Coming from an upbringing in Zambia, a lot of what I watched though were African shows and movies, don’t get it wrong, with cable and without my parents channel restrictions until 4:00PM.

Finally In Zambia

Finally had the opportunity to go back to Zambia! And boy it was meant to happen. With my problematic need to do things with a purpose (overachiever, yes I know), I wasn’t ready or capable of creating a purpose all on my own.

I am scared to leave the honeymoon stage, terrified, it gives me goosebumps thinking about how my lover will eventually stop looking at me longingly. Me stopping to have the urge to caress his hair. His addiction to shower me with kisses and need to sleep in his arms. My past relationships have ended before … Continue reading Honeymoon Stage

Love is hard to come by, at least for me. I am highly sensitive and naive of how manipulative it can be. In my on chaotic island of a mind, I believe there is a time in place for appreciation and be adored. A place where I can freely speak my truth to someone who … Continue reading Falling in Love

Contentment in Failure is the Absence of Bravery

October 25, 2018November 1, 20181 Comment

The younger version of myself would be disappointed in the person I have become. Back then I hungered to prove to the world, that I may not fit in as a refugee but my life was so eccentric, or so I said. I created journeys that were un-ordinary as the next one, to anyone who … Continue reading Contentment in Failure is the Absence of Bravery
