Yes those descreet quiet and chini ya maji marriages that 90% of married Kenyans started at. Only signing the certificate after the 3rd child is grown, when all your beautiful bits have succumbed to gravity. And you are used to each other stinky morning breaths. And have started to look alike.( Why do long term couples look alike by the way?) Yes that time when Hakuna sponsor ataingilia kati since the only other person who can celebrate your inner beauty is this baba watoto looking like kûiguîrwo Tha... Baaaas that is when you do that bigass wedding and go to Dubai to photograph camels and print T-shirts and ...hmmm I wonder what +20 years married do on their honeymoon. Read the Bible perhaps. Yieks

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby.

Even during our dinner...

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life.

Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...
