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.

what do your friends say about you?

In this world there are so many choices one can choose. When you choose wrong friends chances are you might mess your life. I am glad for the gift of friendship that God has blessed me with these two wonderful and God fearing women,  Anna Shayo and Gertrude Mallya. Our journey started in 1993 when we both went to Weruweru High School. Despite the different directions that life took us to,  but when we reunited it was as if there was no gap in between.  You have been more than friends, sisters and I can not imagine life without one of you. Together we talk,  laugh, mourn and become young girls again. We have come too far for me not to cherish this bond. I can not say I love you enough because I think what I feel is more than love. I wish you all a very long, happy, healthy, wealthy and peaceful life filled with God’s blessings. May God bless you abundantly with all that your hearts ‘ desires and also may he bless you with all that he knows you need but you don’t know. You are my friends, sisters and companions and your worth and value to me can only be measured by my heart. I loved you yesterday, love you today and will spend the rest of my life loving and praying for you.  Happy birthday wapenzi wangu na wala nundu wenzangu Anna and Gertrude. You bring so much joy in my life. May God’s goodness, mercy and peace surround you all the days of your lives! …by Foster M.MFB_IMG_1458760650455

Alpha’s view:……… “I can not say I love you enough because I think what I feel is more than love.”!! Mmh! Do you have friends? What do they say about you? Have you wonder about it?….Evaluate your friendship it’s not too late!

David Latterman miezi 11 baada ya kustahafu…!

Screenshot_2016-03-23-14-40-25-1

Ni miezi 11 tangu kustahafu kwa kungwi wa talk show iliyo julikana kama “The Late Show”. Ameonekana leo akiwa akifanya mazoezi wakati akiwa vacation. David, ameonekana tofauti sana na jinsi alivyo zoeleka (tazama Video ?). Ameongezeka sana, kafuga ndevu, naule u-smart wake umeisha kabisa.

Kuna professor mmoja hivi alisema kama mtu umekuwa ukifanya kazi kwa muda mrefu na ukaamua kustahafu ni vizuri kuwa na ‘plan B’ ambayo itakuwa unafanya ili ku keep your mind fresh and a little bit busy. Lasivyo utajikuta unaugua au kufa haraka sana. Kwa mfano kuwa na vacation plan, utumie muda wako wa kustahafu kuona dunia. Au kuwa una volunteer kazi somewhere yani kitu fulani cha kukufanya una amka na kutoka ndani ya nyumba. Pia mazoezi ni muhimu…………Screenshot_2016-03-23-19-20-11-1anyway, we wish him the best!

Feather pulled from baby Mya

Mother Saw Something Strange On Her Baby’s Neck. What Actually Came Out Is Shocking. All Parents Should See This …… Screenshot_2016-03-22-13-47-33-1

There are many strange things happening around the world which cannot be explained.  That is why we can say that this world and universe are hiding mysteries in which it is hard to believe even if they happen right before our nose. Often we are left in shock and speechless.

https://youtu.be/kSZxVLUNEaI

Mya’s story is quite a mystery.  One day she woke up with a swelling on her cheek and neck area. At first her parents thought that it was a swollen gland but they took her to a pediatrician. The doctor said that it was probably a minor infection and the body will be able to defeat it by itself. So Mya was sent home. After a few days, the swelling was still there so they visited the doctor again. The doctor noticed that something is sticking out from Mya’s cheek. Again, they thought that it was a pimple but it was growing bigger every day.

Can you imagine how shocked they were, when they found out that it was actually a feather? Everyone was asking how this could be possible? Was it due to GMO causing mutation or because of radiation? No one can say for sure but watch the video and you can find some logical explanation!

Hot shot of the day

FB_IMG_1458631238733Haijalishi unatoka wapi bali unapokwenda. Nyota njema huonekana asubuhi na hung’aa gizani!! Mungu mjalie huyu mtoto ili kesho aweze kutoka katika mazingira haya yaliyo duni. Mjalie awe kiongozi mkubwa popote pale atakapo kuwa. Akafundishe watu elimu ya dunia na elimu ya kimbingu. Akatawale tawala zote za inchi atokayo. Katika jina la Yesu, Amen!
