The Unfolding Scars

Photo courtesy of Savannah Class / Unsplash For the longest time, I have put on a face, tried to look okay, and found comfort in self-development articles. 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.

Dealing with Demotivation

 Hello, friend.

How are you doing? As for me, I’ve been doing great. Oops, I am lying, just a little good. Great is an overstatement. So yeah, for a while now, I have been feeling unmotivated, lazy, and with no direction. 

I still don’t know what my path is, but I believe every day am a step closer to finding out. And if you are wondering how, it's by experimenting. But honestly, that’s a façade. I don’t know what I am experimenting with because I am still freelancing. 

I have been looking for a job, and as you all know, there is a high unemployment rate. It's challenging. So, I have gotten near nowhere to a job. 

For a moment, I was just tired of writing and feeling that it was not my thing. I would even turn down tasks due to that sluggish and worn-out mood. Honestly, I did not need a break because I took it before this. I just needed a push or a drive to do more. Thanks to a friend who made me understand that. 

The reason I was feeling unmotivated was that I was not progressing from where I was. And tasks were even tremendously reducing. I was not earning for a while, and yeah, who wouldn’t feel detached. 

However, I have realized that times do get tough, and it's upon us to face them with courage and determination. I just spoke about everything that I felt to resolve some issues, and yeah, I hit the road again.  

So, I am currently in the disposition of getting right up to conquer and shine. Things might not be changing, but do not give up. "Itajipa tu," time yake. Everything will fall in place.

I felt stuck, not making any progress. But in a nutshell, the secret is to carry on. I will undoubtedly find my purpose one day, and so will you, who relates to this scenario. Slow but sure.

Thank you for your time, and I will be delighted to read your comments.

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. The experience was so captivating that I thought it would be best to put it on record. So, my friends and I went camping at Camp Ndunda Falls in Embu from Friday to Sunday. This was my first camping trip. It was also in honor of a friend's birthday. Simply a whole weekend with friends out there experiencing nature. It was one of a kind. We set off in the afternoon and arrived at around 7 pm. The reception right from the gate was at its best. Upon checking in, they did not waste time to give us a guide to help us settle; that is, to our tents, setting us a bonfire and leading us to where we had our supper. Talking of supper, they have flavorful meals to die for, especially their platters. We then got ourselves psyched out for the weekend by jamming into some of our playlists and around a bonfire to sway the night aw...

3 Songs I Can't Get out of My Mind

Photo by Elice Moore from Unsplash.com Music is part of life and a kind of a free lifestyle anyone can access. The rhymes and beats ringing in our minds have a special kind of peace, relaxation, and refreshment . These effects of music trigger one to turn on their playlists or radio while cooking, cleaning, or doing other manual work, or while sitting alone in a vehicle traveling, when bored, among others. The thrill and enchantment help boost mood. Alongside that, the music carries important messages as most artists speak their minds in their songs. About 68 percent of adults aged 18-34 years old listen to music every day. I have come up with a list of 3 songs I can't get out of my mind for like a month. These songs are not particularly new but have a special place in my heart. 1. Déjà vu by Naika  Déjà vu  is on top of my list. I heard a clip of this song a few months ago, but I just passed through it. I came across the artist, Naika , and the entire piece recently, and oh...
