In Love With an Unbeliever

I once had directed to me, some unkind and what I consider misguided comments by someone who ridiculed my articles on Relationships. His concern was not on the quality of my work or literary skills, instead, he had a few misgivings with the subject. He felt that a relationship was not a very important matter and that I could instead focus my efforts on other things like employment, academic research, and many more ‘scholarly subjects’. My ambitious friend and colleague in the global fraternity, like all aspiring trailblazers, felt like relationships were not an important matter. What about you?

Weeks When Decades Happens

The week ending 12th of March, 2022, is one of those weeks that can be defined in the words of Vladimir Ilich Lenin, “There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks when decades happen.” A lot has happened and we must learn something from all these happenings seeking our attention. I don’t want […]

I Tried Another Way

I tried another way,Other than ‘Trust and Obey’Recklessly refusing to heed the voice of love,Sweetly reminding me that there is no other way to be happy in Jesus,Outside the path marked ‘Trust bad Obey’So I took the Nearest diversion to the left and increased my pace,Seeking to take gigantic gulps of whatever there was on […]

A Woman Called Somebody

Her life had taken a downward pedestal,It seems like she was losing her hold on life,If her life depended on apothecary she had exhausted them,For some reason, her condition outmanoeuvred even the balsam,Even if she heard that there was some physician Somewhere,She couldn’t afford it,Her issue had milked her dry of her substance,She was sickly […]

A KENYA WITHOUT RAILA AND RUTO

Kenya has had a lot to face in the wake of its democratisation journey, especially after the second liberation. Presumably, under the democratic process where the leader with majority votes carries the day, we are still not so sure if this is real. There is a vast majority who believe that the system, the so-called deep state, has an influence on who carries the day. However, I believe that the ballot is stronger than the bullet.

Swimming out of the Pool of Unemployment

If you sack Jose Mourinho today, the following day another giant club will announce him as the new manager. Larry Madowo gets out of BBC North America, and he is working with CNN Africa. These cases look too good to be true. The secret is not in the said organizations, but in the individuals—they have something to offer that you don’t easily come across.

If I Had a Chance to Preach in a Funeral

If I had a chance to preach in a funeral,I would ignore the dead,Not because of disrespect,But because my most tantalising articulations are too late for them,If they were my friends,I would tell everyone who care to listen,The precious memories we shared with them,I would speak as much as I can remember of their goodness,Any […]

What You Need to Consider Before You Decide on Your Career Path

A choice of career is a very important decision that will affect your life as long as you’re alive. It is one of the most important choices you have to make in your life since it will be part of you forever unless you decide to drop it along the way. Choosing a career is akin to making a choice of marriage partner. Whereas in making a marriage decision, you can make a wrong choice, there is no wrong choice of a career, but you may do well and be more impactful in one career than in another. It is therefore very important that you fit well in a career path that will help you be more impactful and that can afford you a space at a round table with the high and mighty. You don’t need to go through the pains of dropping out of a career as many do, after investing a lot of time. However, if you realise you’re in the wrong career, there is no harm in getting to your best still. It is never too late to jump out of a “wrong” career.

Harnessing Strength: The Importance of Direction

Whatever you are so good in, the direction is important. You must pull in the right direction and with the rest. You could be radiating the most solemn basso profundo with stable resonance and captivating timbre, but when you don’t harmonize with the rest, you can be so annoying and boring. A Skilled athlete who does not follow the pattern of the team is wasteful and will attract the wrath of the fans. There is beauty in being orderly and manageable.
