100. Last hungout with: A bunch of friends on saturday

yesterday i realized more than ever how badly i want to be a dad.

i was asleep when at 4 am there was a knock on my apartment door and one my neighbors,
a single mother,
asked me if i could look after her 2 young kids,
3 and 5 years old (girl and boy respectively),
since she had to rush to the hospital to a friend.

i said of course and got their things and brought them inside.
they lay down and fell asleep almost immediately.
i didn’t even have to do anything really.

but after a while,
the little one woke up.
she was cranky and kept wanting to play.

she was lying on my tummy horizontally playing and after a while,
slept on my tummy like that.
i tried to put her on the mattress but she held on to my shirt so tight i let her be,
and so she slept on me for about 5 hours.

when her mum came and saw all 3 of us sleeping,
especially her daughter on top of me,
she started crying and told me that her kids hadn’t slept this peacefully in 7 months,
ever since their dad left.
when the mum tried to pick up her daughter,
she would start crying and didn’t want to moved.
i sent the mum to her apartment and told her I’ll drop the kids when they wake up.

when we woke up,
the daughter still refused to let go of me,
and kept hugging me so tight.

i told the mum i will take her with me,
it’s not a bother at all,
i have to run a few errands and i will bring her back in a while.

so i spent my entire day with a 3 year old,
and it was undoubtedly one of the best days of my life.

i love kids.
i’m good with them and we get along well.

i cannot wait to have my own little me and mrs.me running around the house.
i want to have hundreds of them,
but i think it might get a little too much for my wife so plan B is to adopt the rest.

i am the only child.
i missed out on everything that brothers and sisters do.
maybe that’s the reason i want to have a houseful of kids.
i don’t know.
i don’t care.

i cannot wait to be a dad.

i have felt and been through many emotions in my life.

i was more sensitive towards my surroundings,
and i always paid close attention to detail.
i had the ability to look beyond what is being said,
and being presented.
i felt more than i ever saw.

i was never really a believer.
but i was never really a disbeliever either.
i didn’t believe in my own capabilities.
i didn’t believe in myself.
i still don’t truly.

there comes a point in everyones life where they meet someone,
and that someone changes your life forever.
and they show you things that either you had never seen before,
or you saw them but didn’t notice them.

and then along came this person who was so confident,
a complete believer,
used words like faith and hope and belief.

for me,
this person opened up the world of God.

it didn’t happen at once.
it was a slow process,
took many years.
i’m still going through the process.

God is a process.

it’s an on going process.

during the process,
you fall.
you stumble.
you lose faith.
you hate.
you love.
you get angry.

it’s a painful,
on-going process.
believing is not an easy thing to do.

but what it does for you at times is,
it gives you a sense of peace.

The thing with God,
that I have learnt is that you have to ask Him.
He wants us to ask Him for what we want.
He likes it when we go to Him again and again.
He wants is to go to Him,
talk to Him.

He wants us to to do dua (prayer).
And I have seen with my own dua,
not a single dua ever goes to waste.

I am going to share a little secret of dua with everyone today.
You have to try it and tell me how it worked.

If someone you know,
or even yourself is having a headache,
all you have to do is close your eyes,
concentrate and say to God please make this pain go away,
within a few minutes,
it will become better.

it’s nothing else but a little faith that you put in Him that I am asking you for your help,
and He will help you.

every single day,
i do dua for so many people.
sometimes people request me to do their dua on the spot,
and they know how quickly it works.
i encourage everyone to do it themselves.

it’s a very small step towards the belief in God.
baby step.
but once you will see it work,
you will start believing.
because us humans,
we need to see something before believing in it completely.

do it and see for yourself.
but when you do it,
you have to do it with the faith that this will help.
it’s exactly the same theory as taking medicine.
when one takes a pain killer,
we believe that it will work.
it’s the trust.

try it.
don’t be afraid.

this post is the beginning of a series of posts that I will write,
in which I will share my experiences of God with you.

Until next time,
God Bless.

i had the priviledge of attending Michael Jacksons memorial.
i am one of the few lucky ones who were inside the Staples Centre.
i was part of that group of people who were gathered there and we,
along with billions of people across the globe,
celebrated the life and music of the king.

what a great event.

the greatest memory of the memorial,
for me,
will forever remain when everyone stood up and sang we are the world and heal the world.
i promise you,
there was not a soul in that centre who didn’t have tears in their eyes.

what an extraordinary moment.

what a loss.

i had already bought tickets for his London concert.
the series of concerts were to start in 2 days from today.
i have the greatest of memories with MJ’s music.
i grew up listening to his album “off the wall” because dad had the album and he would play it all the time.

my dad attended one of his concert with his friends.
i remember he would say to me “if there is one artist you should see perform live, that’s Michael Jackson.”

and that is the reason i bought his concert ticket but it wasn’t meant to be i guess.
i will not be getting a refund on the ticket.
i have framed it and it’s on my wall.

sitting at the memorial,

listening to all the memories being shared of him by his friends and family,
i thought what a pity it is that we are paying tribute to this man after treating him like shit in his life.
it is sad that we realize the worth of someone the moment they leave us.

why can’t we honor,
respect,
pay tributes in their life time?

“He thrived with passion and compassion, humor and style. We had him whether we know who he was or did not know, he was ours and we were his.

We had him, beautiful, delighting our eyes.
His hat, aslant over his brow, and took a pose on his toes for all of us.
And we laughed and stomped our feet for him.
We were enchanted with his passion because he held nothing. He gave us all he had been given.
Today in Tokyo, beneath the Eiffel Tower, in Ghana’s Black Star Square.
In Johannesburg and Pittsburgh, in Birmingham, Alabama, and Birmingham, England
We are missing Michael.
But we do know we had him, and we are the world.”
