A Changed Perspective




It is crazy how the world will make you think that if you are always different, you will either be among those who have made or lost it. I mean in terms of how you appear in front of people, your background, daily routines, places you have been to, offices you sat in, etc. 

This picture was taken some weeks ago but when I looked at it again last night, I realised something really beautiful. Look at the two other people in it, wearing almost the same color as mine. Isn’t their presence in white adding to the beauty of the picture or that place depending on what interests you the most? 


Yet we always want to wear something so we won’t look like any other person, or we just want to be smart but still different. Specifically for pictures, how often do we sweat in search for empty spots assuming that it is the only way we shall end up with a perfect picture? There is surely no problem in wanting things to be different, it is just detrimental when you feel you can’t afford to be different as much as you may want. Thus, costing us our peace.


What I am saying is, life is not always about making it to the top of this world’s threshold. If we want to make life easy, let us try dethroning what has already been set as appealing to the whole world. And Changing Our Perspective towards what we call ‘making it’ will probably conceive a long lasting sense of satisfaction. This is surely not everything but one that adds up to the thousands for a peaceful lifestyle.

Comme Un Adulte

Image
Je me souviens de mensonges que j’ai crus étant enfant! Qu’il n’y avait aucun adulte qui pleure, que personne ne peut se perdre ou échouer à tel ou tel âge. Les gens semblaient si forts et je croyais que cette étape n'avait pas de situations qui mène à être si faible. J’avais une image de qui et que chacun des adultes doit avoir et être.   Avec les jours, je me rends compte que ce n'est sûrement pas vrai.  C'était et ce sera les nuits que j’ai passées entre d’étudier, fêter des anniversaires, visiter les villes, les amis et des familles. Les gens que je connais et les autres que je rencontrerai, ma personnalité, ma spiritualité, mes finances, mon passé et mon présent. Les écoles et les cours que j’ai pris. Les différents plats que j’ai essayés, mes déjeuners, mes fruits préférés, le temps que je passe dans la cuisine et tous ceux que je peux préparer. C’est l’amour que je reçois de ma famille et mes amis. C’est toujours mes efforts de les aimer en retour. Les histoires qu...

HEROES' DAY- Rwanda.

Today, it’s our Heroes’ day. And what an honor and pride it is to be Rwandan. But again, this day reminds me of His Excellency Paul Kagame’s response when he was once asked about how proud it makes him to be part of a Noble bloodline- where there were lots of kings who came from his family’s lineage on both his Father’s and mother’s side. (In the book ‘Conversations with the President of Rwanda’) I will quote H.E’s answer: ‘‘Ideologically, I’m at odds with being proud of such things. Let me not be misunderstood: I’m very proud of who I am. As for the sense of being part of something, like a noble ancestry, although it is nothing of my doing, I accept it as my own and am proud of my heritage, but I’m not going to vaunt it. If I were to boast about something, which I still wouldn't under the circumstances, I would boast about something I have achieved on my own. Something I have accomplished, despite whatever challenges or obstacles that may have come my way. That's a different k...

Love I Pray(ed) For

Love that temporarily sees the bad and permanently longs for the good. And just like I hope for Spring during the Winter, I want the kind of love that will still see success in their failures. Love whose focus is on ‘strengths’ and not their ‘weaknesses’. The kind of love that will always boost my pride for them, The kind of love that won’t let me easily give up on them, I want that kind of love that wishes good for them even after parting ways. The kind of love that won’t grant peace within as strangers will be supporting them before I do, the kind of love that celebrates them even in their absence. I don’t want to just listen to them from afar but to be present. Love that won’t just seek their approval, but their genuine love. The kind of love that does not hold me in captivity like lions in the Circus but is a light to my freedom, I want that kind of love that will always push me to do right. That Love that will treat them the same way I would want to be treated.
