Nestled in the heart of Tanzania, the Uluguru Mountains stand tall and proud, beckoning adventurers with their lush greenery, cascading waterfalls, and breathtaking panoramic views. As an avid nature enthusiast, I embarked on a hiking day at Uluguru Mountains, seeking solace from the bustling city life and an opportunity to reconnect with the pristine beauty of the natural world.    It was not a first time, and surely it will not be a last time. BUT, little did I know that this expedition would prove to be a transformative journey, both physically and spiritually.       The Ascent Begins With my backpack packed and a heart full of anticipation, I set foot on the trailhead around 10am. The air was crisp, and the sweet aroma of the surrounding vegetation infused my senses, drew my attention, that, it was time, time to get far and reconnect with the most beautiful and tiresome activity that am attracted to, accompanied by an experienced guide, not in such, but t...

We are living the life that we are not sure of what will happen in the next day, well, next second ahead. But HOPE, hope makes us plan and get excited of the future. We have already planned on what we need to do, who to meet, and what to eat at lunch. That's LIVING. We are not sure but we have to live and live again until the end of us. Who knows when? NONE. Challenges and success are part of this beautiful, NO, adventurously journey that we are on. We need success and we are fully or partially work on them to come on our way but we never want challenges to disturb us. No one want the bumpy ride.  Life messes us up every time it gets a chance to, through moments, situations, things and people, either we love or hate. The more messed up you are the more life takes you as a joke and so you'll get to be messed up around every now and then because of how "jokely" life is going to treat you. Enjoy the bumpy ride because there is no other way to dodge the life challenges b...

  It has been a long long time since publishing the last book review, David Joseph is here again, sharing with you his take away from this worthy reading book! AUTHOR: MARK MANSON CHAPTER ONE: THE UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH AND THE PARADOX OF PROGRESS We live in an interesting time in that, materially things are arguably better than have ever been before, yet we all seem to be losing our minds thinking the world is one giant toilet bowl about to be flushed. An irrational sense of hopelessness is spreading through the world despite all the advancements and improvements in human life. In fact, progress has continued uninterrupted, throughout modern history. We are more educated and literate than ever before. Violence has trended down for decades, possibly centuries. Racism, sexism, discrimination and violence against women are at their lowest points in recorded history. We have more rights than ever before, cured diseases than ever before and with more wealth than ever before, and s...
