The ring conspiracy

By

When I went to bed last night I was all smiles glad to curl up and fall asleep after a long day. At some point in the night I tossed and turned so violently had you been watching you would be excused to think that an exorcism was taking place..morning came too soon it usually does when I have to wake up so early.I had a dream but I hardly recall my dreams all I could remember was rings makes faces at me. I was soon going to find out what the rings were taunting me about.
IMG-20140424-WA0009The horrid truth was that the rings had a conversation last night and they agreed to ridicule and torture me this morning. I had just  settled down in my seat on the bus to town when an Old lady starts to ask me something then suddenly looks down on her ring and adjusts it. I look and think 'nice ring' thing is she forgot she was addressing me after adjusting her ring. The bus stops at the next bus stop to pick a passenger,I peep to see a lady around the same age as me. She sits behind me soon she's struggling to shut the window. Then in annoyance taps the window and her ring makes a loud clutter sound. I had to look lest glass had broken and I would have ended up with a nasty cut given how recklessly the buses swerve.... There it was..... A nice shiny silver ring with a ruby 'bloody hell!!!' Was all My mind would shout! I relax and think that was it. Shortly after another lady younger than me or so she looked, boards the bus. Now she supports herself on my shoulder as she tries to settles into her seat...'BAM!!' Two beauties on her finger.... Masterpieces!!! Then soon as she is settled she pats my hand with her hand like making me feel the rings on purpose. 'Am sorry I lost balance' she had lost her balance for real. ' damn rings tripped her so they can flash in my face!!' My mind was now louder and angrier. The conductor asks me to pass change to the lady seated at the far end. Her face was down as she was busy on her phone... I reach out to her holding her change in my hand. She raises her face and and smiled at me before reaching out to get her change ' finally a ring-less lady just like me' 😁😱💂😡😤🙀🙀💥💥💥 my thoughts are interrupted by a hand wearing a magnificent ruby ring in white gold!!! reaching for her change The rings succeeded in their quest to torture me.... All I could think about for one hour sitting on my desk is how I pictured my ring and the day I will be getting it.... Sigh...

I have just stepped out of the office heading home I walk slowly appreciating my surroundings. A few meters from my office I see this tall lady smiling at me I smile back somewhat unsure of her reason for smiling at me then it she hugs me " empress!! sweet sweet empress!" at that moment I recognise her by her voice. It was an old school mate from back in high school. We stop and quickly try to catch up I am happy to see her after so many years and to see what she has become. Her name was Stella now Mrs. Adams. she is digging into her purse for a notebook to show me something when this small group stands beside us. "bona kuna rine kubwa ivo pare? "(why the long queue over there?) the only woman in the group asks pointing towards a Japanese restaurant a few meters away. " hii ni hoteri ya majapanesse na watu wainaipeda sana . kwanza wamama. "( that is a hotel belonging to Japanese which is loved by many) One of the gentlemen in the group responded. curiousl...

His friends are not your friends

Ladies we need to address this issue once and for all. Your man's friends are not your friends so stop wasting emotions and time on them . I have just about had it with the ladies who whine and cry about the betrayal from his friends....key word is "his " ....not your friends!  So suck it up and let it go. His friends hang out with you because your man brought you with him,they want access to your friends, they want you or they enjoy your company. Period! They are not hanging with you cos they genuinely want to build a friendship with you. Their loyalty lies with your man not with you. So they will  hang out with you on Friday and hang out with his side chic on Saturday and you'll only know it when you bust your man. They will not tell you  anything about it so stop expecting it and and stop investing your time and emotions in them.Be polite and and respectful to them as you would want your man to be with your friend and leave it at that.n His women friends are no...

"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you can help them become what they are capable of being.” —Goethe I can't seem to decide what colour to wear to this meeting. I am looking to start a business that requires some heavy investment. I was introduced to an investor a few weeks back and he called me last night to invite me to lunch today as we discuss this venture. I am anxious and I feel like my tummy is in knots. I settle for blue and head for the office. I am barely settled in when one of my colleagues walks into my office and starts to pace. He stops and looks at me then asks me"aje sasa? mtu ananifanyia ivo aje sasa? anajua mimi naeza mlipa mshahara na haitaniaffect? "(how now? how can someone do that to me? Does this person know I can pay their salary and still remain unaffected? ) I ask him to take a seat and explain what the problem is. He quickly sums up what the problem is by telling that a younger colleague had taken his slot tak...
