The Savior of the Broken

 

I thought I would do another post, cause, I just got an inspiration for another post. It’s still about life. But I was listening through a few new songs, because the majority of my writing is inspired by music. One of the lines in the song, ( Black Parade My Chemical Romance) said, Will you be the savior of the broken? And it made me think, had I ever noticed, that most songs nowadays, are about carrying on, pulling through, and following our dreams. And I listened to my favorite songs at the moment, and they were. I know that the parents of kids now think that music nowadays is inappropriate, and rude. And yes some of it is. But the act is, that this generation has to fill in the cracks of the generations before us. And with the way the world has developed, it is a heavy load to carry.  But now, with all the social networking sites, the world has never been so connected, its easier to achieve your dreams. It’s possible. As much as parents and the older generations can criticize the new generation, we have a better chance at life than them. People are so connected, even if they have never seen each-other, they still have connections, through music. Music is becoming the soul of connecting to other people. Yes, we spend so much time in our rooms, with headphones on and our faces stuck to a laptop or a mobile, we are still connected to our friends. More and more kids are realizing that they only have one life, and they don’t have time to mess it up, because we have to be ready to take the responsibility for our countries, our families, and our human race, because the only race is the human race. So, without music, we wouldn’t have words to motivate us to keep moving forward. Courage to do what you believe in is given to us by different things. For me, my courage comes from art, books, music, and poetry. For me, music is what connects us all

Living in the Present

Hey guys,

Sorry I’ve disappeared for a while, I think this year is more hectic than any other, or maybe its just the fact I’m really getting into the routine of being in high school. I think it’s just the fact it feels like just yesterday I was a little kid in year 3, wishing I could grow up as fast as I could. And sometimes, I remember when I used to look up to girls in year 8 and find them scary, but to me they were also someone I wanted to be. I think I’ve learned my lesson. That sometimes growing up isn’t the best thing ever. And today I made my mind up to take it one day at a time, and try to remember every moment. Cause there will only be one day like today, and only one day like tomorrow. So, to all those kids who, like me, want to grow up fast, don’t try and rush through your childhood, because, as soon as it’s over, you’ll miss it. But there still is and always will be a good side to growing up. Like today, when I was younger, I’d always wanted to be part of a senior school production, and now I am. And I realized that, I could never have imagined how amazing it would feel when you do your last performance. It is like you feel like you’ve achieved something. 
Another thing I realized today, was that,  when we do make the mistake of trying to get life to rush forward. We regret is, and spend our time trying to remember what it was like, and trying to remember all the good and bad times. And even when our past is filled with mostly happy memories,  our minds seem to automatically pick the saddest memories, and we dwell on them, and let the time pass without us even noticing. I’m not saying to forget the past, and I’m not saying to never plan for the future. But life needs balance, and it has takes me this past year to realize that. I spent my first year of high school thinking of how lonely I had felt in Junior school, and that only made me feel lonelier. But over the summer, I think I realized that I needed to stop living in At the beginning of the new school year, I decided to try and forget the bad things people had done to me in the past, and start again, because every day is another chance to change what we did wrong in the past. I did try to change my faults, and I think I succeeded  because in my entire life I have never achieved so much, or made so many new friends, in only one year. I think, my point is. There is no point staying in the past, because, it’s already gone, and you can’t change it, but you can accept it, but there is no point living in the future, because, it is not here yet, and we can’t change what is going to happen to us. I believe that we do all have a destiny, and that is something we can’t change. Our lives are like books, they’ve been written, but we are still in the process of reading them. So, don’t live in the past, but don’t live in the future. Live in the present, because you only have one life, and it is a very short one, but if we make the right choices, we will only need to live once. I hope you take something out of this. And thanks if you did read all the way through. I wouldn’t write if I didn’t have such wonderful readers.

