Yeah we have come to the end of that one month in Kenya’s
history that every grown person will live to recall.
It’s been
given names I know.Well,for me
too….there was my share of craziness.It’s
the month in which studies in my final year of undergraduate reached the
pic.Yeah those times you just cant afford to miss a class.Lest a Cat is forth
and you act as if you were just dropped from a planet where life does not
exist.
It is the month that made me wish the year could
just stop so that I get to deal with all the resolutions I set in my little
mind when I was engulfed with the joy of new year on that new year’s eve.
It’s the month politicians chose to turn parliament
into a love circle,well that should be right I suppose.I bet you can all recall
how one Millie Odhiambo,in the middle of an important motion chose to declare
her love for one guy she describes as handsome,intelligent and flawless.You
probably wondering who that is….its one Aden Duale.The guy is arrogant….the
reaction to the issue???but am glad he did give her the benefit of admitting
she’s beautiful,and that was just it.
Ok,it aint for Millie only that a cloud of some
crazy illusion on love seemed to work.I too had an encounter of some guy,you
don’t want to know how we got to know each other.Well after 5days,he was
madly,sickly,irrevocably in love with me and was ready to marry me.Did I
mention that all that time we hadn’t met?yes we hadn’t…and there he was
proposing marriage.I mean my life couldn’t get any worse.
And I am working on my music career,well then I come
across this group of people that believe if you want to get a heartache,just
date a musician.Come on guys,I am not a heartbreaker in the making!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah it’s that month I was so psyched up for a trip
to the coastal town…..thanks to the height of fake promises.I never got to
leave school for Pwani.But well life goes on…I got over it and embarked on some
serious stuff…like gather material for
my research project.
The other thing I got to learn is we all work to
show others how good we are.Nobody wants people to have the idea of they are
bad.They might be but none can accept yet…you make mistakes,you know you’re
wrong but still you go out of your way trying to show why you’re not.Remember one
of the terrosists in the Westgate siege tried to convince a 2yr old boy that he
wasn’t a bad man?Well it is all in making it up to the other person.It haunts
to know someone thinks you’re bad.Simple, why don’t you just do the right thing
once and for all?
You thought im done,well here is another thing that
wont go unmentioned,this is the month a fire broke out at the JKIA,the main
airport in the country.And that came barely a week after the port had ran out
of jet and flights had to be cancelled.Remember that is not some airstrip in
BARAGOI???????????????
And just when we were about to forget this weird
happenings in the country?the attack on one of the biggest malls in the capital
came.Ok was it curse?And as expected..the whole thing has turned into a blame
game.Commissions of inquiry have to be set to probe the issue just like it was
with JKIA.Anyway may the souls of those who passed on rest in peace.
There’s much I can say about September but well I
got to plan how I’ll make October a better one in my life.
For you too,you will hurt,I will hurt,Kenya will but
in the end there will be beauty in all our scars.
Remember it hurts when it heals too,smile because if
you ask me,il say you deserve to.Someone also tells me the difference between
your struggles and opportunity is your attitude,stay positive and you will be
surprised how well everything turns out.Ok I got to stop there before I turn
into an ” inspirationist”.HAPPY OCTOBER GOOD PEOPLE! Remember
you only live once,but if you live it right,that once
is always enough.God bless you.
