Apparently, in less than three months, our country has been struck by one type of disaster after another, with pounding severity.

At least, the fire disasters that stole the souls of our dearly loved brothers and sisters have now ceased in both severity and frequency and it is a good thing.

The other major problem nowadays is hunger at different parts of the country and stories of truly hungry Kenyans especially in Turkana districts are appearing on the media every single day.

It is even becoming embarrassingly obvious that because they have got nothing to eat, wild fruits that are to the extreme, poisonous, have become their everyday source of food. Read more »

There is a nice book I read about overcoming the cursed life, written by a man of God from Uganda and based on the bible.

This really got me interested on finding out more on this topic of curses and how it brings about empowerment to fail and being incapable of succeeding in life.

I talked with a close friend of mine on the same and he actually emphasized on the generational curses.

As you and I know about the naming styles of many tribes of this country, a child is named after a particular person to ensure the specific line carrying that identity will never end.

The generational curses whose source may be from an angry soul that departed ages ago can keep plaguing all the people given its identity thus the mysterious happenings in some so-called cursed lives. Read more »

Apart from a small percentage of Kenyans who grew up in the city, the rest are aware of the energy problems experienced by rural communities.

Also some of those near the city or towns may not understand what it is like to live far from civilization.

How often do you find another Kenyan man or woman willing to listen to your circumstances and offer an unreserved emotional support?

I do not know what your answer is to this but given the current nature of our beautiful country right now, in the year 2009, such kenyans affording time for advice or care for others are rare.

People are busy trying to make an extra coin in whichever way they can so as to survive the inflated cost of living.

Somewhere in Nairobi city, I found someone with a snake show and I almost lost my breath on the shocking sight of him caressing its huge body and tail with its head hidden in a big carton (mobile home). Read more »

The 44th President of the United states of America, the first black man to be sworn in for decades, who is also an African and the president of the whole world!.

When I write this statement I tremble, before the Lord God Almighty, for the big things that He can do. From ordinary to the greatest, President Barack Obama now proudly holds an authority no other man has ever received, direct from God. What God can do no man can do!

With confidence he says and admits that America is in deep crisis but confirms and gives hope that he will turn things around. ‘Yes we can’ turns to ‘Yes we will’. Let’s all back him up and build America, Kenya, and the whole world. Read more »
