It was on a day like this- with a brief fall of precipitation. When I was approached by a fine young man while I was shopping for vegetables from the market on my way to the taxi rank. I prefer a day like this for vegetable shopping. It gets busy and overcrowded on a hot day. I had a bag around my right shoulder, plastic bags on both my hands, stuffed and heavy with fresh vegetables from the street market tables. This man- well, for a moment, afar I thought he was. He greeted me "Sawbona sis wami, unjani?" While I was trying to respond to the greeting I was pleasently interupted by the air that sweeped the scent of his perfume from where he stood right to my face, leaving me with goose- bumps and a motivation to respond immediately with a polite, low-toned "I'm okay and how are you ?" accompanied with a smile. Silly I know, but after that I also noticed how white his teeth were and how extremely clean he was. He had dressed well for the weather and looked as if he had been in an office all day. Exceptionally neat! I was willing to engage in a conversation with this man. I mean, why not? I was smitten! And so we did, we conversed as we walked together to the taxi rank with giggles in the midst. It was a good conversation, for a 10 minutes walk to the rank that I would normally take alone with disturbing thoughts in my head and a list of deadlines depriving me of my liesure time. Hmm...And I was thinking I would find someone like this somewhere around Gateway, this was the least expected setting. Before I knew it, the walk was over. I had to get inside the taxi that would take me back to my normal life. As I stopped to say goodbye I realized I was still carrying the heavy plastic bags with vegetables in both of my hands and I was huffing and puffing as well. I was tired, my other hand was burning too, one bag was heavier than the other and it virtually cut through my skin. He then asked for my cellphone number, "So we can meet again and get to know each other more, you are beautiful, full of life and I would like to have a woman like you in my own life," he said. This time I was reluctant to smile, in my head I was worried. There was something wrong with this man. If I even consider giving him my cellphone number it would be the end of my happiness. My friend, I refused to give him my number. I couldn't hide the truth from him, I wanted him to understand my frustration and worry. So that one day he would never do it to another woman, in any kind of way. I told him I would not give him my number because he had failed to help me with the vegetable bags I was carrying on our way to the taxi rank. I wouldn't want to give my number to a man of such character. I give my number to gentlemen who know and understand the worth of a woman. He giggled for seconds, he probably thought I was joking. I then smiled, "Goodbye!" I said as I grabbed the vegetable bags from the ground and made my way to the taxi. It can never be the scent, nor the sense of style, the excent or words you utter. You can approah me looking like Kanye West jumping off his private jet but If you cannot realize that I have a burden and lend a helping hand like a normal human being whose hands are empty and free then I refuse to start any form of relationship with you. I interact with human beings not something in between. You couldn't help me with my vegetable bags, a simple thing such as that and you want me to give you my cellphone number? Why because you are good looking and you smell good? Really? I wont enter that pit hole with both of my eyes open. |
Fist and an awesome kick will keep that woman away from your hair. When it is time to fight you throw one godly fist and see how that woman will get to your hair, fist and move away and as they come with their nails kick below and fist again if you have to. Do not let another woman touch your hair when you're not at the salon. This whole hair business will cause unecessary things in a fight like ending up naked in the streets, fist and move away. There is no time for hugging in a situation like this. Stop talking, stop slapping and using nails. Fist and keep your distance. |

I sometimes go through unbearable situations in my life, situations that I had created for myself that are quite excruciating. During the cause of this agony and misery everything seems impossible to mend. I drown myself in a pool of mess that is even impossible to swim through. Soon after this realization, I sat and drenched myself in deep thoughts. Suddenly it hit me that it is not only other people (those with whom we interact with) that can create situations in our lives that are extremely difficult. Quite often we bring these predicaments upon ourselves." We are quite capable of single handedly creating hardship for ourselves. You can independently ruin your own life. However, sometimes you can indeed do it with the help of your enemies. Nonetheless, quite often, the master mind behind the plot can be you.This rapidly reminded me of the notion that says: 'Trust nobody but yourself' which I strongly doubt. I doubt this philosophy or belief because life has taught me that even you can prove to be your worst and greatest enemy. You can disappoint yourself by letting yourself down, and you will not believe how well you can do it, sometimes even better than your enemies can. When the source of a particular problem has been eradicated, there should be change. There should be improvement. There should be less inconvenience. There should at least be rekindled eagerness for what you've always aspired for since you have now escaped what was holding you back from realising your goal. If all this does not happen, then all that reshuffling of people in your life would have been in vain. You see... Introspection is necessary at all times: Is your life still a mess even though you have eliminated all the people that you claim were stifling your progress? If yes, then who is the real enemy here? |
