The Unfolding Scars

Well today, I just realize there is just some internal damage resting inside that erupts in the worst moments of life. Have you heard of this person who just finds peace in solitude, always staying locked at home, with a mirror as a best friend and comfort? That's a self-description. And just as a friend, there are days you don't get along with the image on the other side of the mirror. So, there I sit looking at the image on the other side of the mirror. Most times I see potential in the person but other times, it just shows how broken the person is. Your smile does crazy things with it but shows no sympathy when you are at the worst. However, I tend to believe I am my best comfort. Other than the mirror is a mind always racing with thoughts and fantasies. Filled with words and events in reality I cannot do. At some point, ...

My Latest Travel Experience

  Adventure at Camp Ndunda As I sat on my bed thinking of what to publish in my next post, I couldn’t help but obey the after-effects of my excursion last weekend.

Anyways the reason for writing about this topic is due to a sequence of related thoughts and voices of it around me recently.  First of all am an overthinker, which pisses me off most times. Again, on Sunday in church, the preaching was about bracing ourselves not minding others' judgment. Also, yesterday I came across a quote over the internet that says we are our prisons by clouding our judgment. And hell yeah, I decided to let myself get over the issue through my blog. You can thank the sequence for bringing me back to my blog.  So, overthinking situations is part of most of us, and we often find it difficult not to over-analyze situations. Many tell us, be kind to yourselves, but it naturally doesn’t happen. But I hope this post will help lessen the outlook, es...
