I want to apologize to all the people I’ve lost connections with, to the friends I failed to send greetings on some occasions especially on their special days, to those who were once my human diaries that I no longer send updates, to my circles I rarely hang out with. Know that I never considered our friendships and bonds over. Neither did I think of burning our bridges. There might be just some spaces formed out of busy days and individual priorities. But you were never out of my prayers. I still long for your presence, but these days, I am already happy seeing each of you gradually reaching your dreams. I am cheering you from afar. I am proud of you, though I may not be vocal. I believe that deep and strong connections do not require constant catching up, because no distance and duration of silence can break a genuine bond.
What’s the saddest lyrics you’ve ever heard??
Any love I have given you is yours to keep. I will never ask for it back, never regret it, never treat it as wasted. Love was never a trade. It was a gift I offered because, in those moments, you mattered.
No Returns, No Refunds, No Exchange? The Consumer Protection Act Aggressively Disagrees.
We’ve all been there. You buy a new phone, charger, or iron in town. Two days later, it stops working. You take it back to the shop, but the shopkeeper points to a dusty sign on the wall: "CHECK GOODS BEFORE LEAVING. NO RETURNS. NO REFUNDS." 😤
You walk away frustrated and out of pocket. However, this is illegal in Zimbabwe according to Section 18 of the Act. If goods are defective, you have a right to return them within six months for a refund, replacement, or repair. Most businesses get away with this because consumers turn a blind eye; we often fail to call them out and simply move on.
Secondly, kutoisa tumaposter itwotwo twekuti no returns no refunds itori mhosva pamutemo. If a shop hangs a "No Returns / No Refunds" sign, they are committing an offense under Section 42 because that sign attempts to override the law. They cannot use fear tactics to evade liability for their products. If they sold you something that doesn't work, that sign means nothing.
If you have been treated unfairly by a supplier or service provider, follow these steps:
1. Be clear about what the problem is.
2. Contact the company/seller where you had the problem.
3. Ensure you have proper documentation (contracts, receipts, etc.) at hand.
4. Always stay calm but assertive, and keep records of all conversations.
5. 5.If you are not satisfied, escalate the issue by lodging a complaint with the CCZ - +263 71 400 0888. Contact any of their Provincial offices, or reach them through their website at https://t.co/w6FDgK8N9F or any of their social media platforms.

Of all the places to spray perfume, avoid your pulse points.
Especially your neck.
While it's believed to make your fragrance last longer, it can actually cause problems.
In a few years, you could be dealing with Poikiloderma of Civatte and there’s nothing that fully reverses it.
Your neck is extremely delicate, almost like the skin in your armpits or private areas. It’s thin, constantly moving and directly exposed to sun and friction.
Unlike your face, it has little protective oils, which makes it vulnerable to anything applied on it and once damage happens, it’s permanent.
Pulse points are areas where blood vessels run close to the surface... wrists, behind the ears and the neck.
They’re warmer than other areas, which supposedly makes perfume bloom and diffuse faster. That’s why generations of beauty advice have told us the neck is the perfect place to spray.
Which is so WRONG!
Perfume is made of alcohol, oils, and other chemical compounds that are far from gentle.
On the neck, these chemicals penetrate faster than almost anywhere else on your body.
Sun exposure also acts as an accomplice.
Some ingredients in perfumes, react with UV rays, creating tiny bursts of inflammation. These reactions happen every time you’re outdoors after spraying perfume
They slowly trigger pigment changes and weaken blood vessels. This is why even casual exposure, combined with perfume, can leave marks you won’t notice until years later.
Over time, the blotches darken and spread. Tiny broken blood vessels can appear, creating a fine network of red lines that give the skin a patchy, uneven look.
The tissue itself thins, which makes veins, pigmentation and even minor discoloration more noticeable. All of a sudden, your neck looks older than your face, and nothing you try seems to fix it.
The best method is spraying perfume lightly on your clothes.
Fabric absorbs fragrance, slows evaporation and shields delicate skin from direct chemical and sun exposure.
You get the perfume, your skin stays safe and years from now, your neck looks normal instead of blotchy.
DEAR PERFUME LOVER
Never rub your wrists together after spraying perfume.
Never borrow or share your roll-on or perfume oil.
