I was drowning. I was in a land of no return. My mental issues resulted to physical problems. I could barely hold a conversation without getting into a fight. I was in isolation and denial. Worst of all I felt like a looser and life had lost it’s meaning.
It reached a certain point that I barely ate. There was no need to waste food on a body that would still die, that’s what I thought. I was like a walking scarecrow. Have you ever lost your self confidence? All you think of is disappearing.
That was me a few months ago. God doesn’t have to come down and change your life personally, at times he uses people, could be a stranger. Yes, someone you have never met before could change your life forever.
That stranger in my case is Ruthy. As fate had it, we got to know each other in a group, she introduced to us mind techniques and took us through mental health lessons for several weeks. Everytime I practice the day and the night time mind routine something in me changes positively.
I no longer wake up tired from a night full of restlessness. During the day I’m focused and achieve anything I set a target on. As long as it’s in your mind to win that’s all it takes. And that’s what I believe the Harambee Stars are using. Who could even imagine that I could go out again and socialize with others? Not even my close persons.
There’s no coincidence in life, it’s always God sent. And that’s how my life changed for the better through the mind techniques.Future is bright and finally I can see something to smile about.I can go on and write a whole book about it but let me pause from here.
