Ahaaa!! Moment in Marriage

Image
I had a very interesting chat with my wife this morning while driving her to work . Looking back on it, I just realized how honest we have been about our journey so far in marriage. In a few days, we will be making two years but it's so good to both honestly share what we have learned from the marriage, as individuals,as a husband, as her wife, father, and mother to our now 1-year-old awesome daughter. It has really brought out such a deeper joy in me at the same time an inner peace I can not explain but I think it from knowing that…. wow!!!... despite our different backgrounds growing up and the challenges we have faced bonding as a family, we are truly together as we grow in this marriage. I can now confidently say we have started to figure it out and authenticate our own story. Love you always Honey!!! Thank you for giving me the gift of being your husband and a father. May God bless you always and answer all your silent prayers at heart. Blesse...

Life Lessons From a Memorial Service.

Image
Yesterday 30th November 2017 I happened to attend a memorial service for a close friend’s uncle that passed away because of a long illness, to be precise cancer. As usual the mood is always sad for everyone and very few people if any are really present in that moment like I decided to be. We had 5 speeches and then the reverend preaching. I would like to chat about the speeches that stood out for me. The son’s Speech He said and I quote,” Mum thank you for looking after Dad, all of you seating hear know that dad was a very principled man and liked all his things in a certain way” but mum has been very patient with him and did exactly that. He is a singer so concluded by singing the Amazing grace hymn for his father  as he fought so had to hold back his tears. Then the  Fathers Union  speech    I don’t recall much but after their speech they covered the coffin with a cloth to  symbolise  that he was a member of the father’s union an...

Bathroom Thoughts 30/08/2017

Many have spoken about it but until you personally experience it then you can not actually comment on it. But I can personally now very much relate to how great business and life developmental thoughts and ideas come flooding in your mind once you hit the bathroom especially for a shower.   Many of my brave and fearless ideas have been developed in that place, which takes me to think and appreciate my“Me Time or Time with God I call it” more and also respect my time I spend in that place.   Never under estimate the power of just working in to the bathroom. Always remember that the way you walk in is not the way you will work out so stay present in there.   👨‍🏫 # Thoughtsfromthesoul   # TFTS 🙇‍♂️

Inner Circle

Image
How is your strategy for the new week asked my friend yesterday? ……… hmm for a moment I stopped to think about it and asked myself whether I should be honest with this friend and how he even knew to ask this question as he usually never asked. Oh well, I proceeded to be honest and I quote…..’This week I am blocking and deleting all my friends that are not playing as building blocks in my life, especially in the direction I want to be Then he laughed and proceeded to say Nice!!! Which I interpreted as it was a good idea. I further informed him…….that I needed to review my inner circle…… those 5 people closest to me and how their lives looked at the moment . Are they where  I am or want to be? Are they more about feeding on me than I am feeding on them? As Bishop T.D.Jakes once said …. That if you’re the brightest in your inner circle or if your friends feed/benefit from you more always than you benefit from them….. then you need to change your circle immediately. You should...

True Legacy

From Life’s first cry to the final breath Jesus commands my Destiny’ Attending yesterday a memorial service for this close relative[Ms. Elizabeth Nakigudde Kiggundu], a wonderful woman from the inside out, and seeing how many people were around from all age groups to government officials and the Queen of Buganda, made me revisit the word ‘LEGACY’ and what it truly and really meant for this beautiful lady as well. I can only summarize it in the words of Maya Angelo once t old Oprah…’ that your legacy is every person you touched watching your show’ (Oprah Winfrey show). What are you doing every day that contributes to building your True Legacy by just being you and doing what you do best every single day for another human being???!!!???!!!. When anyone meets you or spends time with you, they should always have a ‘takeaway’ from that encounter ……i.e. a life lesson, a word of encouragement, or something to inspire them to be a better human being. May Her Soul Rest In Peace! 17 ...
