt like something else. I have my good and bad aspects. I doubt that Hitler had any good in him. Anyway, let’s go back to the topic.

Now, there is something going on in the country. It is not pretty. Let me repeat my Pastor’s words: You have a responsibility towards society. That is freedom. I agree. Freedom is not doing what you feel like.

Society is your friend and enemy. Both. Yeah, they will laugh with you when you need to laugh like weddings. The society will cry with you in funerals. It will strip you naked without mercy in Nairobi.

My friend also chipped in: I do not defecate along Thika road just because there is freedom. I know what responsible is. I agree. Totally positive.

But because we are turning negatives to positives, Lesson learned: worldly men really love to look at naked women then undress them in the name of shame yet they lust like a nonsense and don’t think those ladies pay a price! It is positive to look for the right things in the right place. Wolf whistles because of your dress being deemed too short will just make you be stripped in public in some places. Demonstrating in hideous clothing doesn’t make it any better. Try harder and find a solution.

You know what comes to mind? Slum dog millionaire!

FYI

Now, I gave you people an example of defying laws. This is rare according to studies (I have no idea which studies we are talking about. I overheard with many witnesses) but I am about to defy a kind of a law to my advantage. Don’t defy the law. You will be arrested. I told you I always choose the winning side. That’s a fact for me. Call me names. I don’t care. I come first in my world. I may not star in your world but I really wish that mattered. Maybe I’d sigh. It is very okay to not feature in everyone’s story. I mean, who does anyway?

You know, you have to have enemies so that you know that you stand for something. If you are just sailing through unopposed, you are not serious. You have to have enemies. You also have to have friends. Both are good.

(Yeah ... I don't think an enemy photo is worth it ... so I think I'll just pass)

If you lack friends, oh boy! These genuine souls hold you when you are down, they are the people who are there for you when you think you’ve got the world on your shoulders. And that’s not all; these people are there not to be walked all over by your dirty feet but to be given your much needed company, support and time. Enjoy the good times with them. Face challenges with them. If you run away, you are a coward!

I hear they live longer. Who cares? Give me brevity anytime.

You have to defy a few laws in order to be unique. If you like mediocre, suit yourself. I won’t motivate you in any, way. Just do your thing. But know that I am not following that beaten path. I’d rather create mine. It is harder but more rewarding. For me, mediocre sucks big time!

Only someone who has beaten one will get what I mean. I think we share a lot in common with the path beaters. Those who just sail through deserve other sailors. No pun intended.

Now, that brings me to an unforeseen quagmire. What to do? Not to worry, I think I have a solution somewhere. I just have to find it first. I think I know what to do but, too bad I have to break hearts in the process.

I love the way I can express myself freely without worrying that I may not be paid (You know, you have to please your crowd when it comes to payment); you will judge me by my words; whatever else that fits here, fit it …

There is no greater joy than fulfilling purpose. Quite frankly, the people who say they have no joy in their lives are missing something. That something is called purpose. Look for it. It is that important in your life. Onlookers are many. Ignore them. They are just idle and you can never achieve anything by being idle. Strive to be active even when you don’t see immediate results. You will see them soon.

I just love this webpage. I think it is the best thing to ever happen to me on the internet.

I’d be lying if I said life!

Peace of Mind …

Let me tell you, it is very easy to get peace of mind. Sometimes we may stray but the trick is to never let your peace be held by someone. I know parents are wondering if I am insane. Keep wondering, you are wasting time. Dare to be different. It is really freeing. You know, I hear that these bonds of family are so strong they may go against my second sentence.

I am not there yet and no! I don’t purport to get anything but yes; you can separate peace of mind with other stumbling blocks you may find on life’s path. Of course there must be stumbling blocks. I mean, who do you think you are? Welcome to planet earth. Fyi, even small kids overcome nightmares so stop whining and appreciate that you are alive and able to conquer stumbling blocks. If you keep falling on purpose, then you have yourself to blame.

You may think nightmares are just stupid but try telling that to a child…

 

Anyway, enough about kids let us concentrate on ourselves first. You know; if you do not love yourself, don’t think you can love anybody. And no! I never told you to be selfish. There is love for you and there is selfish. These two terms may confuse but somehow, you will know the difference. Let me not get in your way.

