The statute of limitations has expired on most of our childhood trauma

The stories of our lives, are far from being fixed narratives, are under steady reconsideration. The slim threads of causality are rewoven and reinterpreted as we attempt to explain to ourselves and others how we became the people we are today. 

Like many others, I did not have a blissful childhood, but I have managed to make a far better life for myself and I don’t need anyone to take me back and remind me how bad my childhood was. I have learnt to let the past be, by letting go of the dark clouds. The challenges I encountered while growing up and all the family politics. 

At this moment I am making something of what I have, and enjoying the beauty of life.

Only bad things happen quickly

I guess this statement is true, unfortunately no one wishes for bad things to happen to them. I always center my mind on good things only, even though I sometimes leave a room for disappointment yet don’t allow it to occupy the whole space. 

A friend of mine got robbed at gunpoint just after she spoke to her dad on the phone, they took her cellphone. Come to think of the impact the robbery left on her. One minute you are happy and the next it’s all gone. This experience has taught me to treasure everything that makes me happy.  

I have learnt to deal with bad things in a positive manner, and stopped questioning “Why me”, who then?

Now I regard bad things as an experience that most of us must go through.

Watch this space

When we all grow up we have things that we desire to have, well mine has been the Porsche cayenne since I have laid my eyes on that beautiful machine.  I have gone to an extent that I asked my sister that we go test drive it and she agreed to my plea. 

Now I have to work smart to make sure I make my dream come true.........

If not now, when?

Let’s be honest, doing anything meaningful is difficult, because if it was easy everyone would do it. I have been postponing to blog yet I know how important it is to me and my career. Today I have taken a stand, and say no to lazy blogger Nontando. 

I saw the need of speeding up the process, find meaningful things to blog about and do an in-depth research for any chosen topic. In few years from now I don’t want to sit and think that if I had given my writing a chance I would have been far by now. The blogging process it’s a goal that I must achieve, and failing to do so, I will be failing myself for not trying. 

One has to take responsibility of their life, stop making excuses on working on that meaningful thing that you have always been postponing and wanted to do. Get whatever you need to meet the challenge, and your plan must work for you.

Time or Money?

People are still stuck up with the old saying “Time is money”. Well I would like to differ with that. In my personal outlook, we will forever exchange our precious time for money that does not determine the sentimental value time has; it still remain our most humble asset than money. 

We can spend money to improve our health and hence extend our lives, but money cannot reclaim lost time. On the other hand, time can be used to regain lost money. And so, time and money are not compatible. Therefore, time is not money and money is not time.

We are alive for a very short period of time. Some of us have less time than others, and most of us do not know how much time we have left. Our time cannot be replaced; as a result our time is our most limited resource. For that reason, time is our most valuable asset, so use your time wisely.
