Letter to my best friend

(All pictures courtesy of google.co.ke)

Hallo!

How are you?

I pray that you are well. It has been what? One and a half years since we last saw each other? Wow! How time flies huh? I am sorry it took this long. I had to take time and do a little bit of soul searching. I have been dealing with identity crisis. However, that is not the point; the point is I am sorry, sorry that I left you there without a response after you had revealed yourself to me.

It is no excuse, but I was confused. I have never been in such a situation and I was not sure how to react. I was shocked, at first. I never knew you felt that way. I always saw you as a best friend. A sister I never had.

I still do not have a response for you.

Truth is when I first met you I had feelings for you, but I was scared that you did not feel the same way. You made me feel cold when you talked to me, hugged me and our general interaction was stale. Unfortunately, I lost interest and began to see you as a sister a confidant and a best friend.

We had so many good times together, talking about life, laughing at my dry jokes, helping each other when one of us was down or facing a problem> I do not take all of that and you for granted. I appreciate every moment we have shared.

I humbly ask that we continue being friends. We still have a lot in common, but I had made up mind before and I feel this is the best way. Please do not stop being my friend that is something I really treasure. I am not rejecting your offer; I am kindly asking you to please forgive me that I have to turn it down.

Yours sincerely,

A best friend for life.

It is my child

(all photos taken from google.co.ke) (www.clipartbest.com) Gerald is seated sipping his drink slowly. He is admiring the house, trying to remember the many graceful memories he has had the past two year. However, it is time to call it quits. He has to move on, somehow. Sally comes in and seats besides him and notices something is off. “What is wrong Gerald?” Gerald breathes in and out. He picks up three papers from the table and hands them to Sally. “We need to talk Sally.” He looks at her trying to be as gentle as possible. “I am sorry Sally. It is over between us. I need to go take care of my baby.” There is a brief pause. “Ati, what? What did you just say Gerald? Am hearing you right? You want to leave me? Why?” Gerald can see she is becoming hysterical. He was not sure how to break it to her, but he felt telling it to her face would have been easier, how wrong he was. “It’s Milly. She was pregnant when I left her and now she has my son; one year old...

It's nothing new

(Bully Fanon website) It is quite a shame that Alliance has to be in the news for the wrong reasons. Usually they are in it, shouting and praising the form fours who had left the previous year for the ‘ A ’ s they brought to the school. To some it is a new phenomenon that students are beating students, but to me it is not. I went to a so called ‘ bush ’ high school. It is however famous in the part of the county it hails from. Here, beating of students by fellow students was a common thing during my time. It was almost routine. To make it worse, once you were beaten by the prefects they took you to the teachers who also beat you. Of course they were not using sticks only to beat their fellow students, but anything they found. Those who were forwarded to the teachers were usually those who had resisted the beating. The teachers also found out that sticks were ineffective and felt the need to use their fists to correct the errors of the student. I am not writing th...

Men, we need to wake up

(all photos courtesy of Google). The world is evolving. Time is changing. Women are gaining power. Men are seated, watching, waiting for their turn. In the 90s and early 2000s all campaigns were directed at ‘empowering the women’ Do not get me wrong, women were mistreated and suffered under the tyranny of men and their egos. UNICEF created the International Day of the Girl to help end the circle of violence against adolescent girls. It is celebrated on the 11 th of October annually. Education was the major concern and center of debates, and the United Nations felt that it had serious impacts on human and economic aspects of society. Girls worldwide were forced to cook, clean and do other house hold chores while their male siblings went to school and received care and attention from parents. Girls were seen as a curse while boys were seen as a blessing. Men felt proud having a boy while mistreating the poor mother for having a girl. Something needed to ...