I’ve heard that love makes the world go round. I wonder at that statement. I am still wondering. Whether there is love or not, the earth will rotate on its own axis. Or maybe God is love so because He made the earth … There are so many ways to look at this statement, I don’t know which the truth is anymore. Or maybe, there are many truths. Imagine! That has not taken away my peace of mind. I am okay. I think peace of mind is just ignoring the useless things in life(I can’t begin to tell you how many things are useless. They are just too many) and embracing what you cannot do without (anything that does not go well with you and you cannot deal with, you can do without). You can shun anything that makes you what you are not. It is very possible.

I used to be selfish. Now, I just love me. Yeah, people change. You just have to have faith in humanity. Even the worst souls can shock you. But, separate the pretenders from the real deal. Not everyone is genuine. Some just want to use you. Trust me on this one. Actually, no! Don’t trust me, trust your instincts. Or guts, or inner guidance or whatever fancy name you use for that sixth sense. I do not want to downplay the importance of the other five senses but the sixth is never wrong.

You know, the mind is an intricate thing. Let me call it so because it is not an organ, it is not tangible, it is just another strange thing we have to live with. Psychologists may disagree. I wish it mattered. I believe that the first step to peace of mind is to forgive you. Failure to do so will just make you go mental.

Then if you want to be totally free, ask for forgiveness from the party you harmed. If not, try forgetting. Good luck on that one. If you harmed a dead party, I don’t know what to tell you. Seek professional help.

I am done typing what I have just been thinking.

This Will Sound Terrible …

You know, someone died this week. Some big shot. It is a big deal as always. I don’t know why people do not understand that someone is more valuable alive than dead. I didn’t feel a thing.  People who loved him obviously feel terrible. I’d be lying to say I loved him. I didn’t. Sorry for that hurting statement. I loved his humor. I’m also not happy he’s dead. Before you label me uncaring, please hear my side of the story.

Oh, the guy is a big shot who is celebrated in many circles. Obviously, he’s not, in mine. Of course he played a role. I’m just not sure which one! But, I am sure someone does.

First, so many relevant people die and nobody bothers. What makes this death worth remembering? His position in Government? Really? There are so many forgotten souls. He wasn’t related to me. We have zero in common. He said that even God cannot stop a referendum from happening in the country. I may laugh because I have a funny bone but your desire to be funny has gone over the limits Mr. Whoever. He also made a song, famous. I do and I also don’t attach meaning to so many things. 

But, he was funny. I can’t downplay that. He was really a man of the people. Anyway, in death is when everything becomes leveled. Not much matters. Only that you loved sincerely and all those things that money can’t buy; like humor.

There is the truth and there is speculation. Yeah, you want to point fingers at my hell joke. Let me defend myself. I was reporting not coming up with anything. So, don’t shoot the messenger.

Second, who told people that you have to cry when someone dies? That is such pretense! If you don’t feel a thing, be that. You want to tell me that everyone cries in funerals? Even when these crying folks didn’t interact in any way with the deceased? Of course, I sympathize with the bereaved but I won’t cry out loud. That’s just crazy! Be in a somber mood. That’s enough.

And for Chissake! Why hire people to cry in a funeral? Isn't that abuse to the attendants and the life of the dead man?

I attended a funeral this month of an old person relevant to me. Nobody cried. It was sad but, seriously there were no water works. 

In this country, people are paid to cry in funerals. How now? I don’t get it when strangers flock a bereaved home to wail out loud. I wish I had a shot gun. That meeting will automatically be a happy one. The chaos I will unleash will turn frowns into smiles (of course, for a moment, then everyone will go back to being sad). A moment of happiness can brighten even the saddest scenarios. Well, the affected will think I am crazy. Unfortunately, I can’t silence my big gun. I am joking … Some will take it so personal.

Third, I know someone will take my comments the wrong way. Too bad, you are about to blame me for all the wrong things in your life. Don't think I don't feel. I am human. But, I know once bitten, twice shy.

Anyway, I do not want to be a nuisance. I know of a story where a man played "another one bites the dust" when a neighbor grieved. Imagine! The law couldn't do anything to this guy. The neighbors tried. If you do that here, you'll be next in the grave. People don't need your bad jokes when they feel so sad. It doesn't make them happy. Even my gun theory will just remain a theory because I don't want the wrath of the masses.

I do not rejoice when talented folks go down. I actually admire talent. Anyway, everyone will be dead soon enough. It’s best to really live when you can. In the spirit of tolerance, I honor this dead man. Nobody can say he didn't live. Mistakes and all ...

My friend, life is short…

Anyway, life goes on.

Time and Change …

We know that good companies are never for sale. But, let’s have some fun while at it. Someone once told me that if it were possible, he could buy two companies: Microsoft and Apple.

