Seeing your friends making big moves, settling down, getting financially stable and buying that dream car. All this while you're flat out broke, unsure about your next meal, and your only 'hope' of ever making big money is if you miraculously win the Jackpot. Sad.
People hate to admit it but there is a deadline for that intense passionate “chaotic” love. After a certain age you approach everything through the lens of logic. You cannot afford to love the way you loved at 22 at 30
If you ever doubted why this regime has to go home, you should listen to this interview with Kimani Ichug’wah. It will sum up a solid reason.
Your lives don't matter to them.
The easiest person to take for granted in a relationship is an introverted man who overthinks everything, loves quietly, gives endlessly, and asks for almost nothing in return. He won't demand attention, start arguments, or make you feel guilty for neglecting him. Instead, he'll convince himself you're busy, excuse your behavior, and keep pouring into the relationship while expecting only honesty, consistency, and a little reassurance. But every unanswered effort, every broken promise, and every moment of feeling unseen gets stored away. By the time he finally becomes distant, it isn't because he stopped loving you, it's because he spent too long loving someone who never realized how much he was silently giving.
“How do I get my toddler to stop hitting? 😩😩”
You snatch them by the wrist mid swing the very first time they ever try and you look them dead in the eyes and say NO.
Stop trying to philosophize with your 19 month old about how “hitting isn’t nice”
They cut down the acacia trees this week at Kenyatta National Hospital. The marabou storks that had nested there for decades didn’t have anywhere to go😭😭😭. Some died. Some got injured. All because nobody thought to check what was living in those branches first.
This is what happens when “development” skips the wildlife-sensitivity conversation entirely. Nairobi keeps growing, but does it have to keep growing over everything else that was already here?
Environmental assessments before tree removal shouldn’t be optional. They should be law am speaking for them, can someone hear me please 😭😭😭
I want girlies to know that in healthy relationships these are not conversations you’ll stress about. Kunamadoda out there that see go to the kitchen with dishes and follow you to help. Men that cook more than you. They exist.
Members of Parliament are openly confessing how they took bribes to undertake a constitutional process & yet nothing will happen to them. No inquiries. No investigations. Nothing. In fact, even journalists interviewing them are laughing about it like it is a joke. I give up!
That moment when you’re coughing in public and you’ve reached the appropriate social cough limit, now you just have to hold it in and choke to death.😞😭
