“Sometimes people mistake the way I talk for what I am thinking”.Idi Amin Dada.

I stumbled upon this quote on google and I find it hard to see it literally. So I would say what I think of the quote with respect to me.

I find it hard not to say what I feel about something or someone especially if I consider the person a friend. I know some people find it offensive. I kind of rant and rave about certain things but the funny thing is most times it doesn’t come out well. Why? Cos I would rather write than talk. Who can understand that part of me that prefers writing to talking. When every time I say something it may not come out right and I have to start apologising which most tomes puts me in deeper trouble. That’s how one sunny day; I was sitting jeje in the bus oh on my way home from someplace I choose not to mention. This man starts to discuss religion now. The way he sounded t just assume the man is a Christian now, then he goes who is God, how sure are we of him. In my mind I’m like who send me job now ehn this man should jut gerrup from my side before I blow. He then turns to me and asks me, as a shy girl that I am, I said he’s the omnipotent and omnipresent one, the one that created all of us and the earth. Mr Man took it p that scientists already established a fact and I should shut up my dirty black mouth. I took offence and told him he is black too so he should stop shouting in my ear. I stood up before I even finished d sentence. Thank God we got to my stop so I came down and went my way. I no know who give me balls that day oh but sha I didn’t get beaten by mr man that thinks he isn’t black.

I asked myself time and time again if what I said was right. Was I meant to make it personal like He’s my father that has seen me through and he never fails. I don’t know if I should feel guilty but I said to myself next time someone asks me that I would run my mouth ehn, the person would want to know my God. Let’s be proud to talk about him not because he needs it to survive but its an act of gratitude and praise for everything hes done. Just waking up each day is a blessing and sometimes we feel we cant go on but hes always there for us if we are ready to let go and let God.
