Venecity Chronicles

  Its M😊nday, kama kawa, I will remind you to be awes😍me. Take your time to set a confounding tone for the week. Things may be tough but remember Great people are often prepared for great works by great trials #Positive Vibes #Happy Monday

Its a beautiful evening! The heat of the day has receded to a solacing warmth. The sunset has occurred and the colours of the hotel verandah are softened from the sunshine loosing its brightness. I drift my eyes to the cool glass of cocktail juice in my hand and the new layer of gel polish that enables me realize that the day's duties are over. However, I have a meeting with Madam Susan who is helping me with some paper work that I need to beat a deadline in two days. Madam Susan is a busy consultant and half of the time, she is on phone. I am curious to know the airtime package she uses. Seemingly, Ms. Susan is a Safaricom registered customer who is neither aware about Post-pay plan nor All in One monthly data package . Approximately, Ms. Susan uses Ksh. 250 - 500 airtime on a daily basis. This is damn expensive, right?  I definitely took my time to explain to her about these economical packages and you can be damn sure that Ms. Susan was elated on discovering them. She enro...

I bet you are all familiar with the blue Monday feeling😔. Isn’t Monday a felon?   I mentally prepare myself to always appreciate Mondays because I can never do anything about it however much I may hate them. Either way, every day can never be a Sunday! Trust me, this feeling has got nothing to do with the type of job you attend to! I am aware of people who hold rather gratifying jobs but hey, they still do not look forward to Mondays either😅. Monday has to do  with the transition from leisure time to work time,  just like a fast-moving car and the change of gears😂😂. It takes some time to adapt into the flow of the mundane work. Its not like a Thursday evening where I shout the opposite, "Thank God it's Friday😊😊." The transition from work to leisure is spectacular than the later. This particular Monday was a bit unique, thanks to this particular customer experience that lit the day😀. Let me take a moment to appreciate God's creation. Waswahili husema kuwa kizur...

The sky, mid-afternoon, a beautiful canvas graced with sky blues and pure milky whites. The blue in the depths beyond and the smooth, rounded, sugary sweet clouds in the foreground; July evenings were made to be like this. Stained white wooden porches, green plastic lawn and garden chairs and a yellow butterfly dancing above the steamy urban pavement with an invisible partner to a cool made up song. I have a date with my long lost high school best friend Chimea. How about a catch up meeting accompanied with some milk shake or something?                                                         suu_makeup_studio Sitting on the porch waiting for Chimea, a chocolate lady with damply tangled, curly shiny, artfully messy and magnificently thick African hair, arrives, frolicking, bursting with energy like a quarter machine bouncy ball. Basking in the del...

Yesternight, I came across a clip that had a message that hit me so deep yaani. Have you ever felt like you have been hit by a truck but now its a truck of content? A truck of deep words? Deep stuff?😅 Well, that was it and I was like, why cant I be generous enough and serve you the content in my chronicles? It about to go down😊😊 Several times when we see a person who is doing anything exceptional in their lives, we say that they are graced by God. "His business is doing so well!", "He did so well in school", allow me to boldly say, its not favor, and it is not grace. WHY?  God's grace is not selective grace! It is abundant to all! But there is something called frustrating the grace of God. Being graced by God is God's investment in you😃. Being disciplined is your investment in yourself. In Philippians 4:13 Paul says, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. He is not talking about grace.  Philippians 4:13 encompasses discipline not gr...

Its been a minute! Its been a month, no, two months without serving you with the famous chronicles😢. It hasn't been easy but we have to pick our pieces and keep going, au sio😃. This season has confirmed to me that when you purpose to do something, you got to be intentional!!  Did I wish you a Happy New Month? Happy November Wadau😂. I trust that you are well and of course keeping safe, we can't afford to succumb to wave 2 after  coming out strong in wave 1 !!! Shuwalii Let November this. Lets do this 💪💪💪💪. I was curious enough to know the meaning of November and this is what google indicated; November is the month of transitioning between the rainy monsoon and the cold winter. The weather is delightful after the rains have settled with colder breeze but not harsh. It is also the last month in the Fall season. Now you understand the season we are in, I have a 'qwesheni', are you still skipping the year 2020?😞😞 I totally understand that life can be frustrating t...

  Wakurugenziiiiiiiiii 🤗🤗🤗 .....Hope this October is taking you well... regardless, like we said yesterday, we will do it on the HALLWAY in the meantime ☺️. Sasaaa, hadithi ninayowaletea, mtafurrahii😂😂😂😂...(to those who don't understand Swahili, I mean, it is party and it doesn't want anger😂😂😂). Watu wakujie lessons za Kiswahili...eeeeeh😅 Ayaaa, twende teketeke hadi tao (let's go hurriedly hurriedly to town🤭), well, allow me to do this thing in whatever language that I can, even if it's Kimeru, cause clearly if I go the English way, nitakupoteza, I will lost you🤦😂. This particular day was not one of my best days, first of all I had a bad day at work, secondly, it was too cold in town, thirdly the curfew is at 7pm and time is much gone, fourthly, ayam singo mpaka upepo ikipiga nasikia ikilia, "singooooo"😢. Too much problems on one person, right? 😂. Weeuh!  I pick my bag and head to the point I pick matatus that ply to my place. Guess what wadau,...