He’d change the name of these companies to MicroApple or Applesoft. I laughed at the first name. It was a weird name, to say the least. He would maintain the staff but the management would obviously change.

Change is good yet frightening to most. Times change. If you do not want to be left behind, change with the times. If you do not want to change then I’m sorry to tell you that this world is not for you. Accept this and move on. Avoid being bitter. It will just take you further from your goal.

I have noticed that people who make it, embrace change. Some of it is good. Some of it is bad. Unfortunately, taking the good and the bad is not so attractive to many people. Tantrums are the order of the day.

In order to be a “someone”, you have to accept change. Show me a “someone” in society who hasn’t accepted that change is a part of life and I will pull down my post. Fyi, I never do this. It will be a first.

So if Microsoft and Apple ever sell, accept the change and move on …

That is why many religions do not go well with the times. They are not bound by time. This world is. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule. Yeah, eat me. Cross your fingers that you are an exception. I never said you were! That is on you.

So, next time you want to judge a religious person on what you call standards, think again. That person is way above you and by a far distance. He or she knows that first things first. God comes first, never elsewhere in position.

By the way, I have a quote for this disparity:

If you are trying to pull me down, you are below me already…

Think about it.

Haters are going to die! This is such a scathing indictment!

So, next time you are near a better person than you, be much better by being small. It really confuses. That is why many billionaires are humble. If you come across a person who likes to flaunt it like Rick Ross, that person is definitely not a billionaire. Let me stop there because I have personal beef with this one. First, I think his beard is full of fleas. And he likes to flaunt a chest that is so gross, Jesus! There happens to be high-end gyms for the likes of this one. We are tired of obesity taking our most talented.

Yeah, he’s talented in that genre (although I don’t get very many things about his music) just the way Lil’ Wayne is super talented.

But, I guess his line of work calls for a flaunter.

Anyway, I also think Lil’ Wayne is hideous but very talented. I think women just don’t care that a man is hideous provided he has paper. But, men who are not blessed in the looks department are really blessed with the tongue of a snake! Charming is their thing. And very many women fall for this. Well, it is an ingrained weakness. Women and hearing; bad combination. They will do anything to be told they are beautiful. It is not bad to say someone is beautiful. Just don’t look too eager to please. It is so pathetic! Real compliments from the heart are not too eager to please. They are meant. That is the difference between pathetic and the real deal. Just the way men and looks makes men think with their Dicks.  The brain shuts down and fools show up.

Sex-related cues like [being in the presence of women, looking at pictures of women, discussing sex with women—essentially seeing, saying, doing, or thinking anything that causes the concept of "WOMEN" to pop into the male mind] have been found to make men more prone to take risks while playing blackjack, to discount the future when making economic decisions and to spend on conspicuous luxury items (but not on mundane expenses). Typically, the effects are strongest in single men. By contrast, these studies uniformly report that cues about males have no such effects on women.

Except from Gawker website

That is why cars are sold with models on the side.

But, I have seen a hideous, dirty, and gross; you name it individual try to win a very pretty lady. He failed miserably. I was really happy for the lady. I didn’t care about the guy. He looked like a reject and he was obnoxious as hell. He made me laugh once. He was charming to death. He can charm. Jesus! The company provided is spoilt by the fact that he’s everything you hate. He can only talk. But, the lady was also very bright. Charm doesn’t work easily on pretty and bright girls. So maybe, my facts are twisted, on this one considering Lil’ Wayne and his numerous kids.

I hope this guy went into sales. I hope he works in an MLM firm.

I do not want to stereotype but there is so much truth here…

Yeah, science supports such people in that they have to find the best mates. Science has always been about mankind survival. Survival is for the fittest. But, in science, man is an animal. An animal with advantages. Like hands.

Religion says you are a higher being. You are no animal. Don’t behave like one.

Paper should never make you think I listen to riddims. I don’t. I respect my taste. Not everything is good for you. You don’t just go with the wind. You need to stand your ground.

Oh, I have really poked a big hole in your heart. Now, I want to move to the other side and totally discredit some things of what I have said. That hole I just poked is going to come in handy in my travels. I am not going round when there is a gaping hole staring at me. No way!

Now, time. We just go through a time continuum here on earth. Figure it out. That is homework. No, I never want to be a teacher, ever! I am so sure of this but my respect goes to all teachers. I understand if you want to be big in France, teach. In Kenya, you will die a pauper if you choose to depend on the Salary. Branch out. That is more like it.

Now, how about another angle of looking at things? We can start with Global Warming ... It is also a change of some sort ...
