A word of wisdom

Stop calling people who don’t call you. Stop visiting people who don’t know where you live. Stop making time for people who don’t have time for you.  Stop spending on people who don’t spend on you. Stop thinking about people who don’t think about you. You will make yourself emotionally bankrupt.  You can love someone  from a distance and I’m not just talking about the romantic relationship but all relationships; friends, family, boyfriends. Treat people the way they treat you and stop over exerting yourself and giving love where it’s not returned.  Life is difficult enough without having to beg people for their love and attention. The least you can do for yourself is surround yourself with people who genuinely love and care about you. Most importantly surround yourself with people that don’t see you as an option. There’s  nothing worse than people treat you like you are replaceable.

Raha sana madada wakipendana na kufurahia mafanikio ya mwingine bila kinyongo chochote. Ndugu mnatakiwa kupendana kwa dhati kama hawa dada zangu, mnasaidiana, na kutiana moyo. Shida ya nduguyo ni yako, na furaha ya nduguyo ni yako! Wajaluo wana msemo mmoja ambao maana yake ni kuwa; ‘ndugu ndiyo anatakiwa afiche aibu ya ndugu yake. Kwani aibu ya ndugu yako ni yako’!….  hongereni sana mabinti wa mzee Kachare kwa kuwa mfano mzuri kwa wadogo zenu na watoto zetu. Nawatakieni kheri ya maandalizi ya siku ya Ijumaa Kuu na  Pasaka njema ❤❤ dada zangu!
