Dreams in Pastel, Reality in Grit

Hey internet void,

Ever feel like you were born with rose-colored glasses permanently glued to your face? Like your childhood was a kaleidoscope of laughter and sunshine, and adulthood hit you like a bucket of cold, hard reality?

That's me right now. I spent years spinning daydreams of a life painted in pastel hues, fluffy clouds on a permanent setting of "easy." But the real world? It's more like a jagged mountain range, with unexpected storms and paths that test your very core.

The worst part is the constant sense of disappointment. The feeling of being cheated out of the fairy tale I so meticulously constructed in my head. Where's the happily-ever-after with its velvet carpets and endless laughter?

But maybe, just maybe, this rugged landscape holds a different kind of beauty. Maybe the calloused hands I'm developing are meant to build, to shape my own destiny, to leave a mark on the world.

Maybe the unexpected storms are meant to reveal a hidden strength, a resilience I never knew I possessed. Here's to learning to appreciate the beauty in the grit, the strength that comes from overcoming obstacles, and the courage to write my own story, plot twists and all.

Maybe this life won't be a fairy tale, but a grand adventure, one that will leave me with a heart full of stories etched not in soft pastels but in the vibrant hues of experience.

Our Maasai Warrior Collection is a nod to the nomadic nature of the tribe which inhabits mainly Kenya and Tanzania. We wanted to pay homage to its distinct attributes while bringing a flair of modernity. The Maasai traditionally use these fabrics as blankets and clothing. We attempted something different. We used fabric purchased directly from the Maasai people in the market and gave it a new purpose in our Love You Back Tote. #maasai #collectibles #houseoftakura . . . #inspiredbyafrica #africainspired #africanprint #travelbags #madeinafrica #africanaccessories #madeinkenya #iwearafrican #culturedluxury #africandiaspora #ethicalfashion #africanluxury #nomads #africanfashion #challengingthenarrative #afrochella #rewritingthescript #traveltote #empowerthefuture #bags #afrochic (at Nairobi, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwE1rwslz_O/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wpimgtrnwjma
