Embrace the Absurdity of Life

-

 

Embrace the absurdity of life with a hearty dose of humor. Laughter, after all, is the best medicine for the soul. As Mark Twain famously said, "The human race has only one really effective weapon, and that is laughter." So, don't take yourself too seriously—learn to laugh at life's quirks and foibles, and you'll find that even the darkest moments can be illuminated by humor.


Pursue your passions with unwavering determination. Whether it's traveling the world, starting a business, or pursuing a creative endeavor, follow your heart and chase your dreams with gusto. As Maya Angelou once said, "You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you." Your passions are the fuel that will drive your narrative forward, propelling you towards greatness.


Cherish the relationships that enrich your story. Surround yourself with people who lift you up, who inspire you to be the best version of yourself. As Oprah Winfrey wisely observed, "Surround yourself with only people who are going to lift you higher." These are the characters who will shape your story, adding depth and richness to the narrative of your life.


You don't need to be a world leader or a famous figure to craft a compelling narrative. Each of us has the ability to lead a life worth remembering, filled with laughter, love, and purpose. So, how do we ensure that our story leaves a lasting impact?


Soul search, you’ll get the answer you might already know!

Why Don’t Government Officials Ever Mix with Ordinary Kenyans?

-
The chasm between government officials and ordinary citizens has never been more apparent. Our leaders often seem removed from the daily challenges faced by millions of Kenyans, seemingly shielded in a bubble of privilege that prevents them from experiencing the realities of life in Kenya. This disconnection isn’t just a symbolic issue—it has profound implications on how policies are crafted and implemented, leading to decisions that feel foreign and irrelevant to the people. One striking example is the travel experience of government officials. While the average Kenyan endures long waits, crowded terminals, and substandard facilities at the airport, government officials are driven directly to and from planes, escorted to VIP lounges, and handled with special treatment that most Kenyans never see. These leaders are shielded from the realities of our airports—delayed flights, frustrating security checks, and a lack of essential services. In their separate world, they don’t encounter the...

The most important qualification for office is INTEGRITY

-

  Fellow Kenyans, as we strive toward Vision 2030, I believe the most important qualification for anyone in public office is integrity. It’s not grades, tribe, money, or tailored suits that will push us forward; it’s the moral backbone to serve honestly, transparently, and responsibly. Without integrity, no amount of academic excellence, wealth, or charisma can create the genuine progress Kenya needs. We’ve seen the effects of placing the wrong priorities in leadership time and time again, with resources misused, promises broken, and an endless cycle of corruption that drains both the economy and our collective spirit. When I look at the state of our nation, it becomes clear that without integrity, the ideals of Vision 2030 are in jeopardy. Public office is a role of trust, where leaders are supposed to protect our resources and make decisions that benefit all Kenyans. But how often has this trust been betrayed? How often have leaders put their personal interests above the nation’s...

A Year of Mockery: Kenya’s Lost Mandate and the Rising Tide of Resistance

-
  A Year of Silence, Now Broken This very government had twelve months of uninterrupted grace. An entire revolution of the earth around the sun! They had time. They had resources. They had power. And most of all—they had the mandate of the people . And what did they do with it? They mocked us. With suits and speeches. With fake numbers. With promises they never intended to keep. And as the days passed, they mocked us not only with words—but with policies that emptied our pockets, raided our future, and left millions to suffer in silence. But the silence is over. A Grace Period Squandered When the new regime took office, Kenyans—tired of past betrayals—chose hope once more. Many gave them the benefit of doubt. After all, they spoke our language. They quoted scripture. They came from humble beginnings. They promised a hustler nation where everyone had a seat at the table. Twelve months later, the only people sitting at the table are the same ones who always have. And they’r...