Hi again

Hi guys,
I’m back after an age again. We went to London yesterday on a trip, and had a lot of fun. Me and my mum had been watching the Kenyan elections a lot recently, I loved it. I think I I like a lot of politics, but you probably already know that. Even I f nobody likes listening to me going on about politics, I still will. Kenyatta won the elections, so I was happy, but he wasn’t the best candidate for me.
Spring is just around the corner, and, (so unfortunately) spring cleaning. Though, I think that’s just the way to prepare for summer, and the small time in this country that we, hopefully, have warm weather. Some people ask me if I want to go back to Kenya, and most of the time, I try hard not to look at them as if they’re stupid, because I really want to go back. I think in the terms of education, England is better, but when I comes to growing up like a real kid, I would have rather been in Kenya. It’s as if here, there is something all kids miss from their childhood, especially those who aren’t originally from here. The absence of many people of the same culture, traditions or religion around you all the time, has an effect on how you grow up. Even for me, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get that small piece of my childhood. It’s like a sort of innocence. Though, if I were to say truthfully, it is better to finish school here and go back home, than stay at home your whole life. But even though I am not at home, I still have a small piece of home with me everywhere I go, even if it is in my mind. A lot of people think that Kenya is a small, poor, needy, sad country, and, yes maybe it is, but I know that, we are one of fastest progressing country in Africa. Kenya is the country that will show the western world, and all those doubtful political leaders that we. Are better than they think. We can fix our problems with or without help. Our people stick together no matter what, and I believe that If all the Kenyan people, those living in Kenya, those who may. Not be from Kenya but live there and are loyal to this country. Even those Kenyans outside their country. They can still bring this country up on its feet, feed the poor, educate our children, about our history, about how strong this country can be. I believe that Kenya has a bright future ahead of them. I hope others believe in Kenya as much as I do.
Thanks everyone

A secret me

Hi guys!

I guess the people that have read most of my posts will be the people that know me quite a bit. I love the internet, because, seeing as I am a socially awkward person(meaning that i struggle to communicate with others in person) and when I do talk, it does not come out well, which is why I love the internet. I think that the people that read my posts, and link to me online will, over time, get to know me best. I think that if it wasn’t for things like YouTube, WordPress and Google+ I would be a seriously lonely person. I think this is kind of like a thank-you to the people that invented the internet, and all the social networking sites. IT helps me a lot, and I think this is also a thank you to the people that read my posts, it helps me a lot, so thank you.

Future Posts

Hey Everybody,

I have made a plan for my next few posts. I am going to do a ‘profile’ on different cities, each time I post them, there will be information on them, recent events, etc. I hope you enjoy the posts. Thanks guys

Rachel Corrie

Hi everyone, I wonder if any of you have heard of Rachel Corrie? She is one of my role models. I think if you want to find out more about her, I’d recommend that you look her up on google. I know that it isn’t the happiest of subjects, but in think this links back to the post I did about seeing things for what they really are. I know that she is not know by as many people as she should be know. I think that if we can all remember her for who she was, and what she did in her life time, we would be able to take inspiration from her and be able to do the right thing in our own lifetimes. In my eyes, Rachel Corrie goes up next to Martin Luther king, Mahatma Gandhi, and Rosa Parks. I am only asking this small favour of you, and I hope you reblog this and let people know what these people did, because these are the people we need to remember, we need to change the world, and make their dream of a better world come true. I hope you will take a small time to look at what Rachel Corrie did. Thank you

Another Notice!

Hi everyone!

As you probably know from my last post, I had mentioned that I would be writing a book. Well, I am in the process of writing it, and it has been enjoyable so far. At the moment I will  not be able to write as many posts, but I will try to post as much as I can. More updates and posts soon!!

And also, a shout out to all my followers, thank you all so much for supporting me.

Notices

Hey Guys, I’m sorry I haven’t posted anything fro a while, but I have had a serious case of writers block recently and I will try to post something asap to make up for that. I have a few notices for you though. Firstly, I won’t give you a specific day of the week that I’ll put up a post, because I don’t know when I will have time to. Secondly, I finally found a riding stables to volunteer at every Sunday, and I am finally back on a horse, happily. The last thing is, I’m in the process of writing a short book, and I’m doing the shortened version at the moment, so as soon as that is finished I will edit it, do the full version, and put both documents up here for you to read. Thats all for now, and I hope you haven’t minded the long wait for another post. Also, I think there are some people that mis-judged my age. I’m actually only a high school student, so that was just to tell you, in case you I say some childish things. Thanks Guys!
