Elimu- Educated
Friday, 28 February 2003
Dear Amare-Amuri,
Be educated by observing others
And speaking less
And studying other cultures
And how they behave
Or communicate
Or manage their finances
And how they conduct themselves
And how they conduct business
If you do that
And adapt to that
Then you will be ahead of the game
In life.
All my love,
Mama

Mambo- Things

Dear Amare-Amuri,
Some things are not worth fighting over
Hold your peace
Let God fight your battles
Do not lash out
Because then you will be
Giving the other person
Their power over you
Never let that happen
Ever.
All my love,
Mama

Haya- These
Friday, 28 February 2003
Dear Amare-Amuri,
Have some kindness when speaking. Speak softly. Not loudly.
Always walk at a measured pace with another person
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not promised to anyone
And the fact of life others around you live for those around them.
All my love,
Mama

Kuinuliwa- Exalted
Friday, 28 February 2003
Dear Amare-Amuri,
Know that God loves you so much as much as I do
Understsnd that patience counts for a lot and most don’t have it
Invest in your listening skills anywhere you go
Never assume anything
Under a smile is a heart worth understanding
Look deep inside the heart of someone through walking with them
Invest time in building a healthy relationship with yourself
When it comes to the end of your journey have no regrets at all
Always say please, thank you and it was my honor to serve you.
All my love,
Mama

Juu- Superior
Friday, 28 February 2003
Dear Amare-Amuri,
If someone tells you that they are superior than you
Do not say anything to them
Nothing at all.
There is simply no need
They are insecure and need to feel validated
And that is why they said that they are superior to you.
Do not react
Do not give a response
Just be still.
Those who know what they are about
Do not need to explain it to anyone
They just complete it
And move on
Do not waste your time with
People who tell you verbally
That they are superior to you
Ever.
All my love,
Mama

Mungu- God

Dear Amare-Amuri, `
Make the most out of your life.
Others won’t make anything out of their lives.
Oh they say they will
They promise they will
But their actions
And their habits
Tell an entirely different story
So do something great with your life
A one percent difference every day.
Understand that if God is for you
Than no man can be against you
No matter the opposition that is fighting aganist you
The Savior up Above is looking down upon you
And is protecting you with His Angels and His Shield
Never fear. Only trust God. With simple faith. It counts much.
Go in peace and spread love, joy, and happiness.
Do not go in haste and spread discord, hate, and worry
Like others may do around you
Be better than that
God put you on this Earth to love
Not to hate anyone
Hate is of the Devil
Love is of God
Get down on your knees and pray
If you feel hate or anger rising up within you
And do not speak if you feel anger or hate rising up within you
Because sometimes it is better that you remain silent
And pray to the God in heaven
To remove it from your heart
Tha to say something
That could cause havoc or upset
Choose your words with care
And with love and grace
Speak not to offend
But to support
Be kind
The world needs more kindness.
Understand that the world needs more kindness
The world needs more peace givers
Not more hateful people
Remember give love, give peace, give joy
Be kind, live good, die good.
All my love,
Mama
