Feet Don't Fail Me Now.....

Feet don't fail me now....
Even when my heart decides to let me down....
Heart please understand....
My life can't always be in your hands.

Feet don't fail me now....
Even when my mind can't understand the "how"...
You know you can make it...
Keep me going even when my mind can't take it.

Feet don't fail me now...
Even when all i see is doubt...
Just one step to keep me from falling back,
Just one step....that's all i ask


So many times i get those "i don't want to get out of bed "moments, just by  thinking of a whole 18 hours i will be spending wide awake!!!JEEZ!!You feel so drowsy you can't even think straight and the only emotion you feel is SLEEP!!!!Then my feet start curling up again followed by ignoring the snooze on my alarm,wishing i had 20 more minutes,wishing i had slept earlier to sleep more,wishing it was some public holiday,wishing that my alarm clock was way ahead of time.....the wish list could go on and on.....Funny thing is that my feet just slowly do their thing and the next thing i know is that am dragging myself out of bed.So i realized one thing...we all got magic feet!!! 


When i can't think straight,when i don't feel alright..i can always trust my feet to get me going.Moral of the story,..all it takes  is just a lil push out of our ownselves.We will always have a struggle to get out of our own doubts and reluctance to do something,but if we just do one tinsy bit of an effort we than realize that its not so bad after all....FEET DON'T FAIL ME NOW!!

A million tears in a thousand hills

It's hard to forget something that turns your life upside down ,it's harder still  not to wonder how life would have been like growing up in the land of a thousand hills..Sometimes am grateful that i was too young to know the evil that was happening during the Rwandan Genocide..then at other times i keep picturing the lives torn apart and destroyed by the wave of tribal hate. Its during such  times that i realize that the impact of such an atrocity is far greater than remembering every single act committed. My memories for the 1994 Rwandan Genocide are like a blank page slowly being filled by the stories  am told..endless accounts of nights of terror and days of struggle.Some lived to tell their stories while others had nothing but a corpse to re-tell their 100 days of horror.The one thing that  has always disturbed my conscious was the question why?Why shed the blood?Why let innocent lives get tortured ?Why kill another just like you? It's like a story of t...

19 years later..

The past three weeks of my life have been a dream come true...not because i have stumbled into a load of cash or become a celebrity overnight. I have done nothing that seems out of the ordinary, but this event has and will forever  change my life.I have  no idea how to put it all in writing cause sometimes it still feels unreal. That dream came when i arrived in the land of a thousand hills,my home country Rwanda! I packed my bags so fast(still in shock).I got  on a bus(still in shock)n i saw my home country..still in shock!! It happened so fast and time has gone so fast..after 19 years of being away from a country i can hardly call home,i finally got to see where i was from,its like knowing a part of yourself that you didn't get a chance to live out. I won't deny that i  missed home,sometimes it felt( and still does) like i was a foreigner in my own home,everyone speaks the same language that am  able to speak but when i try to speak,it sounds so foreign!I...

In another life...

"I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us" If these words were sang as a  sort of world anthem,then i think the world would be a much better place in some ways.I heard the song over the weekend and just one listen to it was enough to get my mind buzzing and for some time now i had never really found a song to say just what  i felt until i heard B.O.B on the radio rapping it out for the whole world to hear. So this morning,thanks to google i just found out that there are close to 7 billion people in the world...and am one of them!!So why in the world would such a song be of any help to me when am faced with this huge number of strangers i call my fellow human beings??How is it possible that in my own little ,maybe even meaningless capacity, i  could help  so many( 7 billion!!!!)???....but when i heard the chorus to this song  "I wish I was strong enough to lift not one bu...
