The truth is..

If you were to ask what the terrorists were fighting for, their normal answer is, they are fighting for Islam. They are engaged in a Holy War, Jihad, against enemies of their religion. They will continue fighting until their symbolic black flag is raised all over the world and Sheria law is being followed.
These religious fighters take their Kalashnikovs and shoot randomly at people they do not know, people having tea, sleeping in their hostels, partying at a concert, praying at a church, watching television in public, people minding their own business.

We all look at them and think they are inhumane. Well, they are just human. Why do I say this? We are always ready to point a finger, but we have not asked ourselves what is the cause of fighting in the world? Why are blacks being mistreated in America? Why are Africans killing other Africans? Why are terrorists killing other people? Why is there is so much violence and death? Why today? Why are people clearing forests and endangering wildlife like the rhinos and the gorillas?

The first thing would be, blame the media. That I have already tackled in my previous post.

2nd blame it on the leaders. True, blame it on them, but they are not the cause. We have democracy and the power to choose them. Therefore, it is on us.

Blame us? No. Then who should we blame?

Limited Resources.


We keep on increasing in number, putting pressure on the earth. Our resources get depleted and they cannot be replenished. Look at the all countries in turmoil;

        I.            Libya-Petroleum, Natural Gas and Gypsum.
      II.            Somalia-Uranium, Iron, Ore, Tin, Gypsum, Bauxite, Copper, Salt, Natural Gas, Sugar Cane, and
Charcoal
   III.            The Congo-Copper, Gold, Diamonds, Cobalt, Uranium, Coltan and Oil
    IV.            Syria-Crude Oils and Natural Gas Reserves.
      V.            Iraq-Petroleum and Natural Gas.
    VI.            Lebanon-Limestone, Iron Ore and Salt.

This is just of the few countries currently engaged in war. We cannot do anything to increase resources. We can only manage how to use them. The terrorists are fighting for resources, thieves are killing for resources, our leaders are trying to accumulate as much of the resources for themselves as they can, children are killing their parents to have the power to control these resources, and nations are fighting against themselves, because of resources.

I fear for my children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and further on because they might come into the world where war is the order of day or there is nothing in this world for them.
The innocent people killed in Paris were victims, because ISIL were angry the French government was attacking them and the natural resource they have accumulated in Iraq and Syria. ISIL is selling the petroleum they are mining in these two countries. They are trying to pressurize the French government to stop encroaching in their business.

The 127 and more lives lost will never be forgotten. Even if we forget them, God will not. For every action we do as humans, there are always consequences.

I stand with France at this time. I stand with the people of Nigeria and the Western part of Africa as the fight with the Boko Haram. I stand with the people of Mexico as they try to survive the Hurricane. I stand with Somalia as they try to form a democratic national government. I stand with my homeland Kenya as we fight corruption and try and reduce the international perception about us. I stand with people of the world who want justice, peace and to work for good of all humanity.

Why an antagonist is important to a story

  (Made on Canva) Who is an antagonist? An antagonist is the villain of a story. It can be a human being, a natural phenomenon like a hurricane, a disease, an animal, an idea or a fictional character like a dinosaur. The aim of the antagonist is to create chaos and wreak havoc while creating obstacles for the protagonist (hero). The protagonist has to find a solution to the uncomfortable situation caused by the antagonist. In story-telling, the antagonist propels the story forward by creating an inciting incident that forces the protagonist to go on a journey to remedy the situation and restore balance. In the Dark Knight (2008), the Joker creates chaotic situations in the city of Gotham with the aim of killing the Batman. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thanos is looking for rings that will give him ultimate power and make him the supreme being of the universe. Why are antagonists not popular? Being an antagonist is not very appealing, especially in the acting business b...

I LOVE DUBSTEP!!!

(NB: ALL PHOTOS COURTESY OF GOOGLE & VIDEOS FROM YOU TUBE) The truth is I do not know why I love dubstep.  Whenever I listen to a dubstep song I want to stand up and dance. I was introduced to dubstep by a friend called Kibui. He came up to me and asked me to listen to UKF (A Dubstep recording group). It was 'love at first sound'. I could not get the song out of my head and from then on I became a huge dubstep fan. I have been listening to dubstep ever since the beginning of 2012 and I have been able to collect and listen more than 1000 dubstep songs. I created a specific folder for them. My favorite dubstep song is Crave you by Flight Facilities (Adventure's club remix). The reason I love it is because of its beats and it always uplifts me whenever am having a bad day or the lecturer has given me a tough assignment and it’s due the next day. I know some of you are wondering what is dubstep? Well I will give you the definition and a brief history. Ac...

In search of humanity

(Ask Ideas website) The world, to me, has become a depressing world. It would seem we have lost our humanity. I know I have circled around this topic, but to me it is important to repeat it as much as possible. The reason I am writing this is because there are people who feel they have no meaning in this life. I went out for coffee with a good friend of mine, a brother, when we left we met a street child rummaging through a dustbin in the cold Nairobi streets. I felt sorry for the boy and decided to assist him with some of my coins. I tapped on his back and he almost jumped. He started running and I called him back and gave him the coins. We were shocked at his reaction. We tried to guess why he ran. He must have thought it was the police who wanted to hit him for ‘being on the streets’; a shop owner angry that he is going through the trash can with a possibility of dropping the trash on the shop door; he must have thought it was the county askaris wanting to beat him for...
