THIS ONE CHRISTMAS

On this Christmas eve
Where all neighbors
Prepare for the long awaited day
This one Christmas

Their kids hang on their Christmas stocking
Filled with small presents
All laughing and shouting happily
This one Christmas

Christmas finally gets here
They all have their Christmas pudding
While we just stared
This one Christmas

Our home looked abandoned
There was no pudding
No Christmas tree
This one Christmas

Husband of mother was not home
No single cent at home
No signs of celebrations at home
This one Christmas

Mother sat back quietly and lonely
Mother was sad
We all were
This one Christmas

lets play Mary, Joseph and Jesus

Mother took us to church
Seeing them kids play Mary, Joseph and Jesus
Got us manage a smile
This one Christmas

It would have been different thou
If only husband of mother
Would settle with ONE family
This one Christmas

EXCITED ABOUT YOU AT 25?

So, a close friend of mine suggested that I write about LIFE AT 25.(hey Clinton) Well, I am not 25 - maybe not yet or already past it (guess you'll never know, lol). But come to think of it, there's so much to talk and write about it. One thing I know for sure is that most of us expect to have figured out everything (having a job,that dream car and a perfect life partner - name it all) by this age. People tend to feel so much pressure around this age. Society has a way to burden people with the many unnecessary expectations. Someone, actually at some point my boss, once told me, "If you won't have been married by age 25, forget about getting married!" Now all I could think of was finding me a boyfriend. What if no one wanted me? What if I end up having those creepy lonely nights without a husband? What will become of me without a complete perfect family of my own? What would people think about me? All this until one day I realized that 25 is ...

" Usifanye tabia mbaya" As a kid every time I asked permission from my folks to go out and play, that's what they would tell me. Sex in my time was referred to as tabia mbaya, you would know if you are among the late 80's and early 90's kids. (early 90's ends at 1993,tusibishane) " Genital sex is an expression of intimacy, not the means to intimacy. True intimacy springs from verbal and emotional communion. True intimacy is built on a commitment to honesty, love and freedom. True intimacy is not primarily a sexual encounter. Intimacy, in fact, has almost nothing to do with our sex organs. A prostitute may expose her body, but her relationships are hardly intimate." Alice Fryling. Remember THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL? It was the alarm for bed time. SMH it saddens that cartoons/animations nowadays have sexual scenes and the most targeted market is our kids. At age 7, during my elder sisters' birthday party (she was 19 at...

THE COMMON BEACH WEAR

So, at one point in my life, I worked in the print media hoping to get myself through to the TV. I managed to get some of my articles published with my own byline. ( Treeza can testify to this. hehe.)Well that's a story for another day. This particular one i wrote on 29/1/2014. Titled it THE COMMON BEACH WEAR IN RELATION TO OUR HEALTH, got itself published through so today I'll just give it a small touch. My articles always paved way in the LIFESTYLE column in the newspaper. Oh and by the way, Owiti Samwel, I call him Witty (I'll definitely write about him someday so relax), has been one of my loyal 'fans' throughout my print and radio experience. ( I just wanted to point it out to feel good. lol) #80403 Most of us choose to purchase used clothing for a variety of reasons. It can be down to them being cheaper than having to purchase new clothing fresh off the rack or it can be down to many having a preference of vintage clothing which has been pa...
