PROCRASTINATION

Procrastinate; to keep delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring:

Ok,this isn’t boring but i just got busy and keep pushing coming back here.I need healing,spiritually or emotionally to get over this deadly vice! How can i be such a mess? I am angry at myself. Enough of the excuses.

It is November(birth month) and i am not ready to go back to the vice. It actually took someone close to me to convince me so i could get back up. Special people,special month,special things;hakuna mchezo(no jokes)!

Whatever it is that you are putting on hold whether intentionally or unintentionally,go work on it. Is it someone you love,that job application you never delivered/sent,that project that’s been sitting on your desk,calling a loved one,working out,quitting that bad habit? Whatever it is,do it now because we have only today to live for since we are sure about it. We can’t rely on yesterday(it is gone) or tomorrow(it may never be yours) so QUIT POSTPONING things that matter and get going.

In this new month,promise yourself that you will do the best it takes to finish off whatever you had clumped.

Love,

November Baby.

FAR AWAY

Just far away was all I needed to get my head cleared of all the crap that was slowly eating away my joy. I have phobia for being away from home,I just can’t be far away from my comfort zones.

The deal was too juicy to let it pass . I even gave away my ticket . I didn’t see the reason why I had to go away yet I could sit home,watch movies,workout and hopefully all my worries would go away,hopefully,far away. I was wrong. Totally.

Another deal came up and I had to let my gird down. What’s wrong with me?? Can’t I just learn to let go of my fears?? I need serious help. Onto the ferry we all got. Did I mention how I can’t stand large water masses? The reason I can’t swim. This too,needs to go far away.

Ssese Island was the best place to get far away . We all need to get far away once in a while.

SECOND CHANCE(S)

Not the soap opera,a beg. The need to be pardoned and given opportunity to make up for our faults is vital. We are human after all and bound to fail,right?

This weekend got me thinking a lot about the second chances we give to people/opportunities. Is it worth it? Being surrounded by people of different personalities opened my mind to see beyond their plain/smiley/gloomy/disappointed faces. They could have gone through hell and back but who says they can’t hear out what triggered the fault!
A personal friend of mine intimated to me that he can only afford two second chances. To him,those are enough to get the offender to work their mess out. Not too bad. I thought. I can offer as many as the person needs but can’t get over the fact that someone messed up. 

However,second chances have their down side. One may take it for granted that you can always smile at their flaws. They forget that some imperfections are not perfect,him!

Whatever wrong they did,whatever led to the failure of that project,don’t back down at first instance; give it a second and even third  chance.

Till then,learn to give a second chance.

C’EST LA VIE

I was in the French class for two and a half years and this common phrase stuck with me. I wish I had stuck to Italian lessons,would be better by now but,that’s life.

I was away for a weekend with my friends. It was a beautiful time spent together but I barely had enough fun. My phones kept buzzing and bad news came through;my old man went into coma. Not fair at all,is it? But that’s life.

It’s also life when others complain yet some are content with their life situations. For example, as we complained of low yet delayed salary, a friend of ours was content with their very low salary. She totally is comfortable but I learnt a lesson from her,just depend within your means and all will work out. Yes,such is life.
And then love happens. You believe you have found “The One” only for them to walk out on you a few months later without explanation. Or even worse, develop a character you can barely stand. Well,that’s life.

Whatever it is you have or are going through, it is all about life . However how you handle it matters . There will be ups and downs but it will all be life.

Listen to Frank Sinatra’s “That’s Life” and you will be fine.

And I must sign off. That’s life.