Never spray perfume on dry skin. moisturize first.
Never store your perfume in direct sunlight.
Never keep perfumes in the bathroom (heat ruins them).
Never overspray thinking it will last longer.
Never mix too many strong scents at once.
Never judge a perfume with just one spray. let it dry down.
Never spray perfume on sweaty skin.
Never shake your perfume bottle aggressively.
Never spray perfume on clothes only. skin chemistry matters.
Never leave your perfume bottle open or uncapped.
Never apply perfume immediately after smôking.
Never assume expensive perfumes suit everyone.
Never apply perfume the same way for every occasion.
Never forget pulse points (wrist, neck, behind ears, inner elbows).
Never ignore expiry dates or scent changes.
Never store perfumes near heat sources.
Never blind-buy without testing if possible.
Never spray perfume directly on jewelry.

I'm looking for insults so intelligent you don't realise you've been roasted until 3 thoughts later
°Life can give you 5 kids and take them all again when you're just watching.
°Life can also give you one child and allow you to grow old as you watch him grow.
°The same life can give you a sweet marriage without children.
°It can also give you beautiful children without marriage.
°Or give you a beautiful marriage, lots of money and beautiful children that need medical attention consistently.
°The same life can give you very good academic papers without employment.
°It can as well choose not to allow you to have any papers but allow you to be successful in businesses.
Life is a mystery.
Man, I don't have much to say lately. It's a chaotic world. The poor marry, so do the rich. Some die, some are born. I ate meat, I ate veggies. I lost my job, but I got another. And I love it in nature, man. The ocean, the trees: they do something to me, man.
And when I am running, the wind feels like therapy in my face. I also concluded that I have no type, no mechanical standards with people: everybody is an experience. A book I unravel. There are times I wished the novel would go on forever, but I guess I am no life's author: I am only a reader. I can only exist in the moment. Not focus too much on the ending.
There are women I thought I would marry, man. And I loved holding their hands, kissing their foreheads. But I guess it was never meant to be. And it is sad, but it's life, man. That's the joy of it. To feel with abandon. Then heal just as resolutely.
I used to believe I was entirely good. But I got blocked for the first time this year, so I guess I can't be all that. When I tell my stories, I am an angel and rainbow, but I must have hurt people in my past, and I guess I am a little heartbroken by it. I wanted to be perfect. And I always meant well but intentions never count when we hurt people, do they?
And I want to live with the rules, man. But they are so exhausting. Do this, and do that and they still don't guarantee shit. Because after all of it, I am still going to die. You could do everything right, and still lose. And that's just how it is. That's just how it is.
So I guess my only rule is living for now. I will be more pessimistic when I give up. But I have hope still. I see myself with a nice house somewhere with a lot of trees, man. Someone I will wake up to and call "baby". I mean it's stupid when you think it up, but what's the alternative, man? Wake up to a fucking cactus in a pot in my 40s?! Call a cat "honey"?
And my friends look at me and say,"you are too white, brother". Too romantic for life. But I am not the one chasing emptiness with gin. Night after night with nothing to show for it, except bland tales about the pretty girl at the bar, and the big boys that spend cash like it's water. Knowing everything about everyone except ourselves. Chasing everything but us, man. Living vicariously through others, delegating our existence to another. Like a man who has love at home, but won't stop lamenting doomed love. Parroting hell for relevance until he becomes the statistic he spoke into life.
And why must it always be investment. Can't even spend my money in peace. Everybody is preaching and the gospel is all stacking it up. But I saw a local dude in some torn shorts, with his wife and kids in Lamu, laughing to their last teeth by the beach. I mean it's not much, and it could be better. But it's not nothing. Right? We are not going to be dollar millionaires, and I guess that's fine, man. We don't have to be to live life. Most of us won't. But we can still be loved. We can still eat and drink. And that's what they call living, man. So I don't want to talk about the latest cars and flashiest watches. I will settle for the occasional laughter God sends my way.
Until I have lost the light in me, then I will join you. But for now, I want to live. I want to wake up with some excitement. I want to exercise, man. I want to dream. I can't be mechanical about it. I am not a car. Just another dude, who a million years from now won't mean shit. But I've got to live. I've got to live.
For my final act of love,
I won’t reach out to you even on your birthday.
