 HEKIMA ZA MAISHA: KUPENDA, HESHIMA NA NGUVU YA UKIMYA Dunia imejaa watu wanaotamani kupendwa, lakini wachache sana wanaojifunza kupenda kwa dhati. Kupenda si maneno matamu tu — ni vitendo, uvumilivu, na moyo wa kuelewa wengine. Hauwezi kumfurahisha mtu ambaye moyo wake umejaa wivu na chuki, kwa sababu furaha ya kweli huanza ndani ya mtu mwenyewe. Kama unalazimika kupiga magoti ili ukae kwenye meza fulani, tambua kuwa meza hiyo haikufai. Heshima ya mtu haipaswi kununuliwa kwa kujishusha. Vivyo hivyo, kama unatafuta mtu mkamilifu, anza kwanza kujikamilisha wewe mwenyewe. Ukamilifu si kutokosea, bali ni kujitahidi kuwa bora kila siku. Maisha yana tabia ya kubadilika haraka. Yule aliyekunyooshea mkono leo kukusaidia anaweza kuwa wa kwanza kukunyooshea kidole kesho kukusema. Ndiyo maana ni muhimu kujifunza kusimama kwa miguu yako mwenyewe. Moyo wa binadamu hauna kituo cha kudumu; usijione umefika kwa sababu tu umekaribishwa vizuri leo. Safari ya maisha si mashindano ya kasi. Tunaweza k...
