HAPPY NEW YEAR

I know its well in to the New Year but hey they say it is never too late. Happy New Year to you too. As the year began I promised myself albeit silently that I will pen something here every month even just once. Lets just say January is gone and I have not put even a single word down. To say am embarrassed is an understatement. But then again I did not write down the resolve so I can get away with it.

I like to write things down especially something I promise to do or to achieve that way I easily keep myself accountable. If you want to know procrastination come and have a look at my wardrobe *hangs head in shame. I have pushed organizing it to tomorrow let’s just say tomorrow has become a phrase like the one commonly used by Kenyan politicians to claim that the leaders of tomorrow are the youth.

My wardrobe however always serves as a lesson to me a constant reminder of how things can turn out to be if you keep postponing what is to be done now. First you can’t keep track of things secondly you become comfortable with the status quo. The abnormal becomes normal.

I like to believe a New Year, a new month or a new day is a chance to begin all over again. A chance to make amends, a chance to start a fresh on a clean slate. A chance to rewrite your story, to set new goals, and to rethink your ambitions. So here is to a chance to look at that list of goals and plans and rewrite them not because you can’t but because you can do better.

So here is a chance for me to go and organize that wardrobe.

HAPPY NEW YEAR folks, scratch that happy new month and oh happy new day.
