Touch A Life

 

Someone once said 'You are not too poor to give neither are you too Rich to Receive' 

Ooh yes Christmas is on Friday, and with all we have gone through this year, Christmas may not be exciting for everyone. Ooh yes it's been a tough year and a lot has happened in the lives of people.

Some lost their Jobs, closed business or were even forced to relocate back to the Village. For them who have nothing there is nothing to look forward to this festive season. Then there are those in Children homes or abandoned they do not know what it means to have a family during the festive seasons they are used to being alone.

We all seem to be busy with our lives, not being mindful of our brothers and sisters. Humanity has become so self centered all we hear these days is Me, Myself and I. And there is need to break this mentality. 

And so this Christmas season make a difference in another person's life. Its the little things that count and matter even if it means buying just one packet of Flour for a family just what is within your means.

You know every Sunday when we were kids and we would go to Church my Mum would tell us that during offertory what we give with our right hand even our left hand should not know about. So as you plan to be a blessing to another person's life the world doesn't need to know about it because God sees and rewards every good deed done in the Secret.

It is the Season of Giving, putting a smile in someone's life.

    So true.
    According to Robert Ingersoll, an American author, "We rise by lifting others."

Street Protests (Kenya); Is It The Solution?

Image
As I begin to write this blog the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya is Hon Rigathi Gachagua aka Riggy G the truthful Man. Last year the month May was an interesting month for our beloved Nation. And will definitely be worth being noted down in the history books. Gen Z (these are children born between 1997 to 2012) organized a street protests to reject a Finance Bill & demand better governance & Accountability. Let me tell you Maina(A Kenyan Phrase) Gen Z is a powerhouse. They are Tribeless, Fearless & Leaderless. Being Leaderless could mean no one time will meetings be called & comprise takes place. We have witnessed how in the past leaders have been compromised and end up singing or dancing to the tune of the oppresor. According to Article 37 of the Kenyan Constitution every person has the right, peaceably and unarmed to assemble, to demonstrate, to picket, and to present petitions to the public authorities.  Protests sadly are not a new thing in Kenya...

The Power of A Story.

Image
As I begin to write this blog I am reminded of the song,   This is My Story. This Is My Song.  I remember when my brother passed on. My mum and sister sat down and drafted my late brother's eulogy. I mean we have all gone to funerals and heard people's eulogies being read. But that is simply not their full story. Its just a fraction of the person's life and it has been written by another person it simply not first hand narration. The eulogies only focus on the positive side of the person's life. They don't write about the struggles, challenges, the bad or the ugly.  I remember one time during a seminar the facilitator gave us a task of writing our eulogies. Like what do we want people to hear on that day about us. A story is a full account of someone's life. It captures the places they have been, the people they have met, what they have achieved, their high & low moments. Their experiences in the various seasons they went through in life. How they navigated ...

Diversity In Culture.

Ps 133:1 - '' How good & Pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity .'' Fact - According to ChatGpt (our go to person 😅)there are 43 tribes in Kenya.  Each tribe has its own language, customs, traditional clothing, and beliefs , contributing to Kenya’s rich cultural diversity.  I remember when I was pursuing my International Baccalaureate Studies(IBS). This is a two year Post High School Course that enables students to go abroad for their University studies. You see while I was in High School I had a dream of going outside the country for my university studies. My choices were the UK or South Africa. And I remember one evening after my classes my dad came to pick me from school. I noticed by Late Brother Nathaniel (may he continue to Rest In Perfect Peace 😭😭) was not in the car. And immediately I entered the car my dad told me that he picked Nathaniel from school earlier on because he was caught in a fight with another boy. My dad told me that th...
