 Hello

Thank you for stopping by-I hope you will enjoy the short read.

It’s the first February blog post, 2016 is truly well under way, it got me thinking of what my dream is or I should say our dream as my 9 year old daughter, Lola is very much part of the creative process. She recently said to me, why don’t you write a book on what KIMI stands for? I thought that it was a genius idea because it has great potential to tell the KIMI story.

I thought the quote below fits my state of mind very well, it’s so inspiring & encouraging. The think big & dream big mentality is the current trend, if your dreams don’t scare you then they are not big enough- unknown. On that note it does, so much so it doesn’t seem real and very out of reach for someone like me. So I would more than welcome your thoughts on the concept for my book.

What’s different about this book?

I note that there are plenty of memoires & biography based books already talks about dysfunctional upbringings, childhood traumas, abusiveness & so on. I was keen not to rewrite more or less of the same so my concept are as follows:

Working Title: A relentless fight to break dysfunctional cycles & achieving eternal peace & joy shaping a destiny that is beyond recognition.

Sub-Title: A journey of healing, forgiveness, love & learning new ways of being tells the story of what can happen when you get radical. 

This quote became the heart beat of KIMI:  It's hard to bring up a child, but it's even harder to fix a broken child-unknown. 

Keola-means the life:

Brought up in drama, dysfunction, negativity & strife it became our norm. Emotional & psychological abuse was an almost daily occurrence, over a sustained period it become a way of life & slowly but surely the words spoken over us started to take effect. ‘Never amount to anything’. At one of my lowest ebb & a mother myself reading and writing became my solitude. It formed the foundation of my inspiration to makes sense of what seems to be a senseless childhood of endless pain.

Inspiration:

A trigger could send me into a tail spin. I also felt that therapy was part of my identity & during the course of 10 years it would merely touch the symptoms & not the actual cause. To be truly at peace seemed, a luxury out of my reach. In 2013, my professional circumstances was so dysfunctional it became unbearable. So much so, I was losing the fight for living & not just existence. Finding the Lord in 2014, has enabled me to realise that my mess can turn into my message & my pain can turn into my purpose. This information became the motivation to turn this into an Idea-an idea that can change the lives of many from dysfunctional, challenging & difficult circumstances.

Motivation:

The inspiration was feeding my motivation to make a difference & create change. Your past does not define you, through healing you can be redefined by it for the better. On a personal level I realised that if I don’t forgive the cause, my daughter will probably tell a not so dissimilar story in the not so distance future, after all nothing positive comes out of bitterness & resentment. My idea was taking shape & KIMI blog & bag was born.

Ideas:

The idea(s) was fuelling indefinitely -KIMI manifesto is to engage, encourage & elevate all to think & be beyond their circumstances, especially the youth.

I would welcome some comments or suggestions of you thoughts on the plot and a massive #thankyou for your support over 3,800 hits so far. 

With love and hugs
