I've been traveling a lot -- which has been awesome because I'm happy to see so many different places in Zimbabwe. There are still tons more on my list, but I guess they can wait. When I finally came back to Harare, I took some time to reflect and thank God for his journey mercies as I have been up and down Zim roads. Our roads are incredibly dangerous and bad. There is no guarantee that you will get where you going or return home. We encountered so many accidents on the roads, old car wreckages along the sides of the highway. It is quite sad, really. I hope road safety will be taken seriously, soon.

Dr. Maya Angelou

About two months ago, I had been thinking about Maya Angelou, I was reading some of her work and then wrote this post. You all know by now that this phenomenal woman passed away on May 28, 2014. More than anything, her passing her showed me just how much I DID NOT know about her life. I always thought she was fascinating but I was not even scratching the surface. I look forward to reading and learning more about her as the year goes on! 

"You are the sum total of everything you’ve ever seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot - it’s all there. Everything influences each of us, and because of that I try to make sure that my experiences are positive."

Postcard from Jozi

My favourite city in the world. Everytime I come here, it gets better and better. What most exciting to me is that there is still so much more of it for me to explore. I've had a lovely two weeks away from Zimbabwe. I feel like I have found myself again, as corny as that may sound. Ready to go back now.

Blossoming

My birthday always makes me think. This year, it made me think about where I was this time last year, how I felt and what I planned.

I'm closer to my dreams but they also feel further than ever before. I can see the progress and growth that has happened in the last year (and I am grateful for that) but things just seem to be getting harder, there are all these new challenges. 

Yesterday was the best birthday I've had in years. It reminded me of something: you cannot have it all. Be grateful for what you do have. Simple :)
