The delicate
things, the special people, the ones who are unaware of your affection, don’t
let them find out, tell them.
I know of a man,
Tom is his name whose heart is so fragile that upon the mention of good news he
loses breathe, and further mention of better news makes him collapse. No one
ever tells him sad or bad news upfront, we wouldn’t want his death on our
conscience now would we. So in most cases, the bad stuff was let to be passive
as he perceived it better when he found out on his own.
The point is
that we at times are like the friends of Tom. We live under the fear of saying
what we mean to those whom we care for. We prefer to let them find out the
affection that we have for them.
I will let you
in on a secret, “the mistakes committed by lovers are not punished by the
gods”, (An African saying). Would you rather be a person that pours
sanctimonious platitudes on noble souls already dead or one who takes each day
in awe appreciating the delicate things that our lives are blessed with?
I have counted
my blessings these recent days, and among them are Martin and Kevansweli. I am
grateful and to you my reader, you are the inspiration for REAL the time you
spend reading this is appreciated.
I know that
Mother in Law (A Kenyan TV sitcom) lead actress wanted to poison her neighbour’s
dogs for trespassing into her garden but may be like her, you ought to seal the
hole in the fence and keep out the bad elements.
Share some love
today, won’t you!
