K.I.S.S ! K.I.S.S !!!!



“Speak now or forever hold your peace!!”  My peace has been held for like 4 weeks now, I have had no inspiration AT ALL for writing!!But  this wedding between me and silence ends today! I have had too many topics suggested to me  ,ranging from relationships to my phobia of taking any kind of medicinal pills. But I won’t even dare start on my lifelong fears let alone speak about matters of the heart.Sooo..ooo..i will K.I.S.S my way into writing this post.

In case you are wondering about the kiss,I have my dearest big brother to thank for such wisdom. In his words,all I had to do was Keep It Simple Stupid when my brain went on strike (he probably won’t even remember giving me this piece of advice while I was in my final year of high school) but it works!


Trying to find the magic
Trying to write a classic
Waste-bin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later

These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

That's all I got to say,
Can't think of a better way,
And that's all I've got to say,
I love you, is that okay

Natasha Bedingfield”THESE WORDS”

Those lyrics up there make the keeping it simple philosophy one of the most ingenious ways of living life. Sometimes I think am one of the insane people of our times,simply because every word in a song is a  message about life (lyrical life) no matter how absurd or silly it is. Those words up there look like this in my mind:
Keep it simple,don’t be stupid to try making a show of things, in the end every moment passes by. Lasting moments are those that hold meaning to their true purpose.

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...

Taking back memories .... 19 YEARS LATER PART 4

   For the past two and a half   months,   I have gone through some normal moments and some extraordinary ones too.Writing about my experience back home in Rwanda has been the hardest to capture, from the point of view of some people it may seem like a normal visit ( sometimes that’s what I think too) but other times which seem like precious moments hidden somewhere in my mind, the experience has been exteraordinary!! Finding the right words won’t cut it, yet not finding the right words wouldn’t do justice to some of those precious moments.    Going back to Gitarama was probably the climax of my visit, I went back home and by home I mean where I was raised for 2 years…where my parents were born,where it all began!! Driving through that countryside was like walking through a time machine ,the only difference was that I had no idea of what moment in time I had gone back to.   It has taken me a week  to write this down a...

Don't break my heart...

From the moment i loved you, I was afraid to say these words, But deep down i could feel it,and i knew it... Don't break my heart.. Don't tear me apart... With you am happy, That's how i know am lucky.. Without you,i am without me Don't break my heart... Don't tear me apart... Even though i know you will... This is no love poem,or else i'd have poured my whole heart out in my longest post ever!!!But i know how it looks and sounds,it's simply my love poem to this beauty called life...I heard a song this morning by Gym Class Heroes "Get Your A** Back Home" not the best title to a song(i know) but this line kept haunting me all morning "this type of life didn't come with instructions" By now if you reading this and thinking ,"like duh!!who din't know that??" hold onto that thought for just a bit. This is one of the most obvious facts:The  things that life can throws at us,sometimes can...
