Embrace Courage

In the land where dreams take flight

Where darkness battles with the light

There lies a black child strong and pure

A force that helps her endure

Embrace courage and let it be your guide

Through stormy seas and mountains wide

For it is the fire that fuels the soul

Lighting dreams and making you whole

In times of doubt and deep despair

When life’s burdens seem too much to bear

Courage whispers, “You are strong and

You have the power to right the wrong.”

It takes courage to face the unknown

To step outside the comfort zone

To chase a dream and to take a chance

To let go of fear and join life’s dance

Embrace courage, let it be your shield

In every battle on every field

For it is the armor that protects

The light that shines and never rejects

With courage, you can overcome

The obstacles that make you numb

You will RISE and you will REACH

With every step you WILL

So embrace courage hand in hand

Together you will conquer united you will stand with your dreams

For in the embrace of courage you find

The strength to face life heart and mind

Embrace Courage✨

Worry

Trembling hands and racing heart
Thoughts that tear your mind apart
Anxiety is a cruel game
Making you feel so much shame

Every breath feels like a fight
As you struggle with all your might
To keep the panic at bay
And make it through another day

But the fear won’t let you be
It grips you tight, won’t set you free
And you wonder if it’s all in your head
Or if you’re really better off heard

But know that you’re not alone
And there are ways to make it home
To a place where peace can be found
And your mind can finally be unbound

So take a deep breath, let it out slow
And remember that you’re stronger than you know
With time and patience, you can heal
And find a way to love and feel

A snippet🙈

‘…of John who was fortunate enough to have a grandfather who understands the importance of education, even though he never went to school.’

He could feel his bare feet hurt as they walked the dry plains of the land soiled with dead bodied, there were showers of blood everywhere and it seemed almost unbelievable. Everything seemed fade until the hunting sounds strated to become audible, go down! Go down Erassy …and then it all went blank.

This particular morning, all seemed skew, the skies were sulking, they had dark patterns of colors that made it seem like it had been raining for days, it appeared as though a rainbow of colors that underwent modification took over the skies, and when it all blended together, it was like scene extracted from the climax of a horror movie. John heard disturbing sounds from across the curtain which was the only solid thing that set boundaries between the part of the shack where he slept with his mother and opposite side where his grandfather slept on a raggy mattress.
John woke up to the sounds that kept on getting louder to see his grandfather and he noticed that he was having another one of his episodes where he would have awful nightmares of when he was at war. Grandfather Erassy would always narrate his time as a young missionary, from his charming looks as he described it back in the day to how he was always brave that he never wearvered to the commands of the colonizers, it was always inviting for John and his childhood friends to listen to these tails however they knew that there was an ugly side of the story he would never tell, unfortunately he had to relive that side almost everyday through his nightmares.

“Grandfather, grandfather wake up , are you okay”? John asked in a hush but very concerned tone.
” “ha ha , I remember Peter and I would always wake up to that song, it would always give us strength and courage to face the terrors of the day that lay ahead of us, and he gave a lazy attempt to a laugh that sounded more like a like a deep sigh of despair.
“Are you already back from school my child”?
John smiled from the far end of his mouth because his grandfather was coming back to reality “no grandfather it’s still very early in the morning ” and he helped him sit up.
Some days were worse than others, in some her would drift away foe many hours and he would often only come back to reality if he saw me or if someone sang our favorite Ndilimani song. Sometimes I wondered if he had a medical condition apart from his high blood pressure that was hiding from me but I never really gave itch thought, I always thought he was too strong, or was he ?

A Night

Where hugs and palm tickles kick off

Where a massage calms the mind which rewards the whole night

Where company is given in the shower

Where hugs from behind feel the chest

Where two bodies and two minds meld

Where thirst increases as the eyes meet before the lips

Where little back rubs and scratches carry the night

Where a touch traces all the skin

Where the hands taste and the tongue touches

Where embracing goes until the morning hours that melting happens again

A Silent voice

A form richer and fundamental than words

A taste so divine that it yearns 2 tongues

A voice so silent yet so loud

A voice so pure and intense

A play and drive with legs

A mouth that melts down there

A finger so soft when it scratches

A bite so seductive that I shiver

A profound sense worth all day

A reassurance safe worth all minutes

A feel so tender worth all seconds

A fondness so kind worth extra effort

Starts with a single glance✨

All reflects in the inner eye

Never to dodge the idea of tenderness

A feel so pure and eternal

Unbreakable equal grounds

A few humans don’t, but hearts do

A curve that will grow wider and flow incessantly

A flow that whispers all midnights and mornings

A yearn to know every inch

A year for a place under your skin

A peek through your eyes

As good as gentle and fulfilling

So subtle that it becomes more real

Freezing a moment that lasts

Let it flow😅

Why I always wanted to fly.
Thinking how amazing it will just hover up in the sky
A sense of curiosity yet a simple desire…
My weak point is that I can’t control my thoughts and my imagination…
I anyways feel like my wings exist and I need to let go of what weighs me…
Maybe I need to face it all, the fear in limiting me…
Maybe I need to let go of what weighs me down…

Live with memories.😌🥰

A walk in nature walks the soul back home and having to explore the beautiful corners of Namibia with Mariba Travels is an even closer step to the comfort of home. Before venturing with Mariba Travels, I heard a great deal about their services and budget friendly expenses and having lived the dream myself, I would rate it all a whooping 10+ . I voyaged with Mariba Travels to Etosha(Mokuti) , went for game drive, visited the reptile park and had some buffet lunch. We visited Hardap resort some time earlier this year(passed by River chalets in Mariental to feel animals) and then visited Lake Oanob resort for water activities too.
There are simply no words to explain the Road trip. We ventured on through the skeleton coast, Cape Cross, Soutgat Dead Sea, Spitzkoppe, Fish River Canyon, Sesriem Canyon as well as the Ghost Town. All this was a Ballon pop of excitement, beauty and immense enjoyment provided the great company I had. Needless to say, their travel packages escort transport and accommodation and advises clients regarding destinations, cultures, customs, weather, and activities. Together with Mariba Travels , fill your soul with adventure that will remain vivid in your mind for nature is an endless combination and repetition of a very few laws.

SUBMIT ALL TO GOD


It’s six o’clock in the morning
Thinking out loud in her lonely quiet room
What must she do do for the day?

All the negative thoughts just kicked in
Like some birds migrating to warm places
Everything seems impossible and complicated
All her failures, all the down falls

She is too focused on the outside and its outsiders
Forgetting the monster that is eating her inside
The venomous snake called self-pity


Pitying herself being neglected, rejected, betrayed, and lied to
Feeling sorry for herself again and again
The question is; should she be worried?
Is there something she can do?

Her inner self said: SUBMIT ALL TO GOD!!
