Having said that this is my take:-
It is apparent that there is conflict between your environment and your inner core beliefs. Nonetheless, man cannot live in isolation.

Way forward:-
1. Explore (within your circle of influence) contacts with people or areas that you belief will share your aspirations.
2. Maintain "essential" (bro and relas are permanent) contact with this group, who knows you may be the "angel Gabriel" they are waiting for albeit unknowingly.
3. I agree kuishi kwingi ni kuona mengi but the fallacy is many see the mingi and are rarely effected positively by them, u can get an irresponsible white-haired human being. Be the wise man i think you are.

Shamelessly Soldier on as a purposeful "Marker"-making good marks along this "short" journey 70 -80 or so years hehehe.

so long

wise words indeed...Asante

God must be talking to you... Best listen.

I'm curious, there are days when you are all excited talking matters aviation and then there are those days you are all sombre.. like now. What changes?

Just thinking is it worth it to have such friends in your life...
I have a common set of friends with my big bro whose 8 years older than me (dont know if its correct english)...they were his palz during their campus years and some have inter married within the group thus becoming relaz in the process...my biggest issue is that these guys arent progressive,we have this group text thingy and 90% of the time its about women and alcohol and football when its on season bring anything up about investment and you will be shut down as quickly as you raised it...not with standing the fact that they are married and one even has a kid whose cleared undergrad...am really thinking this isnt the best group to relate with especially since am not married and they are painting marriage as an institution where cheating is allowed and is the norm...
Is it time for me to pace...relate with individuals who will bring the positive side of life...your thoughts?


when it comes to investment I treat them like a wife. I go it ALONE

I feel you. Talking about the same dumb things, it gets old after a while.
I personally cant stand certain type of men e.g the type that spend the entire weekend drinking, then spend the rest of the week talking about how much they drank over said weekend, and the cycle goes on... So annoying!
Move on to more like minded friends, get out of that barrel.

The company you keep defines you. Choose your friends wisely

It's clear that you know what you have to do. Be very careful with friends, most of them are there to keep you from going where you're going.

I did an evaluation of one of my very closest and I had to really downgrade our relationship and over time it's now like dead. All we ever did together was drink and talk big about nothing. We were both passionately taking each other nowhere.

We were on the same level, I got married and moved on despite his wise counsel that a family will just drain my life and savings etc. The opposite happened, I'm now many levels above him, he has no wife or kids and the only calls I get from him are for begging for 'a small loan' which is never repaid.

BBI will solve it :)

Try to do an annual/quarterly clean up of the phone book by classifying the names. What I found out was that the numbers kept dwindling in the phone book and piling in the physical address book where I classify friends in three categories.

I've learnt that it can be very lonely esp where you keep the productive people as they are also very busy to socialise and eventually found that my family is the best company I can keep. Friends can be dispensed with.
