My dad set aside 10,000.00 for Christmas clothes  until I turned 25, and still Mpesa&#8217;d  me lunch money during my attachments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When he passed away, I realized that despite his visible parental flaws, he had spoilt me enough to confuse  privilege and responsibility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My siblings equally enabled my privilege but allowing me to ride on their cocktails and imitating their auras enough to lose myself. Of course the privilege came with rules and a dependent relationship that the rising economy  conveniently severed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It took me a while to catch up and today I become a beautiful, single 33 year old advocate with a cultivating aura , to which this idea was birthed. I am learning what works for me, fashion, relationships and  hangouts while creating healthy boundaries for my mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I welcome you to this beautiful journey I call growth and welcome you to the memories I create as I learn me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy Birthday to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello diary.
