Love found, but lost, again


(Deviant Art Website)

I don’t think there would have been anyway I would have gotten her. At first I thought she was out of my league, but as I got to know her better, I realized we were meant to be. The first day I saw her was in class. It was the first day of the semester. I saw her come in, but was unable to see her face clearly. She sat right behind me, so close I saw her shoes from the corner of my eye. I loved her hairstyle (I love ladies with afros) and her shoes were kind of cute (Of course I was not concentrating on the shoes alone). Her perfume was out of this world. I could have smelt it for the rest of my life. I was ‘thirsty’ and I am not ashamed to admit it.

It took a while to get to know each other (thank you Lord for group work), but the more I saw her the more ‘thirsty’ I became. What made it worse was that we were compatible according to me. I thought she would treat me like a peasant, but she was kind and warm and she made it worse by smiling. I was still stuck up at the fact that she had a job and I didn’t. She was a director of her own company, organizing events and concerts. I was the director of a future company. However, I don’t think that was much of a concern to her.


I really feel bad. If anyone was going to be my destined wife, it would have been her. Maybe I waited too long. Maybe I enjoyed our conversations too much to ask her out. Maybe I was scared as I always am and messed it up. Some people may blame me for not being bold enough. It would not matter what status she was, as long as I loved her and she felt the same, then it would have never mattered. It mattered though, it mattered to me; because she was engaged to someone else.

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...

Long Way from home

(Photo Source: Common dreams website) Jadim is a refugee. That is what the international organizations call her. The country hosting her is expected to feed her, protect her and make sure she is comfortable until her home country has some amount of peace. She gets ‘aid’ in terms of food, clothes, a blanket and a shelter. She has a right to get them. Moreover she is now pregnant, so she is feeding for two people. She sees people coming in and out, she heard they are called donors. Every time she sees the stream of vehicles she has to ensure her shelter is clean and she puts on a smile. They are the ones responsible for her stay there and they need to feel they are doing something. It also means extra rations that day, so of course she will put on her best smile. Jadim has lived in the camp for 2 years now.  Despite  all the niceties mentioned above, she constantly feels she was better at home, but since she lost her husband and two children to the war, she decid...

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 ...
