My thoughts in writing.

It has been approximately 90days since I started working for Top Rose Hair and Beauty Salon . To be honest with you, wasn't really prepared for it, mentally. Initially I thought it would be a smooth ride, I was a little bit naive, mostly because I was just happy I got a job after a couple of months of tarmacking and the excitement sought of brought it in. Well, I didn't really start off on a high as I was late for my first managerial meeting, which was a bit embarrassing, I could have been early if only I remembered the right mats to get in. 5 minutes, that's how one decision got me late by. At the meeting was taken a back by the challenges that they face as managers of different branches. In my mind I was having all this "great" ideas that might counter all those challenges that they were going through, I really was eager to make an impact. I wanted to bring a change that will grow the business to new heights, having in mind that I had only been in one branch(wh

And it is for family that we live for. It is for family that we shall die for. That none may tear us apart. We have each other’s back. Family above all else. Nothing else above family. “Remember this words Luma. Keep them written in your heart. Let them guide you in this life. No one else will be there for you in this world apart from family ”.  Miha told young Luma as they sat by the fire. Miha was a young vibrant woman who was sold by her parents to a drunkard who mistreated her but she still hangs in there. Despite the backlash, the rumor-mongering from her peers and the elderly in her village, she still walked head held high, graceful, and without a care in the world, because she was brought up knowing that you guard and protect your family at all cost, and this man was her family. When she was heavy with child she convinced her husband that they should move a bit farther away from the rest of the village so that her child could not grow up feeling mistreated by
