BEYOND MY REACH.


Damn this sun is too hot, what the heck! It is like as if there are two suns out on a revenge mission with no mercy & taking no prisoners, just laying to waste all that is within its flaming rays. Dust is all over you can't even maintain a shine on you shoes, which end up looking like as if you work at a quarry & to top it all, you have to continuously take a sip of cold water to cool your body temperature. 

Arrrgh! This has just become another January of sorts with the scorching sun reaching its all time high. Hi there! How is the going? (Don't mind my venting it is this heat unleashing this verbal useless utterances). Any breakthroughs during the week so far? Nothing huuh! No worries, don't just throw in the towel yet, a greatness is upon you. As I was in a bus today in the morning, I was just amazed at the number of motor vehicles on the road both old & new.

The fancy new models intrigued me the most. I saw a fleet of the latest auto-mobiles and I was like, "Kwani ni  wapi watu wanapewa hizi magari hata mimi niende nikachukue yangu?". Everywhere I turned a beautiful mean road machine was just vrooming by. I recall when we were young and we used to count cars as they passed by, jibbing at each other saying, "hiyo ni yangu".

Such were the childish whims we had back then as our imagination ran wild & free, but now under the dawning of reality we must strive to earn that which we desire, one way or another. Knowing that the best way for one to predict his or her future is by creating it. Life has become quite unpredictable & the demands (wuuuuwiii) have sky rocketed to the roofs.

We are at times, envious of those around us & wish to have that which they possess. Which is not a bad motivation but come on! Shouldn't we have our own legacy in which we are known by & not be identified as being under the shadow of another. Anyway you know that which you desire in life, for to be the best you have to become better than the rest.

If you want to achieve greatness, test yourself through the good & bad times. No one is a loser, if you want to own your own empire you better learn to dig the dirt. Challenges are what make life interesting & overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. You need to know that the only thing that stands between you & your dream is the will to try & the belief that it is actually possible.

One of the philosophies that I think is crucial is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment. No road is too long for the one who advances slowly and does not hurry & no attainment is beyond ones reach who equips themselves with patience to achieve it.
