Sitting at the balcony staring at my two favourite instruments playing music in my head and with the amazing view of my beautiful Zimbabwe it feels like heaven.  Hearing this you might think that music has some type of witchcraft because how can you feel this way and still be normal... As a mbira player I got to appreciate people like Chiwoniso Maraire( may her soul rest in peace) especially the song " Rebel woman" . She has been a big inspiration to me. When I play the mbira I feel more grounded and as a Dreadlock person I'm guessing you can see that the African culture is deep rooted in me. It isolates you from societal norms that can crack your head over and over again and connects to your inner self.  Knee deep in jazz we talk about the Legendary Oliver Mtukudzi who played the guitar like it was the missing bone to make him complete.  Let's just have a moment of silence as we remember him as today marks one year without our legend... Neria, my favourite song  of ...

                                           "WAGWAAN" When I'm walking in the streets of Harare I hear people calling out and praising me because of my hairstyle.             "Rastaaa bho here!"             "Rastaaa wagwaan"             "Rasta ndimi mune yese"  Hearing this as dramatic as I am I start feeling myself and my step changes and I tell myself well this hairstyle gives me so much respect. But I realised that the reason why I got dreadlocks and what having dreadlocks means to people is totally different.  Let's break it down shall we.  Dreadlocks is a hairstyle worn by warriors in Kenya. In the early days of Rasta Fari, Rasta who wore their hair in dread form  where brutalized by the police for no reason. This pushed many Rastas into the Bush so that they could l...

"When I saw you, I fell in love and you smiled because you knew."  This is the love that our dear mothers and fathers know. The love that surpasses all hatred and jealousy. They wrote letters letters to each other...It was like a fairy tale we all wish for now. Just taking this moment to imagine the words in a letter...focusing on lips maybe: "Sometimes when you part your lips slightly it makes me stop speaking , waiting in anticipation to see your lips move..." Do you see what im talking about? It was a love like no other, a love with meaning and everlasting.  But looking at my generation it feels like a battlefield.   "You say you love rain but you open your umbrella  You say you love the sun but you find a shadow spot  You say you love the wind but you close the window  This is why I am afraid when you say you love me too                       -William Shakespeare The moment someone says "I love...

Happy new year to all the bloggers out there. So I thought I should start with a dramatic topic to light up the 2020 mood. I know that everyone is busy writing their new years resolutions and thinking about making it the best but lets just take the time to think about fornication...something you don't normally include on that new years resolution list. Okay fornication is defined as sexual intercourse between people who are not married to each other and going deeper into the society we hear people talking about kissing, touching and all of that because that person is not your husband or wife and what he/ she has is not yours(physical terms).  Looking at this definition it makes you think about the relationships you had...I mean we are talking about trillion kisses, the thrill that comes when somebody holds you. Its irresistible.  I have two factors that lead to fornication or that made us the millennial feel its normal to kiss somebody or touch somebody as a sign ...

Well someone asked me what’s the history behind you feeling like you have understood the word YOLO after all these years and shockingly I had a lot to say as if I wrote a book about before. Let’s get to it. Tracing back to the life I used to live I didn’t really allow myself to be liberal because a lot was happening around me and somehow I felt like being trapped is the best option. Let me just unpack this a little. People around made a lot of mistakes in their lives including getting pregnant because of one night stands, getting into numerous quarrels with their parents because they partied until morning or they got home drunk. Living in an environment like this I was like why do people risk it in the first place because it causes so much disunity and pain. Thinking about it I just felt like I needed to share my opinion about it. I made a vow to myself that I will never engage in activities that will cause me any pain and misunderstanding with people I live with but unfortunately t...

Okay I just wanted to share what I'm really proud of so  far in my life and I hope I will inspire you. Lets get to it Im currently in my attachment year and I would love to give a brief background on how i struggled to look for attachment. When I was looking for attachment I had applications that did not have any responses and I tried to be positive at first because I had the mindset that its not the end of the world. As time passed my confidence was low and it was hard  for me to stay positive because my friends were attached to different media organisations. I reached a point when I felt like journalism and media is not for me until a mentorship programme knocked on my door. I was selected together with other colleagues to be part of a mentorship programme that focused on equipping us with journalism skills. At first I felt swallowed because my colleagues were three steps ahead and in my own world I thought I was "the shit". Well with that in my mind I starte...

Millenials! Millennials are accused of being lazy, unfocused and entitled and in workplaces they always say they want to make an impact. Lets get to it We start with the roots of millennials that is parenting. Millennials are spoiled and given whatever they want by just uttering a word and they got maids that do their laundry  and cook for them and sweep the house. Usually these type of millennials(spoiled brats as they say) have parents that are out of the country. Moving on to millennials in the workplace. Everything is just amazing when you start working because when you enter the big door its lights camera action time. You feel like your first promotion has already knocked on your door twice.  With millennials its supposed to remain like that even though its not the place to get whatever you want. It is said that they want to make an "impact" or do something that has purpose but in the end it doesnt really turn out to be like that. Millennials and social media. Socia...
