It's exactly three years since I moved out.I was telling a
friend the bedsitter I first lived in did not have even telecommunication
network.No network no problem.With all the drama,the flooding by open
taps,I still had reasons to be grateful to God.I moved out with a bag
and two pairs of shoes.This was big, I remember how I called guys from
the cell I was a member of in church,we celebrated the 'big step' with
popcorn and juice(diluted Savannah juice). No iron box,nor gas
cylinder..but I was contented.I had not even planned of owning a TV any
sooner.Being a sound tech I had a 2.1 creative sub woofer and my
laptop.My house must have music.Am poor with movies,in fact today I
watched(a repeat) of the movie 'Letters to God' ,I mean this is the only
movie I've watched this year.Wait.Music,that's my thing,I can tell you
the title,artiste and album of almost any christian song.As if that is
not enough I would even know different renditions of the same
song...acoustic versions,covers etc.I don't even struggle for a
minute.So we can be this different.
Back to my three years of having moved out.I've learnt a lot of stuff,from being responsible and general discipline.Responsibility comes in a package labelled 'freedom'. We long for freedom only to find it's total responsibility.Some of the things I purposed is general cleaning,especially utensils.I've maintained my bylaws that govern my conduct in the kitchen.I set rules which I have to obey,to stay in a clean environment.
The journey has had it's ups and downs but am so grateful am here.I've made good and bad decisions,am an imperfect human but with the mistakes great lessons have been learnt.Having worked in an audit office it has equipped me with great skills.I miss my former colleagues,how we would call each other funny names,this was family..I miss our 'bouncing boss'. His humility.You could easily mistake our names because of how we called each others names and the nicknames.There's this dude who called me Wawireristic and I called him Muraguristic,then this old colleague who called the name Wawire as if they were three names,very slow.''Wawire fast track that report'',I miss such from our boss.We respected him.There is a lady we referred to as mama county,you know those people who can even detect germs with naked eyes?..hehe,she would arrange the office.Bird/aeroplane(Ndege) was the opposite,he could not even remove dirt after sharpening a pencil.'Chinkororo' and football he loved manchester.Ann aka 'Annriste' is a lastborn like me..
Of all people I've worked with that office was great,everybody was happy even when I bought a small TV.In May everyone went to differet workplaces..I moved too.It was a great season with them.
Hey 2016 is here the bell has rang,to signify the last lap,the year had it's fair share of challenges and achievements.The second half was the toughest getting to adjust to a lot of stuff happening in my life,but God's grace has been sufficient.All in all God is good.
One final thing am grateful for you,yes you who is reading this(neighbours)..I mean even those who comment when we meet..hehe,so glad that we laugh and learn.However how the year has been remember that ''ua mende ua panya,mwaka mzima utakaa bila kuona mende...'' is a true statement because I bought it in february,it december and that 'mwaka mzima' thing seems true,the cockroaches are absent still.That said our cat still does excellent work.
Splendid week ya'all.