I won’t send a message, I won’t check if you’re okay, I won’t remind you that I still care.
I will let the day pass quietly, even if my heart remembers.
Instead of writing to you, I will write to myself.
Instead of asking if you are okay, I will ask myself the same.
Instead of reminding you that I care, I will remind myself that I deserve care too.
This is not because I stopped loving, but because I am finally learning to love myself enough to walk away.
So for my final act of love, I will let you go completely, because this is how I set myself free.
And maybe one day, when I look back, I will be happy.
Not because I wish things were different, but because I will know I was strong enough to let go.
I will know that my final act of love was not only for you. It was for me too..

"My name's Raymond. I'm 73. I work the parking lot at St. Joseph's Hospital. Minimum wage, orange vest, a whistle I barely use. Most people don't even look at me. I'm just the old man waving cars into spaces.
But I see everything.
Like the black sedan that circled the lot every morning at 6 a.m. for three weeks. Young man driving, grandmother in the passenger seat. Chemotherapy, I figured. He'd drop her at the entrance, then spend 20 minutes hunting for parking, missing her appointments.
One morning, I stopped him. "What time tomorrow?"
"6:15," he said, confused.
"Space A-7 will be empty. I'll save it."
He blinked. "You... you can do that?"
"I can now," I said.
Next morning, I stood in A-7, holding my ground as cars circled angrily. When his sedan pulled up, I moved. He rolled down his window, speechless. "Why?"
"Because she needs you in there with her," I said. "Not out here stressing."
He cried. Right there in the parking lot.
Word spread quietly. A father with a sick baby asked if I could help. A woman visiting her dying husband. I started arriving at 5 a.m., notebook in hand, tracking who needed what. Saved spots became sacred. People stopped honking. They waited. Because they knew someone else was fighting something bigger than traffic.
But here's what changed everything, A businessman in a Mercedes screamed at me one morning. "I'm not sick! I need that spot for a meeting!"
"Then walk," I said calmly. "That space is for someone whose hands are shaking too hard to grip a steering wheel."
He sped off, furious. But a woman behind him got out of her car and hugged me. "My son has leukemia," she sobbed. "Thank you for seeing us."
The hospital tried to stop me. "Liability issues," they said. But then families started writing letters. Dozens. "Raymond made the worst days bearable." "He gave us one less thing to break over."
Last month, they made it official. "Reserved Parking for Families in Crisis." Ten spots, marked with blue signs. And they asked me to manage it.
But the best part? A man I'd helped two years ago, his mother survived, came back. He's a carpenter. Built a small wooden box, mounted it by the reserved spaces. Inside? Prayer cards, tissues, breath mints, and a note,
"Take what you need. You're not alone. -Raymond & Friends"
People leave things now. Granola bars. Phone chargers. Yesterday, someone left a hand-knitted blanket.
I'm 73. I direct traffic in a hospital parking lot. But I've learned this: Healing doesn't just happen in operating rooms. Sometimes it starts in a parking space. When someone says, "I see your crisis. Let me carry this one small piece."
So pay attention. At the grocery checkout, the coffee line, wherever you are. Someone's drowning in the little things while fighting the big ones.
Hold a door. Save a spot. Carry the weight no one else sees.
It's not glamorous. But it's everything."
Let this story reach more hearts....

I noticed my man’s babymama had been losing a lot of weight lately. She looked tired, drained, and she’s such a beautiful woman that seeing her like that worried me. So I reached out, just to ask if she was okay. The moment I asked, she broke down crying. She said nobody ever checks on her… nobody ever asks if she’s okay. As she vented, she told me she was struggling physically and mentally, trying to hold everything together as a single mom. Her youngest, who’s 10 and not my man’s child, had been having behavioral issues in school. I asked her if she’d be comfortable with him staying with us for a month so he could be around a positive male figure. She hesitated… then said yes. After that, I asked her to meet me somewhere. When she arrived, she looked confused, but I took her hand and told her to trust me. We sat down in my church, and I told her to close her eyes, breathe, let everything go, and talk to God. Fast forward 6 months later—her whole life has flourished. After that month with us, her son went back home and he’s doing amazing. She’s doing amazing. Everybody is in a better place. Sometimes God just needs us to show up for people He put in our path, even when it’s not expected. ❤️
