KAREN MAOKOMATANDA!!!.
A sister I never had. I am the only girl in my family and
I’m surrounded by boys in my family. The only person I had closer to a sister
was and is my mum. But when I met Karen she is that other sister I never got to
have.
We share the same character. We both hard headed. But I
must say she takes the winning trophy of being a hard head. She is stubborn,
when you try to advise her it’s as though it’s coming in one ear and going out
the other ear. She will give you grief of simply telling her something she
knows it’s true and is a strong fact.
She is understanding and is a rare breed. Karen brings the
light in my darkest hours. She broke my heart when she asked if I could be her
maid of honor on her wedding day. Not even my cousins have asked me to pose as
such on their big days. But there is someone I met this year but we just
automatically clicked.
So many of our mutual friends have always questioned how we
got along so well and too soon. I don’t quite have an answer for them, but I can
say she’s a person that understood who Yvonne is and what Yvonne is about.
Something that is not quite simple but she took the time to learn who I am.

ReplyDeleteI actually am shocked to be here reading this but yo had told me about it but me being the thick head i did want to come back to you and say Vonnie whats that blog you said you wrote something about me but i found it all the same.
the whole 23 years i have been on earth i have not found someone who stays for all the crap i give but you have. You take time to listen, we bicker, we argue and you tell me your mind but instead of that breaking us it has only made us stronger.i am not afraid to be myself when am around you in the fear that you will judge me but i have shown you exactly who i am, what i have been through the scars iv had to cover up for years but you understand and never have you used that to hurt me in a silly argument.
I am honored to met you this year and when i sit down to reflect on how great the year has been you will definitely be featuring on the greatest highlights of my year.
We got along so fast and when i look at you i feel like am looking at a mini me which i don't like because you can practically predict my every move.....its a bonus sometimes as i get to be predictable and vulnerable.
The lessons you have taught me though...
1. Patience- always try to see where the other person is coming from before i make judgement.
2. treat other people the same way you would want to be treated as good karma always attracts favor
3. to listen to understand and not to reply...i was terrible at this but am better now
4. To always stay true to who you are, after all an original copy is better than a photocopy
5. To just care for other people, be accommodating no mater what
6. the value of friendship- what it means when you utter those words. i never used to realize just how deep that word means.
7.Protect friendship... oooh boy you are good at that. if we were in school you would never let me be bullied
8. How to have someone's back through the good and the bad times YV i don't know what sort of breed you are
9 To be vulnerable hhahahahaha shat i regret this bit but you one emo chick
I took time to learn who you are only because you let me. and i found myself in the process of discovering who you are. am grateful for the day God brought us together i can stand and say i am a changed person because of you.
Am not perfect i have my own share of flaws but i always want to be there for you to help you when you need me even when you don't. Till we get married, have kids uma be there. I look forward to business meetings, vacations together, crazy spa days out..you mean that much to me.
