The Will To Change
After yet another weekend drowning in the depths of negative thoughts and unhealthy coping habits, I had this strong sense that it was time to change. The will to change was as strong as ever but slowly doubt and fear began to creep in. At the back of my head was the constant reminder that Iād been down this road before. In the words of Chingy, every time I try to leave something keeps pullingā¦

#DearAbi My Kind of Love
Dear Abi, As fate would have it, I am back to writing a letter almost 5 years from the day I last drafted one around this time of the year. 2018 seems light years away especially considering the pandemic that hit us in 2020 which seemed to have distorted our sense of time ā story for another day. Last time out, I was here ranting about not wanting to be a nice guy. The thoughts of a 28-year-oldā¦

Love & Light
With everything going on in the world right now, it has been tough on the mental health of most of us ā myself included. I hadnāt given it much thought until this week.
To be honest, I really thought I was coping. COVID is one thing but when you add to that the uncertainty and cases of police brutality. There is so much to make one just sit and wonder WTF.

Let Go and Thrive
Let Go andĀ Thrive
When I got hospitalized after a failed suicide attempt, my mother asked me why Iām never happy. Four years later I am still trying to find an honest answer to that question. It takes an effort for me to reminisce on happy moments but the painful ones donāt even give an advance warning.
Every time I think about my father it is only grief that overcomes my body. I struggle to remember theā¦

Breaking The Cycle
I am the vessel of my fatherās legacy the apple falling from the tree My name bears with it the history of my ancestors.
My body carries the pain of generational trauma my bones dancing to songs long forgotten my spirit weighed down by battles from a war, I wanted no part in.
I inherited my motherās anxieties but very little of her faith or support system.
Like Atlas my world settles heavily on myā¦

All About Love
Humans have spent centuries thinking and writing about love. We have made movies about love, written songs, and poems. We yearn to be loved and live to build up those we love.
Everybody has something to say about love and we all believe we know what love is, if not from our experiences in life then through literature and media. I also thought I knew a lot about love until I read Bell Hooksāā¦

Lost but not yet found
Every once in a while I come onto this blog to read poems, short stories, and articles that I wrote in the past. I reminisce on how easy it was to put down in words what I was going through or things I had experienced.
It is hard to say when I lost my mojobut with it gone I also lost the little confidence I had in myself as a writer ā and creative. Majority of my attempts at writing end withā¦

Mindfulness
Being present isnāt something you do. If it were a doingĀ then it would be much easier to get the hang of. Being present means not wandering off elsewhere mentally. Itās allowing yourself to be where you already are. Staying.
Although you may begin the access the present moment by paying attention to things that exist in the present, such as your breath, the feeling of your body, or the sensory input from your surroundings, ultimately the present is all that exists. Being present is an effortless reality.Ā
Before it can be effortless, it may require effort for you to overcome the mindās restless habits. It can take energy to break your cyclic patterns and fixations.Ā
The present is the only place in which all of āyouā exists. It is where your wholeness resides. The past is made of fragments of reconstructed memories. The future is limited imaginations. Preoccupation with either past or future leaves you powerless because it is only from the present moment that you can act.Ā
If burdens from the past are troubling you and occupying your mind and heart, then you must come back to yourself here and now. You cannot deal with the past on the level of the past. You can only deal with the past in whatever ways it appears in the present. If concerns about the future plague you, it will manifest as a lingering anxiety and again it will be something you canāt do anything about. Deal with the future from the present moment and let the rest go.Ā
In other words, the present moment gives you home-field advantage over time itself.Ā

Breaking Stereotypes: Men and Emotions
Breaking Stereotypes: Men andĀ Emotions
āI disappear when I donāt feel like I am myself. I go to a place to fix things so I can remind myself that I am in control. That, I am awake.ā He said.
Fresh off the bat, we can agree that most of us wouldnāt know how to deal with such a statement if it was presented to us on a platter, let alone how to decipher it. Itās confusing. Itās heavy. Itās raw. We tend to shy away from raw emotions.ā¦

How Our Childhood Experiences Affect Adult Behavior
How Our Childhood Experiences Affect AdultĀ Behavior
At the start of the year, there was an interesting discourse on Twitter about the experiences of those who went through Kenyan boarding schools. Despite some arguments to the contrary, there is a consensus that the system has left the majority of us with some kind of trauma.
