I am tired

(All photos courtesy of Google)



I am tired, extremely tired. I am officially tired. I have lost hope, I do not see anything or light or good. It has reached a point, I wake up in the morning and try as much as I can to avoid anything on our media. I don’t know if you are tired. Do you like what we are watching in the media? Is it entertaining to you? Maybe I am getting old. Don’t get me wrong I am not saying the media personnel are doing wrong, no, they are doing exactly what is expected of them. But, I wish they could spare me the politics.

On the 20th of October 2015, more than 150 minors were found a club. Drinking, in possession of ‘weed’ and having condoms. Condoms for what? Some of them were younger than my small sister. My sister is 12. A child of 9 years is at a club, drinking, and smoking and has condoms in his or her pockets. Did that sink in? A child of 9 (NINE) was caught at a club, in the evening after having stayed there since morning, drinking, smoking and having condoms in his or her pocket. Are you tired yet?



UNEP with its headquarters located in our country has had the misfortune of one of their employees using his title to receive immunity for using his wife as a boxing doll. This man went to the lady’s parents and asked for their permission to marry her (I am speculating here) so that he can go beat her as much as he wants because he is a diplomat. Being a diplomat has got to be the best job in the world. You can do whatever you want, and nothing will ever happen to you. That is the life.
Even writing this blog is making me tired. I don’t even want to touch on the political situation.


PLEASE NOTE: Any remarks made by a politician who comes from my background does not expressly mean I support or agree with their ideology. I do not choose tribe and love everyone equally. I will not harm a soul because of elections. We already passed through enough in 2007-2008, no more.

I am tired extremely tired, are you? There are some stories I won’t bother writing, I am just too tired. I don’t want to repeat it, because I will spread my tiredness to you.


Maybe, just maybe if I sleep, tomorrow will be fine? Maybe things will be different? Maybe I will stop being tired? Maybe I am old?

Blame the media?

(All photos courtesy of google.co.ke) Ever since 2013, the world has been taking a spiral downfall to an abyss of where children as young as 12 to 13 years of age are drinking alcohol, men are becoming useless and full time drinkers of alcohol, girls are growing up wanting to be socialites, racism is still prevalent, terrorism, social media vices, and general pollution of morals and values. This is according to my opinion and experiences. To me, this generation is lost and we need a revolution to wake us up. In my home country looks to me as the worst hit. We are all fighting illegal and second generation alcohol, and yet on Monday night clubs are open in Nairobi and people are drinking till the next Monday. Promotions and events are being held by alcoholic making companies and nobody is asking how they affect us. An event was cancelled because there was no alcoholic drink. I believe if we were to look at the budgets of people, almost 60 percent is going to alcohol, which ...

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...

Thank You

You know it is always very easy to take things for granted because we never know what we have until it’s gone. That must be one of the most cliché lines you will ever read. However, it is very important in this context. The main reason being, I want to say thank you. My life has not be relatively easy. I have gone through a lot of problems and I have the worst reactions to different situations. However, no matter how tough the challenge, in some way I have always come out of it, learned and moved forward. It is hard to explain, but I know it is because of people praying and wishing me well. People have told me that I am going to be great one day, and because of their support and love, I keep building myself with time. If you have followed my story, you will find that I have grown, thanks to the people I have met and interacted with. An example is high school. I used to fail my exams. My first term I was in the bottom 10. It was rough for me and it seemed like I was going ...
