I am Growing Wiser

Hoooo! 

I had promised to be writing more often this year even if it means sneaking from work and doing a short post. Like a really short piece. One I could reread through crossing Uhuru Highway from Kenyatta Avenue right into Uhuru Park. That would be a very unwise move I know. I wouldn't try or ask anyone to do this. 

Anyway, growing up I had always wished to have a slenderer face. Then i got to college, and it was such a relief when i saw my round faced friends with photos of them wearing a much slenderer face....I asked what it was and they told me photo effects on their phones. I bought a phone that could afford some space for such an app but it's tiring to take 79 selfies, pull one and try to edit it. One would ask, oh you really do that? Oh yes i have done this before. And then I heard there's this thing when doing make up referred to as, contouring the cheeks... okay let's not go there coz i wouldn't try.

On to the real story, now that I am growing wiser, I have started seeing my cheek bones once in a while when I wash my face in the morning. A part of me feels the water I am taking is finally coming through for me but another silent voice tells me it's a sign i am growing old.Oh so Scary! And that my little-plus size self is preparing to go to the dust. It is .. oh yes it is scary to think along these line but what is life for? We live to die. Therefore, we should wake up knowing... oh! this is another day to prepare for when i will die. Just one of those random thoughts that comes to my mind and i think to write down.

Hope you do prepare for yours too because for sure that day is coming, and if our Lord comes before that day, we shall all be changed to meet HIM in the air.
