Head Rush!!

Lately i've been feeling like this life is taking me too fast,litetrally!!!!I have  3 weeks  left to the end of a semester which  i hardly noticed was  passing by so fast.My head has a "to-do-list" that seems endless. But despite the chaos ,i will still learn to live with the lyrics that come from my heart,somehow they give me a  time-out  from all the pressure.When the words come i write, and last night they came to me in a rush!


EVERYBODY FALLS AT SOME POINT,
BUT IF FALLING MEANS  NEVER COMING BACK UP,
THEN I’D RATHER CHOOSE TO NEVER FALL.
BUT IF FALLING MEANS  I CAN COME BACK UP,
THEN I’D RATHER CHOOSE TO  RISE UP,
STAND TALL,EVEN WHEN IT’S HARD TO  GET UP.
AFTER ALL, IT’S WHEN AM DOWN THAT I CAN ALWAYS LOOK UP!
IN THE END,THINGS WILL LOOK UP!

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...

Boxed in...

" Thinking out of the box, thinking like there's no box "..who cares?????  example of  wise words that I have ignored  a thousand times simply because they are money-making ideas for  inspirational gurus fixed on creating  bestselling  mantras.They give you that "i-can-do-anything" willpower which slowly fades into a  "maybe-i-can't-do-that" motto.  I am not writing this down to discredit these wise adages or worse still, to count the number of times i have ignored these words .But am writing this because i had the most unusual wake-up call,from one of these bestselling jingles "Think outside the box" Let's hit rewind and go back to a few weeks ago...it was back to class and that feeling of "am-not-ready-for-school" was nagging at me.3 months of internship,and a week to rest( which was  recuperation period from tonsils), and now back to school with a project proposal due in a week.Complaining is so easy when you have the ...

My Words My Legacy

There comes a time in life when  waking up early  to write a blog post simply means  that the most important things in life are  never hard to find ,that writing down thoughts can be treasured happy moments of my life..AND THAT the mystery behind the unknown is the unknown itself,   THAT things never work out because other things needed to work out instead,   THAT finding yourself is never about you, THAT working hard only pays off when you are truly happy with what you’ve accomplished,   THAT   hard times only last as long as the good times, THAT   you will never understand everyone and not everyone will understand you, THAT love is a choice and not an emotion, THAT   craziness is just a measure of how different humans are,           THAT   life always has a lesson in store for you   even if you realize it 10 years down the line, THAT any famil...
